Greenwich Bird Day 



September 29, 1915 



As this Year Book is being prepared with a view of disposing 

 of a number of copies to those who attend the two perform- 

 ances of "Sanctuary, a Bird iVIasque," by Percy MacKaye, 

 to be given on Bird Day, September 29th, no account other than 

 the program for that day can be included. For the benefit of 

 The Fairhope League and to awaken a greater interest in the 

 cause of bird protection in Greenwich, the following elaborate 

 program has been arranged for Bird Day. 



2:30 P. M.— "Sanctuary," a Bird Masque, by Percy 

 MacKaye, to be given by the Sanctuary Play- 

 ers on the grounds at Rosemary Hall. 



4:00 P. M. — Lecture by Ernest Harold Baynes, en- 

 titled "How to Attract the Birds about the 

 Home." Illustrated with Lantern Slides. 



To be followed with Moving Pictures — 

 "The Egret Hunters." 



The Court of the Birds 



On view both afternoon and eve- 

 ning — a full description of which 

 is given on other pages. 



8:00 P. M.— Moving Pictures of "The Egret Hunt- 

 ers." 

 8:15 P. M. — "Sanctuary," as in the afternoon. 



At the conclusion of "Sanctuary" a reception will be 

 given the ' 'Guests of Honor, ' ' followed by Refreshments and Ball. 



Afternoon Prices $1 Evening Prices $3 



Upwards of 120 men and women comprise the several 

 committees working to make Bird Day a success from every view- 

 point. The part of the program which pertains more particu- 

 larly to bird protection will be the "Court of Birds." Great ef- 

 fort will be made to interest the boys and girls of the town, as 

 will be seen by the generous prizes offered in the competitions.
