Despite the weather there was a large attendance at the church and particularly noticeable was the num- ber 'of school children, In his talk Mr. Job told of the good that birds do, especially in destroying insects He also told of how the state raises & large number of birds including the pheasant many of which are sold to | organize such a club. Mr. Job recalled | l | e, same wardens for $30 a piece. [ Following his talk on bird life, Professor Job told of the formation of many Junior Audubon Bird clubs thrpughout the United States and | “anada and expressed the desire that some school children in Berlin would be interested enough in the subject to the time when he spoke in a Canadian city of about 105,000 population and where over 800 people were turned | away from the door of the hall. At his | first attempt in that city he organized a club with 9,500 members and a year later the membership had increased to 16,500. He also said that he re- members the four days he spent with John Burroughs, the great naturali who recently died, and the discussion they had on bird life. Theodore Roose- velt also did a great deal for the birds while he was president, Mr. Job added.
