THERE will undoubtedly be a very great revival of interest 

 in Oology following the publication of the new price list, 

 January 1, 1922. We wish each Oologist would select a likely 

 young man or boy in their territory and interest him in 

 THE OOLOGIST and in the New Price List. " Oology is due 

 for a boom in 1922. The great war is over and sources of 

 supply for specimens long closed are again open. Many 

 younger collectors are beginning again and a general renewal 

 of interest is apparent. Why not put your shoulder to the 

 wheel, dear reader? You cannot collect alone and exchange 

 with yourself. There are many deaths among Oologists. 

 Others grow old, and a few, very few, lose interest. The way 

 almost all eminent Ornithologists have begun is by collect- 

 ing birds' eggs. The young collector of today will some day 

 be in charge of the great collections in our Museums, with 

 a high scientific rank and a liberal salary. Do you want to 

 start one of your young friends on this road? — Editor.
