She made repeated visits to the furnace and. apparently in order, re turned to bed. The family arose about 7 o'clock and a half hour later Foose. followed bv his wife and chil (jrenj went to the cellar to tend the furnace.

SPORTSMEN OARING Feathered Creatures from Starvation Tireless Work Saved Amidst driving snows and hail, three squads of members of the Blair Sportsmen's association, following their weekly custom throughout the vwuier, set oui jesitruay moruiug iu tramp milee that they might provide grain for the feathered creatures of the county, deprived of their natural source or tooa supply oy me neavy snows, One group of members, carrying small sacks of ear corn, tramped up through the old Dry Gap road and across to the Buckhorn, returning by way of Mill run.

Another contingent of the little squad of humade workers, traveling by rail to Union Furnace, struck across country towaro. Arch Spring- and through the lower Sinking valley district, also carrying corn. To place this corn properly for the wild turkeys, for they were the par ticular birds cared for yesterday, requires some work after the conservationist arrives at the spot. A hole is bored In the end of the cob with a knife. Then the perpendicular branches of a sturdy bush are cut off about three feet above the ground ana me enas saarpenea 10 receive the cob, which ts pushed down over the point of the sma3 branch.

In this way the turkeys can reach the corn, while the deepest snow will not cover their mercifully placed food supply. The small birds in and around Lakemont park were also taken care of yesterday, a great bag of suet being distributed among the feeders placed there by the Blair association. Even while the sportsmen were on the scene, small flocks of hungry lit tle chickadees hopped about nearby and chirped their gratitude, while an occasional saucy oocpecxer or hick- er, vainaoie lnsecuvercua Diras tnat laey are, uuvereu auuui iu uuugry anticipation.
