Bird - Lore 



THE THIRD-GRADE JUNIOR AUDUBON CLASS AT RUSTON, LOUISIANA 



'International Birds,' are frequently- 

 played for a few minutes, that interest 

 may not lag. The latter is a game similar 

 to 'Authors,' naming the birds by using 

 the final letters of each bird named for the 

 initial letter of the next to be named. 

 Poems about birds are committed to 

 anemory; and many of the members have 

 •written letters representing themselves 

 as birds who have completed their migra- 



tion, and are sending messages from 'their 

 summer homes to the friends who still 

 remain at the winter resort. 



"The accompanying picture shows some 

 of the work of the past winter. Two boys 

 are tying suet to the tree, a third lad is 

 providing a home for some feathered 

 songster, and others are scattering crumbs, 

 or have built houses which they hope will 

 soon be rented at a reasonable price.
