tincton.

"That Is Bird Island
Over There, and
the Birds

are protected by the u. S. Govern
ment," said the Florida gentleman
as we passed in little boat.
The person to whom he was
speaking asks if the Government
puts their food in their nests for
them, and the reply is, "Oh, no, there
is plenty of food provided for them,
but they have to go after it and find
it for themselves. Look there, see
that flock of hundreds of wild
ducks; they are on their way now to
the feeding grounds for their break
fast, and you will see scores of
them dashing down and snatching
fish from the sea. Some birds have
hollow bones and dOwny feathers
and are able to float even in stormy
ocean and find food"
Every living thing, man included,
finds the earth and sea are each
granary and stOrehOuse, with
abundance for every creature, but
each living thing must go after the
food and not wait for some other to
put it in it's nests.
Man was made to be active and
earn his food by the sweat of his
brow, for his self-respect and health
as we'll, and birds can be trained and
made wise enough to conduct a
postal service or to be purveyOrs of
food to discouraged man as in the
case of Elijah, and man is enjoined
to not disturb their nests where
their little children are and fed by
parent birds.
1t is decree that there is plenty
for all our needs, but we must use
our own faculties to obtain supplies.
