enforcing strict observance of the game laws of the state. 

 Every member is a special officer whose duty it is to preserve 

 the rights of the individual owner of property and to secure for 

 the birds and animals proper protection, in accordance with 

 their rights. 



They have built up a wonderfully successful local organiza- 

 tion, and are in a small way accomplishing for the vicinity 

 that which the Forestry association has made one of its duties 

 to accomplish for the whole state. It is necessary for this 

 association to aid the work of such local organization if our 

 efforts are to be successful. 



We hope that the members of the Camp Fire Club of Hutch- 

 inson will become members of the Forestry Association and 

 give us the benefit of their experience. Co-operation has been 

 suggested, and it is to be hoped that before another publication 

 of the North Woods, we will have something definite to report. 



The Audubon Society, although as yet only a small club 

 in Minnesota, has a very important work to do. Its mem- 

 bers are also the kind that belong in the Forestry association 

 and should be with us. We extend to them an invitation to 

 join our association.
