A true friendship is one of human
kinds sweetest ties, and 1t should be

It requires a special kind Of pen,
which has case with spring holders
having one side free to move by
means Of their own elasticity. Chains
attached to these holders are fastened

plug for the cover has been put on.
the holders are forced away from the

WHY
Redbird Is Well Worthy
of Full Protection,

Redbird the Cardinal is member
of the Grosbeak, his full name being
Cardinal Grosbeak. Therefore he Is
member Of the Finch family Being
Finch he could hardly be less than
songster. AS matter of fact this
aristocrat among birds is doubly
blessed, having a coat of rare beauty
and a charming whistle. He is a
delight to both eye and ear. Perhaps
1t would be nearer the truth to say
that he is doubly unfortunate instead
of doubly blessed. In the past, these
exquisite birds were much sought as
cage birds and many were shipped to
Europe.
The cardinal is found from Florida
to Iowa, and as far north as southern
New York. He is, however, most fa-
miliar in the South. His coat is
bright rosy red and he sports jaunty
cap Of the same beautiful color. Even
his bill is red. His throat is black
and there is black about the base of
the bill.
Mrs. Redbird is not so handsomely
dessed, being quite soberly gowned
as becomes one on whom family cares
rest heavily and who, therefore, cam
not afford to be conspicuous. She is,
however, a charming singer, many
ranking her song above his.
Redbird is faithful husband and
father He delights to sing to his
mate while she is on the eggs, and
when the little birds are big enough
to leave the nest, he will take charge
Of them and lead them out for their
first lessons in the great world while
their mother prepares for second
brood.
Like all Finches, the cardinal is
seed-eater and renders splendid serv-
Ice in keeping In check variety Of
weed pests. He also eats some in
sects. All In all, he is citizen to be
encouraged and should be protected
everywhere. Especially during the
nesting season the Redbirds become
very useful In destroying insects

STATEMENT FROM MR.. PRES
COTT

Shortly before he left for Washing
ton Sunday to attend hurriedly call
ed conference of the State Food Adj
ministrators of the Nation, George
A. Prescott, federal food administra-
tor for Michigan, gave out the follow
ing statement.
Gwen, if peace should come at an
early date, it would not add one
pound of food to our supply. On the
contrary, it would enormously in
crease our food obligations because it
would allow us to reach with food
the people of Poland, Roumania, Ser
bia, Armenia, European Russia and
others who are now without adequate
food supply. The total number of
these peoples has been estimated at
10000, 900, some of whom have par
tial food resources and some of whom
are now literally in starving condi-
ton.
"While the end of the war;" Mr..
Prescott continued, twill release large
stores of food in the southern hemis-
phere, principally Australia and India,
these added stores of food will not
be sufficient to restore the starving
people of central and eastern Europe
to health and strength.
"For humanity's sake we must help
them; for the large self-interest Of
the future we should aid in their re-
storation. Building our own trade,
strengthening our own resources in
the economic struggle that, will fol-
low the war, would be reason enough,
but there is greater reason in the soul
Of things.
"Another thing" said Mr.. Prescott,
"the United States has more than
10000 men overseas and they are
still going over at rapid rate. One
of the immediate peace problems will
be to get these men transported back.
Military authorities estimate that it
will take at least two years. These
men must be fed and we will also be
drawn on by all Europe for food after
peace is declared. We can not there
fore let up on conserving food to pro-
tect our own soldiers overseas.
"Back of the successful drive of the
Allied forces is the strength furnish.
ed by American resources of every
sort. Every American returning
from France testifies to the overpow-
ering gratitude of the Allies. The
drive will continue till the triumph
over Germany is complete. And the
food drive must also be continuous.
The armies cannot keep it up except
as they are sustained by Americas
supplies. Maintenance of those sup
plies is possible only by the constant,
careful, conscientious saving of the
American people.
"Save food is the petition that must
reach every individual in the nation.
The Food Administration cannot lay
down stringent rules as it has done in
suggesting substitutes for wheatless
and meatless days because there is no
substitute for food. Even the Ger
mans have not been able to find that.
We can only increase our exports by
more careful saving of all foods"

At the request of Ira Nelson

Swedish department of justice
has ordered legal action brought
against the Stockholm Aftonbla-

power and made an attempt to
interfere with the amicable rela-
tions existing between Sweden
and the United States. Mr.. Nor
ris cites articles appearing in the
