Bird Houses

Look, mother" cried Jane Har-
ris, there's a robin red breastr'
II do believe spring has really
come at last" answered Mrs. Har-
ris.
"Mther, let's get daddy to build
a bird house for robins only"
"All right, we will" mother told
her.
Mother, where shall we put the
bird house. 1 think we ought to
put it in the field next to the
house." 1t is cultivated, so the
birds will be able to get plenty of
worms for the little birds when
they hatch"
MY, Jane, you certainly know a
lot about birds and their homes, =
answered her mother.
"Oh! we learn a lot about birds
in school,"
So Jane really did build her
bird house. 1t was the same color
as the house, too. Although she
didn't get to paint it until the next
fall, she put it near the field where
she could look out of her window
every morning and watch the birds
as they came and went.
