Rev. L. w. Layfeld took the mis-
sionary collection at Friendship church
Sunday, realizing nearly $780,, which
puts the church above its apportion-
ment. A pleasing feature of the oc-
casion was that five young men on the
same seat contributed $500. The col
lection at Severson's was beyond that
of last year, but not yet fully up to the
amount he desires. The Sunday
School collections are yet to be taken.

TOO SMART.
Sparrows Were Too Sly to Enter Trap
 Set for Them.

IVY Ao~ AASAAs
 As cunning strategists the spar rows that have made a portion of Vine street a terror to mankind can safely be matched against the world. Re gently a well-known dealer on the west side of this thoroughfare, be- tween Fifth and Longworth streets, thought he had solved the problem of how to do away with the little pests. His scheme was all right, provided the birds did their expected part, but, with the exasperation which only a sparrow can cause, they refused to do any such thing. The trick adopted by the dealer was the old one of trap ping the little nuisances. A largewire cage had been especially constructed for them, and this was placed on one of the telegraph poles amidst the low CT strand of wires upon which the sparrows were wont to take up their nightly roost. At either end of the cage were large trap doors which the dealer intended 10 suddenly close as soon as the pests had flown into it. When roosting time came there had congregated on the sidewalks crowd of such proportions that traffic was considerably impeded. Every body was gazing upward with gleeful croilac opd ;t uo- ovidant +hot rpoct of the gazers anticipated treat when tie sparrows would walk into the trap. The birds soon began to gather in great numbers, but, strange to say, none of them would go near the inno- cent-looking cage. They simply lowered around for moment to re- conoiter, and then flew 10 the higher strands of wires.-Cincinnati Courier
