WILD GEESE WITH BIBLE NOTES AROUSE REVIVALS IN SOUTH Special Dispatch to The Star. ATLANTA, Ga., September 8.— Messages from the Bible found ate tached to the legs of wild geese killed recently in the South have thrown negro communities into a religious turmoil which has not sub- sided yet, despite the fact that the birds did mot come from Heaven at but from Jack Miner's sanctuary i Canada, where wild creatures gather by the thousands because they know they are safe from harm. After the first of the geese was slain by the negro pastor of a little Bap church in Mi: ppi the re- port spread that a bird had down from Heaven with a message of holy writ tied to its leg, and indica- tions were that the end of the world was close at hand. When another goose bearing an- other scriptural message was killed the theory gained new strength, and revivals began to spring up, such as even negro com- munities seldom know. In the mean- time word drifted down from the far North that an Indian settlement in the Hudson Bay country was feeling much the same way about the matter, because there, too, a wild goose killed earlier in the season had been found to have a verse from the Bible print- ed on a metal tag attached to its leg. Plan Is Successful. two such widely separated of the country stirred by rent miracle, news came that geese were from Jack Miner's sanctuary in Canada, and that it has become his custom to tag many of the birds with verses of the Bible in the hope that fowls of the air may be used for misslonary purposes. Miner's success has been beyond anything he could have imagined. His wild zeese have done an evangelical work that even Billy Sunday himself could not have accomplished Miner was one of the greatest hunt- 1 the northern shores of Lake With sections at your dealer every day | [ASEBONTE St oa Stk SoitWings&= Around the Gears Start with Ebonite today.

He was walt. ing under a blind, furnished largely by an old blanket, for a shot at wild geese. The geese alighted and began feed- ing, seemingly without any fear of men working in nearby fields. But at his first movement they flew away. They knew him as an enemy. Miner reasoned; could they be taught to know him as a friend? Near the little town of Kingsville, close to Windsor, Ont., he set about establishing himgelf as the friend in- stead of the enemy of wild birds. He planted grain for them on his big farm and -he clipped the wings of seven Canada geese and turned them loose on & pond there. 7,000 Bushels of Corn Used. Finally, 11 wild geese came and settled down beside the wing-clipped one: They were fed and remained lhr? weeks. Thirty-two came the nex 400 the next and the num- ber s ea,dlly increased until as many as 9,000 wild geese have visited the Miner ponds within a year. More than 4,000 bushels of corn on the cob and nearly 7,000 bushels of shelled corn are needed to feed them. Whistling swans and various other birds are to be found on this sanc- tuary furnished by the 30 acres of | the Miner farm., Being interested in) the range of birds during their mi- grations, Miner tagged many of the wild geese, and later he had mes- sages from the Bible printed on these tags. ““Who knows into whose hands these messages will fall and what effect they will have?” he reasoned. “Wild 0., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1926. geese may be turned into mission- e And they have, to an extent that has been amazing among Indians in the Hudson: Bay country and negro communities in the far south.
