So tame had these birds be- must be on the safe side and hat or shoulder without the slightest fear, and his out- stretched arm formed a human perch for numbers of these birds to sit in a row and, although I do not know if he had a special name for any particular favorite, I think it not at all unlikely. Then again, on another oc- casion, it was my pleasure to see how very tame the squirrel had become in the public parks in Minneapolis, and even I, a stranger, at once gained the con- fidence of many of these bright active little animals as they climbed up my coat to my shoul- der where they knew a peanut had been placed and I can as- sure you that it was quite a new experience for me to have no less than three of these little fellows making their way to reach the nut. I also remember how thought- less the owner of a dog was when he enticed the animal to hunt the squirrels which I was glad to see were far too quick for the dog and when they reached a place of safety up the trees they had no further fear from the dog, although the thoughtless man even lifted the dog up the tree as a further en- couragement. Now both Paris and Minne- apolis are a long way from West Vancouver, but I want to tell you of the success I have had with both animals and birds that have placed confidence in me here in a West Vancouver gar- den. Many years ago, no doubt be- fore some of my little readers were born, squirrels were for more cominon about our district than they are at the present time, I am speaking of 15 years ago when we first came to live at Dundarave, for then we had as companions both chipmunks and squirrels, for the birds were not nearly so numerous as they are today. These little animals would come into the house and in the garden would feed out of my hand. You boys and girls often see pictures of birds sitting on peo- ples'ands and shoulders, just like the sparrows in Paris, but has it ever occurred to you that it is just as possible for any of you to gain the same confidence of both birds and animals, all that is required is a little pa- tience, you will then realize that the birds are not quite so wild as you may have imagined them to be. I hope you do not think that I am wandering in my notes this week, but what I have already written is by way of an introduc- tion to what I have to say con- cerning a bird that we have been successful in taming, and this is one of the commonest of our West Vancouver birds, but do you know the gentleman who runs this paper threatened to cut my article in half last week, so I have got to be very careful this week, and I really think I come that they would sit on his leave what I have to say about this bird in my next week' notes, and you will have all week to try and guess the name of the friendly little bir&l which ivill be the basis of my next talk.

That's the way Herbert Bren- on's latest Paramount produc- tion ends. Dixie Willson's story, "God Gave Me Twenty Cents," is a tale of two men,--one good, the other bad; of two women,-- one a mere child, the other, hard; and of two dimes,--both false. It tells how the two wo- men,--one innocent and naive; the other, rough and hard; came to love the same man. And how, with the aid of two thin dimes, the latter almost succeeded in wrecking her rival's happiness. Fraught with romance, color, action, drama and suspense, this depiction of the New Orleans waterfront during a Mardi Gras carnival, is expected to prove one of the year's most unusual pictures. "God Gave Me Twen- ty Cents" will be shown at the Hollyburn Theatre next Wednes- day. 10 Times a Day Pacific Stages pass along the famous Highway of the North Shore bound for:-- Vancouver Cityiss NEW AND SECOND HANiD Furs)-tare bought, sold, aud exchanged.Fred Tite, Keviii's Old Stand, Am-bieside. and towards 'iers .ital nes- ;ked ter- hnst ime.
