One spring observed with much in
terest phoebe bird building her nest
not far from my cabin in the woods.
The male looked on approvingly, but
did not help. He perched most of the
time on a MULLEN stalk near the little
spring run where phoebe came for
mud
In the early morning hours she made
her trips at intervals of minute or
two. The male firted his tail and
called encouragingly, and when she
started up the hill with her load he
would accompany her part way, as it
were to help her over the steepest part,
then return to his perch and watch and
call for her return. For an hour or
more witnessed this little play in bird
life, in which the females part was so
primary and the males so secondary.
There is something in such things
that seems to lend support to Professor
Lester f. Wards contention, as set
forth in his Pure Sociology" that in the
natural evolution of the two sexes the
female was first and the male second;
that he was, in fact, made from her rib,
so to speak, and not she from his
