Call and see us about The myraid of birds that have passed over Baltimore county recently on their annual migratory journey north indicate that Spring is here. The movement of the feathered hosts have nothing to do with Spring early, late, mild or severe, or the weather past, present or future, says little Mr. Dance, bailiff of the Orphans' Court, Towson, and a weather prophet of no mea nability. According to Henry Dickmyer, of the Clerk's Offiiee, and a resident of the "upper end," Spring is the fact that Gold Finches or American canaries are in flocks much earlier than useual; the blue bird too is arriving in great numbers, and a few days ago Cardinals were heard exchanging notess on the grounds of the Court House Park. But "Uncle Ike" Holbrook, Appraiser of the Orphans' Court, says all indications point to warmer weather, and the birds have nothing to do with it. They arrive, he said, about the same time every year, their time of arrival varying not 5 years. "Uncle Ike" says birds are not weather prophets. Whether the feathered songsters, including the blue bird "shifting his light load of song from post to post along the cheerless fence" as Lowell has it, play their part or not, mild weather is near at hand, says Judge James B. Bentz, who hails from up around Upperco, and whose weather prognostications can be relied upon. There are three classes of birds that visit Maryland. In one classs may be placed the permanent residents. These include 48 species, the bob-white, English sparrow and cardinal being the most common. In class 2 are the regular migra- ELECTRIC LIGHT & POWER PLANTS We can furnish "a size for every need" at prices that will save you money. Wm.H.Stiegler&Co.' 234 N. Calhoun St. Baltimore, Md. tory visitory, and those that settle here during the breeding season. These number 140 species. The Baltimore oriole, the Mallard duck, catbird and house wren are included in this group. The third group includes the brant, or whistling swan, once seen in great numbers in the waters of this vicinity but now extinct here; the willet and horned lark. This year greater numbers of birds than have visited this section during the past two decades may be expected. This is because of the migratory game laws and because of the increased personal interest in our little visitors. TWO MEN HELD IN TIRE THEFT AT COCKEYSVILLE. Roland Tracey and Herman Franklin, alias Christopher Dunn, are locked up in Towson Jail charged with stealing 10 automobile tires from the Reckord Motor Company, Cockeysville. They are said to have broken into the garage of the company early one morning recently. The men were arrested on the York Road hear Seminary avenue. The tires were found in the machine in which the men were trying to escape, police said. They were taken before Magistrate William P. Butler, at Towson, who held them each under $5,000 bail to await grand jury action. Tracey was arrested in connection with the liquor robbery at the home of Thomas D. Hooper, near Cockeysville, in the summer of 1922, but was acquitted. -----------o----------- PRESIDENT AND MRS. COOLIDGE ATTEND COUNTIANS' WEDDING. R. L. DOLLINGS STOCKHOLDERS MAY GET 25 CENTS ON DOLLAR. A Towson man in Philadelphia recently, representing some creditors of the R. L. Dollings Co. had a conference with the receiver, and while he does not say so authoritively it looks as though preferred stockholders may get 25 cents on the dollar. This however, depends on whether or not the claim of the International Note and Mortgage Co., of Ohio, is allowed, that being the case the payment will be less; but from a reliable source it has been ascertained this claim will not be allowed. -----------o----------- FUNERAL OF MRS. FLOHR TAKES PLACE. President and Mrs. Coolidge attended the wedding of W. Stewart Symington III, of Lutherville, to Miss Evelyn Wadsworth, daughter of Senator and Mrs. James W. Wads-worth, the ceremony taking place at St. John's Episcopal Church, Washington. Something for Everybody AT The funeral of Mrs. Lillie C. Flohr, forty-five, wife of John Calvin Flohr, of Catonsville, who died at her home on Magruder avenue, took place at Springfield Presbyterian Church, at Sykesville. Besides her husband Mrs. Flohr is survived by a son, John Flohr. -----------o------------ GEORGE A. WORLEY BUYS NEW COTTAGE HOME. ITALIAN AIRMEN AIM TO RE COVER TROPHY.

Further tests of the most exacting nature will be made between now and October to determine which make of machine will be driven for Italy in the race. Italy has a large force of highly trained pilots from which to select the men who will operate her ships in the Schneider race. Commander Francesco de Pinedo has been appointed chief of staff of the Italian Air Force.

They —the dear women folks of their kind—would be too anxious to get out and look into the store windows. But never mind about ground hogs—whether they are weather precursors—or any other kind of "cursers"—it makes no difference to "Mose"—for He is making room for His New Spiing Stock of "Kahn's Good Klothes"—"Mose's" own good make—and He is almost giving the balance of His good Winter Suits and Overcoats away. At these low prices for these good Suits and Overcoats, it will pay any man to buy them and "store" them away for next winter.

THOSE who frequent the low-end of Baltimore Street and the interssecting streets, notice big naming red signs— pasted ether in their windows or on their fronts—announcing all kinds of sales. Some of these signs have been there so long that they have grown whiskers. To go into one of these places is like going into the side show of a circus—you are bound to get "bit." When you want something good—like Clothing or Furniture or Jewelry never go to a taker. "Mose" has often told you that these "squatters"—in the Clothing business—foreigners here today and gone tomorrow -are no good to you. All they want is your dollar—and they'll take the last one and let you walk home. When you want good Clothes come to "Mose."
