The greatest bird lover, John James Audubon, was born in Hai- Ii on April 27, 1785. He was the son of a commander of a French warship. Tn early childhood he expressed great interest in birds. Audubon spent part of his boy hood and youth in France. He made daily excursions into the woods collecting specimens and drawing birds. He studied under the guidance of the French artist David.
 Audubon returned to his fath- CTS estate near Philadelphia when he was in his teens. There he carried on an experiment in bird banding" He discovered that a pair of pewees that he marked returned after migration.
 At the age of thirty-five, he gave up all pursuits in order to spend all of his time on the draw ing and painting of American birds. More than 400 large pie

have been strong hints that we have worked out
a ground to-air type which-combined with
things like radar and homing devices-points the

Postal Economy

The postal service curtailment, pre-
sumo, was to be evidence Of the economy
theme in Mr.. Truman's Forthcoming
political speaking tour. It is an economy
that nearly every man and woman in
the country would have cognizance of.
therefore an obvious proof to nearly
every citizen of the Presidents effort to
economize
If he fired some of his General
Vaughans and stopped their deep
freeze" activities. that would be logical
economy move. but only few would
know Of it-at least only a few would
feel it,
However. it now seems the postal
service curtailment has back-fired. It
has been harmful to the Administration,
though Postmaster General Donaldson
may now be made the goat.
1t is too bad. We have looked upon
the Post Office Department as the one
thing in our Government which is efici-
ent. at which we could point with pride"
Congress must step in and save it from
becoming just another political football.
