several prosecutions were made and convictions secured for the killing of wild 

 birds, with excellent effect on the irresponsible element that causes such des- 

 truction. And what is probably most important in the organization's work, it 

 has educated an unthinking public to a point where there is a protective thought 

 for the wild bird. — John H. Winters, President.

Brookline (Mass.) Bird Club. — The report of the Brookline Bird Club 

 for this year might well be a repetition of last year's work. Though the war has 

 stopped the proposed publishing of the work of the Club to date and drawn 

 very heavily upon the time and energy of the Directors, progress can be 

 reported in all lines of effort. 



The membership of the Club — nearly 600 — is the largest since the organiza- 

 tion came into existence. 



The lectures and 'round-table talks prove as popular as formerly, and much 

 information and instruction is obtained by those attending. This year, the 

 Directors are endeavoring to develop these meetings so that more members 

 will take an active part and become contributors to it, thus offering an 

 opportunity for questions and the relating of bits of interesting bird- 

 experiences.
