track of the bird laws in avery State. and to improve these laws by keeping in touch with local game oftcsals everywhere, and by watching every Legislature from the first day of each session to the last One especial aim always in view is to obtain leglsla- tion to shorten the open seasons and to prohibit the shooting pf all kinds of game in the spring of the year The latter plan is advocated mainly to prevent the shooting of migratory birds after they have spread their wings for Northern flight at the breaking up of the severe winter weather. Bird loY- CTS know that these migratory birds .are invariably mated before turning their heads n0rthward so that if one of & pair Is shot by some needless so- called sportsman, the remaining one or the pair is left alone with little chance of finding another mate. Some birds, 1t is known, mate for life, and in such cases the shooting of either of them when they are setting out to build home is even more reprehensible.
 Work Among Children.
 To stimulate public interest in bird protection and to make more generally known such facts as these, the Ma tlonal Association has been carrying on a systematic educational movement among the children of the country to bring them to an appreciation of the aesthetic side as well as the patriotic one of preventing the extermination Of rare American species. Leaflets have been issued in large editions, dscrib- ing the birds of this country. with coll ored plates, and an outline of the bird which the children can color 4n crayon from observation, or with the teach CTS instruction. To strengthen the impression In the child's mind, colored plates showing the types found in that locality are provided, SO that an ac- euaintance with the exact tNRe will insure the chtlds recognizing the va rious species of birds on sight. Full confidence Is felt that as soon as the juvenile a ind, unhampered by eommer- cial considerations, learns something of the life history of American birds, there will no longer be room for the development of any tendency to harm them wilfully. If we can teach the coming generation the facts Of the life history and value of American birds. .' commented MT. Butcher, i've will give them a taste for the proper protection of birds and the enforcement of all | laws with this object in view"
 Shore birds especially are in need Of l greater protection, in the opinion of ! MT. Butcher. There are eleven species | of small shore birds, some of them not larger than sparrows, but. unfor- l tunately, some belong to the game bird class. Some of these, known as Ltm l icolae," should he removed from this 1 class to that of non-eame birds, eX- perts believe, if extermtnation is to

 Perhaps the most famous name in cloekmaking annals in America Is that of Willard. There were at least four clockmRkers of this name, simon, Aaron, Benjamin and simon, Jr. 1t is supposed to be the last who invented that peculiar style of clock known as the Willard or banjo.
 In 1902 Willard, of Boston. who was, no doubt, Benjamin, and had work shops at Grafton and RoxburS, as well as at Boston. took out a patent for his timepieces. Of all the old clocks these seem to be the ones most de- sired.

HAS LARGE FIRE
IMPORTANT LUMBER CENTER OF
CALIFORNIA is ALMOST TO-
TALLY DESTROYED AS RESULT
OF THE RECENT EARTHQUAKE.

Berkeley Cal, April 21.-A private letter
received today by Postmaster Schmidt
brings the information that Fort Bragg,
one of the principal numbering towns of
Mendocino county, was almost totally de-
stroyed as result of fire following the
earthquake of last Wednesday morning.
The bank and other brick buildings were
levelled as result of the tremors and
within a few hours fire had completed the
work of devastation. But one person Of
the 5000 inhabitants was killed. but scores
were injured.
Eureka. another large town in the same
county, fifty miles from Fort Bragg. was
practically unchanged, although the shock
was felt there
Relief expeditions were at once sent
to Fort Bragg from surrounding towns
and villages and the people of the ruined
area are being cared for.
