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 noteworthy trips or explorations, 

 together with brief comments and suggestions on any topics of general interest to 

 the Club. Descriptive or narrative articles, or notes concerning the animals, birds, 

 fish, forests, trails, geology, botany, etc., of the mountains, will be acceptable. 



The office of the Sierra Club is Room 402 Mills Building, San Francisco, where 

 all Club members are welcome, and where all the maps, photographs, and other* 

 records of the Club are kept. 



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

 Club Bulletin which are noted in the list in this number as being out of print, 

 and we hope any member having extra copies will send them to the Secretary. 



A Letter from James Bryce. 



May 3, 1913. 



Dear Mr. Colby: 



Thank you for your kind words of greeting. It would have been 

 a great pleasure to meet you and your friends here had that been pos- 

 sible. We are off this morning for China and Japan. 



All best wishes for the Sierra Club and its members and its efforts to 

 save Nature. Please greet John Muir cordially for me. 



Very sincerely yours, 



James Bryce. 



[Editor's Note: The above came in response to an invitation to meet 

 the members of the Sierra Club at a reception.]
