He sees bold bluejay drive q chick
adee out OF the feeder and he begins
to run q temperature.
He has read somewhere that blueiays
are nuisance at feeding station.
He overlooks that they are beautiful,
interesting birds, and that they seldom
stay at feeder more than Is minutes.
The remainder Of the day they are
winging their lordly way through the
air.
Pretty soon the observer begins to
see that his emotions are running away
with him.
Why, what he undertook as fun is
leading him merely into daily anger
AS If there weren't already enough
ways OF getting mad" in the world!
Anger needs no birds. 1t is on tap
with many persons at the slightest
thing, and always leads to unhappiness
The bird observer comes to realize that
II his new sport Is to be worth while to
him he must carefully erase from his
mind the wrinkles and creases that it
is causing him.
With this salutary change of mind,
usually comes great peace.
He at last sees what his feeding sta
ton is for, and why the free lunch he
offers to the creatures must be for all
that choose to accept 1t.
This way, he realizes, is natures way
The squirrels, wise man has pointed
out, do not put false values on the nuts
they collect, but take them as they fall
and eat them all to good purpose.
The man or woman who, in goodness
of heart, begins to feed the birds, must
carefully guard mind and heart against
the baser emotions.
Bird feeding is q part of bird con-
Servation, and the latter offers no re-
wards to the person who pursues it with
malice toward any living creature. 1t
is true that at times certain steps will
have to be taken to end nuisances, but
these mostly turn out to be of far less
moment than the viewer though them
at first.
In this sport, as in so many others, one
easily loses a sense of balance and pro-
portion.
1t Is far more sheer fun, and far
closer to the idea of protection. to permit
all creatures to share in the feast of the
feeding station, than to become per-
turbed the moment something happens
in the yard that is not exactly as one
had planned.
Few things in this world are 100 per
cent, despite the claims.
just as one has affixed the suet
basket to the fence. big black woolly
dog lopes in seizes the basket and makes
away with it, suet and all.
Well, why curse the dog?
Viewed properly, the dog and his act
make mighty good comedy. and if
basket is lost because of it, well, one
can learn great deal from the expert
ence. If no more than to attach the
basket TO the fence better next time.
Be sure of your sparrows
The person who comes to know and
look for the fox sparrows, those comical
fellows: the lovely song sparrows, and
the white -throated ones, in time will
realize that their English cousins are
not as bad as they have been painted.
He will thus save himself a great deal
of trouble and confusion, both of heart
and mind, and be nearer to the real
meaning of help to others, whether
man or beast.

That History repeats herself
We say in accents wise.
Yet, when she does, each mortal el
Is filled with great surprise.
Old problems and old fashions, too,
From meath the cobwebs gray
Come bravely prancing into view
To make us grave or gay.
So money causes folk to fight
And beauty does the same;
And men as centuries take flight
Still play the same old game.
When History herself repeats,
AS she is sure to do,
An untried audience she meets
For whom old jokes are new.

A refusal to recognize coming Con-

the federal government will sup
ply SIS, the state $3.50, and the
county $3.50. In the event there
are as many as thousand people
in the county entitled to aid, Hen
derson county would have to raise
about 100000, exclusive of opera
tions costs, and this would neees-
state an increase in the county
wide tax rate of approximately
As cents.
Mr.. Durham stated this morn
ing that the cost of operation
would be held to an absolute mini
mum. Records will be kept in the
office of the commissioners. and
all payments will be made there.
However, it will be necessary to
install some office equipment, and
it will be necessary to write a
check each month for every per-
son entitled to this aid. The su-
pervisor will be on full-time sal
airy basis, but members of the
welfare board will probably be
paid only for the meetings attend
ed. The probability is that meet

held once monthly.

Nebraska was originally a part
of the Louisiana purchase. 1.-THE
first settlement was made in 1907
when fur trading post was es-
tablished at what is now Belle
vue." Nebraska was admitted to
these United States as state on
March |, 1867"
There are many points Of in
tercst to see while travelling in
Nebraska. Coming from the east.
the visitor first sees that beauti-
full and industrious city, Omaha.
1t is said that Omaha is one Of the
greatest railroad centers in the
world. Lincoln, the capitol city, is
also beautiful city. The capitol
building "a new eleven million
dollar structure, rising directly
into the sky, is beautiful in its
architectural construction. No
bonded indebtedness hangs over
Nebraska people. An interesting
fact to note with regard to the
state capitol building is that 1t
was erected without any debt. As
the traveller goes westward, the
terrain gradually gets higher and
higher, until when about to enter
Wyoming, they are nearly a mile
above sea level. The roads are
nearly perfectly straight in Ne
braska; and you can travel mile
after mile and see nothing but
prairie lands, dotted here and
there by ranches. Towns are far
apart in Western Nebraska; and
remind one of oasis spots found
in the desert regions of the world.
Climbing higher and higher:
travelling through Wyoming and
Utah without stopping for the

of Nevada in our discussion Of the

minerals? The answer is, none.
Nebraska is probably the only
state in the union that has no nat
ural resources. We have no mines,
no forests, are wholly dependent
upon agriculture, and that an
swers your next questions as to
what is the major industry-agri-
culture and livestock"
A total Of 992 establishments
of manufactures are found in Ne
braska with total Of l9,4S3 en-
ployes. Some Of the manufacture
ing products found in Nebraska
include; food and kindred prod
ucts; textiles and products: con-
crete; stone and clay products ;
metal work; chemicals and allied
products; machinery; forest prod
ucts; printing and publishing, and
meat packing. This latter is per-
haps the major industry of the
State of Nebraska, and is a by
product Of the two mentioned at
the end of the preceding para
graph. Some of the more impor-
tant industrial opportunities in
Nebraska are: rich market,
which is predominantly rural T;
strategic point Of distributions; dl-
rect transportation facilities: eX-
tensivc resources of agricultural
and livestock products; freedom
from congestcd terminals; abund-
ant and capable supply of labor,
and unusually good living condi-
tions.
Nebraska is 9S.2 per cent white.
The rate of illitcracy for the en-
tire population stands at only IL
per cent, "The University of Ne
braska at Lincoln, has 10000 stu
dents enrolled, and there are l6
other colleges and teachers col
leges in the state Evidentally
there is no negro population IN
Nebraska, as none has been re-
corded for us anywhere.
Transportation in the state is
highly developed. Five trans-con-
tinental railways operate in and
through Nebraska from east to
west. The famous Burlington
Zephyr operates between Omaha,
Lincoln and Kansas City, Mis-
souri,; thereby bringing those
three great industrial centers
some hours closer together. High
way transportation is constantly
on the increase, and at this time
the major L. S. routes are paved
for the most part through the en-
tire length of the state. The main
highway through the state is l. ;.
No. 6. which is called the "Roose-
welt highway" and runs from Bos-
ton, Mass, to Denver, Col. Truck

tremendous volume each year.
