We are having some drills in
marching now and in a few
weeks we will march out and in
to the building like we were Ger
man soldiers. The main thing
we will have to learn is not to
march like too many soldiers.
Too many of us take advantage
when the line is keeping step
and stomp" the stairs. Of
course it is a very smart thing
for high school pupils to stomp"
the stairs but it is very wearing
to the steps and to anyones ner-
yes who has a little more refined
idea of smartness.

The first football game of the
season will be played tomorrow,
Wednesday, on the High School
field. The second scrub has been
slightly weakened since it was
organized as several of its men,
bers have deserted to the first
scrub, mainly because of its
name, which name it has only
because it was organized first.
The second scrub will put up a
big fight and if it is beaten the
opposing side will know that
they have been in a game of foot
ball. The winning team, in its
place as scrub, will probably
play the varsity in a few practice
games until that position is
wrested from it.

One Of the most useful and wide ly known American birds is the killdeer or Viciforus. . It S food consists largely of insects, as beetles, grasshoppers, caterpil- lars, ants, bugs, dragon flies, cad dis flies and two winged flies. II also feeds on centipedes, spiders, ticks, snails, crabs. and othr cru stacia. About 2.2s per cent IS vegetable matter, chiefly wood seeds, such as buttonwood, smart weed, foxtail grass and night shade. Among beetles consumed are those that work in alfalfa, eotton-boll. clover root, clover leaf, lice cowpeas, apples, grapes, corn. sweet potatoes, tobacco and beets. Caterpillars and other spesles ot insects injurious to fruit and vegetables are favorite articles of diet of "Norciforus as well as horseflies and mosqui- tos and their alrvae, thus be frlend'ng man and domestic ani- mals. IL also eats cattle ticks that cause enormous loss n some parts of the South.
 In all, about 9s per cent ot the hllldeer $ food Is composed of in- sects, many of them crop pests and as an economic factor the blrd k worth many thousand tmes more than the few mouth fnls Of flesh it $ body affords the hunter.
