The crow, against which the contest is aimed, is, according to Floyd ;Scinoc. naturalist of the' Ranier National Park, essentially the farmers' friend. Secondly, the crow war will lead to. the wholesale destruction of, other' bird life. The handsome prizes of- fer a pretext for thousands of ama- teur hunters to go into American for- ests in. bird-breeding season where there is slight chance that they will make nice discriminations between the useful or" harmful varieties of crows, or of any other bird that is black. With thousands of mien, wo- men, and children intent upon slaugh- ter it would not be long before ourI entire bird life would be disturbed. As a matter of, record, our bird life is already disappearing. The con- test which has already started will soon see S,000 hunters in the field. SAudubon societies are in arms againstr the lack of foresight of the, du Pont 4Powder company. Letters of protest are daily flooding the mails of the du Pont offices at Wilmington, Delaware, ob~jecting to the company's policy- a policy which, if it results in a fav- orable increase of ammunition sales, may be continued and extended inde- finitely. 'those who love Amer- ican, bird life should determine their individual stands. If they agree with biological and naturalist authorities they can do much to save American bird life by adding their word of pro- test against the wholesale slaughter now being conducted.

"That huge log was almost our nemesis," soliloquized each of the three boys, leaning hard on their oars. as the evident cause of the impact floated slowly past, "and it's a wonder that fool Prof.CSnodgrass doesn't keep about his business." Their reverie was interrupted by another violent jar. Dick, his patience strained to the breaking point, turned to reprove the professor. "Dire catastrophe has again gripped us!" :Professor Snodgrass is vanished like an ephemeral mist," he choked. "Yes," casually put in the fun lov- ing Sam, "and I'll bet it was his white (pith helmet that I saw floating down the stream but a moment ago!" The three boys were aghast. "Perhaps the professor was under the helmet," suggested Tom, "anid is by now completely saturated with this. death dealing tropical water."j "And we ,are here alone in the vast Amazonic jungle," cried Dick.

PLEASE SAY: "I SAW OUR AD IN TOASTED ROLLS. -r.JasoniCowles, C CAMPUIS OPINION I It is a remarkable thing how thet world's greatest college newspaper can from time to time get way with murder in the farm of slinging mud at any and all campus theatrical pro- dutions with an occasional fistful for visiting performers of national repute Most of the writers of these tiresome attempts exhibit superb conceit of their tastes and a craving to put over something original rather than the true spirit, of constructive criticism. SThe writer has witnessed these pro- ductions and read these outbursts of adolescent pseudo-critics for threeE years and has failed to notice the slightest benefit derived from their publication.
