Wilburn Smith Center To Be Dedicated May 8th At East Central
Wilburn Smith Center To Be Dedicated May 8th At East Central University HHS Graduate Influenced Many Careers Wilburn Smith was living his dream in Holdenville, Okla., during the late 1970s. He was serving as manager of the local IGA grocery store, working hard each week, with the promise of ultimately being offered a chance to purchase the thriving business. Then something unexpected happened. The store owner, for whom Smith had worked for over a decade, sold the business out from under him. The promise of ownership disappeared and, in 1980, with no other training and no other prospects, Smith took his cousin, Mike, up on an offer: to sell Pre-Paid Legal plans. Taking a leap of faith, Smith launched a career that would span three decades and see him rise to the role of president of a New York Stock Exchange company. Along the way, his grocery store salary would be eclipsed and multiplied … by hundreds. “Wilburn was never afraid of multi-level marketing and the tobiography, “The Pre-Paid Lework,” said his wife, Carol. “He ensuing growth spurt was al- gal Story,” that “our entire sales just needed a chance.

In that role, Smith continued to build the Pre-Paid Legal sales force. His travels throughout North America frequently drew standing room only crowds eager to hear how this smalltown Oklahoma entrepreneur had made it big. Working in tandem with Stonecipher, he helped lead to the emergence of the Ada-based company as a jewel on the New York Stock Exchange. His message – be persistent and consistent – described his work ethic and dedication. “This business (sales) is simple, but it’s not easy,” he frequently told the audiences. “You have to get used to being told ‘no’…some will, some won’t.” Smith knew what he was talking about when he said the business wasn’t easy. At least twice during his tenure he was saddled Continued on Page A-3 Holdenville TRIBUNE www.holdenvilletribune.com VOLUME 11, NUMBER 19 HUGHES COUNTY, OKLAHOMA 1 SECTION 50¢ WEDNESDAY, APRIL 25, 2012 Prentice Leewright Honored Reception Held For Gifted Local Artist Special guests at the reception for Prentice were his daugh- Prentice is shown with his nephew Charles Leewright.

One title caught her eye: “Men’s Secret Fear About Their Working Wives.” She decided to get a first hand account. “What’s your innermost fear about my working?” she asked her husband. “That you’ll quit,” he promptly replied. —CC— All of our readers have above average intelligence. With that in mind, it is now time for the “Quiz for Bright People.” There are only nine questions. This is a quiz for people who know everything. I found out in a hurry that I didn’t.

The move has touched a nerve and led to television and radio interviews from as far away as Australia for Mike Vuick, owner of McDain’s Restaurant and Golf Center in Monroeville, Pa. It has also sparked strong opinions among those who applaud his decision and those against it. Mr. Vuick said he had received 2,000 emails, running 11-to-1 in favor of his decision. “I’m doing this on behalf of all the kind, refined people who have emailed me who have had meals ruined,” said Mr. Vuick, a former high-school sociology and psychology teacher. “I’ve decided someone in our society had to dig their heels in on this issue.” One regular patron, Stephanie Kelley, said she was upset her 13-month-old son, Jamison, would no longer be welcome as of Saturday, the day the ban takes effect. She said she emailed Mr. Vuick to suggest he ban kids after a certain hour or partition off a kids-only area, but he said he wouldn’t budge. “All children do not have meltdowns, and I don’t feel I should have to suffer the repercussions,” she said. Ms. Kelley, who said she has dined at the restaurant weekly for the past three years, doesn’t plan to eat there again. She may be the exception. On Tuesday night, receipts at the 60seat restaurant, which is attached to a golf-training facility with a driving range and putting greens, were up 20%. Mr. Vuick’s story spread after he emailed regular customers about the ban last week, and a customer phoned a local TV station. A poll on the website of a Pittsburgh TV news channel found 64% supported the under-six ban, compared with 26% who said it was a bad idea. About 10% said they didn’t care. More than 10,000 people voted. How would you have voted? —CC— Quiz Answers: 1. the one sport in which neither spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends: Boxing. 2. North American landmark constantly moving backward: Niagara Falls. The rim is worn down about two and a half feet each year because of the millions of gallons of water that rush over it every minute. 3. Only two vegetables that live to produce on their own for several growing seasons: Asparagus and rhubarb. 4. The fruit with its seeds on the outside: Strawberry. 5. How did the pear get inside the brandy bottle? It grew inside the bottle. The bottles are placed over pear buds when they LPXLP LEGAL NOTICE IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF HUGHES COUNTY STATE OF OKLAHOMA Case No. PB-2012-27 In the Matter of the Estate of DOROTHY J.

It was during those times, he said, when the true beauty of his business emerged: he continued to be paid on memberships he had sold as well as those his organization sold while he was unable. Over the last decade, Smith continued in his role as national marketing director for the company. His health had continued to decline and he was faced with the need for a kidney transplant as well as other ailments. Still, his business thrived and his income grew. Ultimately, Smith lost his battle with the many health issues that plagued him over the last five years of his life. He passed away in May of 2011 and hundreds of friends traveled to Ada to show their respects for the man who had influenced their lives in such a positive way. His wife, Carol, decided to memorialize his work ethic and “persistent and consistent” message. A $250,000 gift to East Central University allowed for the creation of the Wilburn L. Smith Center for Entrepreneurship inside the Harland C. Stonecipher School of Business. The center will be a focal point of the school, permanently affixing Smith’s name with Stonecipher’s name. A formal program announcing the Wilburn L. Smith Center for Entrepreneurship will be held on May 8 at ECU. This luncheon event is part of the school’s annual “Entrepreneur of the Year” recognition made available via the Leonard Limes Endowed Lecture. Several of LegalShield’s top sales people will be on hand for the event to comment on the influence Wilburn Smith had on their careers. About 20 years ago I watched as the “Governor’s Trophy” (a big gold looking cowboy hat) was awarded to the winner— Oklahoma. Well, as so often happens, OU won that year and much to my surprise one of the OU players put it on and went gallivanting around showing off his spoils. This was the first time I had seen such a relaxed attitude toward such an expensive showpiece, especially a traveling trophy. I wondered what would happen if such an important artifact would get damaged or even lost. I thought of all that one night while checking to make sure our coveted 1983 Class 2-A State Golden Ball Championship trophy was still in its proper place—in the trophy case in the Allen Gym. It is and I’m always glad no one has stolen it or anything of that sort. It’s good that the trophy is properly secured or some kid would (like the OU player in Texas) get it out and start trying to dribble with it. Getting my thoughts back to OU, they possess seven National Champion football trophies which they keep under better security than which the Government places around the U. S. Constitution on display in Washington, D. C. Then there is Jenni Carlson writing about the carelessness at The University of Alabama. They won one of those beautiful crystal National Championship trophies last year. I don’t know how many they have (but I’m sure someone will tell me next week) but they didn’t take very good care of this one. Some brainless idiot put the thing on a flimsy pedestal where the first time a clumsy viewer came through, it would get knocked over and broken. Sure enough it wasn’t long before an “unnamed” player tripped on the carpet and knocked it off. Broke it to smithereens. Now you all know me, I’m not all that critical of people but if that old boy is that clumsy he shouldn’t be playing football anywhere except maybe at the University of Texas. If you let clumsy people suit up you can wind up like Oklahoma that time in Nebraska. Billy Sims fumbled the ball away on the 2-yard line and we lost the game. Clumsy! Alabama isn’t alone in their ability to make poor choices. Florida State had two trophies stolen in 2004. Then in 2008 a poorly coordinated boy named Orsen Charles somehow fumbled the crystal trophy away breaking it into a million shards. Sounds like a bad joke or something. Perhaps schools like Florida State and Alabama should be made to attend a special school called: “How to care for and protect your new Championship trophy.” Anyway, I’m proud and pleased that so far no one has busted into the Switzer Center or anywhere else in the Gaylord Family Football Stadium and stolen any of our precious trophies nor have they been placed in such a manner to get knocked over, played with or otherwise endangered. You know how free Oklahoma is with that death penalty—not to mention having Bob Stoops mad at you. All this causes me to wonder: When are we (Allen) going to go after a State Basketball Championship again? It’s been a long time since 1983 and while I saw some very good basketball players playing championship level ball most of the season, I didn’t see but one who had actually won it and he was the coach. Don’t forget to go to church next Sunday. And try not to break anything. Wayne Bullard, Pharm.

Competition was weighty, boys against girls in each of the two elementary buildings (pre-K through 2nd and 3rd through 6th) and classes against each other. In the pre-K through 2nd elementary building, Alicia Mills’ kindergarten class won the class LPXLP competition with 52 pounds, 4 ounces in coins. Loretha Golden’s pre-K class came in second place, with 52 pounds, 1 ounce. In the boys against the girls contest in that building, the boys’ coins weighed in at 70 pounds, 4 ounces. The girls weighed in at 70 pounds, 12 ounces. Coordinator Marcella Mantooth was told by Mrs. Golden’s girls that the boys had helped them (they have three girls and 10 boys in their class). She declared a tie between the boys and the girls in their building. What a neat thing the boys did, so all the children were treated to homemade chocolate chip cookies made by Marcella.

EASTER IS A DOZEN THINGS—CHURCH, EGGHUNTS AND VISITING Easter on the city scene means a dozen different things to different people and varying ages. For some, Easter is inextricably bound up in the muted radiance of sunlight slanting down through stained glass window to touch a spray of Easter lilies or highlight a polished pew at church. For others it’s a buoyant feeling that stems from the consciousness of the flattery of a new hat or the good lines of a suit; and for almost all ages Easter is partly the memory of running with the wind down a sunlit slope in an egg hunt. At any rate, whether today means going to church and coming home for a quiet day or whether it means visiting, there’s a special, exclusively Easter, feeling in every home. Here are a few of the goings and comings that will mark the day. At the home of Mr. and Mrs. George E. McMurry for Easter are Mr. and Mrs. L.W. White and son, David, from El Reno, Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Criswell and Mr. and Mrs. Glen McMurry from Wewoka, and Buddy McMurry, who’s at home. Mr. and Mrs. Homer Clawson and their trio of children, Loy Jean, Donna and Billy Bob, from Gainesville, TX, are here, and Dave Clawson is here from Wichita, KS, to spend Easter with Mrs. Roy Clawson. The Homer Clawsons will also visit her father, C.W. Hawthorne here. Here from Denison, TX, are Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Wilkerson and daughter, Catherine, who are visiting Mr. And Mrs. Jack Pray, Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Pray and Mr. and Mrs. T.B. Sweeney. Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Agan and Mike, had as guests Saturday Mrs. Agan’s sister, Mrs. Helen Van Nest Treadway and son, Alex jr., from Dallas. They were en route to Tulsa for Easter and the Agans may have decided to go, too. Mr. and Mrs. J.O. Young went To Oklahoma City yesterday and are guests today of Mr. and Mrs. J.O. Young jr., and Donnie and J.O. III; and of Mr. and Mrs. James Young and children, James, Barbara Jo and Jerry Ann. Guests of Mrs. C. O. Lucas today are Mrs. R.H. Puckett and Mrs. John H. Frederickson, both from Norman. Both the guests are fraternity house hostesses at OU. Mrs. Puckett is at the Phi Si house, and Mrs. Frederickson at Sigma Chi. Mr. and Mrs. Reed Rushing and daughter will spend Easter with Mrs. Rushing’s sister, Mrs. Harold Frank, at Bokchito. Also going to Bokchito for the day were Mr. and Mrs. R.B. Knight, who will be guests of Mr. Knight’s stepmother, Mrs. E.H. Knight. Here to spend the holiday with Mr. and Mrs. A.C. Bailey are their daughter and grandchildren, Mrs. Cecil Cobb and Anita Jo and C.D. from Gladewater, TX. At the Frank Crane home there’ll be a daughter and sonin-law and a son and daughterin-law to spend the day quietly after coming home from church. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Hilton will be here from Oklahoma City, and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Crane Jr., who live here, will also be there for the day. Two New Yorkers who’ll go to church this morning with the George McMichaels’, whom they’re visiting here, are Mr. and Mrs. H.B. Christiansen. Mrs. Christiansen is Mrs. McMichael’s sister. Mr. Christiansen in a professional caterer in New York. Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Kirk of Amarillo, TX, are here to spend Easter with Mr. and Mrs. John Kirk. Mr. and Mrs. Ben T.

Hamiltons will be Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hamilton from Ada and Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Hamilton from Oklahoma City. The later couple, Cecil and Dorothy, won’t be able to come though, until after church today, because Continued on Page A-6 PAGE A-6—HOLDENVILLE TRIBUNE—APRIL 25, 2012 The Year Was 1949 Continued from Page A-5 Dorothy is organist at First Baptist church in Oklahoma City, and their Easter music program today is quite impressive, including the Messiah. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Thomas and Mr. and Mrs. George Chesnutt will go to McAlester this afternoon to attend Scottish Rite Easter services of the Masonic lodge there. Mrs. R. R.

It has been a long time since they have been by and we have been missing them. Jean said Wayne has been going through a lot of health problems, one of the worst is problems with his back. He is really having a lot of trouble and is currently taking shots. Please keep him in your prayers. They shared a picture of their great-granddaughter Addie Mancello, who lives in Midwest City and comes to visit them often. She is two and a half years old and rules the roost at her Great-Grandpa Wayne’s house. They said she is full of energy and if you want to keep up with her, then you’d better be sure and have your energy pumped up when she gets there. They said she is a very happy little girl and a joy to be around. —DD— Bill stopped by to see our dear friend Edna Cooper. She is one of the finest Christian ladies I have ever known and a joy to be around. Bill has never forgotten when her husband, the late Garrett “Pap” Cooper and Meredith operated the Conoco Service Station across from Dean’s Car Wash. They didn’t make much money, but they had a good time! The Cooper family is so special to us. Bill keeps a poem that Jack Cooper wrote about Gert in his desk. It is one of his prize possessions. The world needs more people like the Coopers. —DD— Kevin Tatum came through Game Night News We had 15 “Moon” players tonight! We were glad to see Loita Sharp back with us. We had really missed her! Partners were Loita and Janice Eller, Marie Grimes and Arjean Williams, Reba Lovelace and Betty Adams, Geraldine Ingram and Sharon Dilday, Glenda Smith and Sue Wood, Shirley Hardwick, Norma Summy and Lynn Marquis. Hey, wait a minute. How can Lynn have two partners? The answer is that Lynn and Shirley were partners in the first round and when they lost, Shirley went home and Norma took her place! Norma and Lynn went on to win 6 games including Lynn shooting the moon and making it! Actually, they had already made 20 points but she said that she had a lay-down hand and just had to shoot it! Show Off!! Glenda and Sue won 3 games. Reba and Betty won 2 games and Sharon and Geraldine won 6 games.Loita and Janice won 1 game while Marie and Arjean won 8 games including Arjean shooting the moon and making it! Way to go, Arjean! And the good news is that nobody got skunked! Reba brought Strawberry filled Oreo cookies and cheese and crackers. Thanks, Reba! And for those who were under the weather, get well quick as we really did miss you! See ya next week! his surgery just fine, but the results will not be known until the end of this week. I talked with his dad (Dub) and he said that at least they found out one good thing, “He does have a brain!” All joking aside, please keep Kevin and his family in your prayers. —DD— Sue Clark Adams was by the office Monday. She told us that Lowell’s treatments are at the halfway mark. He is doing okay, but we need to keep Lowell and Sue in our prayers. They are two of our dearest friends and have been a blessing to our family in many ways for many years. —DD— CORRECTION: Last week when I was talking about Collene Shores, I said that she and Gert went to school together. They did not! Collene was going to school at Buner when they played Yeager. Gert had already graduated, but was a big Yeager fan and was there when Collene scored all 12 points to defeat Yeager 12-11. Some of those playing on the Yeager team at that time were Billie Kathryn Shores, JoAnn Baker, Loretta Green and Christine Vail. They were all seniors and Collene was a freshman. Collene also shared a photo with us of the 50th wedding anniversary of Bill and Pat Swofford taken sometime around 2007. We appreciate her sharing this and other pictures with us. Collene is so enjoyable to visit with and we always look forward to her visits. —DD— In a recent conversation the question was asked, “Who was the last blacksmith in Holdenville.” None of us knew the answer but hope some of our readers might. I did recently run across an item about a Holdenville Blacksmith that may have set the record for years in business locally. His name was R.E.

National Day of Prayer to Be Recognized May 5, 2012 - Noon Our Founding Fathers poured out a great amount of blood, sweat, tears and prayers in the process of giving birth to one of the greatest man made documents ever to exist, our Constitution. This document has been the guiding light for our nation for some 240 years. As these men added the Bill of Rights to the Constitution, the first area they addressed was the freedom of religion. Because of the authority of government over religion in England, they wanted to make sure that our new government kept out of the business of the Church. That first amendment is familiar to all of us: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…. — The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution The Contintial Congress in 1775, a year before the Declaration of Independence was ratified called for a National Day of Prayer, asking the people of Don Chesser (left) is pictured taking the oath of office America to meet together and from board president, Bob Nelson. Chesser is the newly elected board member from Holdenville that will represent call upon God to give them and the Zone # 4 board member post for Wes Watkins Technolthis nation direction in seekogy Center. ing His will as they set about this great task. They knew they could not do it alone. Today we find ourselves at a cross roads in our nation. We are just like Israel in the time of the Judges when the Word tells us, “Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” Judges 17:6 A couple of years ago United States District Court Judge Barbara Crabb ruled that the National Day of Prayer that had been in existence since 1775, was unconstitutional. How incredible. She said this in her ruling: the day “serves no purpose but to encourage a religious exercise, making it difficult for a reasonable observer to see the Lincoln Electric representative, Dion Thornhill, recently brought a Lin- statute as anything other than a coln Electric SP-140T mig welder for students in the Architecture and Construction Career religious endorsement,” Majors at Wes Watkins Technology Center to use in their shop. Pictured left to right, In a time of great crisis in this Thornhill, Andy Smith, WWTC instructor assistant and Steve Killmer, WWTC director of business and industry services. land, our Founding Fathers recognized the need of reaching out to the Almighty but it seems that we have replaced God’s will with our own and we have done a very poor job. We like to think of Holdenville as a nice safe community, but we have all the crime and vice of Oklahoma City or Tulsa. We have replaced God with sexual freedom, violence and greed. This leaves us a choice, get back to God, or forget God altogether. The final alternative will mean the end of America as we know her. If you care about your community. If you care about America, we encourage you to join us on Thursday May 5th on the Hughes County Courthouse Lawn at 12 noon to have a time of prayer for our Land. Franklin Graham recently said, “Prayer is the most powerful resource we have in this life; yet many only turn to it as a last resort.” Let’s not wait until it is to late. Let’s show Judge Crabb that the people of God will not be deterred by some legal ruling. Jesus teaches us that we are to give unto Caesar (the government) the things that belong to Caesar but let us not give to the government what belongs to God. Come and express your religious freedom. Come and join us to pray for our Community and our Nation. Members from Girl Scout Troop 1300 recently visited the Oklahoma State Capitol during Scouting Day at the Capitol, Mar. 21.

HOLDENVILLE TRIBUNE—APRIL 25, 2012—PAGE B-3 from Dayna’s Desk Continued from Page B-1 retirement. R.E. BROWN, 79, IS RETIRING AFTER 50 YEARS AS BLACKSMITH R.E. Brown, who will be 80 years old in September, has been more than 50 years as a blacksmith, 30 years of which have been spent in Holdenville. Brown came to Holdenville in June, 1919 and purchased tools for a shop. Some of the tools have been in use the entire 30 years and are still in good condition, he said Friday. He began his blacksmith work on January 1, 1899 and was active in the work until last week, when he retired because of ill health and bad eyesight. “I saw the passing of horses and mules with the invention of automobiles and tractors and I hope to live to see more improvements in the world,” he said. In speaking of his early days as a blacksmith, he recalled some of the horses he has been called on to shoe. He admitted that at times he has had considerable trouble with some of them but claimed that he has never failed to do any job that he was called on for. “I would like to continue my work, but I feel that it would not be safe for me to take a chance of a serious injury which could be caused by a fall. I don’t think I can ever be as happy not working as I was during my 30 years of business in Holdenville,” Brown declared. —0— If any of our readers remember a local blacksmith or the location where one used to be, please let us know. —DD— It was nice to hear from some of our readers this week and we wanted to share their notes with you: Hello again, Please renew the Holdenville Tribune for another year. I am enjoying all the stories. Thank you, Bill Barksdale —0— So glad to get the Tribune with news of Holdenville and mention of people I was in high school with—graduating in ’48. What a great life growing up there. SO many wonderful memories. Keep up your good work— Barbara Green Durrett —DD— Jim McCorpin called the office recently to purchase the Tribune for Claudine Alt. Jim graduated from HHS in 1952 and hopes to be here for his 60th class reunion in June. Many of our readers remember Jack Alt. Jim told us that he is 86 years old and doing good. We always enjoyhearing from former residents and appreciate those that mail us some of their memories. —DD— Later that day, Bill and Bruce Foster were talking about their days in the National Guard. Bruce and Bill both agreed that Wayne Smith helped a lot of local youngsters in many ways during some difficult times. There is not a nicer man than Wayne and all of his good deeds and concern for others has not been forgotten. When I talked to Bruce last week I asked him how his sons are doing. He said they are both doing very well and that Jon and his wife Taloa are expecting twin boys. They have a seven year old daughter named Jadyn and when Bruce asked her what she thought about having twin brothers, she said she wasn’t happy because she wanted a sister! She told her grandpa she was still going to dress them up like girls and put them on Facebook!! —DD— Our cousin Rick Abernathy called Monday. He is doing great and hopes to come to Holdenville in June. It has been a long time since we have seen him and really look forward to his upcoming visit. He said he talks to his longtime friend and HHS graduate Jack Dickinson often. Jack lives in Oklahoma City. Bill and I spent many evenings in the home of Gene and Zula Abernathy (Rick’s parents). They were so much fun to be around and Zula was an outstanding cook. There was seldom a day went by that we didn’t see them. They have been gone for many years, but will never be forgotten. R —DD— Monday we had a visit from Beatrice Sheppard Conger. Beatrice attended Benedict School and said Clint LaValley was her principal. Some of the names she remembered from her school days were the Abernathys, Osbornes, Stones and Beans. Beatrice now lives in McAlester. We really enjoyed her visit. —DD— Debbie Andrews brought us by a delicious jar of honey. Debbie and husband Kevin own and operate Andrew’s Honey Bees in Holdenville. They have several different types of honey. Locally it is available at Nichols and Save-a-Lot. In Horntown you can purchase it at Lee’s Service Station. —DD— John Allen was by the office this past week. He is the grandson of Mrs. J.C. (Esther) Allen. She attended the First Baptist Church and before her death lived at 301 S. Oak. I can’t place Mrs. Allen and wonder if any of our readers remember her.

