NOTES AND CORRESPONDENCE. 



In addition to longer articles suitable for the body of the magazine, the 

 editor would be glad to receive brief memoranda of all noteworthy trips or 

 explorations, together with brief comment and suggestion on any topics of 

 general interest to the Club. Descriptive or narrative articles, or notes 

 concerning the animals, birds, forests, trails, geology, botany, etc., of the 

 mountains, zvill be acceptable. 



The office of the Sierra Club is at 2901 Channing Way, Berkeley, where 

 all the maps, photographs, and other records of the Club are kept, and 

 where members are welcome at any time. 



The Club would like to secure additional copies of those numbers of 

 the Sierra Club Bulletin which are noted on the back of the cover of this 

 number as being out of print, and we hope any member having extra 

 copies will send them to the Secretary.

Dear Sir: Your circular of loth received. May I offer you 

 the sincere sympathy of the S. M. C. in the loss of your records, 

 books, etc., and express the hope that the trouble you are experi- 

 encing will soon be in the past? 



If your copies of the S. M. C. Journal have been destroyed, 

 can we show our S5niipathy in a practical way by sending you 

 copies of those issues we have still in print? 



Kindly say, and mention what numbers you had, if possible.

 Secretary Sierra Club, San Francisco, 



Dear Sir: I have returned to town for a few days, before 

 leaving for the Continent, and find your Circular No, 31 amongst 

 my letters. 



I hasten to assure you of my entire sympathy. The Club has 

 been tried by fire, but it will, I hope and believe, emerge from 

 the ordeal stronger than before. 



If I can, by sending out copies of my own books, or can in any 

 other way assist in the restoration of your library, you have only 

 to command me. ^^^^^ ^^^^^^ 



W, E. Colby, Esq, EdWARD WhympER.
