Whose Are They? 



We are in receipt of two unsigned 

 advertisements to the publication in 

 our classified book department, one ad- 

 vertising certain volumes of the old 

 O. & O., the other calling for back 

 numbers of Field & Forest, Random 

 Notes, etc. They became mislaid in 

 sorting our corespondence so that we 

 don't know what letter they came with. 

 Please write us. — Editor. 



OOLOGIST ADVERTISING RESULTS 



I have disposed of 47 volumes of 

 Books, the Typewriter, 16 sets of eggs 

 (in exchange) and numerous articles 

 that would fill a page. 



I have received as a result of insert- 

 ing a want add in THE OOLOGIST, 32 

 sets of eggs, innumerable Ornitholog- 

 ical and Oological Books and Pamph- 

 lets, 155 arrow and spear points and 

 25 miscellaneous Indian relics. 



Now if this isn't worth the price 

 paid for the insertion, kindly tell me 

 what is? 



1 received letters from Mexico to 

 England and for awhile, I was "sorry 

 that I spoke." 



Such good luck accompanied my 

 other add that 1 am sending you an- 

 other to run one issue and if there is 

 anything left of them I will notify you 

 in time to extend it.. I don't want an- 

 other such rain of inquiries if I can 

 help it. This isn't gush.. Everything 

 I have written above can be verified."
