LIQUID tones was realized fully. Is
peciaIly effective was the singing o.
"a Love Song" and Farewell.
"FolIow Ne Down to Carlow" ar

by" a Gaelic air, lent a touch o.
plaIntive romance to the program.
Mr.. Albion was heartily acclaimed
for his singing Of Fri Tu, "Ballo H.
Maschera," by Verdi. His singing
of "The Pipes of Gordon's Men" by
Hammond, and Ecstasy" by Rum
nell, was most effective. He respond
ed to an encore with Mother o
Mine"

preston on the program, the audience
Joining with the club in singing the
chorus of "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner" and America" Mr.. Albion also

cored.

chorus with discretion, and Claude
Robson. who was a sympathetic ac-
companist, received a joint ovation al

how GARDENS MAY BE
RID OF SPARROW PEST
Uncle Sans Experts Give Rules
for Disposing Of Birds.

What can be done to keep spar
rows out of the vegetable gardenE
Several hundred Washington gard
eners are asking this question. the
sparrows and pigeons hve got into
many OF the gardens and pluckeo
the tops from some Of the fresh veg
etable plants. In only a lew cases
have they done material harm, how
ever.
The question is q hard one 10
answer. The Bureau OF Bird ECO
nomics of the Department Of Agricul-
turs today gave out three formulae
for getting rid OF the birds. One Is
To- hang a net over the gardens
another is to poison the birds, ana
the third is TO scare them away with
"scarecrows," waving rags, ana ca's'
The Poison Formula.
Inspector Gessford. of the Metro
politan Police Department, said there
was no law protecting the bird1' eN'
cept in cases where they We're prl'
vate property. He said there was
law prohibiting the promiscuou:
spreading of poison.
The poison formula given out D!
the Department OF Agriculture Is al
, ounce of alkaline strychnine In
pasty solution OF starch, spreao owe
twenty-four quarts of grain an'
sprinlkled in the garden. This Is to'
large a quantity for small garoens
but can be reduced accordingly.
Birds Can BE Scared Awny.
Experts of the Department OF Agrl
culture also advised as far as possible
the driving of OF the sparrow pest
by soaring them away. The birds car
be easily frightened off, and ever
though they are bothersome they VII
not seriously damage the crop II the!
can be kept away from 1t while II u
young and tender.
The sparrow particularly delights II
eating the tops of string beans ant
peas. He also plucks lettuce an'
cabbage leaves and other plants. Th'
best way to avoid the raids of tn
sparrow is to keep him out Of tn
