A CORRECTION 



Paul G. Howes advises us that the 

 word "Gulls" should supplant the 

 word "Terns" in his recent article on 

 "Results," in Volume XXXVIII, Page 

 138, of The Oologist. 



He also advises us that he sails for 

 three months in British Guiana, South 

 America, with William Beebe, Mrs. 

 Howes, and some others. — R. M. B
