CALLED PARADISE OF BIRDS
Great Lake Region Abounds in Rare
Songsters - Attracted by the
Many Lakes.

The lake region of Michigan and
Wisconsin has been described as the
paradise of birds"
In Michigan alone 300 species of
birds have been identified. The great
lakes and the thousands of lesser
lakes add to the bird life by calling to
these waters the aquatic birds Mich
igan has many birds whose habitat is
in the far north around Hudson bay
and others that live in the states
south of Michigan, even along and be-
yond the Gulf of Mexico. The first
are Illustrated by the Bohemian wax
wing, spruce partridge, Canadian jay
and others, while the summer red
bird, the hooking bird and the card
inal red bird illustrate the second
group.
The great lakes attract many birds
that are usually maritime, such as
gulls and terms.
Michigan abounds in Iakes-there
are 425, for instance, within a 25-mile
radius of Battle Creek-and there are
the nesting places for many interesting
birds not found elsewhere

HLIvinu Whist"

The game of living whist" is fol-
lower, and a most unsatisfactory one,
as matter of fact, of the game of
living chess" The latter has been
given frequently in out-of-doors fetes.
The ground is marked in squares, like
a huge chessboard, and the pieces are
represented by women and men in cos
tunes that indicates their positions
queens, bishops, knights, pawns, etc.
The game is played by the directions
of two persons seated on thrones at
the edge of the board. the pieces max
ing the moves indicated by them.
Living whist" followed this scheme,
but by its nature was far less success
full. The board and squares were lack
ing and the game did not lend itself
to the scheme OF such a game as
living bridge" or living auction,
however. we can find no record, and
it is most unlikely that such game
could be played at all, as the bidding,
which is, of course, the real essence
of these games. would be an impossi-
bility.

Si0n of Rain

An East side girl says she has come
upon an infallible weather indicator,
reports the Columbus (O) Dispatch.
She could tell if it is going to rain
without even glancing at the sky or
casting her eyes over the weather
forecasts in the daily papers. And
it's the simplest thing in the world
just the disappearing of all UNI
brellas from sight
Umbrellas are perfectly safe in our
office up to "a hours before a storm, .
said she, explaining. You can leave
them anywhere. Even the pearl and
gold-handled ones are immune from
abstraction. Indeed, one can hardly
chase them away. So, if l want to
know the weather for a day ahead

of those that are left and make all
other necessary plans for rain"

1t would be interesting to know
whether the commander Of the German
submarine that torpedoed the Norwe-
gian steamer Trondhjemsfjord was in
pursuit of duty or of sport The
steamer was ON the way from New
York to Bergen, Christiansand and 9th
er Norwegian ports, carrying nothing,
apparently, to any enemy of Germany,
nor was she carrying any goods of an
enemy to a foreign customer. But she
was torpedoed, and it looks from this
distance as if the destruction of the
boat was more Of a sporting event than
a military procedure. The sympathy of
the Norwegians was with Germany in
the early stages of the war, but the
repeated attacks of submarines on
ships flying the flag of Norway have
made the people of that country very
bitter against the Kaiser.

BY His Enemies.
(Rutland Herald. J

The most significant tribute to the
importance of the Weeks boom for the
Republican nomination for President
comes from Golfers Weekly
That periodical thrives on destruc-
ton and undertaking. It's circulation
depends on the number and virulenco
of its attacks on business. Like all
destroyers, it has aided in the destruc-
ton of some things that are bad. 1t
has UNNECESSARILY injured many bust
nesses that deserved better things. 1t
now attacks Senator Weeks.
In connection with this attack, it
gives abundant testimony to the grow
ing Importance attached to the Weeks
boom by saying:

can nomination for the presidency ii

senator S powerful hackers. If things
go along for a year as they are today,

dates merely receptive, then Senator
Weeks would be the most powerful fig
ure in the convention q year from now.
The Weekly admits that the record
of Senator Weeks "has not been un
worthy but declares solemnly that
his business, that of a stock-broker
makes his nomination impossible.
The Herald s survey of Republicai
principles has never disclosed the fact
| that a business man would be barred
| from receiving it's nomination for any
honorable office.
| 1t has never accepted the insane
proposition that the way to make ma

recently has pointed unmista kabl,

Where do you suppose the best quail
ity of rice sold in the markets Of the
United States comes from? 1t was
raised in Arkansas, where nearly 100,-
900 acres were given over to the cul-
tivation of the crop last year. The
area Of land in Arkansas adaptable to
rice growing is almost as large as the
entire state of Vermont. An authority
says that the northern farmer with
good judgment, who has been success
full in raising small grains, should be
equally successful in raising rice
which, in fact is a small grain like
wheat, barley and oats. But while rice
cultivation is very profitable to en-
gage in it even on a moderate scale re
quires a capital of $4,000 to $4,000
aside from the investment in land.
