JEWETI CITY

The Aux. one of the leading ornitholog- ical journals of America has in it's July issue in an article. Notes on Breeding of the Rusty Blaekbird in Northern New England. by Fred H Kenhard, a story told by William Lyman Underwood about finding a nest in the top of an old stump standing in the water Owing to the diff culty of nhotegraphing the nest and eggs, he had his guides saw off the stump and carry it across the lake. perhaps one quarter of a mile to beach, where he set it up and photographed it, They then brought the stump back and replaced it securely on it's foundation and, the female returning continued her parental duties and raised her young
 This story is actually surpassed by an experience at home. A Jewett City man was driving along one of the Stone Hill roads when he noted white birch stub beside the road with an old hole drilled through one side where 8 woodpecker had a nest in some past summer There was moss hanging from the stub. It was quite picturesque and the man conceived the idea that it would add to the attractive ness of a room at home if it were set up in the corner. At a nearby house he procured 2 saw and. cutting off the stub at the proper length. brought it home anu set Ii up tS lie Hdu planned. NeXt day, he detected a faint peep from deep down in the stub. Investigating he found a chickadees nest within with four little birds The man returned to Stone Hill wiah all possible speed and with hammer and nails replaced the stub in it's original position. The mother chickadee came back, took possession and raised her brood

in the glass He was Philadelphia dis tiller in 1840 It is said that his name introduced booze into the yernacular. The boozer is one who drinks intoxicating liquors. In the hard rum time we devel-
 oped a distinct class of boxers They are
 still with us, and want their booze. Some
 of them have provided for the drouth by
 laying in stock of liquor. In one mans
 cellar there was found 30 barrels. all for
 private use. Some depend upon what
 they can get to satisfy that craving drinking wood alcohol or Jamaica ginger
 The present condition of the trade is a
 great embarrassment to these men, and
 they cry out against the law. After a strong argument for prohibition the speaker concluded:
 What can we do to prevent the rein statement of the brewers? No change can be made without the action of the United States congress. Every candidate for the
 house or senate who has been a friend oi | the liquor men, or who will not pledge ] himself to sustain the present enforce ment law should be defeated at the polls l We must insist that all municipal. state and federal officers be alert and impartia l in. the enforcement of the law we now | have.

Many of his characters are drawn in inc sim Die. foreeful style of Plutarch The big and lofty things have a pecu1;sr anreaI 10 thls author. and when he is in the vein his descriptive powers approach the hhest classic models. There is s necu- iiar sweep in his style which is most effective in the assembling of ciirna ana the unexpected solution Of a mvs- tery. Zane Grey loves mystery, and nften 1t is intricate. but Always 1t is fascinating, defying the best guesses of ms readers. Zane Grey has what may be called picture mind. which AZ counts for the success of all the ecreen versions of his works. He thinks fn terms Of the screen, and therefore th. work of the director very often means nothing more than resolving the crvsfa1- hEation of the printed page into its original pictorial parts.
 There Is very distinct indiyiduaii.S- to every one of Zane Grey's pictures. He departed somewhat from his general sub- Ject in the selection of the play.
