Glimpses Of Bird-Life

/ SCNlloll.J
! I.4uch has been written about
| the preservation of our song birds
"a sD.,ject in which all nature
! students are deeply interested.
Legislation along this line is some
help; but the slaughter cannot be
stopped entirely that way. The
cure-the permanent cure we will
find in a more widely awakened
interest in the birds and their
! habits. .- '~.... ".. ~"."
1t is a delightful study; and a
practical knowledge of our more
common birds is within the reach
of almost every one. Living in
town or city does not bar zone
from this pleasure. Bradford
Torrey, the ornithologist, pursued
his studies on the Boston COM
mons for years with remarkable
results.
Birds are often numerous in
the city parks, in and around the
smaller towns.
Five years ago the writer's could
not correctly name a dozen
birds" Then we became inter-
ested in the subject from reading
Natures Serial Story" (E. p.
Roe) and began to watch them at
odd moments.
We became deeply absorbed,
and got books on the subject from
the Wilmington Library, ard now,
although our chances for study
are merely the intervals snatci1ed
from busy life, we are acquaint-
ed with over seventy of our bird
neighbors-among them the resi-
dents, such as the Caroline wren,
white-breasted nuthatch, blue Jay,
etc. The winter visitors, includ-
ing the unc', an occasional chick
adee, etc. The summer boarders,
headed by the robins, blue birds
and song sparroWs--a long list,
composing Natures Oryhestra,
which is not complete until the
wood thrush 1--WE call him the "con-
certmeister'') takes his place, and
then Nature lifts her baton and
gives to all who will listen a per-
feet symphony, each morning and
evening.
Among our acquaintance are
also the Callers, including the
fox sparrow and hermit thrush
who are with us for week or two
in the Spring, on their way North,
and in the fall on their return
South.
1t is impossible to tell of the
happiness that can be had from
this study. We advise that every
body find out for themselves.
A good field glass is very useful,
but is not necessity. We had
none the first three years of our
study.
The following books will be
found useful in naming the birds
you see and hear this spring.
The best book for beginners
that we have seen, is "Chapmans
Bird Life" Others are-"Field
Book of Wild Birds and their
Music" by Matthews; Color
Key to North American Birds, ,'by
Chapman and Reed; wake Rob-
in,' by Burroughs; "a Hermit's
Wild Friends" M. A. Walton;
Birds in the Bush," Bradford
Torrey; "In Nesting Time Mrs.
Harriet Miller; Birds Calendar"
Parkhurst.
We canot emphasize too much
the Importance of this study. 1t
takes one out of doors to begin
with, and that is a good beginning.
1t develops through exercise, the
powers Of body and mind, especial
ly the sight, hearing and the mus

Valley Forge and 7 orktown

PENNSYLVANIA, was the rather Sc
we're but perhaps necessary prep
aration for the glorious achieve
ment at Yorktown. The winter
through which we are now passing
may give us taste of that winter
OF I777-I77S, in which the Cont
nentals, reduced to 1890 half
starved poorly equipped militia,
invested a force of British in Phla-
delpllia numbering 1850 thor
oughly furnished regulars. 1t is
customary for us pleasure-seekers
10 visit Valley Forge in the sum-
mer time. But how different it
must have been that unusually
cold winter, when the earth was
covered with snow, when the icy
winds howled through the woods
and the scantily-clad Americans
crept up to the bon-fires to warm
their benumbed limbs! With the
ravage of diseases, with the return
of soldiers to their homes at the
expiration of their terms of enlist
ment, and frequent desertions, the
army was reduced to 5000 fighting
men, and they on the point of star
walton, because the foragers were
unable to secure provisions. There
amid such circumstances, to say
nothing of the cabal formed by
some jealous officers to force him
to resign, Washington managed to
get committee from Congress to
visit the camp and determine on
plans for increasing the efficiency
of the army. At that crisis there
came to Valley Forge stern old
disciplinarian, who for seven years
had been aid-de-camp to Freder-
ick the Great, of Prussia, Baron
Stertben. Appointed Inspector
General he set about to train both
officers and men, who were almost
entirely ignorant of the manual of
arms. Thus, after months of such
discipline, the little American
army, once without order, accus-
toned to meet the attacks of the
British regulars, each man for him
self, Indian style, became like one
great machine, with many parts,
each doing its work, but moving
with reference to the whole. The
training received at Valley Forge
made these Continentals the vet
eran warriors, who leNped over
the Notifications of Yorktown and
brought to an end the long war.
Three years later the scene was
shifted from Pennsylvania to Vir-
ginia. On October 9th, 1881,
Washington put the match to the
first cannon fired against York
town, in which CORVALLIS was
penned. Ten days later the Brit
ish surrendered. All through the
bombardment the Valley Forge
veterans, led by their old drill
master Baron Steuben, performed
valorous service. They captured
redoubt after redoubt, while the
French troops, moving slowly,
were still engaged in the conflict,
and suffered severely, because they
left themselves exposed SO long a
time in maneuvering. The next
morning, after the surrender,
Washington congratulated his
troops on their victory and an
nounced "that there would be di-
vine services tomorrow in the sew
eral brigades and divisions" He
called upon all, whose duties would
permit, to join in these services
with seriousness of department
and gratitude of heart, which the
recognition Of such reiterated
and astonishing interpretations of
Providence demands of u.s." AS
he penned that order the mind of
the great commander-in-c may
have gone back to the winter spent
in Valley Forge, and at last he un-
derstood why the Go dof battles

s. Il. Rauhauser, director of public
safety, held a long conference with
Chief of Police John w. Klinefelter
at the mayors office Wednesday
morning. Shortly after the session,
the men announced that work would
probably begin next week to convert
the local mayors office and police
headquarters into rooms that cannot
be condemned by the health board.
Ever since Chief Klinefeter re-
ceived his appointment, he has been
preaching to the city officials to have
the quarters of the police and mayor
repaired. Just because the city can't
afford to build a new city hall is no
sign that 1t cannot improve the one
that II has, by at least making il
look neat and clean,y.
The idea of the chief and service
director Is to paper the walls. oil the
floors and paint the Woodwork

years since the rooms were improved
