THE CHICKADEE There are twp varieties of Chickadee in the moun tain counties of Western North Carolina, the Black capped and the Carolina Chickadee. The~ crown, nape, and throat of both kinds are black; the sides of the head and neck of each are white; the outer vanes of the greater wing-coverts, also the margins of wings and tail of the Black-cap ped Chickadee are white (this is almost absent in the Carolina Chickadee). The length of the Black capped is about five and a quarter inches; the length of the Carolina is about four inches; the breast of each is white. V The Chickadee, the least pugnacious 'of the birds, feeds in amity among its kind and responds readily to good treatment. Its diet is mainly larvae, chry salids, moth eggs, snout beetles, and tent-caterpil lar moths. It is an acro bat, often cutting capers in the air, clinging to the under side of a twig, etc. Perhaps no other bird ut ters its own name more clearly than the Chickadee. Incidentally, the Caro lina Chickadee came near being our state-adopted bird. During the session of the Legislature before the last both Senate and House passed a bill making the Chickadee our state bird but at the same ses sion the act was repealed. So North Carolina is one of the very few states without a x state-adopted bird. Tilson, Mrs. R. Y., 1 lot, value $l5O, tax penalty and cost $4.18. Tilson, S.

We would make no invidious comparison, but the fam ous magnolia gardens or the hanging gardens of Babylon pale to insignifi cance When compared with the rhododendron gardens on Roan Mountain. This wonderful mount ain is beautiful when not adorned with the flowers. It is G,285 feet above the rolling sea, and yet one can drive an automobile to the top over a good road and when on top tliere is space for the parking of an un limited number of cars. More than fifty years ago Genera 1 Wilder, a union general in the war between the states, came to see this world’s wonder, bought a large pari, of the mountain and constructed a • hotel near the top. The hotel was burned, the General died and the hotel was never re built.

You seek f(^ all the adjects |MMs still a it,. character of this wonderful mountain is, that it is in a chain of the oldest mountains in the world. When the Rockies, the Andes, the Alps and the Himalayas were * pebbles on the plain, the Roan, the Grandfather, Mt. Mitchell and the Smokies were hoary with age. It would seem, when you view these mountains that the Great Architect of the Universe with his mighty hand like a sower, made one master ful stroke and dropped the Grandfather, then the Roan and then lifting His hand in one great effort, reached the climax in Mt. Mitchell, 6,684, and wound up with having ' dropped the bulk of His mortar in ?. pile called the Smokies. There is no spot on earth that can compare with Roan Mountain when the rhododendron has dn her Blmday dress. You may stand on Council Crest in Portland, Ore., and view the snow-capped peaks; sail down the St. Lawrence, river through - the Thousand Islands; view Miami Beach, in winter with its mass of poinsettia and other beautiful flow ers; admire the Grand Canyon of the Colorado; aiid then having searched the world for beauty, come and see the Roan Mountain and be satisfied.—l Col.
