(In memory of HER birthday, March 21) BIRD CLUB NOTES At the Bird Club meeting this week Emerson Roebuck read an arti cle regarding the killing of 200 birds by some boys, when the birds sought shelter in a barn during a snowstorm. The story was -sent in as a newspaper clipping by Mrs. Grandin Vought, of Gatesville, who has been reading of the meetings of the club in these columns. In the story, the boys dropped their heads in shame when some one told them that, with the exception of j the sparrows, they had killed some of the best friends of the farmers. "Boys," said this older man, "we except injurious animals, insects, weed seeds, and the like. Now for instance, just suppose each of those I birds you killed ate an average of j know these birds eat very few things 100 insects a day. That means 200 killed would eat 20,000 in a day. I During the summer months they would destroy 2/)00ft00 insects, to j say nothing of seeds from injurious weeds and other foea to the farmer. "So, when you want to loll another bird, stop and reason: rWhy should I do thisf Has is ever banned me? I Does it not have the same right to j live, sing, and build its home ss any I other creature?' "Let's not destroy our bird I friends," says Mr. Hammer in this J . true story printed in the Prugres j she Farmer. H. P. Norman told of John Silver, the homing pigeon, hero of Gran Pre. j During the Meuse-Argwrne drive in t 1918, he was released in the face of I heavy gun fire to carry a menage to headquarters. Though wounded j he readied his goal in 25 minutes. I He recovered and was finally taken] to Hawaii, where ha died i? 193$.
