develop into beauty spots on the
landscape.
Only in the last few years has the
robin enjoyed the protection due 1t.
The beauty in plumage and the hap
py song that he changes night n
morning should have won him a
! place in hte protected list long ago;
but his plump little body was nor
often thought of as food--an excuse
to Kill him, while the trouble to pre-
pare the flesh for the pie was an ex-
cuse TO throw the dead bird away.
A description of the bird is hard
IL necessary; everyone will decognize
the plump brownish and olive gray
fellow with a black head. throat
streaked with black and white and
the rusty red breast most prominent
in the male bird. The song OF the
robin is very expressive. In the
! morning when the tinting rays OF the
sun are Just beginning to appear, the
robin Will perch on some exposed
bough and MARBLE a real carroll to
the morning. a song that is entirely
different from anything he uses dur
ing the day. When his early mass is
finished he will usually search for
a convenient place for the morning
bath. Few birds seem 10 enjoy a
bath to the extent the robin does.
While at work during the day the
robin will seldom sing; his voice Is
used in different sharp cries thai are
readily understood by his fellows. At
evening the bird has another song
duty to perform. Vespers must be
sung to the bird world and the robin
never fails. His farewell to the sun
is just as fitting as his carroll to the
morning. The melody is low and
plaintiye like the iullabye and he will
sing until the last daylight bird has
sought his perch for the night and
the "whip-poor-wills" are coming TO
work for the night.
Robins are generally migrating
birds but il winter promises to be
mild they will remain in the north,
seeking shelter in the woods during
the storms and coming out on bright
days, thus fooling many of the seek
ers of signs of spring who declare
Spring Is here-I saw a robin"

and as the robin does not feed its
young by pumping partly digested
food from the crop of the parent into
that of the young birds as some bros
do il is unreasonable u think that
the birds eat the Strawberries at this
time of the year.
II has been told by some professor
Of Ornithology that a brood of young
robins will consume fourier feet of
angle worms in n day. Now every
boy has had the experience of dig
ging worms for bait; he is usually
armed with a shovel and will turn
up many feet OF soil before he finally
gathers in a small can of worms.
which would fall far short of four
teen lineal feet OF wrigglers. If
stretched out. The robin has no
means of digging into the soil; he
! must watch for some outward sign
from the worm before he can ar
tempt a capture. So We can readily
see If the little family is 20 be fed
the parent birds have plenty of work
to do without bothering about the
destruction of strawberries
How many people have really
watched a robin as it hops over the
ground. busy at worm catching? Not
many. or they would not accuse this
industrious fellow of being a fruit
thief. Watch him carefully once and
notice how he turns his head from
side u side while the bright black
eyes take in observation every inch
OF the surrounding ground. Sudden
ly ne will dart to a spot that will not
show the slightest indication OF a
worm TO thehuman eye, wen through
the field glasses. but will surely de-
yelop a worm for the robin Now
you will see him use the same pre-
caution in pulling out the worm that
the small boy has learned to use.
after several attempts to get a bait
out by one straight pull. Every boy
knows that the worm will pull apart
IL he tries to pull it out rapidly; he
knows that ne must get the worm
I started, then give IL a little slack and
pull again, II he wants the whole
Wonm. The Robin knows all about
this trick. You can see him take the
end of the worm in his bill and then
teeter back and forth, taking up the
slack as his victim is slowly drawn
out of the earth.
Many people will ask, what harm
does the earth worm do? Some even
say that they are a benefit to the
soil. IL you want to find out the
harm these so-called angle worms do,
Just put a few of them in the soil
around some potted house plant and
watch the plant gradually lose the
healthy green color and finally die.
These earth worms r nitrogen feed
ers; they absorb the nitrogen from
the soil and nitrogen is absolutely
necessary to plant life. so Mr..
Robin Red-breast. i" as he is called In
England, is one OF our hes, friends

