LETTER No. 2 



(This went to non-members through enclosure with No. 1 and a request that 

 it be mailed to a friend together with pledge and enclosed envelope 

 addressed to Mr. Sinclair.) 



To Friends of the Birds: 



The Massachusetts Audubon Society Local Committee is planning a 

 "Bird Festival" at the North High School, Friday, April 22nd, and asks you 

 to join them in supporting the Society so that with the co-operation of the 

 Natural History Society we may invite 1500 to 1800 children and bird lovers 

 to attend the Festival. 



The Society, formed to promote interest in our friends, the birds, needs 

 your support as an annual member. Fee Si. 00. Membership entitles you to 

 a monthly bulletin on birds and nature and aids bird protection, as our 

 Society has a strong influence on proper legislation. This dollar will also 

 give you a complimentary seat in the reserved section at the Bird Festival. 



A subscription of from $1.00 to $5.00 more will give you two additional 

 seats for each dollar and enable the Society to invite ten children beside. 

 This may seem like frenzied finance, but the committee consisting of: 



Charles L. Allen Maude S. Witter, Secretary 



Paul B. Morgan Harry R. Sinclair, Treas., 



expects it to work, and hopes to have a fund left over for other efforts in 

 behalf of the birds. 



The Audubon Bird Festival will be conducted by Winthrop Packard, 

 Secretary of the Massachusetts Audubon Society, who will present Moving 

 Pictures and Slides and give a talk you will enjoy. A whistler, Arthur E. 

 Wilson, will give marvellous imitations of bird songs. 



Will you not use the enclosed sheet for your subscription? 



Yours in behalf of the birds and the children.
