ATTENTION PLEASE 



This Affects Every Member of the 

 Canadian Forestry Association 



Every recipient of this issue of 

 The Canadian Forestry 

 Journal is a member of the 

 Canadian Forestry Association. 



The Journal is the As- 

 sociation's hne of communica- 

 tion between the executive staff 

 and the fast-grow^ing member- 

 ship. But after all, The JOUR- 

 NAL IS only incidental to your 

 personal effort in the national 

 cause of forest conservation. To 

 you the publication may be 

 good company, but the real 

 spear head of constructive propa- 

 ganda is the Association itself, 

 its vigorous groups of members 

 in a thousand towns, its lecturers, 

 its successful campaigns to secure 

 better laws and administration, 

 its Railway Forestry Car; its 

 its motion pictures; its publicity 

 bureau. 



The Journal has its own worthy place, but 

 the power that performs actual aggressive 

 educational service is the organized member- 

 ship working through a small executive staff at 

 Ottawa. 



We cannot emphasize too strongly that the 

 Association is not a Government Department 

 or an appendage to any commercial body. It 

 represents Community Interest in forest con- 

 servation; it represents you as a Citizen. 



We take for granted, you'll stand by the As- 

 sociation in 1920. It ought to be the greatest 

 year in our history. Remarkably few men drop 

 membership from year to year. 



WHERE YOUR ANNUAL 



FEE GOES. 



The Forestry Journal used to be a 16-page 

 pamphlet. In those days the membership fee 

 of one dollar paid the printer and left a fine 

 surplus for the general work. 



To-day, the printer takes every penny of 

 your dollar fee for the paper and printing cost 

 of our present publication. .Advertising rev- 

 enues are negligible. We do nothing more 

 with the total of membership fees than to pay 

 publication costs. .And 1^20 paper and print- 

 ing prices will be even higher.
