So seems to be the conclu sion easily reached by hear ing of a permissable act in behalf' of the hungering birds.

According to Don Jenkins, acting Beaverton postmaster, patrons may ease the hungry look in the eyes of their fine feathered friends by the sim ple business of mailing them a package of grain or other birdseed. It seems that the ponder ous moguls of the postal ser vice have got around to con sidering the plight of num erous birds, cut off from a normal supply of food because of heavy snows and freezing weather. The procedure de cided upon merely requires the mailing of a package of bird food, addressed to a rur al mail carrier, who is auth orized to stop his labors and come to the aid of any des perntely hungering birds he might see. during his travels.
