Dear Sir:
II hope you can tell me
how to keep a mockingbird
all winter.
1T came last spring.. and
has been here all summer.
and I am hoping it will stay,
but am not sure of him.
ut must be q he because
1t chases all other birds away
from the food, but I have
observed that it soon grows
tired of this and then the
others come back.
$50 I do not worry at all
about him. and am hoping
we can induce him to remain,
but how?
Are there any foods I can
put out for him, and would
he sleep in q house?
81 have looked up the sub
ject, but have found no pic
ture of a mockingbird house.
do you think he would
like to listen to music?
Sincerely .ANNABELLED D."
q 4 = =
Pinpointing a single bird,
and trying to attract it out
of the scores of birds. is diff
ficult, and mostly impossible.
The thing to do is to be
kind to all, and hope that the
one will stay all winter.
Not all birds stay with us in
winter, nor all mockingbirds;
of the latter. only a few re-
main with us.
We must be glad for these.
Certainly, music would
help, in a general way
All birds love to listen to
singing, violin, piano and
monograph.
We have found that they
are especially fond of Latin
American numbers, with the
rhumba leading.
Perhaps the song sparrow
leads, in his appreciation OF
hi-fi, or what have you.
Knowing nothing of scien-
tific conquest, the song SPAR
row will sing as loudly while
listening to the old Is RPM
records as to the newer ones.
A little music sent into the
garden, now and then. pleases
all birds, and perhaps the
mockingbird might pick up a
strain or two, we are not
sure.

Dessert was a choice of

The Anteaters are neither
gourmetS nor gourmands,
claims host Gordon Leech,
but they specialize in menus
featuring wild game from all
over the world.
In the is years since the
group was founded. they've
feasted on wild boar from
Europe, mouflon from Sar-
dinia, kangaroo from Aus
tralia, royal stag from New

from the South Pole, muktuk
from the North Pole, and
iguana from Guatemala.
Other menus over the years
have starred bear and venison
from New York State, rattle
snake from the Florida Ever
glades, pheasant from South
Dakota in addition to the
wild game served this week.

Regarding your question
on matching your Noritake
china pattern I will tell you
what I learned while in the
Orient.
My friend had a tea service
that had been sent to her
from Japan while she was
still in the states.
After she got to the Orient,
we tried for two. years to
match her pattern in Okin-
ava but were told several
times by Noritake dealers
that she could not match it
unless she went to Japan.
1t was the custom to make
one group Of patterns for ex-
port and another for home
sale. So. if your set was pur-
chased in Japan, I'm afraid
the only way to match it is
to have someone get it for
you in Japan.
Now, can someone help me?
Last year, while living in
Tacoma, Wash, we purchased
a clothes drier due to the long
rainy winters there.

For the first time in IA
years the Anteaters Associa-
ton had elk on the menu at
their two wild game lunch
cons this week. held at the
National Zoo Park Restaur-
ant.
1--WE put in our bid to the
Fish and Wildlife Service for
the elk last July and managed
to get just one" says Mr..
Gordon Leech, manager of the
park restaurant.
"As far as we're concerned
they're scarce" he continued.
The elk when dressed out
weighed about 100 to 200
pounds. Not enough meat for
two luncheons, he pointed out.
To supplement the elk, a
combination platter was plan
ned consisting of the elk,
buffalo and wild duck.
From New York
The duck and buffalo were
purchased from a licensed
game dealer in New York.
But even when purchased
from a government agency,
wild game comes high.
At wholesale prices the
buffalo and elk ran close to
50 per pound, the duck cost
approximately $2.75 for a 2
to 2A pound bird.
Yesterdays luncheon was
the 124th meeting of the An
teaters Association.
The menu, which will be
repeated again today, started
of with tender barbecued It'd
bits OF breast of caribou flown
down from the Arctic Circle.
Then came bean soup follow
ed by the combination platter
OF roast elk, buffalo, duck

saves trying to dry clothes in
freezing weather or snow. But,
can anyone tell me how to
dry sheets so they will be soft
and at least fairly wrinkle

them very dry, just dry, and
still a bit damp. In all cases
they are still a mass of
