My dear Sir:

Please accept my thanks for a copy of the first publication of "Birds."
Please enter my name as a regular subscriber. It is one of the most
beautiful and interesting publications yet attempted in this direction.
It has other attractions in addition to its beauty, and it must win its
way to popular favor.

Wishing the handsome little magazine abundant prosperity,
I remain

Yours very respectfully,
[signature]
State Superintendent.
