32 Roosevelt Wild Life BuJletin 
The European meml^ers of the Council are: 
Viscount Grey, Falloden, England. Author of Fly-Fishing. A 
close student of birds, whose story of his bird outing in the New 
Forest with Roosevelt, as told in his essay on Recreation, will inspire 
every outdoor enthusiast. 
Viscount Bryce, Forest Row, England. A close friend of Roose- 
velt, and keenly appreciative of wild nature ; a sympathetic friend 
of American institutions, and our most respected and cherished 
European statesman. 
Sir Harry H. Johnston, Arundel, England. A keen admirer 
of Roosevelt, a successful student of wild life, and a wilderness 
explorer. 
Very hearty ap])roval of the plans for the Station have come

" The project for a Roosevelt Wild Life Forest Experiment 
Station ap])eals to me strongly, both by the intrinsic interest of the 
subject and by the fact of its being a memorial of one for whom I

invitation to be a member on its Honorary Council.. .... I 
should feel it both a pleasure and an honor to be associated with the 
Memorial Station in any honorary capacity that you think suitable, 
and I shall always be interested to hear of its progress and work." 
And Viscount Bryce writes : 
" I cordially appreciate your invitation to become a member of 
the Honorary Advisory Council proposed to be created, and as I 
assume that membership thereof does not involve active duties, 
which of course my residence in England would not permit me to 
discharge. I have much pleasure in accepting the honor." He 
further adds that he is in " hearty sympathy with the work described 
[in publications sent to him] and with every plan for preserving 
wild life and the untouched aspects of Nature. Theodore Roosevelt 
did admirable work in that line, and I rejoice to learn that the 
impetus is not declining." 
Sir Harry H. Johnston writes similarly: 
" I feel myself both honoured and gratified at being selected as 
an Honorary Advisory Councilor of the Memorial to Theodore 
Roosevelt's intense interest in the beauties and wonders of United
