Yellowstone National / SS Park Exhibit, Panama-Pacific Exposition SAddress FIREWORKS WILL END BLACKBIRDS Dr. Surface Gives Some Ad vice of a Startling Nature to An Erie Inquirer If blackbirds bother you, shoot rock ets or Roman candles at them after they have ceased chattering and gone to roost at night. Pounding of tin pans when there are no newly married couples to be given calithumpian sere nades is also recommended as an effi cacious way to get rid of the dark coated nuisances. These bits of ad vice are given very seTiously by Dr. H. A. Surface, the State Zoologist, in a letter to an Erie county man who wrote to him to know the best way to get rid. of tl?,e pcsUferous black birds. Dr. Surface says in his reply: "I recognize the fact that it is not wise to recommend shooting birds in a town, although if such a thing were possible it would be very effective. Yet there is another means that I consider better, and also safer to your residents. This consists in firing Roman candles and skyrockets through the trees in which the birds roost. It is remark able what an effect it Ims on a bird or animal to disturb it in its sleeping place. If efforts are made to drive these birds away as they come to the trees in the evening to roost, they will soon go elsewhere and be afraid to re turn. "I recommend that pieces of tin be hung to the limbs erf the trees and strings attached so that these can be pulled by boys below In the evening when the birds come there to roost, and thus the latter will be frightened away, and if that be continued for a short time,, combined with shooting through the trees with skyrockets or Roman candles after the birds have come to roost, you will no doubt, be able to get them out and keep them out. At best it will not. be long until these flocks of blackbirds will migrate southward, and they will probably give you no further trouble until next Fall, when it may be necessary to.re peat the lesson."

HOW THE CLIMATE AFFECTS RELIGION A Californian told me that the peo ple there paid less attention to religion than elsewhere because there was so much sunshine. The climate was so delightful that they weer outdoors most of the time, and their Sabbats were given to excursions, so that the church was neglected. A less salubri ous atmosphere would have been bet ter for their souls. And in the king dom of God there will be many with cause for eternal gratitude that the sunshine of worldly happiness faded in time to lead them to appreciate "the light of the knowledge of the glory of god in the face of Jesus Christ."
