WE ARE LATE 



An attack of ptomaine poisoning followed by a vicious as- 

 sault from the flu, just at the time we usually make up The 

 Oologist, laid the editor by the heels and put him to bed for a 

 considerable time. 



This is the reason the June issue is late, however taking 

 into consideration the information concerning the price of 

 rare bird books, the wonderful article and illustrations relat- 

 ing to the nesting of the Pink Footed Goose, and the notes 

 from Lower California, North Dakota, Texas, California, New 

 Jersey, etc., we do not believe we have often put out a more 

 valuable issue of The Oologist. 



We have just received an unusually interesting contri- 

 bution relating to the Penguins of South Africa, accompanied 

 by three good photographs, but outside of this one article our 

 copy box, is really very low. — R. M. Barnes.
