the time will soon come when the insect hosts will swarm over the fields 

 as they have done in other lands. One bird lover has said that any nation 

 that permits the killing of the birds should be eaten alive by insects, and 

 China should guard against such a fate by protecting her bird allies now, 

 before it is too late. 



Let all who are interested in outdoor life, then, take up the study 

 of birds. Not only will it add to the economic resources of the country, 

 but it will bring to the bird lover and student a- joy and happiness obt^n- 

 able in no other way.
