Rambling With Lucy (Lucy R. Woods) The Battle of the Birds is going on merrily at "The Hut", The current unrest in the world even seems manifest amongst our feathered friends. To be mourned are the vast numbers of various species of birds caught in a terrific windstorm recently, and drown- ed when they fell exhausted into the lakes. They have been coming up in fishermen's nets and washing up on shore. ` Right outside her bedroom window, "Mrs." beheld a robin with its "dander" up attacking a house wren, The little bird got away. Next day, both a robin and sparrow chased "Jenny" Wren. She took refuge in the house erected for her last year by "Mr:" The male sparrow which has scratched the old paint off that box trying to get in all winter, sat on the perch outside and looked in, But as usual the hole was too small to permit his entrance. In a few minutes the sparrow flew off, and, after a short interval, Jenny peeked out. All one could see were her beak And eyes. They were both sharp, though, so she decided it was safe to come out. • With neither enemy in sight, she sat up on the top of the box and trilled merrily. When "Mr." came into the house, Lucy told him of. the incident. "Why are the robins after the wren? Don't they like them nesting near theirs"--up on the bend of the gutter under the eave? she asked. "The wrens' pick holes in the robins' eggs," he stated, in answer to her query. Now isn't that just like some people? They cannot be big and colourful like the robin.- They are jealous, mean and spiteful. And yet to the world they appear to be such merry individuals that no one ever suspects their inmost thoughts and cruel underhand tricks, There is no doubt that the robins had every right to be angry and try to chase the marauder from their vicinity. Out on the lawn at Bells a pretty blue robin's egg was found with a tiny hole in it. This spring "Mr." erected a bird box near the kitchen window, hoping that black capped chickadees would occupy it. However, they never noticed it. A pair of House Wrens arrived early and were busy filling it up with sticks, grass, etc. Apparently, they ignored the house on the post opposite Lucy's window. But they've been busy filling it up, too recently. Lucy has been told upon good authority that House Wrens will even fill up nearby boxes to prevent another pair of their own kith and kin nesting there—regular little dogs-in-the-manger!!! "Mrs." hopes that it is another pair of wrens because she likes to watch them, but on 'the other hand, she isn't very happy for the robins. One evening just after sunset, two strange birds came to the feeding station. In the peculiar light, they were not recognized. Great was the excitement. "Mr." and "Mrs." and a guest scanned the coloured plates in the Field Guide to the Birds. They even telephoned Mrs, J. E. Howard, an authority on birds. But their description was slightly distorted. When Lucy Brat saw them, she exclaimed, "Look! are those chimney swifts?" The answer was "No." "They fly a bit like them," she remarked. Next morning they came back again and took another look at the feeding station. But it was too low and too open to take up housekeeping, they decided. In the meantime, "Mr." had recognized their descrip- tion as that of the Purple Martin.. Evidently, Martin houses are at a premium! Lucy had not seen Martins at such close range before. According to all reports, they are quite garrulous, so she's just as well pleased that there was no apartment here in which they could set up opposition to "Mrs," .

House Scorched By Firecrackers BAYFIELD — It seems that no amount of warning is ever sufficient in the matter of fire- crackers. Sure it is heaps of fun to throw them but the end result may not be so amusing as was the case on Friday night. Three boys were playing with Randy McClinchey out- side their residence about sev- en o'clock. They had fire- crackers and evidently threw them up on the roof of . the IVIcClinchey house. Suddenly there was a differ- ent crackle and a flame. * Randy ran screaming to his father and uncle, Beverly Mc- Clinchey and Merton Merner, They were adjusting a power mower at the side of the gar- age and did not hear Randy at first. A hose was attached a n d Mrs. Mcainchey turned on the water, The men had it under control in a few minutes and Merton Merner ripped off the burned cedar shingles just to be sure that no spark lingered underneath. There was not a great deal of damage done but the Mc- Clincheys could easily have lost their home if they had not been on the spot. It looks as if fire- crackers will have to be ban- ned in Bayfield as well as in the cities since children 'heed neither the admonition of the school teachers nor their el- ders in setting them off.
