All w—k. Sfe£2fiin«£ * According to OPA long underwear is getting short. The doctors have so many patients they are loamy patimcp The most important state in the Union at this time is the state of affairs. Insects carry their sting in their tails while people carry theirs in their tongues. The poor we will always have with us but high taxes seems to be making away with the rich. When the world was created for man. nothing was said about his right to mortgage it. All of us are supposed to embrace every opportunity but most of us are not that affectionate. Better a narrow mind that is deep and straight than a broad one that is shallow and crooked. Old Dobbin contentedly munched his hay little realizing that he would soon be beef, Grade A. Uncle Mose.

The birds change to their bright summer phunage in April and early Kay. They are usually semi in North Carolina in their dull winter outfit as they arrive in October and leave before the moult has been acquired. In summer they are bluish gray streaked with black on upper parts and underneath they are white, Mack and yellow. The crown-patch, rump and a patch on each side of the breast is yellow. The winter birds are brownish with the markings dull and obscure. The four yellow patches are always present and the yellow rump is particularly noticeable and is a positive identification. They breed throughout much of Canada and South to New York State and winter from the Ohio valley and New Jersey to Panama and over the whole State of North Carolina. The food consists largely of berries of the myrtle, sumac, poison ivy, holly and cedar. Literally thousands swarm among the youpons and cedars along the Bogue Banks near Beaufort and near the mouth of New River in Onslow County. Hack Holmes was welcomed as a new member at this time.
