long lay-off during the holidays. Neith-
er team showed up to advantage. duo

not had q ball in their hands for the
past ten days.
The first game was very interesting
and close, though neither side rolled
good team games. Transportation.
however, came back strong in the last
two boxes in the first contest and final
iy won out by pins. This victory was
made possible by Captain williams big
score OF 13o. 1t might be mentioned
that Williams managed to get a little
practice during the holidays. The Sec

~ responsible for this win. Quade and

from the remotest parts Of the earth.
What man can do under Divine guild
ance and enlightenment is, we may be
sure, as nothing In comparison with
what his Creator can do with that Gre

In conclusion, we urge upon Chris

the name of Christ, the Importance OF
coming into relationship with Jesus Dy
faith: First, faith in Him as the Re-
deemer-the One through whom alone
there is provision for escape from sin,
sorrow, sickness, death; secondly. be-
lief In Him as the great King whose
Reign Is to accomplish the work OF
overthrowing sin: thirdly, belief in the
Testimony of Jesus and the Apostles
that He is gathering out Church to
be His Bride. or Associate, in His glo-
rious Messianic work of thousand
years-yea, and to be His Companion
In glory to all eternity Ephesians 25.
Let us become, through Christ,
through conservation. through Spirit
begetting, the children Of God, that we
may properly call Him our Father and
properly expect and receive His paren-
tai care over all our affairs, temporal
and spiritual. Let us remember that
the glory, honor. Immortality and Di-
vine nature, promised to the elect
saints, are to be attained only by those
who shall demonstrate their love and
loyalty to God by faithfulness in His
service even unto death, as did our
Lord Jesus Christ.

of tall bush or low tree, 1t gives

Indeed, in the South, where the latter
bird is abundant, the thrasher is
known as the sandy mocker
The food of the brown thrasher

examination of 636 stomachs showed
So per cent of vegetable and 81 of
animal food, practically all insects,
and mostly taken in spring before
fruit was ripe. Half the insects were
beetles and the remainder chiefly
grasshoppers, caterpillars, bugs and
spiders. A few predacious beetles
were eaten, but on the whole the work
of the species as an insect destroyer
may be considered beneficial.
Eight per cent of its food is made
up of fruits like raspberries or currants
which are or may be cultivated, but
the raspberries at least are as likely
to belong to wild as to cultivated va
rieties. Grain, made up mostly of
scattered kernels of oats and corn, is

thrasher is a useful bird, and prob
ably does as good work in its Sc
cluded retreats as 1t would about the
garden, for the swamps and grooves
are no doubt the breeding grounds
of many insects that migrate thence
to attack the crops of the farmer.
The catbird, like the thrasher, is a
lover of swamps and delights to make
its home in a tangle of wild grape

Reports from the Mississippi valley
indicate that the catbird is sometimes
serious annoyance to fruit growers.

prairies fruit-bearing shrubs, which

examination of SO stomachs showed
that >98 per cent of the contents was
made up of insects or their allies, and
only per cent was vegetable food,
including bits Of grass and similar
matter, evidently taken by accident
with the insects. Half of this food
consisted of grasshoppers and beetles;
the remainder of caterpillars, bugs and
spiders. AS the wren is prolific
breeder, frequently rearing in season
from IL to 16 young, a family of these

cies. There is in consequence a large
increase in the numbers of the birds,
but no corresponding gain in the sup
ply of native fruits upon which they
were accustomed to- feed. Under
these circumstances what Is more
natural than for the birds to turn to
cultivated fruits for their food? The
remedy is obvious: Cultivated fruits
can be protected by the simple expedi-
ent of planting the wild species which
are preferred by the birds. Some ex-
periments with catbirds in captivity
show that the Russian mulberry is
preferred to any cultivated fruit.
