 the beaver, and the large mammals of the Park. The original plans 

 presented to Roosevelt made provision for just such studies in our 

 National "Parks and Forests on the broadest possible basis. 



The Honorary Advisory Council 



In the plans for wild life research presented to Mr. Roosevelt 

 provision was made for an Honorary Advisory Council to assist in 

 their execution. After the Memorial Station had been established, 

 it was considered that this feature should be included in the present 

 Station plans. 



It was considered eminently appropriate that at this stage this 

 Council should include • only those who were close personally to 

 Roosevelt, or who had some special interest in promoting, research 

 on wild life.

 cil are:
