Excerpt from Jack Miner on Current Topics

Miner and the Birds, in 1923, there has been an enormous amount Of interest in the work the noted Canadian naturalist has been doing and in the experiments he has been carrying on at his bird paradise at Kingsville, Ontario. This interest has been increased by the exceedingly Wide sale of the first book in the United States as well as in Canada, and also by Uncle Jack's lectures in hundreds of centres all over the continent.

While Mr. Miner is naturally a busy man, working With the birds in the migration periods Of spring and fall, travel ling Widely for his lectures, speaking at Chautauquas and summer camps, he does find time once in a While to do some writing in his own inimitable way. Some Of this has been worked out in magazine articles, some other items in letters to newspapers, other bits Of it in letters to personal friends, and again in random notes on subjects he was interested in. Of course, Uncle Jack has never been prolific in his writing and When one knows the absolute downright wholeheartedness with Which he turns out one Of these magazine articles or letters, and how hard it is to bring himself to do so, his literary product must be all the more appreciated.
