A special topic for grades seven to eight is The Food of Birds, to deter- mine the economic value of birds to farmers, fruit growers, and residents of towns or cities. An article will be published in the March issue on this subject. In the meantime, let the children find out all they can about the food of birds. Many of the winter birds are seed eaters. Have a Nature-Study lesson on the different kinds of seeds that the children can find on their way to school, whether these seeds are on trees or whether they are on the dry stalks that stand up above the snow. Special Study of Animal Life.—In the study of ani- mal life this year the special work is The Dog, and to compare with the dog the horse, cat, mouse, rabbit, and squirrel. In the advanced grades the pupils are expected to classify these animals into those that are useful and those that are harmful. Next month some facts on this classification will be given and Fig. lats aitd birds are not so friendly as they sometimes seem to be.
