Birds Suffering
From Cold Spell
The cold rain of January 2 on
top of the eight inch enow of last
week has placed the wildlife of
this County in a precarious posi
tion. Game and song birds ?re
Buffering from lack of food, and
the cold, wet weather is very con
ducive to the spread of disease.
The wildlife department of the
Soil Conservation Service is mak
ing a plea to the sportsman to lay
W aside his gun for the remainder
of the season. Hunting coupled
with severe weather will (leal the
birds a blow from which it may.
take several years to recover.
A more sportsman-like thing to
do in this critical period is to feed
the birds. Everyone can help by
scattering a few crumbs, meat
scraps, grain and other seed for
them to eat. Dozens of songbirds
can be attracted to one's back
yard by erection of feeding sta
tions. Every interested sportsman
should cooperate with the farmers
hi seeing that corn, wheat, oats.
Sorghum seed, rye, and other
grains are distributed in all like
ly quail ranges.
The Soil Conservation Service
is developing a program which
will eventually take care of the
birds in a time like this. Shrubs
which are a source of winter food
are being used in erosion control
plantings as food and protection
coverts.

in the I.ouisburg Baptist Church
Sunday morning, a^cordii^ to
announcement made yesterday.
Sunday School will be held at
9:45 a. m. ?
There will be no services in the
evening.
ST PAUL'S EPISCOPAL
CHURCH
Recent repairs to the Church
Furnace assures us of warm build
ng in which to worship. New
S'ates and other parts for the
'urnace and a heightened chim
ley should produce more heat.
Due to the excessively bad weath
er of New Year's Eve and the
Sunday preceding, however. It was
thought unwise to hold services.
Sunday School will begin at
10:00 Sunday January 5. New
lesson leaflets and material for
all classes make it important for
all to begin 'the New Year's work
together on Sunday.
Being first Sunday, Holy Com
munion will be celebrated at 11:00
and a New Year's Sermon preach
ed. Y.P.S.L. will meet at 7 p. m.
' at the rectory.
The rector's telephone is listed
as "Episcopal Rectory" in the new
book, number 448-1. This explana
tion is made dilfc to the rector's
having changed living quarters
for the winter.
I We extend to all cordial good
wishes for a bright and blessed
New Year, and a standing invita
tion to attend St. Paul's Church
'often during 1936.
Announcement of Confirmation
Classes will be made Sunday
morning.
