| am convinced every day that
our people, both young and old,

lessly cruel, for they do not realize
the misery they inflct on dumb
animals, which cannot speak for
themselves. The little boys who
shoot at birds do it TO exercise their
skill as much as to be cruel, but it
proves to be cruel, for there is
many little nest left uncared for
because some boy has killed the
little mother while she has been
away to take n little exercise. Two
such nests built by red birds on my
porch have had this fate. One
nest had three little brown and

other two. | found the little ruff
of the mother bird under the big
maple, showing that the tragedy
occurred very near the home of the
bird. The bird law of Missouri

it early every spring hereafter, as
a warning to the boys as to what
will happen if they violate the law.

it were a matter of life and death
