The conversation of a married oouple consists of an animated moticlogut. The Italian lake is now bemg used almost exclusively by ships of the United Nations. The fool and his money are soon parted. Even so, neither one of them 'has lost much. Simple Susie gives it as her experience that romance is the fragrance of courtship. An ungallant official says hfe's glad Mrs. Roosevelt isn't his wife. Perhaps she's glad, too. The kids like to imitate their papente. That's the why of so much juvenile delinquency. THE BIRD CLUB "Nesting Birds", read by Donnie Bryan, was the subject for study at Saturday's Bird Club meeting. With birds, as with humans, making a home starts as soon as the formalities of courtship are done. The male-picks the area for the nest and the female chooses the exact tree, shrub or the thicket. Sometimes the male helps build the nest Other times he gets in the way or just sits around and singp. Whan the nest is finished the female starts to lay eggs in it, usually at the rate of one a day. Some males do a full share of nest sitting while the eggs are incubating. Regularly the eggs are turned over so they will be equally warmed on all sides. A great many water birds, which are usually bora with eyes open and muscles developed, can "leave the nest a few hours after .being hatched. Most aboreal bixdlings, however, are weak and helpless for days. At first, some bird parents swallow food, then regurgitate it into the months of their babies. Careful parents push insects far dawn a young toil's throat so the insect can't fly away. Birdlings are not fed id rotation. The one that yells the loodeat > fed first and continues to be fed until another bindling yells loader. Birds automatically ceqse to swallow—hot not to yell—when they have had enough to eat. If fits mother sees an unswallowed bird she picks it out and gives It to another baby. Nest Color photographs of parents ""i nestlings were exhibited.

State College Hints For Farm Homemakers By Both Current, N. C. State College. To distribute the wear on sheets we suggest to homemakers that they put the small hem at the ton of the bed at least half of the time. To protect sheets from snagfcing and tearing we suggest that a mattress cover be placed over the bed spring*. Remember too that a bit of adhesive tape carefully bound over a rough place on the spring will also help to avoid a tear. Wash rag or chenille rugs just as you wash blankets; let them drip dry. 'When hanging, fold over line and fasten two clothespins down each hanging side, pinning doable thicknesses. Shake or brush when nearly dry to fluff up. Wash curtains as you would silks. Put certains of fine materials such as lace and scrim in a net bag to wash. Stanch keeps them fresh, crisp, and clean longer. Use a large kettle so that all curtains for one room can be starched evenly and at once. Do not hang curtains cm the line to dry but roll up in a sheet. Iron when damp dry. In hanging sheets out to dry, put large and small hems together; swing Urge hem over the line, with small hem on the outside. Place clothespins at one-foot intervals. Straigheen selvages. When removing, fold sheet crosswise again, and it is ready for irotaing. v ^ jf Hang tablecloths lengthwise, putting selvage edges together. Pin closely, like sheets. Hang guest towels singly with a third over the line, and with embroidered put or colored edging at the bottom. Hang bath towels singly, a third over the line. Shake when dry to fluff up nap. Do not iron towels. For handkerchiefs, napkins and washcloths, hang-two or three over each other by the hem, not by the comer*. \ COTTOPf ^ • Entirely too much grwn and damp cotton is being haol2k3||ahe gins this fall, resulting in losses of from M-to $6 a bale to the farmer, reports Extension Gin Specialist C.
