No—we forget.
Among other generous gifts to the
City of Bonham, is a small plot of
ground, in the East part of town,
donated by Bailey Inglish for a
burial ground.
Was the gift appreciated?
A visit to the Inglish Cemetery
gives the answer to that question.
Unfenced, unkempt, neglected,
it doesn’t do much honor to our Pio-
neers Heroes.
This year a few interested ones
(and the whole town of Bonham
should be interested) have under-
taken the task of raising funds by
private subscription to put a decent
fence around the place, and work
will begin just as soon as sufficient
funds are secured, and we are asking
your help in putting over this worth-
while project—Fence Committee.

TWO CORMORANTS KILLED
BY CHAS. WOOD, WARDEN
Charles Wood, who is a game
warden at Lake Davey Crocket,
north of Honey Grove, was in Bon
ham, Monday morning. He says he
recently shot and killed ia pair of cor-
morants at the lake.
Most of us are not acquainted with
a cormorant. The dictionary says he
is a greedy, voracious bird, and Mr.
Wood says they are nearly as big as
a buzzard. It is a well known fact
the Chinese employ trained cormo-
rants to catch fish. A ring is placed
around the neck of the bird, and he
is allowed to alight on the water,
after he is securely lariated out. He
does not bring in the bacon, but he
gets the fish.
When the cormorant sights1 a fish
it is all over. The cormorant dives,
and then swims, under water, to
catch his prey. He has large, web
feet, and he can swim faster than
the fish can, so the race goes to the
swift, that time, and is soon over. It
does not take a bunch of cormorants
long to clear any pool or lake of all
the fish in it worth while.
There are several species of this
greedy bird over the world, and this
pair of them are a long way from
home, since the northeast part of
North America is accredited as their
home. Being fleet of wing, they can
go where they please. Gulls from
the seashore have been seen at Lake
Kemp, west of Wichita Falls, and
the duck you see in the air, some
chisp morning, has just got down to
where you are from the upper
reaches in Canada. They have free
transportation,, never have to stop
for’fuel and oil en route, only water,
now and then. They get free their
air on the way.
Bert Chandler of Windom was in
