3-2 Roosevelt Wild Life Bulletin 



The European members of the Council are : 



Viscount Grey, Falloden, England. Author of Fly-Fishing. A 

 close student of birds, whose story of his bird outing in the New 

 Forest with Roosevelt, as told in his essay on Recreation, will inspire 

 every outdoor enthusiast. 



Viscount Bryce, Forest Row, England. A close friend of Roose- 

 velt, and keenly appreciative of wild nature ; a sympathetic friend 

 of American institutions, and our most respected and cherished 

 European statesman. 



Sir Harry H. Johnston, Arundel. England. A keen admirer 

 of Roosevelt, a successful student of wild life, and a wilderness 

 explorer. 



Very hearty approval of the plans for the Station have come

 Station appeals to me strongly, both by the intrinsic interest of the 

 subject and by the fact of its being a memorial of one for whom I

invitation to be a member on its Honorary Council I 



should feel it both a pleasure and an honor to be associated with the 

 Memorial Station in any honorary capacity that you think suitable, 

 and I shall always be interested to hear of its progress and work."

" I cordially appreciate your invitation to become a member of 

 the Honorary Advisory Council proposed to be created, and as I 

 assume that membership thereof does not involve active duties, 

 which of course my residence in England would not permit me to 

 discharge. I have much pleasure in accepting the honor." He 

 further adds that he is in " hearty sympathy with the work described 

 [in publications sent to him] and with every plan for preserving 

 wild life and the untouched aspects of Nature. Theodore Roosevelt 

 did admirable work in that line, and I rejoice to learn that the 

 impetus is not declining." 



Sir Harry H. Johnston writes similarly: 



"I feel myself both honoured and gratified at being selected as 

 an Honorary Advisory Councilor of the Memorial to Theodore 

 Roosevelt's intense interest in the beauties and wonders of United
