NOTICES TO MEMBERS. 



It would appear that little interest was taken in the 

 question of Best Bird v. Most Points, and also that those who 

 wrote in its favour last month failed to see the necessity of 

 voting, consequently the figures are much smaller than they 

 would have been. 



In favour of Best Bird . . . . 4 



,, ,, Most Points .. ..2 



Majority for Best Bird .. ..2 



Signed, J. A. vSwan, Hon. Scrulineei. 



This will necessitate the revision of rules te granting of 

 Medals : such will be done, and after ratification by the 

 Council will be duly published. 



The Council have decided to open the Bird Market to non- 

 members, being of the opinion that the change will be a 

 general convenience. Will members kindly mention Bird 

 Notes when corresponding with advertisers 1 



Attention is drawn to the fact that the Certificates, re 

 Breeding results, will be granted from the accounts published 

 in the Magazine. The season is now drawing rapidly to a 

 close, and the Hon. Editor would be glad to receive accounts 

 of members' breeding successes. We would point out that 

 members should fully describe items of diet etc., when sending 

 accounts of their birds, thus adding greatly to their practical 

 utility and interest. 



Re the effort to increase our membership— If each member 

 would only send one of the leaflets " Objects of the Club" to 

 all interested in foreign birds, i:i their locality, we feel assured 

 this object would soon be attained.
