BLACKBIRDS BECOMING NUI-
SANCE.

The blackbird, long considered one
of the most inoffensive of the feath-
cred tribe, is now in danger OF be-
coming classed with the English
sparrow and others that have made
their names synonyms OF aversion.
The blackbird is beginning to learn
some of the most disagreeable habits
of the sparrow, such as perching in
the tops of trees in the residence dis
tricts in the early hours of the morn
ing. when citizens are trying to get
a little desirable sleep, and making
more noise than the average citizen
likes to hear.
In some sections of the city the
blackbirds have become such pests
that the citizens have restored to the
use of shotguns in an effort to drive
them away. They come in over
whelming numbers and by their con
tinued noise drive the citizens to the
point of wishing there was no sucn
thing as a blackbird.
A Paris travelling man, VINO
makes a great deal Of territory IN
Central Kentucky which is the nat
ural habitat of the blackbird, states
that the same conditions are prevail
ing there and that the birds are com
ing into the fields in great numbers
and even getting their living from
many of the growing crops.

WOMANS CLUB ENDORSES STATE
SOLDIERS MEMORIAL

The Women's Club of Central
Kentucky has given it's cordial en-
dorsement to the project for a memo
rial building at the University of
Kentucky as tribute to those Ken
tucktans who gave their lives for
their country in the war with Ger
many, and for which a campaign to
raise 100000 in the State and from
alumni of the University, whether
now residents of Kentucky or not, is
to be launched soon. Miss N. Isabel
Schmidt, president of the club, in a
letter to the committee in charge of
the memorial building fund, SUBJ
mitted the resolution in which the
club endorsed the project.
The plan has the endorsement of
the Board of Trustees of the Uni
versity, which took favorable action
on the project at a recent meeting of
its executive committee. The Univer-
sity furnished 1,068 men for the diff
ferent branches of the service, in
Guiding alumni, and of these twenty
gave their lives. Kentucky furnished
between 400 and $500 men who
were killed in action or died of
wounds or disease in the service.
Judge E. w. Hines, chairman of
the Kentucky Council of Defense, has
been chosen as the head of the move
ment in the State and he will be
assisted by a committee of fifty of
Kentucky's most prominent men and
women interested in the University
and it's future. The actual work of
the drive for the fund will be finish
ed in September.

INTERESTING LETTER

The following letter was received
recently by the Misses Whaley, of
This city from their sister, Miss Nell
Whaley, who is Reconstruction Aide
at Camp Upton, Long Island.
! Miss Whaley Is teaching English
and Mathematics to the disabled SOL
dlers at the Base Hospital. Since be-
ing there she has been promoted to
the position of Assistant to the head
Reconstruction Aide:
Base Hospital, Camp Upton, N. Y.
June 8, 1919.
DEAR SISTERS:
Last week we had visit and a
most inspiring talk from Major
Evans, Of Washington, the man who
is at the head of the Reconstruction
Service. He gave us some interest
ing statistics. During one week of
April, in 80 military hospitals, 49,
600 treatments were given by the
700 Physio therapy Aides for nerve
injuries. During the month of April,
in 43 hospitals, there were working
2,O34 Occpational-Therapy Aides,
teaching the wounded soldiers how
to regain the use of their muscles in
the making of baskets, bead-chains,
carved boxes, woven rugs and mats,
belts, neck-ties, bags, and so on In
addition, this work helps wonderfully
to keep up their spirits, and so is of
double curative value. Out of 2,14S
S. G. D. cases (Surgeon's Certificate
of Disability discharged in April,
only Is were institutional cases; and
out of 7,145 cases discharged between
1 hnr nd ~,
stitutional. Of the 34,400 hospital
population, SO per cent. were availa-
BILE for reconstruction service, and
IS per cent of that number were en-
gagged in some work. Major Evans
stated that the women workers were
up to the highest standard and
graded 100 per cent, and that they
more than any other class of people
could put pep and the proper spirit
for the future into the wounded sol
diers. He said the boys should be
encouraged to quit thinking and
talking about the dreadful affair,
and not let their interests in life end
with their war experiences, as the
majority of Civil War veterans did.
I 1.-The result of the government s
Reconstruction program are greatly
praised in the magazine Garry On.
Many hundreds of boys are being re-
educated, one boy having said, "The
education I am getting in this hos
pital is worth the leg 1 left in
France" At our hospital there are
about so Reconstruction Aides at
work, teaching the boys in the wards,
many Of whom are fiat on their backs
or so injured they cannot work. IT
| is wonderful to see the work they dc
with the left hand. The ambulatory
patients go to K-12, the big school
building, where they are taught any
thing from English to auto-mechan-
les, telegraphy, typewriting, mechan-
ical drawing, clay-moulding, advanc-
ed English and Mathematics, Science,
Psychology, in fact, any study they
call for. It Is interesting to note
that nearly all the boys are ambitious
to learn something new, or if they do

PEAR.

Two new rubber tires and inner
tubes, costing in the neighborhood of
S68, are mOurned as personal prop
erty loss by Mr.. E. e. Lands, of the

the new tires and tubes from a local
garage, and fastening them to the
side of his car, started down Main
street. After proceeding about a
block he stripped the gears of his

straps giving evidence that they had
been stolen. The police were Motif
