od way to aid food-conservation. Several feeding-stations were kept constantly supphed with food last winter,and the State Game Commission helped us in this by donating $10 to the cause. We have had some good lectures this year, one by Samuel Scoville, Jr.,Staff NaturaHst of the Boy Scouts of Philadelphia and Counties; Rev. HerbertWestwood, of Mt. Airy, who used the Pennsylvania State Museum Slides; andDr. Joseph Kalbfus, Secretary of the State Game Commission, who used stuffedspecimens of our common birds to illustrate his interesting talk. In December,70 of us went to hear Ernest Harold Baynes, the founder of our Club, in hisever-interesting and impressive lecture on Wild Birds. At one meeting the entertainment was almost entirely by the Juniors.Their interest is a great source of encouragement to the Club. We feel thatespecially in these strenuous times the Bird Club gives a needed recreationand has another purpose than helping the birds.—Esther Heacock, Cor-responding Secretary.
