A
PERSONAL FRIEND OF ENGLISH
r
When Ernest Harold Baynes, a fa
nous naturalist and authority on
birds, cornea to Omaha next Satur
day to lecture under the auspices of
the Audubon society, be will get a
hearty welcome from hundreds of
irdent bird lovers.
In addition, however, be will be
warmly greeted and welcomed by at
least one old friend and personal ac
quaintance of long standing, C. II.
English, superintendent of public
recreation. The latter was on the
same lyceura bureau circuit with Mr.
Baynes a number of years ago, and
so knows the famous bird man quite
well. Mr. English is also a bird en
thusiast himself and a member of
the Audubon society.
"We are mighty fortunate to tt Mr.
Barnes to eomo to Omaha and lecture on
birds and show us Ma wonderful ptc
torea." Superintendent English said whan
fee learned ot the approaching affair. "I
have beard him lector and hare seen
bis many si Idea, and eo know that we
bare a treat In store next Saturday.
rrTM Blr Charsaer.
"An unusual feature ot Mr. Baynes ac
complishments Is that be not only has a
pleasing delivery, hut also a personality
that seems to charm birds and animals,
as well as people. The result Is that he
has been able to attract and domesticate
numerous wild birds and animals, thereby
KStllng remarkable pictures of them and
gaining much valuable first-hand knowl
edge of their ways.
"On his large private estate at Merlden.
N. H., he frequently walks out and soon
the birds, squirrels, foxes or other wild
friends of his gather about him, with
absolutely no Indication of fear. It Is
wonderful how the wIM things love and
trust him." 1
Climax t Caaapatar.
I The lectors In Omaha by Mr. Baynes
I will be a suitable climax to a oampalgn
of education conducted this winter by the
Nebraska Audubon society to Interest
people In bird study and protection.
Ever since it wsa discovered that song
' "birds are valuable exterminators of In
sect pests. Interest in bird welfare has
grown, until now the entire country Is
wakened In the matter.-and sentiment Is
constantly growing stronger tor harbor
ing and encouraging the feathered songsters.
Mr. Baynes will deliver his lecture st (
o'clock next Saturday evening at the
First Baptist church. Park and Dewey
avenues. His subject will be "Our Wild
Bird Friends and How to Attract Them."
His many stereopticon Illustrations are
from photographs taken by hlmseir.
LenrheOB for Visitor.
The local Audubons, headed by their
president, Dr. Solon B. Towne, plan to
entertain Mr, Baynes Saturday noon at a
luncheon at the Commercial club. They
also hope to take him for a walk through
the woods around Child's Point, where
many wild birds may be studied the year
round. .
His leoture here was made possible by
subscriptions from members of the so
clety, and as much of their money as
possible will be returned ,to them from
the sale of ilckets, as the lecture la in
tended purely for educational purposes,
and not for profit, It was hoped to have
Mr. Baynes also speak to children In the
afternoon, bot that idea was given up be
cause ot the Board of Health precautions
against epidemics.
