The English name for Eaater comes from the Anglo-Saxon "Eostre," goddess of light or spring, whose festival was celebrated in spring. Certainly, the world needs light today, and Easter would be appropriate time to admit the Light of Easter-morn into our internation al relations.

Mr. Bluebird is a model father and should his mate he injured or killed, he can assume full responsibility for the young. Birds pay rent on the houses by entertaining the landlord with song and by c&tchinJfl insects and mos quito larvae. Martins even fight crows and hawks thereby protecting Watts is convin Author 1 the time ced that the time spent in raising gourds and preparing houses is well repaid by the cheery songs and the crops saved from serious damage by insects.
