ANNOUNCEMENTS
Lecture for eird Lovers.


 To the bird lover and to one who appreciates beauty. the illustrated lec- ture on Bird Lore to be given at the Osgood Memorial on Friday evening, should be especially interesting.
 Wilbur F. Smith, game and bird warden of Fairfield county, Conn.,. teaches many things about birds un- known to the majority of people. The report of a previous lecture says 1t was one grand hour of motion pictures of nature, the ever changing slides de- picting something new and interesting with each picture"
 He has many slides of birds native in these parts, also many Of those not common here, such as the white robin. sea gulls, etc. Shore birds, those who live in open meadows. others who make their homes in the thickest part of the woods, are shown in their nat ural colors and scenery.
 In addition to these, he shows birds in their native haunts. nests with eggs therein, the care of the motherbird. and the watchf1lness of both mother and father and those of birds claimed to be destructive, such as the owl and the starling. Pictures are taken in summer, spring, others in autumn and perhaps the most beautiful of all in winter, the snowy covering lending a touch that appeals.
 This lecture is to be given under the auspices of Parish House Association, in answer to repeated appeals of bird lovers in Norwich and deserves the patronage of all who love birds and wish to know moro of them. It will be interesting both to adults and children.
