as literary naturalists. Among the contributors to Bird-Lore are 
John Burroughs Ernest Thompson Seton J. A. Allen 
Dr. Henry van Dyke Olive Thorne Miller William Brewster

cription. 
In addition to general descriptive articles, i Bird-Lore has departments “For 
Teachers anti Students, ’ wherein are are given useful hints in bird-study, and “For 
Young Observers,” designed to develop the love of birds inherent in all children.

and reports of the work of the Audubon Societies, make a magazine which no bird- 
lover can do without. 
Not less delightful and entertaining than the text are Bird-Lore's illustra- 
tions, which include actual photographs of the birds in their haunts, showing them 
at rest and in motion, brooding their eggs, or feeding their young, as w'ell as 
drawings. feature of the coming year will be a series of plates by Bruce Horsfall
