Yesterday afternoon manager Charlie Archer of the Forum was busily engaged in directing his em- ployees in getting a smooth sur-

face on the big Forum ice space. Knowing that no games were scheduled until the City . League

opening this department inquired as to t-he reasons for the undue activity and we were politely told that due to the big skating ses- sions recently the ice would have to receive a thorough going over in order to be fit for the actual op'cn- ing of the hockey season. . 1' ‘P l! ‘I

Game birds native to the Prov- ince, such as ruilcd grouse, are in no danger since tirc-y feed on tree buds and insects burrowed in- to trees, director Harding P. Moi- fatt of the Association said.

The other two varieties, however, are foreign and are ground-feeding birds. at a loss for food when heavy snow covers the ground.

Under present conditions‘, they will tend to converge on farm-yards railway tracks and other places cleared of snow, Mr. Mofiatt sald.

He asked fanrners to provide hay- mow sweepings or waste grain and seeds in cleared spbts. Best place was near s. manure heap, he said.

Pupils of rural schools would be asked to assist as soon as schools re-open after the Holidays. _

Despite every effort, it is pos- sible that rmany of the birds wll-l die unless weather-conditions change suddenly, he said.
