 Journal is doing for the protection and encouragement of

 the people realize how closely related to the whole question of food 

 conservation is the matter of bird protection." 



Dr. William T. Hornaday, Director of the New- 

 York Zoological Park and Managing Director oi

 the editor of the Journal, said: 



"I am amazed and delighted at the success of your campaign for 

 Bird Sanctuaries. The work that has been accomplished is positively 

 thrilling and the results achieved far surpass my most sanguine ex- 

 pectations. In this brief note it is impossible to speak adequately 

 of the splendid achievement of The People's Home Jour- 

 nal. The figures will appeal to the dullest or most envious 

 mind."

 author of the Green Meadow Club stories, has 

 been a constant and indefatigable friend of Bird 

 Sanctuaries; his assistance is hereby gratefully
