centers where local banks are not
large enough to advance the funds.

PROTECT THE BIRDS.

It is timely appeal which is being
 made by the National Association of
 Audubon societies for the feeding of the wild birds. As the result of the
 snow and ice which covers New Eng
 land and the extreme cold weather
 which has been experienced it is prop
 CT that attention should be given to the game and insectivorous birds if we expect to enjoy their benefits and company during the coming season. It IS to be expected that large numbers of those which winter in this latitude have been killed by the especially se-
 were weather that has been expeI,- fenced but those which have survived are i1avingla harder time than ever tn
 secure sufficient sustenance because ci prevailing conditions.
 There is thus a great opportunity f., giving them the food which is require q to carry them along to the time Wl1eI they can pick up their own living. ard 1 the suggestion of the national asso citation agents to the effect that hay . l seed, chaff from the barn floor crumbs scraps of meat. bones and suet bs scattered where they can obtain it is
 an excellent one. Those who are ferd cf hunting are. often interested ir propaSating game. They should b. equally interested in helping the birds
 tc weather the rigors of winter. Those
 who like to have the other birds about should be eager to do the little b:t which such assistance will give tt keep them from starving to death and it is as one agent says not only fine l philanthropy but a paying investment

FIGHTING THE SUBMARINES,

It was only a short time ago that much enthusiasm was displayed over the success that was being attained by the operations against the submarines. There were those who maintained that the crisis had been passed and that it would be possible henceforth to cope with the activity of the enemy in that direction. There can be no question but what the naval forces of the al- lied nations are improving their po- sition in regard to new ships and that they are making serious inroads into the number of underwater boats by the employment of new methods and devices for their destruction, but the success which has attended the war fare of the\submersibles since the re- cent claims were made indicate that they may not have been entirely jus tified, or thatzthey were put forth too soon to really jibe with the prevailing facts.
 Since they have been made there have been substantial gains in the

number of vessels which have been sunk. This means that ships which are carrying supplies to our allies are not cnly hefhg feged but that the supplies afsA sofas tc tiies bottom in greater volume. aa lat. this loss Is not only experiesssd k5st6 that we must make it up out Sethg supplies which we have reserved sfdMs our oya needs. Germany has apparently taken occasion to show that there was less ground for elation over the success attained in fighting the submarines than was claimed. But whether it is putting forth any greater efforts or whether there has been any relaxa- tion on the part of the destroyer fleet, it is quite evident that the submarine activities have not been curtailed to .he point where they can be ignored.
