BIRD NOTES
At the Bird Club meeting Satur

entitled "Dinner for Your Bird
Neighbors." ''
Birds at arm's length on a feed
ing tray outside your window make
an interesting picture of motion and
color to every member of the family,
and winter is really the time to be
gin to get acquainted with them,
though their colors are duller and
there are fewer to be identified.
Their food, is scarcer during this sea

so they are more easily coaxed-tar the
yard or window and can with pati
ence be brought to your hand by
means ef Mts of food.
Feed the birds regularly and do
not get impatient Give them time
to find the feeding boxes. During
severe weather feeding beneath pro
tected bushes or brash piles will help
the ground feeding bink. Water
should be provided too, oven in the
coldest weather. Feed your birds
regularly and well and yon will have
plenty of them*as dinner guests. Iky
