Description
Excerpt from The Journal of the South African Ornithologists Union, 1912, Vol. 8
With this, the concluding number of Volume VIII. we must express regret that more material has not been available. We are sure there must be more of our Members who have interesting information to communicate, if only they will do so.
It is not enough for Members, however keen, to take a mere personal interest in Ornithology. If they will not record the results of their observations for their brother Members, the "Union" is a Union in name only.
We are pleased to be able to state that the Transvaal Department of Education, as the result of representations by the S.A.O.U., have had coloured wall-pictures prepared of the more useful and interesting native birds, which it is hoped will soon appear in the schools. This cannot fail to be beneficial, as when the children are made familiar with the birds and their place in nature it will rouse interest in their feathered friends.
