Bird-Lore’s Advisory Council 
ITH some slight alterations, we reprint below the names and addresses 
of the ornithologists forming Brrp-Lore’s ‘Advisory Council,’ 
which were first published in Brrp-Lore for February, 1900. 
To those of our readers who are not familiar with the objects of the Council, 
we may state that it was formed for the purpose of placing students in direct 
communication with an authority on the bird-life of the region in which they 
live, to whom they might appeal for information and advice in the many diffi- 
culties which beset the isolated worker. 
The success of the plan during the nine years that it has been in operation 
fully equals our expectations; and from both students and members of the Council 
we have had very gratifying assurances of the happy results attending our efforts 
to bring the specialist in touch with those who appreciate the opportunity to 
avail themselves of his wider experience. ; 
It is requested that all letters of inquiry sent to members of the Council 
be accompanied by a stamped and addressed envelope for use in replying.
