JOHN DYMOND, JR. 



We reproduce herewith the photograph of Mr. John 

 DjTuond, Jr., of Louisiana, one of the leading sportsmen 

 of that State. 



In 1908 Mr. Djuiond organized The Delta Duck Club, 

 located at the mouth of the Mississippi River, which club 

 possesses probably the finest game preserve and club 

 house of any club in the country, and by reason of the 

 excellent hunting results there obtained, has gained a 

 world-wide reputation. The membership of the club in- 

 cludes prominent sportsmen from the four comers of the 

 United States. The club has 100 members. 



The grounds of The Delta Duck Club comprise more 

 than 50,000 acres of made land at the delta of the Mis- 

 sissippi River, and there are more than 100 lakes and 

 ponds on this vast tract. 



Mr. Dymond has been prominent in securing legisla- 

 tion, both State and Federal, for the protection of our 

 wild migratory birds. He is the local counsel in the 

 State of Louisiana of the Rockefeller Foundation, which 

 has established in that State one of the largest refuges 

 for migratory birds. 



While originally from New York, by reason of his 

 long residence in the South, Mr. Dymond has become 

 a thorough Southerner.
