When spring comes we WI.
be well repaid for our ca1..
full tucking away in the fall.
Mrs. Curle's subject was
1.-THE Beauty of Birds in a
Winter Garden"
The Spring and Summer
garden and even the Fall gar
den are filled with the bril-
liant bloom of flowers and the
green OF the shrubs, SO the
birds are truly overshadoW-
ed by the flowers. But the
winter garden is drab and
uninteresting SO each little
bird Is a touch of beauty.
If we want birds we must
first make our garden attrac-
tive to them. If we provide
three things, year round food
and drink, winter shelter and
summer resting places, we
will have birds in our yards.
The best way to provide food
and shelter is to plant trees
and shrubs that bear fruit for
One of these plants is the
Common Priest Hedge. This
is an excellent source of foods
for the birds.
The Cedar Wax Wings es-
pecially like the black berries
on this shrub. Other common
plants to our gardens which
provide food for the birds are
hollies, cedarS, oaks elm
mulberry, dogwood, nandinas.
ounce, crab apple. sweet gum
p~erslmmon, tulip tree, hick-
Dry, and even the common
palmetto and poison ivy.
To attract birds quickly
set UP a feeder. Set it up
early and keep it filled. DO
not put it undeer a tree or
bush from which cats and
squirrels can jump. 1t is best
to place it in the open lawn
where it can be seen from
your windows. Probably the
first bird to find it will be the
English Sparrow, but he will
lead others to it.
A simple and inexpensive
feeder can be made out of a
shallow box about Is inchees
wide and "A inches long. Nail
TO a post built outside a Win
dow.
Birds like bread and toast,
cracked corn and bird seed
mixture. Some like suet and
Chicadees like peanut butter.
One of our most beautiful
and fascinating birds is the
Humming Bird. You will at
tract these birds to your win
ter garden if you offer them
small bottles covered with
cOlorful foil and filled with
sugar water, one part sugar
to three parts water.
If we would have a bird
sanctuary We must offer them
the things that make them
happy as we'll as protecting
them from their enemies as
best we can.

Market Owner Som
PenfeI Held Up:
SIuqqed By Duo

Sam Pentel, 1889 Thomas Av.
NJ, proprietor of the 3Sth Street
Food Market, corner 38th st. and
Fourth Av. S. was robbed of $500
by two youthful bandits Monday
night and slugged.
Mr.. Pentel, who has operated a
store on this corner for 80 years
closed his establishment at 7:15
pm. and walked to the panel truck
parked at the curb. Upon entering
the truck two young men with
grocery sacks over their heads, hid
ing in the rear of the truck began
to beat him and demanded his
money.
The men took $500 in cash from
him and ordered him to enter the
store for more. After the robbers
forced him back in the store Mr..
Pentel told them he had no more
money and he was struck by a lead
pipe which one of the men brand
ished.
Passerbys noticing the commo-
ton in the truck and then in the
store, called police but by the time
officers arrived, the men had fled.
One of the police officers who
answered the call allegedly re-
marked to Mr.. Pentel who suf-
fered the loss of two front teeth
from his upper bridge plate, You
can expect anything to happen in
this neighborhood nowadays"
1t is reported a neighborhood
woman and her child saw the men
climb in the truck and hide. She
called police and told them of her
suspicion but police were appar-
emily not dispatched to the scene.
November 1, in the same block
burglars broke into the Lof-
tbs Tailor Shop at 345 E. 3Sth ST.,
and took clothing and merchandise

Figures cited by Mr. Young

lack of educational opportunities
and the continued discrimination
against Negroes by employers and
labor unions.

At present the Boilermakers are
ranked third in the Big Ten and
seventh on the UPI and AP ma

Saturdays they have knocked off
Iowa, 90; Illinois, 23-9, and Mich

According to the Minnesota

surpasses the Gophers in manpow-

the usually great second half surge

all beauty of the affair sent many
of the huge crowd home convinced
that this committee had achieved
its aim. The size of the affair, in

lines.
For the event the Council had
reserved the Pick-Nicollet's main
