Mr.. Geo. r. Ames, who died yes
terday at his residence in the west
ern part Of the city, was born at
Plymouth, Mass, in 1908. He was
a descendant of one of the original
settlers of that ancient and his
toric town, and was connect-
ed by ties of blood to many OF
the men of rank who, in the be-
ginning of this century, helped
to develop New England. When
quite q young man, finding the
field for action circumscribed in
old Plymouth, he went to western
New York, which was then will
dernsss. Later he pushed out to
the prairies Of Illinois. where he
settled with his family and became
Q prominent and respected mem Der
Of the community. About eight
years ago, though past the age al
lotted to man, he came to our Sec
ton and, with characteristic ener-
gy, set about planting the orange
and the lime, which he has lived
to see bear fruit. HIS faith In the
future Of Southern California neveI
wavered. Few men have lived 9
more useful life than Mr.. Amss.

The Nightingale.

One Of the most celebrated Of
song-birds is the nightingale, OF
night singer. IL is migratory
bird. Do you know what this is
II is bird that visits it's mort hern
home e,rly 10 the spriny. aul quits
it for tha south early in tue autumn.
It migra.es.
THIS famous bird is oonm,n in
nearly all parts OF Europe. II
hanuts woods. thickets, ani gardens.
It migrates into Egypt and Syria.
It has been seen among tho willows
Of Jordan an1 tho olive trees OF
Ju1eI Ia uo,p,rt Of Eirop, is il
moro common than in Spain or
Italy but even iu these southern
region, the bird is migratory.
The nightingale is shy in its
habits. Its nest is placed low, and
hidden from view. Its eggs, five in
nunber, are OF an olive brown. Its
food consists OF insects. In color it
is brown, with q relllsh tibye on
the back aud tail.
As a songster, the bird is unsur-
passed. Though its notes are heard
at Intervals during tho day, they are
poured forth in their greatest per-
fociiou on quiet evenings, an hour or
two after sunset and when tho
moon is nearly full, aud the wealth
er is serene, tho meloiious song OF
the nightingale may DO heard at
midnight.
Tho late Bishop Stanley, of Eng
land, gives an account Of one that
ho raised from tho nest. IL was
kept in cage two years then the
cage was huug open at the door,
and the bird was allowed to go out.
At FIRST it returned regularly
every evening, As the season ad-
vanced, it sometimes stayed out all
night in the garden but il called
by somo one whose voice it knew, it
would return and feed from his
hand. In tho autumn, as the even
ings got cool, it returned to its cage
again before nightfall. 1t was taxi
en ~ nRual into the house, aud was
kept there for winter. This ia
curious instance OF the force of hab-
it overcoming tho instinct Of a
bird.
