THE FOREIGN BIRD CLUB. 
Notices to Members. 
Important: Almost simultaneously with this issue, members will 
receive a circular, appealing to them to make one big effort to wipe out the 
entire deficit, and put the Club on a sound financial basis. Once this is 
accomplished, our strength of membership assures us of a very prosperous 
and useful future. 
With the gladsome news of complete victory ushering in a new era 
in the world's history, let us, as a club, make ready for the coming 3'ear and 
any changes it may bring in its train, by clearing off the deficit and every 
other hindrance to progress. 
We ask that each member will give the circular their careful considera- 
tion and be as generous as they can. 
Uni'aid Subscription : There are some subscriptions still outstanding, 
and such mernbers have been notified of same ; will they kindly remit at once, 
so that our Hon. Treasurer may have the wherewithal to meet our liabilities ? 
OuH Mkmbership : During the war, which has happily now reached a 
victorious conclusion, we have lost many members who have fallen in battle 
on the various fighting fronts, and we urge all to make the Club, its Journal, 
and objects- known to all bird-keeners and those interested in bird-life. The 
closing down of the year is a specially good time for recruiting new members, 
and we trust all will make an effort to introduce at least one new member.
