How to Attract the Birds 



flocks of strong- winged gulls may be seen hovering 

 about with an eye intently fastened on every floating 

 speck. Enormous feeders, gulls and terns cleanse 

 the waters as vultures do the land. Millions of these 

 graceful birds that enliven the dullest marine picture 

 have been sacrificed for no more worthy end than to 

 rest entire or in mutilated sections on women's hats ! 

 But now that the people begin to understand what 

 birds do for us, a happier day is dawning for them all.
