WOULD SAVE THE SONGBIRDS

Associated Audubon Societies Have Planned a General Campaign Throughout the South,

A general campaign for the better protection of songbirds is to be conducted throughout the South by the Associated Audubon Societies, a national organization. T. Gilbert Pearson, président of the organization, who has been studying southern bird life, deplores evidence he has found which indicates that bird mortality in the South has about wiped out valuable species in many localities. In South Carolina he found conditions in this respeé¢t very distressing, while a survey in Texas revealed a similar situation. But his indictment covers the entire South, and hence the campaign in contemplation is to include all the southern states. Mr. Gilbert directed the attention of farmers to the fact that the fight against the boll weevil is being greatly handicapped by the slaughter of birds. .In this connection he said further: G

. “While they feed on insects and do not specialize on boll weevils, a single songbird will destroy great quantities of weevils. The value of these birds in checking the multiplication of insects is thoroughly understiood all through the North, where the laws protecting birds are observed. In most sections of the North a farmer would prosecute anyone killing songbirds on his lands. But in many parts of the South the farmers, his sons and the hired men kill birds constantly, eating the robin and some of the other larger varleties and shooting many of the smaller varieties for sport.”—New Orleans Picayune. : -

QUESTION FOR LAW SHARKS

Nice Point Concerning Ownership of Pearl Which Cook Discovered - in Clam She Was Eating.

A nice question of ethics and of law is raised by the case of the cook at Atlantic City who choked on a peari found in a clam she was eating and whose mistress then claimed the precious obstruction for her own. : In the diamond mines of the Rand at Kimberley the native workman who swallows a diamond does not, ipso facto, make it his own. He digs in the blue clay on the understanding that every jewel discovered belongs to the De Beers Mining company, Ltd. But the cook was in a different situatlon. She was given her food as a part of her compensation. The pearl is an excrescent part of the clam; it is the picturesque result of a diseased condition. L :

If possession is nine-tenths of the law, then the cook is entitled to the pearl on the principle of “findings is keepings.” In any cese, the lady of the house would be entitled to boast, as many a mistress has asserted, “I have a pearl in my cook]”—Philadelphia Public Ledger. 5

Lived With Coffin Twenty-Five Years. When Mrs. Eliza Bass became {ll at Lumberton, N. C,, 25 years ago she sent for a carpenter to have him make her a coffin to order. He turned out a nice.box of hard pine, varnished black, and at the old woman’s request placed it under her bed. She grew better immediately. During subsequent illnesses she has had the coffin brought out from under the bed, and every time has got well. ‘Meanwhile, living. by herself in her lonely little house on the edge of the village, says an exchange, she has felt safe and has been as safe from chicken thieves and other marauders as if she had & pack of fierce bulldogs to protect her. The negro population of the surrounding country had a deadly fear of the old woman’s house and would never go mear it after dark. Now the coffin has been put to its original use. Death has claimed its owner at the ripe age of ninety-four, and her friends and neighbors have (aid her away.

: Constancyl = Eileen was annoyed; she felt the family honor had been badly stained. It was Dora’s fault, so she spoke to her about it. W : “It’s no use denying it, Dora. Al though it was too dark for me to see who it was, I distinctly saw some man kiss you in the garden.” Dora was modern, and didn’t appreclate her sister’s argument. “I don't see why,” she sald. “Dve often seen George kiss you.” L

“Oh, that's different, I'm engaged to George. I allow nobody but him to kiss me.” i [ “Exactly,” sald Dora, “I allow nobody but George to kiss mel” 3

Famous Tracker Dead.

Perhaps the oldest of the Australian aborigines has lately died at the age of 101, His name was Jack Schoolie, and he was: commonly known as King Jacky. » .

He was known gll over the distriet of Pindari where he was lving, for his skill with cattle and horses, up to the age of ninety, and for the instinct of observation by which he could fellow a track that an ordinary man could not see at all. o

Jacky was a full-blooded aboriginal, and perhaps the last of the men who linked together the old life of the na: tive with the new life of civilization.
