Contributions to the Park Improvement Fund will be welcome 

 either in the form of subscriptions or in the form of donations of 

 some of the larger buildings. Apart from the Lion House and 

 the Monkey House, hereinafter provided for, there are four large 

 and attractive buildings needed, namely : 



Antelope Plouse, 



The Large Bird House, 



The Administration Building, 



The Small ^lammal House. 



Either of these ])uildings would constitute an extremely at- 

 tractive single gift. 



No gift can be made to the City of New York of a more wel- 

 come character, or likely to give more pleasure and instruction 

 to great numbers of people, than a gift of one of these buildings, 

 and donors may rest assured that such buildings will be so well 

 filled and maintained as to render them a constant source of 

 pleasure to themselves.
