To the Editor of the Enterprise:

You asked for bird notes in your last paper. I cheerfully and willingly send you some notes. Robins were seen on the Maynard Hilton farm, about two miles from the village. They were also seen in the village. Starlings were seen at Lawyer White’s residence. My room, the third and fourth grades, saw some hair birds this morning about ten o’clock. Mrs. Kinney gave them some apples. Valentine’s day the birds choose their mates and start for the north. I have seen the chickadee and woodpecker. Others have seen the nuthatch. I hope the rest of the birds will be here soon.

Sincerely yours,

Ella Vanderpool

Fourth grade

VILLAGE NOTES.

— Lent began Wednesday. Seven weeks to Easter.

— The basket ball craze appears to be growing here. At the school gymnasium Tuesday evening two games aroused considerable enthusiasm among the spectators as well as the students. There has been some talk of the older fellows organizing a team. Here’s hoping they do. The “gym” can be hired evenings for a very small sum. Other villages have teams — why can’t we?

VOORHEESVILLE.

The net receipts from the supper given by the men of the Presbyterian church last Friday evening were $62.

Sunday will be observed as Foreign Misssion Day in the Reformed church Sunday school. Miss Hattie R. Jacobson, the new superintendent, is preparing an interesting progrma. Special gifts will be made for a kindergarten in Chiang-Chiu, China.
