Mr. .and Mrs. Arthur Tener of Niagara are announcing the open ing of Tener’s Bird House, the first pet shop to be opened in the Sandhills. They have erected a small building in the yard of their home in Niagara, and Tuesday night received their first shipment of parakeets from Florida, 18 beau tiful little birds of various shades of blue, also green and turquoise. They plan to carry, in addition to these little parrots that sing and can be taught to talk, a stock of gold fish, tropical fish, aquatic plants, together with cages and stands, aquariums, fish food, bird seed, gravel, and even toys for birds. Mr, Tener is office manager for the Southern Pines Warehouses Inc., and Mrs. Tener is bookkeep er there, so they will have their pet shop open only after 5 p. m. on weekdays and after 12 noon over the weekends. They have been toying with the idea of opening a shop of this kind for several months. They purchased a piarakeet as a pet a little over a year ago, and during that time have been ordering its food from a distant State. Their pleasure in the ownership of this bird plus the inconvenience of supplying its needs finally turned the trick, and. they are enthusias tic over the new venture. “We have built a cage and put a tree in it,” Mrs. Tener explain ed, “and when those 18 birds of different colors perched on it, it was a beautiful sight.” A RECORD OF YOUR HEALTH Each prescription we fill is saved for future reference.
