Mirrors SCARF Birtis,

According to the Washington Star n
postOtfice official who has been In the
Philippines says he learned there n
new method OF keeping birds out Of
fruit trees, which he described as fol
lows:
1T is simple, inexpensive and, as
far as l could observe, practical. II
consists In hanging small mirror on
the top limbs OF the tree. There
should be at least six inches OF string
TO the mirror. so that 1t can swing
about rs 1t Is blown by the wind. The
flash of the mirror, It appears, scares
the birds away. One or two 5-ccnt
mirrors hung on tree Is sufficient,
though, Of course. three or four would
he that much better. | was told that
this method had worked In the Phil
ippines successfully for many years.
and that the birds do not grow famil-
lar with it as they do with Il scare
crow. Since my return here find
that the mirror scare Is not unknown
here, and that 1t has been In use by
Michigan fruit growers for many
years. / have tried II myself In n

The bishops have yet to consider
canon 81, providing for the discipline
of persons marrying after having been
divorced. This will also cause lively
discussion.
Another important feature OF the
work OF the house of bishops to-day
was the appointment OF n committee
of five to act with similar committees
of priests and laymen. constituting u
joint committee of fifteen. In consid-
ering the proposed change in the name

San Francisco, Oct. 1O.-Another ag-
crcssiyc move has been made by the
American Sugar Refining Company. In
the campaign which it has begun
against the beet sugar industry. The
cut I'm the price of granulatcd sugar To
all Missouri river points. which was
announced last week, has been follow
ed by n reduction in the price of beet
and cane sugar in all states from Colo
RADIO TO California. The reduction was
announced by the Western Sugar Re-
tining Company. and amounts to ~
cents a hundred on beet sugar and 10
cents "A hundred ON cane sugar.
Robert OXnard. vice president of the
American Beet Sugar Association,
which is opposing the trust. said:
1T is n fact that the Western Sugar
Refining Company has made Il decline
of 20 cents per 100 Oh their cane sugars.
and 80 cents per 100 OH their beet, SUI

EPISCOPAL BISHOPS ADOPT
STRINGENT MARRIAGE RULES

sah francisco. Oct. 1O.-The action
OF greatest importance taken yester.
uny oy the Triennial Episcopal Con.
,eh,ion was the adoption by the
rouse or Bishops, by vote of 81 to

soienlhlzation of matrimony.
All OF lts provisions had previously
peen argued except those contained in
sectioh 4, which forbade the marriage

eXistlng before marriage" which is
understood to refer to such causes as
insanity, inability to execute n CON
tract, the existence of living wife or
husband, or like reasons which prac.
ucnliy rendered the marriage null md
void.
rms section has been a bone of con-
tention, strong element in the church
holdlng that the remarriage of the in
hocent party to n divorce granted on
the ground of lnfidelty should NOT he
forbidden. The bishops have refused
10 accept this view of the matter.
The question is by no means settled
as the whole subject is now to come
up III the house of deputies, where 1t
Is expected TO cause II protracted de-
pate. The canon. as finally passed by
the mouse OF bishops, reads:
canon ~. l-Of the solemnizntion OF
matrimony in this church. in which
the mutual consent Of each party en-
tering INTO this state of life is given
IN the presence OF Il minister. who
having pronounced them In the name
OF the Holy Trinity to be man and
Wife, invokes the divine blessing upon
their union.

which had not been previously trodden

results OF the Investigations Is DIR.

come upon North American soil via

were separate tribes with constant
tendencies toward civilization instead
OF retrogresslon, similar to the evolu.
