Attention, Boys!

This newspaper has been requested
to call the attention of the boys Of the
town to very bad thing they are do
ing. And probably doing thought
lessly.
We have been told that lot Of the
boys are preying upon our little feath :
cred friends; they are killing them
by the score, using slingshots, rifles,
and box traps. One lady told US that a
lovely pet pigeon had had one leg shot
eff by some unthinking lad
We have no desire to scold the boys
We remember having done the same
thing when youngster. This desire t.
slaughter the harmless little birds is
undoubtedly in response 10 that Unborn

What do you say, kids, let's stop it!
Wouldn't it be much better to treat
the birds as friends and give them our
protection? They're beautiful little
things. They sing for our enjoyment.
They fit about all summer and add a
lovely note to the out of doors. What
good does it do to kill them? And they
not only give pleasure to us but they
are of great value. Do you know men
tell us that if 1t were not for the birds
insects would multiply in such count
less billions that they would destroy
every living herb, tree and plant and
mankind would starve to death.
This slaughter of the birds is es-
pee ally bad this year Everyone knows
tina. thousands Of them were killed this
sizing by the late cold snap that came
after the birds had returned from their
winter home in the south. Hence the
birds are unusually scarce this year and
should by all means be protected.
Boys, it's lot more fun to study the
birds, to learn how they live and build
their nests and raise their young; tc
learn to appreciate the loveliness cl
then coloring and their Lcauty Of line
and form. That's much more fun thar
