The Folk SONGS of War.

1t is hard to keep up with these stir
ring times. The other day a score or
so OF young men swung down Broad
way singing "Tipperary." To the casual
spectator they seemed a fairly good
imitation Of the ranks of "Kitchener's
army in training. No doubt the young
Americans aimed at this effect and felt
themselves the last thing"
Quite recently. too, some one has
srumbled in Ireland about using a song
made exclusively for himself as an
English war song. But an earwitness
wrote TO a London newspaper two or
three weeks ago that the soldiers are
oored to death by -Tipperary." that the
song is taboo in the ranks, and almost
ANYTHING else is sung in preference. He
ADDS that the British Tommy scorns
sentimental patriotism. and only at
! long intervals and entirely out Of DO
likeness whistles the "Marseillaise. y
popular songs Of varying degrees of
propriety are liked; but best of all are
the improvised ditties on topical
events. This is one of the doleful
chants which are found excellent for
a marching measure.
Raining. raining. raining.
alWays blooming well raining;
Raining all the morning
And raining all the night
One still more popular runs:
We're here because we're here, because
we're here, because we're hers
We're here because we're here, because
were here, because we're here
No doubt the French soldier with his
refrains based on the virtues and
charms Of La Patrie would be hard pu,

the British lad is the British lad. and
no one can change him His songs are
perhaps the only true folk lore derived
from modern conditions.

Bird Gardens.
Indianapolis News.)


The roses have been tucked into bed,
the irls and tulips are sound asleep and
the Garden is lonely. Perhaps you
are little lonely. Perhaps YOU are
| a little lonely. too. The days
are dismal, and you are inclined to
think that this is the very time Of the
year when we need the flowers. Per
haps YOU miss your flowers enough TO
appreciate a bit OF news that is going
about They say that this is the time
to start bird gardens Very likely it
was bird that started the report
perhaps some OF the birds are lone
some, too-but whoever started it, and
no matter how selfish his motives may
have been, it is a good idea. A bird
garden Is the easiest sort Of garden
to start and the jolliest sort to enjoy.
A bit Of suet, a few bread crumbs and
basin Of water, and your garden is
planted. The birds respond with quick
appreciation and your garden is soon
full Of them. OF course. there are
sparrows, and you enjoy their friend
illness and good spirits, just as you en-
5oyed the commonest flowers in your
garden. The sparrows are not nearly
so selfish as you have been taught to
think, and they do not always keep the
other birds away. There are nuthat-
ches, woodpeckers, bluejays, chicka-
dees, a cautious brown thrush and
perhaps a blue bird. You thought they
had gone south? Well, birds are a
good deal like people and people are
forever talking about trips they never
take. There is scheech owl too, who
has been crying his loneliness all up
and down the creek, and, though he is
little distrustful, purple martin.
The birds flock to your free lunch
counter and free bath and neither you
nor your garden can be lonely. You
discover that the bluejay is an epicure
and that he likes eggs hard boiled. but
you give all your sunflower seed to the
ehickadees. Suddenly you become in
terested in bird architecture. You not
only feed your birds, but You build
houses for them and if you make their
houses sufficiently comfortable and
their food to their liking. who knows
