THE HOSTESS ENTERTAINS 
“Window boxes are a never-ceasing source of enjoyment. Mr. Ernest Harold Baynes 
built the first I ever saw, at his home in Meriden, N. H., a particularly attractive one, whic! 
has helped him to become intimate with an astonishing variety of birds” (see page 169).

TAKING THE CAKE 
This wild chickadee will enter the house, perch upon his favorite delicacy 
enjoy a meal in no way affrighted by the presence of his human entertainers. 
This photograph shows how responsive birds are to a little attention and how tan 
may become.
