Williams, jun. (see article in next issue). Another good'exhibit 
was Mr. Edmund's Brown's Parrakeet.

LoiiiKEKTis AND LoKiEs: It was very disappointing that 
a special class Jor the /Brush-tongued Parrots met with so small 
a response — only two entries I If the class is to be retained 
it must meet with a better response in future.

Cerarn or Yellow-backed Lory (L. fla vo-joiUiatu.':) . 
A.S. Pakkots., Macaws and Cockatoos (five): Here 
again rarity received but little recognition. All the exhibits 
were in good form, but all have received previous notice in our 
pages.

Aisliy- fronted Amazon (C ocliroptera) . 
Common Named Waxbills, Etc. (22): I was pleased 
indeed to see so fine an entry, the best that has been seen 
for some years, and with one or two exceptions all in good 
form, some of them certainly the best seen of their kind.

kept, even if one does not go outside this group.
