LASOR'S BENERITS IS ETAL CHAMPION Department of Internal Affairs has published a ‘Borough Secre- tary’s Manual.” The manual, which is the first publication of its kind ever issued by the Department, was prepared in response to requests from the Pennsylvania State Association of Borough Secretaries and from many individual Borough Secretaries, who felt that such a manual would give them practical guidance in meeting the obligations of their office. The manual was prepared by Dr. John H. Vanderzell, who recently resigned as Assistant Director of the Bureau of Municipal Affairs to resume his teaching duties at Frank- lin and Marshall College, Lancaster. Assisting Dr. Vanderzell with the preparation of the manuscript were other members of the Department, personnel from several other State agencies, several Borough Secretar- ies, and representatives of the Penn- sylvania State University and the University of Pittsburgh Institutes of Local Government, The question and answer method is used to present the data regard- ing borough secretaries’ status, com- pensation, and duties. A departure has been in this publication from the more conventional handbook design by using a loose-leaf binder to facilitate the insertion of new material.

Lisses, Dallas optome- trist and member of Harveys Lake Lions, spoke to Swoyersville Lions Club Wednesday evening on the value of a school visual screening program.

Bird Club Will Visit Local Ridge Oct. 28 Members of Back =~ Mountain Library Bird Club will visit Larks- ville Mountain Sunday afternoon, October 28, meeting at 1 p. m. at the Acme parking lot in Dallas. With migration of hawks at its height, protected speties as well as legitimate game are being shot in great numbers by hunters in con- cealed blinds. The mere presence of bird-watchers at the site of this slaughter helps greatly in reducing the carnage. ‘“Pennsylvania’s Bloody Ridges,” written by Maurice Broun for Na- ture Magazine, issue for June-July, 1956, points up the improbability of the average hunter’s recognition of protected or unprotected birds. Until the bird is fluttering down, wounded or dead, the species is un- known. It takes an ornithologist to pick out distinctive markings when the bird is on the wing.
