Bird-Lore's Advisory Council 



WITH some slight alterations, we reprint below the names and addresses 

 of the ornithologists forming Bird-Loke's 'Advisory Council/ 

 which were first published in Bird-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 purf>ose of placing students in direct 

 communication with an authority on the bird-life of the region in which they 

 ]i\'e, 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 eighteen years that it has been in opera- 

 tion fully equals our expectations. 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 to members of the Council be 

 accompanied by a stamped and addressed envelope for use in replying.
