How RE % Recently I was standing in line at the ticket window in the Broad St.. station at Philadelphia, when an adorable blonde right in front of me said to the ticket seller: “I want a ticket to Chicage.” The ticket man asked: “By Buffalo?” And the litile cutie gave him an icy stare and exclaimed: “O course not!

My husband was lost at sea.” The other lady, who was practical under any circumstance acked: “Was he insured?” But the 3 3 ‘ ye . al widow replied: “No, he was a total loss.” * * *® * * A pessimist thinks that all women are immortal, and an optimist mere- ly hopes so. x % % % 8 “Is horse racing a clean sport?’ asked an old lady of a youth, and the latter answered: “Well, it cleans quite a few peopls every day. ..-.

Th part she liked most was wher he told her she reminded him 3 of a lovely flower............ Anc then the very next day he sent he: a century plant. Boy, did she burn! ok # In a parked car on cemetery hill (and T'll bet you kids didn’t know that I know that’s a favorite spark- ing place) a certain girl cooed: “Ah a kiss speaks volumes!” And her boy friend, always on the alert. suggested: “Then lets start a lib- rary.” 2 % 5% Then there was the Donegal st Jady who bought scme ra pcison at Hostetters hardware store and was asked if she wanted to take it with her. Misunderstanding and thinking it was a joke instead of an act of courteous service, she took offeense and walking out of the tore, exclaimed: No! I'll send the 1ats over for it.” * * * * * Have you heard the joke abou the balcony? No? Well, its just a: well.

They were « easy mark for hunters for they were very slow moving birds. They were as common on tables as chick- ens are today. Old records tell us that the hired men got tired of cating ‘heath hen. Before they would work on farms, they made the owners promise that they would not serve heath hens more than twice a week. Of course tne sturdy, vigorous heath hen could take care of itself and protect itself against forest enemies, but could not withstand the attacks of greedy hunters. By the year 1870, just one snort century from the days of the colo- nies, the heath hen had disappear- ed from the Mainland of the United States. Only upon Martha’s Vine- yard Island could flocks of these birds be found. It was then that the scientists became deeply inter- ested in that bird. In 1908 the state’ of Massachusetts came to the rescue 7f the heath henn and tried to save it. Part of Martha's Vineyard Island’ was set aside as a heath hen reser- vation, where the birds were given full protection. At the time, the | heath hen numbered less than one! hundred. By 1916 they had in- creased to fully two thousand. Lov- ers of the wild and helpless creat- ures believed that the heath hens had been saved. But they could not the terrible disaster that swept through the reservation in Moy of that year. A raging fire] in the forest brush burned the nests; the young and the faithful | mother, hens that would not flee| and leave the young fledgings be- tind, Few of the heath hens sur- vived did their numbers in- crease as new underbruch grew up in place of the charred blackened | ruins left by the fire. Little by little the decreased in number. In spring of 1927 just 13 birds were counted, and in April of the following year only three were seen. By the fall, only two birds could be found, and in December of that year but one appeared. Now even this heath hen has dis-| appeared. It has not been seen. since March of 1232. Sadly scien-! tists have watched one more species vanish from the earth. They real- ize the passing of the heath hen was caused by man’s ruthless de- forsee nor heath hens ) | struction. | The same fate that befell the] heath hen is threatening our own| i Bob White, Quail, (Partridge).! Some of the older hunters can well remember when the Bob Whites] were plentiful in all of Pennsyl- | vania, as well as in most all the other states in the Union, but with! each passing year the Bob Whites are getting less and less. The Pennsylvania Game Com- mission is trying as best they can to restore the Bob White, last year there were 18 pairs of these birds, in pairs, liberated in the Columbia section. These birds were pen raised, all in tip-top condition when liberated early last spring, yet nct one covey of Bob Whites could be said were reared by these stocked birds. Fellow sportsmen you know how scarce these birds are. Don’t you think it would be a wise thing to place this bird on the protected list until they would increase in numbers to such extent that they would be in no danger of passing out of existence the heath hen. Isn't it worth more to hear this game bird whistling, “Bob White, Bob White”, along with in the early spring We've told you how he puts a leash on a big red rooster and takes him walking. Remember? Well on Sunday He put the rooster on a sled and took it coasting. Next week we expect to see him doll it up in a snow suit and take it ice skat- ing on the bird bath.
