V\TE wish all of the readers of The Oologist a Happy 

 and prosperous New Year. Our friends have stood 

 loyally by this little publication in the past and we have 

 appreciated and still appreciate that fact and take this occa- 

 sion to thank them for the same support, and to humbly re- 

 quest a continuance of the same. It is known to our friends 

 that the publication of this magazine is not a moneymaking 

 proposition on the part of the management, but purely a 

 labor of love, undertaken by a busy man, in order that the 

 ties of many years shall not be sundered. This being so, 

 we will be pleased to receive all that advice and assist- 

 ance with which our friends see fit to favor us. 



Put your shoulder to the wheel and each one of you get 

 a new subscriber for 1919, and help us make The Oologist 

 the best it has ever been. There should be a new awaken- 

 ing amongst collectors and students of the birds. 



— The Editor.
