place some circulars explaining the purpose of the

for this missionary work. There can be no possible 
objection to this method, which is employed by all 
kinds of respectable business concerns. The time of 
people who are interested in such work is generally of 
some value, and they cannot afford to spend two hours 
in carrying fifty cents to an out-of-the-way private 
residence. I know of a man in a large western city 
who had to write to New York for the address of his 
local Audubon Society. Leagues and associations for 
game, fish, and forest protection might employ similar 
methods. Gun stores and dealers in sportsmen’s goods 
will generally be found willing to receive dues and 
issue membership cards.