There were a few black birds and some other small birds flying around and we talked about what a great thing it would be if some group would build bird houses there so that when people took a drive around the area there would be birds they could identify. We came up with the idea that those birds could be blue birds then, by their color, people would be able to see them from their cars and know what kind they were. He got a group together and build blue birdhouses, they did. Then the birds came and this group maintains the houses each year. I came home from California and begun to do research on Blue Birds and their houses; how to build them, Moss High School students competed on Valentine’s Day at the East Central University Interscholastic Meet in Ada. Moss competed in small school Division 3. Four students won medals: Brandi Fletcher placed 2nd in Accounting 1st Year, teacher-Tonya Olivo; Garrett Lowe placed 3rd in Geometry, teacher-Cherina Brown; Billie Fitzgerald placed 3rd in Spanish 2nd Year, teacher-Joni Barrett/Celia Peixotto. Not pictured is Jake Williams who placed 1st in Shakespearean Verse Monologue, teacher-Dusty Sifers. the kind of food they eat, the number of hatches for one pair each season, etc. I begin to want to learn to build birdhouses and put them up around Healdton. Two years ago, on one of my visits to see my brother, he took me to the same area, and I was delighted to see the houses and the birds around the area. It turned out to be a great project. The place was transformed. This year my son, Charles Tee, came. I told him about my dream and he assembled the necessary tools and lumber and began to build blue birdhouses. He put two out in my yard, took some to the Healdton Lake and put two out at one of the parks. Some more research on the Internet provided more information and the houses were put in place in time for the birds to begin nesting. About two weeks ago, we went out to check on them, and found six at the lake had either eggs or hatched birds in them. There was one nest where we saw a small bird fly out of, and on inspection, found five very tiny eggs; light brown with dark brown spots on them and decided that it might be a chick-a-dee who was nesting in that house. One nest at the park had five blue bird eggs in it and the other had the very small eggs like the ones at the lake, and maybe in time we can identify what kind of bird uses that house. It also may be a chick-a-dee. I have learned one thing from this. The blue bird nests are very neat and symetrical; beautifully put together. They look as if an artist has made them. The chick-a-dee nests are simi- lar, but smaller and very neatly put together. Again, as if an artist made them. In the past, a friend and I had talked blue birdhouses. I visited with him last week and he told me of a new way to make the entry for the birds. Don’t make the round hole entrance on the front of the house. Build them so there is an opening between the lid and the sides and front of the house where the birds can enter. This opening would be the same height as the width of the hole. That way there is no room for any other bird to make entry, so the house will be kept ready for only the blue birds. I plan to try that.
