MATKA AND KOTIK - I903 - PREFACE - In the illustration of this little book, I am indebted to Assistant Secretary Charles S. HamIin, of the United States Treasury, and to Hon. John J. Brice, United States Fish Commissioner, for the use of photographs taken, for the various Bering Sea Commissions, by Mr. Charles H. Townsend, Dr. Barton W. Evermann... more », Dr. Leonhard Stejneger, and Mr. N. B. Miller. For certain photographs taken by Mr. Harry Chichester, I am indebted to the courtesy of Mr. Joseph Stanley-Brown. The drawings showing the life of the beach-masters were made by Miss Chloe Frances Lesley, a student in Zoology in Leland Stanford Jr. University. By the courtesy of Prof. DArcy V. Thompson and Mr. James M. Macoun, I have used certain photographs taken by the Commissioners of. Great Britain and of Canada. To the author of The Beaches of Lukannon, I gratefully make any acknowledgment the reader may deem proper. DAVID S TAR J R O RDAX. Palo Alto, California, January 19, 1897. LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS.
