An unusual and highly-lauded
program was presented by DR.
Charles w. Hutchins, Creston,
Washington, at the Rotary Club
meeting Tuesday noon when the
famed naturalist discussed Ameri-
can Song Birds, whistled and sang

cellent oil paintings of many birds.
DR.. George Taylor, Liverpool,
England, who is at Lakeside this
week in interests of the Inter
national Fellowship's Friend
ship Through Religion program,
also gave a short talk.
DR.. Hutchins stated that there
are 1,422 different kinds of birds
in America but that the average
parsonage knows only eighteen.
He said that the Sparrow or Finch
family is the worlds largest and
that the Redbreasted Robin is not
a robin at all, but a member Of
the Thrush family.
Hutchins also added that all
Canaries, Snow Birds and Red
birds are members of the Spar
row family, and that the Wild
Canary is not Canary at all, but
belongs to the Warbler family.
Only one mail pouch was ever
lost by the Pony Express.

Grath of Rhode Island and
Walter White, Executive Sec
rotary of the National Associa-

because of the Dixiecrats but
because of the support his par
