ALTERATION TO RULES.


At a Meeting of the Council, which was held on Feb. 17th, the fol¬

lowing addition to the Rules was made:—“That each Member (not a

Dealer) be entitled to one advertisement, free of charge, each month, the

Editor to be sole judge as to whether such advertisement can and shall be

published or not, priority shall be given to those who apply first.”



MEMBERS’ PRIVATE SALE AND EXCHANGE COLUMN.


A very fine young pair Red-collared lorikeets, £4 10/-; also cocks: Rainbow

bunting, 35/- ; Indigo bunting, 30/-, in colour ; fine “All Green ” Tanager,

35/-; ail in good condition. Miss Peddie Waddell.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.



The summer meeting of the Council will take place, by kind

permission of the Zoological Society, in the Council Room, at 3 p.m.

on the fourth Thursday in June ( i.e. the 22nd). After which there

will be a meeting of the Members in the Gardens, when the Council

hope that as many as can possibly spare the time will come. It

affords an excellent opportunity of getting to know other bird-lovers;

and the exchange of ideas is good for us and for the pursuit of bird¬

keeping. It also shows interest in the Society to which you belong.


The fact that it is war time only makes it the more important

that we should all make a special effort to be present. Tea will be

provided in the Fellows’ enclosure at 4 o’clock, to which all members

are heartily invited.


Will any member not personally known to the Editor (or

Secretary) very kindly make themselves known to either or both,

and will they bear in mind that the Avicultural Society is a Society

for the exchange of ideas and the making of friends and not a species

of Bird-book club whose sole object is to publish a magazine.


We trust therefore that June 22nd, 1916, will not leave us—

the Council—disappointed. L. Lovell-Keays,


Hon. Business Secretary.


N.B.—The Editor and Secretary have a number of spare

admission tickets which they would gladly send to any member

intending to be present on application being made at Park Lodge,

East Hoathly, Sussex.
