BIRDS SELECT ODD PLACES FOR WESTS Scin Makes Home in Buffalo By Skull in Park Museum. LEONARD A. BARRETT One of the best sellers of several decades past was a book entitled, : IIow the Other It Half Lives. was a vivid portrayal of the social conditions of a very large population of the un- -. in the large cities. To many, the book was an astounding revelation. Among these was the late Theodore RooSe velt who read the book and hastened to the study of the author, at that time living in the slums of New York. . The author was not in, but Mr. Roosevelt left his card upon which he wrote these words: Have read your book and came to help. The real message of the book was a plea for a mutual understanding between the social classes. Understanding is necessary in the solution of every problem. Many, like Mr. Roosevelt, would offer to help, if they understood the need to know how the other half lives. Perhaps those who happen to read these lines, live in a sheltered world, reasonably free from the fear of insecurity and reasonably sure of the necessities of life. Within our reach, if not actually within sight, may dwell others who are literally on the verge of hunger, and in serious need of courage and a helping hand. It is not the we spirit of this message to say oth-jshall exchange places with the half: such vehement expressions but overbalance the social scales, but it is imperative that we understand the thwarted ambitions of struggling youth, the utter discouragement of men and women who have lost their nerve, and the aching void in the lives of little children who go hungry to school. Unless we know something of the heartache of the world, we ourselves are poor Indeed. Unless favored social classes realise their power to change unwholesome environment and meet that power with adequate action, the light of social progress will remsin under the bushel of selfishness. What is our attitude toward this cross section of human experience? Do we take only a mental photograph of it all, look at the picture in our mind daily, and let it go? Or, do we resolve to do something about it? Do we know what it is to say: I came to help? We shall never really knew how the other half lives until we receive a smile of appreciation from someone who had almost forgot how to smile; until we are given broken, half - audible words which tell lifes story in letters of drab. No man can live unto himself. Life is too complex for that. This is true in local neighborhoods, in the life of throbbing cities, in national and in international affairs.

Peace belongs to mutual understanding:- and the beginning of understanding , is the fear of social power as well as social poverty.

Let us set up the words: I came to help on every tragic crossroad of life today. er - n. Winthrop, Mass. Birdies, usually much prized by golfers, have become a definite hazard on the Winthrop golf course. i Two larks built their nest 25 feet from the fifth green and soon there were three eggs. When the eggs had hatched, Warren G. Torrey, club officer, had a wire fence built around the nest for protection. I With Yellowstone Park, Wyo. more than 2,000,000 acres of woodland from which to choose, birds in Yellowstone National park are selecting strange places to nest, park ranger naturalists report A robin in the Old Faithful area disdainfully passed up the thick and of lodgepole pines and decided to make its home in a buffalo skull d hanging in the museum. A sparrow in the same vicinity decided that the ground in the museum amphitheater would be the ideal location for her offspring. She reared one brood there, decided that the location was too public and moved into a tree for her second family. Desiring complete privacy in a cottage another robin chose a convenient location behind a transom in the home of the assistant to the park superintendent, for her two families of four each while still another robin has chosen the superintendents home as being suitable environment for raising a family. At the Old Faithful museum the housing problem was reported as being acute, all apartments in the many bird houses being full. Mountain chickadees, bluebirds, tree d sparrows, swallows, and robins all live in the same block of houses. Two hundred sixteen species cf birds make their homes in the park, coming from the Gulf of Mexico, the south Pacific coast, and the north Pacific coast. Among the rarer species in Yellowstone are trumpeter swans, which are nearing extinction, and sand hill cranes. Ranger naturalists are able to point out dozens of species on nature walks which they conduct for the benefit of park visitors. white-crowne- one-fami- ly . white-crowne- Skeleton Are Baffling Paris Taxation Exports Paris. Taxation experts of the French republic are baffled by M. Jean Lavalette, who keeps a little shop in the Rue de LEcole de Medicine in Paris. Skeletons, half skeletons, skulls, all sections, reads the sign outside the shop. A real skull hanging outside makes it plainer. Is M. Lavalette a producer? This is important, for on January 1 the turnover tax on retail sales was abolished and replaced by a 6 per cent tax on manufactured articles in the last stage of their production. M. Lavalette mounts skeletons, building them up out of parts. Does that make him a producer? One way out would be for the customs to collect the tax, as most of the skeletons come from abroad. But there is no fixed scale of charges for skeletons, so how much is 6 per cent? M. Lavalette thinks that the tax collectors might as well give it up. His total earnings for last month were 15 francs about 93 cents. . 4 t There must be malcular linage on each lat FIXATION Washington.

Julio Rendon has returned to his native Yucatan prepared to make vinegar from honey, after conferring at Michigan State college for a week with Dr. F. W. Fabian of the bacteriology department. He intends to breed bees whose honey will be used almost exclusively in manufacturing vinegar which he will offer for sale. In this country, vinegar is produced from cider, Rendon said, but in Yucatan we have no fruits available for making cider. The vinegar made in Yucatan is very poor. Dr. Fabian added that throughout the tropics it was difficult to obtain proper acetic fermentation, and that in Mexico vinegar sold for 90 cents a pint. Much of it is imported from the United States.
