BIRD CLUB NOTES Joe Henry Bynum, Jr., was a guest at Saturday** meeting and held the interest of the member* while ha read a chapter from BUI and The BirdbMder, by Jttfna H. Evans. The story shows the love of Bill for birds and his desire to help wounded ones. With the help of a new formed friend who knew how to set bird's broken wings, a Pelican's life was saved. For a long, long time he could not fly for his wing was bound firmly to his side so the bones could not tear apart. Bill named the bird Beaky and was kept busy finding enough food to satisfy his ravenous appetite. He even used more than half of his weekly allow ance to buy food for him, and then used a net and caught mumora two or three times a day. Knowing-.that Beaky was a wild creature and would not be happy as a prisoner, Bill, feven though he was very attached to him, released him when his wing healed and he could fly . again. When he flew away he was wearing a brand new bracelet. By this band Bill would know if he was caught by anyone else. Diane Monk and Gene Presoott were two other welcomed guests.
