"Enclosed find four dollars and sixty cents, Audubon dues, as 

 I have forty-six, out of forty-eight pupils." Ehiia F. Bidwell,

"Every member of my class is a member of the Audubon 

 Society. The class is a fourth grade and consists r>f thirty-one 

 girls. The children were delighted when they found that we had 

 every child an Audubon member. They have shown a great in- 

 terest in the birds. Almost every morning some of the children 

 have interesting stories to tell us about the different birds they 

 have seen around their homes. Others tell us about feeding the 

 birds before they leave for school. The children are looking for- 

 ward to having a picture of Audubon in the class room." Agnes 

 McLeod, Tenafly, N. J. 



"I have a class of fourth grade boys. There are thirty-one of 

 them in all, and we have an Audubon roll of one hundred per 

 cent. The boys have been very much interested in watching the 

 list grow from day to day. One of my boys wrote a little story 

 for our school paper, the 'Echo,' about how the b^rds protect the 

 trees from the coddling moth." Belle Hazlcton Clayton, Tenaflv.

 writes: "These are ninety per cent, of our class, and although the 

 other four have not joined, they advocate the protection of bird 

 life." Mabel E. Smith, Tenafly. N. J. 



"The children were delighted with their leaflets and pins, and I 



think that they will take a new interest in the birds. A number 



of the boys have already made bird houses." Dorothy Bengler, 

 Liberty Corner, N. J. 



"Our little meetings are now being held out-doors on the lawn. 

 Last week five or six of the older pupils asked permission to at- 

 tend our bird meetings. This request is most delightful to me. 

 The little class is deeply interested. We have found a 'new' bird 

 (i. e., new to us), the towhee. To prove our love and the 'bird' 

 atmosphere I wish to tell you that we are watching a mother robin 

 on her nest near by. She is becoming quite tame. I was fearful 

 for her life during the Saturdays and Sundays, but w^ith joy and 

 thanksgiving I found her still on her nest the past two Alondays. 

 so I feel encouraged. Last year there were several cruel bojs who 

 did many wrongs to the birds. This year they belong to our Club 

 and are 'protectors' of the birds, nests and eggs, and keen ob- 

 servers." Sara S. Rainear, New Brunswick. N. J. 



"Birds were the topic considered by all the sixth grades in 

 East Orange for art lessons during the month of April and first 

 part of Alay and you may be sure we all enjoyed the study very 

 much, particularly with the help of our leaflets. The children have 

 become so interested that they wish me to send for extra copies for 

 them. One of our boys has brought to our room fifty or more
