Members of the Highland avenue bird
club have an argument that Washington
street bird fancieTs could not have seen
phpbes week ago, when the report
came out, and they take their stand by
quoting Schuyler Matthews. who spoke
at a meeting of the Woman's club in the
nature department. Mr.. Matthews says
the phoebe is not seen in winter and the
love note of the chickade is the same
as that of the phpbe. The Highland
avenue people who are making an ex-
tended study of birds and their habits
claim that it is impossible to see phoebe
in the winter season OF the year.
