Il shall be very glad to cooperate
with you in furthering the cause OF the
Audubon societies. doubt if there is
anyone in Virginia more interested in
the study OF birds in preservation and
propagation than | am. Up to this
time. my efforts have been put for
ward in behalf OF the game birds. The
bob white quail, the ruffed grouse,
the wild turkey, and our wild water
fowl have engaged my attention especl-
ally. / should like very much to have
the Audubon societie aid me in my
efforts to protect the nirds just named,
and, as far rs possible, prevent the ex-
termination by pot hunters OF those
birds that live and propagate in Viz
GINA. The ruffed grouse and the wild
turkey are fast disappearing on account
of the ruthless slaughter OF the hunter,
and the bob white quail is also de-
creasing year by year.
Il should like to see law passed by
our next general assembly forblddlns
the sale for food purposes of the wild
tafksys the quail, the ruffed grouse and
the deer for at least five years, Hon

seals at any one time is TO be issued a
certificate of annual membership TO
the State Anti-Tuberculosis Assocla-
ton. This action, which has Just been
authorized by the state association Is
expected to largely increase the demand
for seals as many persons WISH 10 CO.
operate with the state league. =.
Beautiful certificates OF membership
in the state association signed by the
president and executive officers have
been received here and are being issued
TO those who purchase 200 seals.
These certificates are highly ona-
mental aside from their value as evil
dence OF enlistment in noble cause,
and are in great demand.
Those who have charge OF the work
here request that all purchasers OF 200
seals who desire certificates will ask for
them at the time they make their pur-
chase, as this will save inconvenience
and possible confusion.
The sale yesterday was satisfactory
and the workers at a number OF the
agencies were busy during mailing
hours selling seals to the purchasers.

- than they had ever seen her
before.
II believe you have good news for
u.s." said Mabel, smiling.
Indeed | have!" cried Beth. And
Of course it's about Harold. There's
been such O change in him! Dean
Russell told me yesterday that there
wasn't a boy in school he would trust
any quicker than be would Harold.
And you just ought to see him play
football!'
The other girls laughed with the
contagious happiness.
Il knew he had it in him to come
out all right if he'd just get started in
the right direction" said Mabel.
"Will we see him tonight?" ques-
toned Gladys.
"No, he's in training, you know, and
can't be up nights. But tomorrow is
the last game of the season, and he's
promised to take us all to the theater
tomorrow night We're going to have
a box too"
Over the Rau Ia Snipsilon chapter

..We can afford to take good care or

stopped by the fence on his way to
town one day. Its doing enough for

The top gratis began to pear that
e and the trees were loaded with
a plentiful supply of fine fruit 1t
seemed as If every one else had plenty
of apples that year, too, and the bot
tom dropped out of the apple market
Snyder had given up his attempts at
manipulating prices, however. and
Gladys found no difficulty in getting
the storage company to put away a
hundred barrels which she and Mabel
had decided to hold for a higher price.
Another school year opened, and al
most before the girls realized 1t
Thanksgiving day was at hand ana
with it the great Iowa-Minnesota foot
ball game. jeff had written to GLADYS
TO ask her If she still remembered
their agreement, so that she knew
Mat he must have made the team.
His letters did not come very often
any more. and when they did they
said very little about himself. They
had seer by the paper that he had
been placed second in the state ora
torieal contest. but he never told them
that sitting up with a sick roommate
two nights previous was all that kept
him from getting first nor that the
governor of the state had shook his
hand when it was owe and told him
that he had a great future before him
as all orator.
Beth had been renewing her invita-
ton in every letter she had written
that term. and two days before the
game she even went so far as to call
them up over the telephone. So the
day before Thanksgiving the girls
packed their suit cases and took the
train for Iowa City to be present at
the biggest western football game Of
the season.

after the strain Of weeks of hard train

II don't are if | do-just one" he
said, and with something Of the old

the seat that was promptly vacated
for him.
He played and lost and played and
lost again, so fascinated In the shift

time and losses.
