The swans, both black and white. are
devoted to their offspring, and ready to
do battle to any enemy in their de-

drive another from disputed territory
on the islands of Stow Lake. and then
there are little swans in need of a step
mother. The other swans and ducks
decline TO adopt them and then they
need human care

and the waif was taken into the boat

was the superintendent of Woodward's
Gardens and who consequently comes

feather duster to snuggle under every
night and 1t answered the purpose so
admirably that the swan waif. like the
children in Mrs. Hemans' poem, grew
in beauty day by day"
Not infrequently the wild ducks nest
out of season. and their broods would
perish in the winter rains if they were
left uncared for. Officer Ohnimus gathers

wrapping them UP with an. old towel
and hot-waterS bottle until they can
grow feathers enough to keep them
selves warm.
