Our wardens have done good work; they secured the conviction of i6i violators of the game laws during the past year. We believe our game laws are being better observed each year. One of the most important branches of our work during the past year has been the organization of Junior Audubon Societies in the schools and among the Boy Scouts of the state. There were 132 of these societies organized last year, with a total membership of 2,925. A number of these schools held special Bird Day exercises, thereby interesting the entire community in the importance of the preservation of bird-life. We are always glad to cooperate with the National Association in this work. The Secretary has been active in giving lectures on bird-life all over the state. During the last year 134 such lectures were given, most of them being illustrated with charts, pictures, or stereopticon views. Not less than 10,000 people heard these lectures, and we believe many of them are now ready to give us their hearty A SAMPLE OF BIRD-BOXES MADE FROM CYPRESS KNEES.
