The Beautiful Birds Of Cloudcroft
BY Mrs. W. S. Tilton.

Cloudcroft, N NJ, Sept. 24.-The
lights are out and $50" has been
sounded for the season of 1910. The
old green tents that have served so
many seasons are dismantled Git is
hoped for the last time) and the re-
sort has the appearance of deserted
city. A quiet reIgns over the place
that is very peaceful, restful and
grateful to the few tired pilgrims who
yet remain. Never were the woods
more beautiful. They are just chang
ing their summer raiment for the gor-
geous reds, yellows and browns Of
autumn: the sunsets are a blaze OF
glory and a blue and purple mystery
hangs over everything.
The woods are full of the most won
derful and interesting birds-the owl,
who has hooted at the summer So
journers. has taken on a friendlier
tone and in the stiffness of the night
tells us that "all is WELL while at
sunset when the western sky is all
aglow, and the mountains are all alignt
with amethyst and rose. and the poor
est object shares in the transnSGra-
ton of the sunset hour. the thrush
which. like the tolling of the Ange;us
arrests toll and earthly thoughts. IS
heard: again at sunrise, if one is tor
tunate enough to be awake, the thrush
sings a greeting to the new born day
But bird that can be heard almost
any time of day is the mountain chick
adee. 1t is a gray bird With the top
of its head and throat jet black. the
head striped with white lines
The most interesting birds are me
hlue iav and the woodpecker. The
stiller lay is one of the handsomest
birds seen up here, and is also oAe
of the lords of its race; these tl"ds
visit the grounds of he deserted cot

ers lived there. and oh. what gasSlps
they are. The fore part of its BODY Is

the Frank Leake stock company. She
was assisted by Miss Helen, Cooper, an

Churches should place shrubs
and other plants around their
premises, with a landscape plan
similar to that which your
Wahpeton school board has al
ready adopted. In England
and Ireland, when you enter
church, you have the feeling of
entering into a park.
Cemeteries should be beau.
titled to the utmost, as a mere
matter of sentiment if nothing
more. AS q matter of business,
a beautified cemetery adds to
the dignity and value of a town.
LAS regards the care of the
poor, it would be worth while
in Wahpeton, as a phase of
civic improvement, in connec-
ton with Breckenridge, to look
after this in the way of asso.
ciated charity work. 1t should
be done not as doing out aims,
but on the ground that the poor
can thus get on their feet and
take care of themselves.
what attitude should towns
people take in the future? An
organization should be effected
aiming to develop right atti-
tude towards the community
in which we live. l should cor
rect taste so that we may learn
to recognize our deficiencies
and attempt to improve them.
The great difficulty in America
is that we fail to see far enough
ahead. We should plan to have
beautiful schoolhouses, roads,
roadsides, parks, library, we'll.
