Birds, Like Humans,
Need Food to Exist
To save the hirds we must
feed them these cold frosty
and snowy mornings, for they
are more than worth the few
crumbs from our tabie, and
will pay us ba¢k two-fold with
their sweet carols and delight
ful music as the days grow
warmer.
Bird life is one of the great
est contributions to this beau
tiful world of ours. So just
remember each day to help
sustain and keep alive the ‘
birds around us.
Later on we will he writing
something about saving the
birds from the pifles, as here- ‘
tofore with the call of spring ‘
the thoughtless bhoys destroy
many of the red birds, thrush
and other birds. 'But right
now they need food.

Amateurs, World’s Greatest Whoopers
Among the headliners of Unit No,

Edward Bowes traveling amateurs,
to appear in person on the stage
of the Palace theater hére on Feb
ruary 17, are the Jersey Happy
Rangers. The amateurs will give
five shows, the first astarting at
about moon.
Many heard the Jersey Happy
Rangers on the night of their
triumph on the Major's famed
Amateur Hour, but there are some
sidelights on these five boys that
many do not know. »
‘The Rangers are a group of five
boys who play string and reed in
struments. They come from the
eastern “hill billy” country between
Passaie, N. J., and New York City.
They got together and played at
benefits in schools, where they de
lighted audiences with their sensa
tional whoping. In fact, they are
probably the ‘world’s most accom
plished whoopers, in addition to
being fine musicians.
The Rangers were organized
and managed by Ted Carneval,
better known as “Snake Eye,” 23
yvears old, who was born on the
KEast Side in New York City. He
is now living in Plainfield, N. T,
and has studied banjo playing since
he wag 12 years old, practicing at
night after a hard day's work in
the woolen mills,
‘I ve accordionist ig Benny Saik
owskie, 20 years old, and born on
the outskirts of Passaic. He start
