MARY’S CHURCH UNIONVILLE One mrild| morning some Weeks ago i when the Robins had first come back and when it was still dark at 5 am. our whole neighlbm’hoo-d was set in an uproar by the simple turn- ing of a switch. The fanmer inno- Mmfly turned on the yard light on ‘hviis way to the barn and a robin who was roosting on a Spruce tree a few feet from the high powered electric hulrb burst Into startled song. This woke «very robin in the neigl'iboflii-ood and they all loud- ly apolc-g’k-Cd for having over-slept. The big dog next door was spend- ing his first night out doors and, (being son'ptrwhiat nervous, was wak- ened by the unexpected music and barked loudly and long to show his dJ'isapyproval. This, of course, start- ed all the dogs in the: neighborhood, and also woke tfh-e owner of the big dog who leaned out of the win- dew and told him in no uncertain terms- just what he thought of him. This in turn woke the baby, who in ‘his turn cried and‘ woke the rest of the farm'ky. But perhaps the (story doesn’t .emd h-ere â€" when a bird sings or a dog barks at that mystic hour when night and’ day are just teetering in the balance the sound spreads as surely as do the rimles when a stone is dropped in a quiet pond. So perhaps for hun- dreds of miles across our peaceful Ontario countryside robins‘ sang- â€" and dogs barked: â€"â€" and] men swore ‘â€" and babies cried â€"- and mothers and children woke â€"â€" just: because the farmer turned a switch. tho kmows! The 'Whivp-ploor-wil‘l whidh we sometimes hear in the evening, but seldom see, did not shy himsehf from two birddsfis the other even- ing. Jusrt at dusk when returning home from a aide «in the country, the call] of the Whip-qpoorr-will was repeatedly heard with unusual dis- tinctness. The urge to locate the bird seized us and so making our way through the dual}: we' were able .‘0 come within mwel've feet of it. It was pl‘ainly sleern perched on a bare branch of tree and! calling Whip-(pooruwill to its heart’s con- tent. The shining eyes of another Whip-pvoor-w‘ill met us face to face on fih-e road coming home. Did you know that rbhe Baltimore O‘xriole is named for Lord Baltimore wlilo was the foulnd‘er of Maryland? In 1632 he visited Virginia and- the color of his livery was the brilliant colvorvings of the o‘riolei.

Ibs nest is most interesting, made of grasses, plant fibres, hair, strings and bark firmly interwoven. It is in the form of a bag and is hung {between two twigs near rthe end' of a limb 20 to 40 feet high The nest is- so knitted: and fitted: together that though tossed through winter and summer storms; it remains in place fcr several years. This bird is: one of the greatest ‘dvestmoyers of hairy caterpillars May beetles, grasshop- pers, ebc., eating cultivated fruit occasionally as a relish. The good the bird [can do is great and the harm slight.
