While few menageries or geological

the members Of the animal world
which they contain. the general public
is nevertheless quite familiar with the
appearance and characteristics OF the
great ungulates. They have been de.
scribed In word and picture by in

and writer's, even of the en- est times.
We find unmlstakable reference to
them in the records of the ancient

doubt that the behemoth OF the Billie
was identical with the hippopotamGs.
The Central Park Zoo of New York
City, is particularly fortunate In the
possession Of three splendid speci'

young one. The pair. Caliph and Miss
Murphy, are well known, not only to
those directly interested In these mat

the huge brutes have been described

Country Editors Day of Triumph

Chula has been placed upon the maps,
