Editorial 



It has not been possible to arrange for a meeting until after the 

 close of the summer. Arrangements will be made and announced 

 either in the September number or by letter. Keep it in mind. 



The absence of the Editor for the summer will probably neces- 

 sitate some delay in the appearance of the September Bulletin. 

 You can lessen the delay by sending in something for publication 

 at an early date. 



The editor leaves on June 26. He will have for his postoffice 

 until August 1, Kelleys Island, Ohio, to which address letters 

 should be directed. The occasion of tlie change of address is a 

 class of IS students, who go for an intimate study of the breeding 

 habits and summer distribution of birds, and for the study of 

 breeding environment of the species. This work will occupy the 

 first six weeks, and will be followed by a six weeks' study of the 

 southward migration movement over the same region, until near 

 the close of September, with a company of ten men. Please note 

 the cliange of address.
