The Committee to which the editorial functions of The South African Ornithologists Union have been entrusted feels the greatest pleasure in the issue of this the first number of the Journal of the Society. It is sincerely hoped that this volume may be the precursor of a long series, useful alike to the student of South African Avifauna and to Ornithologists throughout the world. The object of the Journal is to promote and foster the study of a branch of science which, perhaps more than any other, combines pleasure and physical and mental exercise with practical and scientific utility. The only apology which it is felt must be made at this first issue is one which must be tendered not only by the Editorial Committee but by all South Africa — namely, that it is the first. W. L.
