Last Thursday the Trade School lost tkeir first game of the season to Bartlett High of Webster in a poorly played game by the score of 22 to §. ‘The loss of the game was directly due to poor fielding by the Trade School team, ¥ Putnam High. By E, H. Snow, Sub. Master,) _Putnam High School has lost its first two games but having five new men in the field we could not expect championship form so early in th3 season. It is most satisfyin; g however, from Putnam's point of vidw that our own team is practically made up of Sophomores and Freshmen which bids fair to produce for our school a cham- pionship team within the next two years. After losing to Webster in a very poorly played game the team Tues- day played Killingly and with the ex- ception of two innings played nearly perfect baseball. Putnam’s batting is not ail that is to be desired, but we are paying special attention to this feature of our work this spring. Al- though not perhaps, of championship calibre, Putnam has a fighting team full of aggressiveness and a teamn which before the season is over will have to be recl\oned with by the very best teams in the’ league.

The favorable action of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on the bill enabling the migratory bird treaty with Great Britain to be put into ef- fect is welcome. This measure has already passed the Senate. Favorable action in the House, in- dicated by the committee’s report, will submit . for executive approval - this final. phase of one of the most im- portant. possible the most important, undertaking for wild life conservation put forward on this continent. Once the measue is law the migra- tory birds of North America will be protected on_ their annual fights through Canada and the United States. Shooting seasons will be regulated by the Federal Authorities, the State authorities co-operating, according to general conditions, rather than the lo- cal desire or whim bf the various States. There will be no open season for ducks in Connecticut, say, while New York, across the Sound, has a closed season. Regulation of shooting will be by zone. There will be no shooting during mating seasons. Non-game birds will have thorough and complete protec- tion. The advantage of this is not alone in’ the conservation of bird life. There will accure to the country a tremend- ous advantage.economically by reason of the work of the birds permitted to livi Some varieties of game birds and most varieties of no-game birds are destroyers of noxious insects, bugs and beetles, and harmful rodents, or are eaters of weed seed. These birds will protect and aid the farmers by their forays on plant lice, fruit scale. the boll weevil, the gypsy moth, grasshop- pers, the canker worm, mosquitoes, flies, rats, field mice and weeds in general. Crops and trees worth millions of dollars will be saved by the energy of the feathered friends of the nation, In turn, some of them will exact of the farmer or gardener a little of his ripe fruit, but’the damage they do in this respect w be almost negligible com- pared with the total of the aid they give. It hds been a long and hard fight. this one which is now nearing com- pletion. The idea originated with the American Game Protective Associa- tion, which worked for and had passed the original migratory bird law. This was extended to apply to Canada un- der Britain and the United States, so that the protection for bird life will be continent-wide. The project has been supported by the National Association of Audubon Societies' and the more liberal State officials and sportsmen of the nation, who have recognized that conflict of State authority and local ' priviledges or jealousies were fast destroying one of the continent’s greatest assets.
