SING, SlNG!—Johan Bojer once wrote a novel called “The Prisoner Who Sang.” The inmates of Sing-Sing Prison in America have decided to do their singing in a vicarious fashion and have built this pleasing bird-house in one of the prison yards. Here they have housed one of the finest collections of birds in captivity. Feathered birds; not inmates! The bird-house was designed and built entirely by the prisoners.
