He has been a lover of birds all his life and while necessity has required his engagement in other pursuits for many years, he at last got into the bird business on East Railroad avenue about a year ago. A winter fire that dstroyed the Harding block consumed the bird business, with the exception of "Eli- nor" a parrot that was saved by vir- ute of an eloquent vocal appeal to the fire fighters.in the new "Bird House" are a vari- ety of winged creatures, and a gener- ous supply of gold fish. Aquariums and imported bird cages are featured. comprises one of Wilmette's finest If business blocks.