IN the introduction of these articles.
In the fall of the year the robin
becomes a ~seed-eater. The young are

directors commencing Hoyes for his
efficient work" congratulating him
on his purpose of going lover there"
and taking pride in the fact that the
Topeka Central Y. NJ. c. A. was to be
represented in the great conflict in
France.
With this spirit in mind Hoyes left
Topeka March 81 for his work in
France.
Within a month a secretary, N w
Benning, of Albuquerque, N. M, was
called in to look over the situation
and to fill the years absence of Hoyes.
Benning, however. was elected with
the understanding that if he made
good" he might, continue his work
indefinitely. And yet a month prev
ious to this promise Hoyes was sent
to France with plaudits and congratu
lations
When asked concerning this action
Of the board today Hoyes said:
81 was not notified of this appoint
ment but at the May meeting of the
board a composite letter was sent to
me expressing good will. Not one
word was written concerning the
boards action in filling my place.
No Word In Defense.
mot until I returned to Topeka
February 8 this year did I realize what
had happened Then I was ap-
preached with the suggestion that I
request the board of directors to ac-
cept my resignation. I cancelled my
resignation and demanded a meeting
with the board at their regular session
last night. I was refused. I was not
given an opportunity to say a word
in my own defense"
George Hoyes has served the To-
peka Central Y. NJ. c. A. eight years.
He is the first man to return wearing

ing to the figures on hand. when there
was a debt of $10.115.79 upon the
building. During his term of service
the building was cleared of indebted
ness for the first time in history, it is
said.
When the present secretary took
charge there was I. S30S.55 debt still

Chicago. ILL., March ,15.-The Tribune:
GRAIN-A bearish construction was put on
the reported recommendation of a max

the packers yesterday Corn traders rs SOLD 90

They argued that present level of prices
discounted all bullish factors and with the
food administration. who were understood
to be at the bottom of the movement to
check the advancing tencency of hogs and
provisions, they saw nothing but lower
prices. A few operators took a decidedly
different view of the situation in corn
and hogs. They said the placing of max
imum price on hogs or product was bullish,
as it called attention to the fact that it has
n high intrinsic value or a restriction would
be unnecessary. One trader said the weak
ness displayed at the close was overdone
and predicted higher prices should there be
a weak or lower opening. With an $50
level for hogs it means high prices for
corn, as he saw it. Oats are losing friends
and meet heavy selling on all bulges At
the same time it was noticeable that ca sh

TO COLLECT BILLION

Premier Clemenceau, probably will be
executed within fifteen days, it was
announced today.
The young anarchist was convicted
and sentenced late yesterday after a
trial lasting but a few hours. He was

but declared during his examination
that had he escaped he might have
made another attempt of the pre-

He admitted he was "filled with
emotion" the day of the shooting, say
ing that only a lunatic would have
failed to show emotion at such a time,
especially as 1 realized what was
coming to me afterward"

NOT FOR FARMERS
Eight Hour Day Has No Appeal to
Men of Soil.

Boston, March 15.-Charles w.
Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard
uni ersity, told legislative committee
that it was ineXpedient, not to say alb
surd to attempt to fix by law the same
number of hours of labor in each in
dustry or for all establishments in
any industry. He urged that employ
ers and employees should abandon sus-
picion of each other and agree on a
common plan of action. When George

were in favor of an eight-hour day

ing so that it cannot be put on an

ToDAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago. March 15.-CORN-Preespe
of a maximum limit being placed on hog
values here had only temporary bear1sh
effect today on the corn market The
fact that the hog market continued to show
strength was disconcerting to traders who
looked for pronounced weakness in corn.
Announcement that Germany had definitely
accepted provisioning conditions imposed
by the allies helped the corn market to
rally. Opening prices which varied from
unchanged figures to 1Ac lower with May
$1.3415 to 1851 and July S1.2oA to Sl-2o12,
were followed by a moderate decline and
then by upturns that in some cases reach
ed above yesterdays finish.
Subsequently demand broadened and
decided bulge in price took place. Talk of
export business was current but not con-
ffrmed. The market closed unsettled, 11ac
to 3%c net higher with May $1.371A to
$1.3SH and July $1.32 TO S1.321a.
OATS-Oats paralle1ed the action of corn.
After opening nc to 9sc down with May
61%c to G1kc the market sagged little
further and then recovered.
PROVISIONS-Provis were governed
by the same influences grain. Selling
was of a scattering sort.
Sharp advances took place in the late
trading as a result of corn strength.
