Annual Meeting of the National 

 Association 



The third annual meeting of the Na- 

 tional Association of Audubon Societies 

 was held October 29, in the American 

 Museum of Natural History, New York 

 City. Members were present from Massa- 

 chusetts, Connecticut, New York, New 

 Jersey and North Carolina. 



The treasurer's report showed that the 

 income of the Society during the year had 

 been $17,978.53 and that the e.\pendi- 

 tures were $26,843.43, making a deficit 

 of $8,864.90. This condition arose from 



( 



the fact that legislative expenses were 

 very heavy during 'the past year, and it 

 was also necessary to help several of the 

 State Societies to carry on their local work. 

 Further, the Society received only six- 

 months' interest on its endowment fund, 

 as none of the investments of the Society 

 were made early enough in the year to 

 permit it to receive a full year's interest. 

 The Society now holds mortgages 

 amounting to $316,000 on six pieces of 

 New York City property. Each title is 

 guaranteed by a Title Guarantee Com- 

 pany. None of the loans exceeds two- 

 thirds of the appraised value; the said
