BIRD NOTES (Contributed) "Once they are gone we cm only remember them with longing. We are not God;- we cannot make America over again, bat we can come to what ia left of our heritave with patriotic reverence," so wrote Donald Peattie of our wildli^tr trees and clean bright watefi. Conservation is needed now more than ever since there ia danger it may be shoved aside under the pressure of wartime needs. Now that winter is here we must not forget our friends — the birds. Bird feeders kept filled with nuts and gTain will bring- desirable birds to gardens. Put these and a bird bath where the birds can be watched from a window. They will afford much pleasure to the watchers. Crumbs and nuts scattered on the ground will be gratefully eaten by the bkda. Every bird lover should protect the birds from stray cats. The aoog birds watching from the trees observe very few B. B. guns on the scrap metal piles. Boys, show your love for your birds «nd your country and scrap those guns. If women refused to wear feathers of any kind as aa adornment, the slaughter of rare birds would be stopped. Protect our birds that they may always be with us. ^ Fridey, Dec. 11—Miae Etta Gray Carraway, 9 to 12 A. M. Mr*, a W. Blackwood, 12 to 3 P. M. Mrs. Billy Burke, 8 to 6 P. M. Saturday, Dec. 12—Mrs. J.

Government Asks Less Meat-Eating All families in the Nation are being asked to contribute alike in the "share-the-meat" program by holding down weekly consumption to 2% pounds per person over 12 yean of age. In clarifying the request, Dr. I. 0. Schaub, director of the Extension Service of N. C. State Collfege, said all meat slaughtered on farms for home use and that which Uamilies purchase in quantity for storage in freezer lockers should be counted In the 2tt<-ponnd weekly sharing al-J lowance. This applies to the meaf from bome-slaughtered cattle, csalvea, hogs and sheep, since the " share-themeat" program affects all beef, pork, veal, lamb, and mutton. All meat, whether slaughtered on the farm or commercially, makes up the total supply to be available to consumers. Explaining the situation,' Dr. Schaub said that huge amounts of meat must be supplied to the Army, the Navy, and our Allies. Civilian consumption must be held to ' the amount available after all of these needs an met If civilians were allowed to bay all the meat they wanted, their purchases alone would take 21 billion pounds of the total available supply of slightly more than 24 billion pounds. Since Army, Navy, and Lease-Lend requirements amount to 6% billion pounds, civilian consumption must be cut to 17% billion pounds. Dr. Schaub said a meat-rationing system cannot be worked out until early in 1943, so citisens have been asked to coopenaite in the voluntary "share-the-mect" program so as to assure adequate rations for the Army, Navj, *nd American Allies.
