(From Christian Science Monitor.)
The undisturbed lives OF the birds
on the battle front is remarked upon
by q gunner in France. He speaks OF
the sudden burst Of song at dawn Of
day being wonderful. Thrushes and
blackbirds, he says. vie with dozen
different birds in q wild melody that
recalls shady lanes in the ''oid Coun-
Try" The SskyIark springs suddenly
from his nest In a tuft Of grass, and
mounts upwards singing his morning
song. 80 Above him the aero
planes circle surrounded by tiny
balls of white cloud. A moor-hen
stalks out of the reeds at the edge Of
the moat, and swims rapidly to the
other side. Hundreds OF sparrows
and starlings swoop down, chatter
ing and arguing, bathing at the edge
of q tiny rain-filled hollow, or col
lecting food for their young. A
white butterfly fiutters by
Magpies and jays are to be seen in
every direction. The surprising in
difference Of all the birds to gunfire
is extraordinary. Storks and herons
float past silhoutted black against
the sunset sky. The wild ducks some
times settle in the moat or sleep in
the swamp, but they are always gone
with the dawning. When the wealth
er is hazy long lines of. geese AMI
swans pass over, flying low towards
some favorite haunt. The grasshop-

song. The golden oriole, the wood
and willow warbler, are TO be heard;

Now Marys got two fellows
| With both she's dead in love,
The one works in the basement,
And the other clerks above.
Now, Mary's very pious;
She wants to do what's right,
She knows that ones ssrcastio.
And he seems to want to fight.
The other fellows smiling,
His ways are more serene,
She wants to wed this autumn
She's already past eighteen.
One fellows wearing whiskers
All across his noble breast,
She says: He's got some money;
For he's starting to invest"
The others face is shayen.
He needs no hairy shield;
His moneys been invested,
He's already in the field.
-
Now Mary's near demented,
For she don't known what to do.
Shed like to have a husband
But she can't marry two.
Dear me-" poor Mary painted;
IT'S not in their age or names,
Shall l wed the one with whiskers,
Or the one that's got the brains"
