The Coles were no doubt curious as to how he divides the goodies with his mate—he was most fair —he played “one for you and one for me” with her so that she received one every time he did. Attawa Dupuy declares that her cardinals “sit on the table”. Unlike most birds that come to the feeder, grab a bite and fly off with it, the cardinal pair will sit, one on each side of the feeder, he will feed her frequently, and remain there until they have completely finished. When mealtime is over they are on their way. Within the past two weeks there have been reports of rose breasted grosebeaks in the community. The first of which we heard came to my dad’s feeder following the example of his cousins the evening grosebeak. For the past three years he has been around our house but, un til this year, had not been to the feeder and had been identified as the orchard oriole from a distance. We are so happy to have him with us for his song can be heard from early morning all throughout the day so we as sume he and his mate are nesting nearby. Another beauty back with us for the summer is the in digo bunting. If you see a flash of the bluest-blue you can imagine, something like the blue on a peacock, you have just seen the male in digo bunting. Another unusual bird is the oven bird which has been to the Dupuy’s feeder. He is a cute little fellow that walks TERMITES? CALL EARL T.

He came out of the post office cigarette in hand to get into his car. As he did so the live ash was knocked from the cigarette but he nev er did locate it. He and Mrs. Eckles drove on home and later in the day she called to him saying the car was on fire. They called the fire de partment and within three minutes they were on the scene and the fire was out be fore any great damage was done. Only the seat and a section • o(f the back were burned. Add this praise to the list of previous accomplishments. Alaikan Humor The top ten hits in Alaska these days are: WHOLE LOT OF SHAKING GOING ON, by the Earthquakes; LIGHTS OUT, by the Tidal Waves; STANDING ON THE CORN ER WATCHING THE STREETS DIVIDE, by the Splits; HOMES IN THE BAY, by the Tremors; WRECKED HOMES IN THE SUNSET, by the Shifters; FUNNY HOW TOWNS SLIP AWAY, by the Drifters; ON THE SUNKEN SIDE OF THE STREET, by the Levelers; EARTHQUAKE HOTEL, by the Downfalls; L C. PENNY’S IN HEAVEN, by the Macy’s Trio and AS TIME GOES BY, SO DO THE HOUSES, by the Slip Alongs. Danger Spot One of our senior citizens called to our attention the fact that there is a set of dangerous steps which bring the pedestrian from the State Street level down to that of Cherry Street at the corner where the McMurray offices and Griffin’s Pants Store join. He suggests a light, believing that it is extremely dangerous for strangers who do not know the steps are there. Confounding The Visitors The visiting team recently at Owen for the purpose of examining for Southern Asso ciation accreditation seemed to have been impressed, amus ed and sometimes confused. From the students, or a few of them, we hear that the team thought the chang ing of classes with no tardy bell simply couldn’t be done— hey found out. According to principal, Martin, who came up with some very interesting statis tics as a result of the study of the community from which the students are drawn, we live in a semi-rural communi ty in which many families work away from home and operate a small farm on the side. This, so Mr. Martin to'd a gathering at PTA Tues day night, makes for more loyalty toward the school (and other people, too) than if we had an urban community. So it was small wonder that when a member of the ex amining team approached one of the girls at Owen and ask ed “if a magic wand could be waved and you could change anything about the school what would you change?” To this the bright young miss smiled and answered “not a thing, everything is just fine.” We have no idea where the member was from who asked if the students were always as clean as they were on the two days the team was there! Mr. Martin was high in his praise of the students, not just during the “time of trial” but at all times although he did say that “when the chips are down, the kids will come through for you.” It appears that the most pressing need found by the visiting team was for more space for classrooms. Seems that I remember hearing that the school lacked room from the very day the foundation was laid; the first year is was occupied it was lacking as far as space was concerned. This need has multiplied with the years and will continue to do so until the war-time children have completed high school. 1 NOTICE! 19(2, 1963 and 1966 FORD MR OWNERS Your ear needs so little ®onJ ofwjoo* your 6,000, 12,000, 18,000, 24,000 and 30,000 mile preventive checkup.
