"'HE Illinois Audubon Society recom- 

 * mends the organization of Junior 

 Audubon Societies under the auspices of the 

 National Association of Audubon Societies. 

 That Association desires to call your atten- 

 tion to the offer it is able to give this year 

 to teachers and pupils in helping them to 

 become better acquainted with our wild 

 bird population. 



The pupils will be given a new set of 

 ten Educational Leaflets, with colored pict- 

 ures and outline drawings for coloring with 

 crayons. In addition to the set of Leaflets, 

 we will give each member the beautiful new 

 Audubon button of the RED- WINGED 

 BLACKBIRD, which represents a badge of 

 membership in a Junior Audubon Class. 

 Each teacher who forms a class of twenty 

 or MORE receives a year's free subscrip- 

 tion to the well-known bird magazine, 

 "BIRD-LORE," the official organ of this 

 Association. 



As our birds are the protectors of our 

 crops, and so important to the successful 

 part we must now play in helping to feed 

 the people of the world, do you not think 

 it desirable for teachers to form classes said 

 teach the children the value of bird protec- 

 tion? If so, write to the Secretary of the 

 National Association of Audubon Societies, 

 1974 Broadway, New York City, for a 

 sample of the Educational Leaflets.
