III ALL THE BIRDS DIED.

"Wero all the birds 10 perish, men
would speedily follow them. Al the
end OF ten years the insects unchecked
would have eaten every thing"
So writes Ncltjc l'lanclan in Birds
Worth Knowing. Even in winter,
there are some birds that "carry on"
hunting out and destroying Tie eggs
that nre to hatch next summers
hOrds of insect pests, where they are
hidden hcneath the bark of trees.
in this winter warfare the wood
pc:ker does valiant service.
Inspecting each crevice where moth
or hcttlc might lay her eggs, he
works his way around IL tree from
top to bottom, now stopping to listen
for the stirring Of n borcr under the
smooth, innoccnt-loolsing bark, now
tapping mt II suspicious point and
quickly drilling II holo where there is
Il prospect of heading off his victim.
Using his bill as II chiscl and mallct
and his long tongue as a barbed
spear TO draw the grub from its
ncthcrmost hiding place, he lets moth
ing escape him. Boring beetles, tree
brng cterpeillars, timber ants, and
other insects which are inaccessible
to other birds, must yield their re-
luctant bodies to that merciless bard
ed tongue.
The cheerful chickadee is also an
ally not to be dcspised. Since "ih IL
single day he will sometimes cat
more than four hundred eggs of the
apple piant-oCa:, while throughout
the winter ore will ostroy an i'm
mcnse nmbcr l. eggs of the anker-
worm.

Commercial Fishing in Florida

There is considerable agitation
pro and con over the state with re-
gard to the fishing laws and it is
expected that there will be a num-
Der of delegations sent to the leg
islature to have things fixed to
suit the various communities.
The general sentiment seems to
have crystalized in the direction
of the conservation of the fish of
both salt and fresh waters and in
order to do this all attempts to
have seining legalized in the riv-
ers, lakes and bays will probably
be met with little encouragement
SEEMING would soon deplete the
waters of the best food fish and it
is evident that it is only the mer-
cenary fish dealers who are seek
ing such legislation. Hundreds of
fish dealers have made money
catching commercial fish with Gill
nets, which only take the larger
fish and that should be sufficient
for anybody Times-Union.

Tall Cathedral Candles Shed Soft Glow
Over Bridal Party at the Payne
Rowland Nuptials Tuesday
Bridegroom's F ath er as
Best Man Lent Charm
To Ceremony

Tall cathedral candles shed their
soft glow over the banks of ferns
and smilax and myriads of roses
which transformed the altar of the
First Central Congregational church
into bower Of beauty Tuesday
evening when the marriage of Miss
Marjorie Helen Rowland to Richard
Fuller Payne was solemnized. The
Rev. Frank Smith read the marriage
lines.
AS the first strains of the wedding
march sounded the wedding party
entered, Miss Margaret Gamble, a
charming picture in a gown of Nile
green satin, trimmed in sequins,
made with a long train. A georg-
cite hat of lavendar trimmed with
morning glories was worn by this at
tractive maid of honor and a corsage
bouquet OF lavendar sweet peas COM
pleted a striking costume. Mrs.
Clarence Sibbernsen's gown was of
orchid satin with a long court train
of silver cloth. A picture hat of
lavendar georgette was worn and
shower bouquet of lavendar sweet
peas tied with futtering ribbons was
carried. Mrs. Frank Selby wore a
smart gown in the pastel shades
and a large hat of lavendar georg-
cite crepe. Her shower bouquet
was of pink and lavendar sweet peas.
The very lovliest bride Of the sea-
son was Miss Rowland in her we'd
ding gown Of cleaning satin, the
bodice heavily embroidered in pearls
and brilliants. The long court train
was caught with bow knots of tulle
and rose buds and from a tiny Di-
rectoire cap the long, t1lnly veil hung
to the hem of the gown. Fragrant
lilies of the valley and orchids
formed a shower bouquet Of rare
beauty.
An unusual and beautiful touch to
the ceremony was given by the pres
ence of the bridegroom's father, Mr.
George H. Payne, who served as
best man.
The Rowland home was beautiful
ly decorated for the reception which
followed the ceremony. Tall white

From Cooks to Chemists

But woman's work is never

comes to Omaha women from the
federal employment service in the
court house.
The armistice has not lessened the
need OF women workers, according
to the calls for girls in the books
OF the employment service.
There is just more of a shake-up
IN the kind and the salaries Of

We have more calls for work

cooperation OF Omaha women and
girls even TO a greater degree" said
Miss Elizabeth Stearns, who is in

been so excellent that the calls ex-
ceed the applicants.
An average of from 800 to 400

leased since the armistice, there is
an unprecedented demand for wo-
men workers.
we cooperate with the visiting
nurses, the United Charities, the

firms of Omaha, and vicinity said
one secretary.
There is absolutely no charge for
registration for any position BY the
federal service. which is part of the
Department OF Labor.
Every place is investigated before
anyone is sent to fill it. There are
standing calls from the largest firms
in Omaha which are open to girls
and women of certain type during
my season.
