We want girls with hearts; girls
with tenderness and sympathy,
with tears that flow for others ills,
and smiles that light outward their
sunny thoughts. We have clever
girls and witty girls and brillirnt

Jolly unaffected, natural girls,
warm hearted girls, with lots of

can go out and romp in the snow
and wash the snow in each others

snow ball and think it no forfeiture

1octu,nal. The nighthawk often flies
by day, when the white bar across
the wing and its nasal cry are dis
tinguishing.
Range Breeds throughout most of
the United States and Canada; win.
tiers in South America.
Habits and economic status: The
skillful evoiutions of a company of
nighthawks as the birds gracefully
cleave the air in intersecting circles
Is a sight to be remembered. So ex.
pert are they on the wing that no In.
sect is safe from them, even the swift
dragonly being captured with ease.
Unfortunately their erratic flight
tempts men to use them for targets,
and this inexcusable practice is seri.
ously diminishing their numbers,
which is deplorable, since no birds
are more useful. This species makes
no nest, but lays its two-spotted eggs
on tire bare ground, sometimes on the
gravel roof of the city house. The
nighthawk is a voracious feeder and
Is almost exclusively insectivorous.
Some stomachs contained from 80 to
80 different kinds of insects, and more
than 600 kinds have been identified
from the stomachs thus far examined.
From 500 to 1000 ants are often found
In a stomach. Several species of mos
uuitoes, including Anopheles, the
transmitter of malaria, are eaten. 9th
er well-known pests destroyed by the
nighthawk are the Colorado potato
beetle, cucumber beetles, chestnut,
rice, clover-leaf and cotton-boll wee

bugs, and moths of the cotton worm.
