SHETLAND'S TAME 'GULLS.
Each Family Has Its Own Flock and
the Children Feed Them.

the Children Feed Them.
There are many small villages in
the world that have only one street,
but Lerwick. in Shetland. besides hav-
ing only a single street. possesses only
one tree. There are no birds there,
not even a sparrow, but the seagulls
are plentiful.
The seagulls are the sparrows of
Lerwick. and as such they have a
greater share in the towns life than
the sparrows Of London. In the morn
ing you will note that a seagull sits on
every chimney pot. Seagulls swoop
and hover over every roof in town.
The air is full of their strange. high,
plaintive. haunting cries.
Every house has its own familiar
seagulls and every street its own band
of them. But they never mix. The
children in each house have pet
name for their own particular sea
gulls. and having called them by those
names. they feed them every day.
Each seagull knows what is meant
for him. No bird attached to one
house ever seeks to eat the food scat
tered from the house next door, He
does not dare to do so. So all day long
the seagulls hover and call over the
roofs Of Lerwick
The people of the town. If they come
across little pile of rice laid upon
the roadway. step over 1t with care
They know that it has been placed
there for some seagull. And at night
the seagulls leave their appointed
chimneypots and fly gracefully away
to their resting places on the rocks OF
the Isle of Noss.-Fruit Magazine.

"The Village School Master" will
never cease to grow DID, and will al
ways prove a splendid play from box
office standpoint, when it will keep the
audience in the laughing mood that it
has done for the past two days at the

players were never seen to better adj

company gambol around the room
dressed as children in the third act,
and their costuming and makeups are
very clever. The play was written for

CLEVER BIRD TRICK.

The Wood kishtjar Has . Way Of
Openly Conesaiino Itself.
In his book "A Naturalist In the
Guianas" Eugene Andre tells Of the
tricky manner in which one bird fools
the hunters. He says:
1.-The wood nightjar is q difficult bird
to detect during the day. He chooses
for perching some notified stump or
branch SO closely resembling his plum

the bough upon which he is sitting. l

have passed quite close to a good many
Of these large nightjars, yet must con-
fess that only on one occasion did get
a good opportunity Of observing the
habits Of this bird.

one Of the mangrove trees which line
the creeks. when what had appeared
to me to be dry stump jutting out of
one of the branches seemed to move

bits of stick at it, but 1T did not move
until it was actually struck, when. to
our surprise. a wood nightjar fitted a
short distance away, alighting on q
stump similar to the one which he had
left a moment before. He immediate
ly 1attened his tail against his perch
and assumed an attitude which gave
him all the appearance of being part OF
the stump on which he rested.

invariably followed the same tactics.

stumps or branches which his plumage

7. P. A.
Notes
BY w. Fl. Q.

At the last meeting of the post, ar
rangements were made to hold the an
nual T. P. A. picnic in Glen Miller
park, Saturday, August 10. Various
committees were appointed to look
after the plans and arrange for. the
different features of the picnic. Marion
Shreeve's committee will have COM
plete charge, the other committees Sc
lected working under the regular
committee on arrangements. Mr..
Shreeve will call as many ladies to
his assistance as he desires.
Many and various means of enter
tainment and amusements are being
planned. Athletic contests will be a
feature of the program. The annual
picnic has become a fixed event in
and is looked forward to with pleasure
by all those who attend.
While press chairman Quigg and
his big gang are peacefully enjoying
life at Crooked Lake in the T. P. A.
camp, quite few of the travellers are
compelled to hustle up and down the
for box of prunes or a paper of
tacks. To all insult to INJURY and to
cause the poorer brethren to all the
more feel his poverty the genial press
chairman sends word to one of the
cubs that the T. P. A. notes must be
written by this same over-worked
cub for several weeks to come as he
intends to stay at Crooked Lake until
the frost is on the pumpkin down here
in little old Wayne county.
1t is to be hoped that Shorty"
Shreeve will use all the power that is
pent up in his little two by four body
and prevail upon everybody to bring
an abundance of chickens to the pic
mic. Shorty" says the crop is a little
late this year, but promises to have a
few young frys fattened by August 10.

open SEASON
IS FAVORED
Many Farmers Say Game Laws
Retard Agriculture

Many farmers favor the repeal of
the law protecting deer. bears. skunks
and beavers. says the Marquette
Chronicle. Their contention is that
the laws are retarding the agricult-
ural growth of the peninsula and that.
under existing conditions. the PENN
sula is little better than game pre-
serve for lower peninsula hunters.
There is much truth I'm the conten-
ton. 1t is notorious that the average
hunter from lower Michigan has lit
tie respect for property rights. Not
only will he take possession of the first
over lands regardless of the wishes OF
the owner. In addition he will de-
stroy good timber for his camp fire.
He is also criminally reckless in the
matter of extinguishing his camp fires
and his carelessness has resulted in
destructive forest fires. Indeed many
of the invading hunters act upon the
conclusion that the people of the up
per peninsula have no rights which
they are bound to respect and are dis
posed to be impudent when attention
is called to their conduct. OF course.
there are exceptions to this criticism,
but the percentage is low. The invad-
ers as a whole. are deserving to be
designated 'the Kerosene krowd." AS
result of these depredations many of
the land owners have placarded their
possessions against trespassers and
the hunter is accorded few favors by
the settler.
While many are opposed to the open
season for deer. they do favor the
determination of bears and skunks.
and would offer a bounty for their
scalps. The contention that the up
per peninsula is looked upon as a
free for all game preserve, is undoubt-
eddy true and it is also true that this
view of the peninsula is retarding the
agricultural growth or the peninsula.
