 members to a class which she had previously organized, writes : 

 "The exceptionally attractive leaflets and pictures, to say nothing 

 of the pretty buttons, have awakened much interest in children 

 as yet outside of the Society. But behind the novelty I have 

 been interested to see that the idea of bird study and bird pro- 

 tection really appeals to the children."

 the Spruce Cottage School at Vineland, N. J., sends an attractive
