Now Noted Sculptor
. A former Omaha boy who Is achieving
fame as a sculptor is Arthur Putnam,
son of Mr. and Mrs. M. M. Putnam, who
lived at Twentieth' street and Poppleton

the sua vo. aptitudes and beatltudea of
paatels and water colors and the wild

declare the primal and the strong.
"These bronsea are by Arthur Putnam,
the San Francisco sculptor. Mrs. A. B.
Sprockets haa "purchased them, and will

As they are now exhibited they will ar

Mormon Church Says
'Ware the Avalanche
SALT LAKE CITY", t'tah, Feb. .-The
first presidency of the Mormon church
Issued a formal warning today advising
all persons to keep out of the mountain
canyons on account of the unusually
heavy snows and the consequent danger
from avalanches.
Such warnings by the off'cers of the
. church were common In the early" days
of Utah, but it is said this Is the firm
nt the kind that hns been Issued for f!fty
years.
More snow is in the mountains than for
many years past. Several deaths have
occurred through snow alleles recently anfl

Boys at Fort school are considerably
Interested In their bird-house activities.
Last fall City Commissioner Hummel pro
posed to furnish the material If the boys
would make the bird houses, which will
be placed In the parka during the early
spring before the feathered songsters be
gin to make their nests. The work waa
taken up at Fort school with unusual
avidity because tho boys have more
equipment than is provided In the ordi
nary manual training departments of the
elementary schools.
Helen Thompson, supervisor of manual
training In the elementary schools, snd
Robert Oalt, Instructor In woodwork at
Fort school, secured plans of various
types of bird houses and Instructed the
boys in the art of fashioning these little
homes for their avian pets.
Wren houses are being made with par
ticular care, because these birds must
have opening of such slxe that larger
birds cannot enter and disrupt the do
mestic life of the wrens. Wrens also
prefer tiny apartmenta In their housea.
The naturea of the blrda were studied
before designing these houses.
One of the boys at Fort school waa
so pround of his bird house that he
asked if he could have It for his own
use, rather than letting It go to some
park where he might never bo able to
Identify It. Other boys asked to have
their houses marked with Identifications
so they mlnht observe them when placed
in the parks.
There will be about 2M of these houses
from the public schools. Commissioner
Hummel and the school officials will
hold a public exhibit of the bird bouses
the latter part of next month.
