MIRROR THEIR FEELINGS
Scientist Declares Birds Show Many
Emotions and Proves II by Photo
graphs--TaIks to American
ornithologists

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 25.-"I'm no
nature faker, but am convinced that
such emotions as anticipation, supplica-
ton, satisr- -tion, surprise and attention
not only live in the breasts Of the feath-
cred tribe but that the outward express
sion of these emotions is mirrored In
the tiny faces of birds
This declaration by Clinton G. Abbott,
a well known scientist of New York,
caused a stir among members of the
twenty-fifth annual congress of Ameri-
can ornithologists at the Academy OF
Natural Sciences today.
With this declaration as the keynote
of one of the most notable addresses
ever delivered on the subject, DR.. Abbott
flashed upon the scene photograph
showing two small sparrows with the
mother bird upon the limb of a tree.
"While 1 was at Long Island / ar
ranged early one morning my camera
so that 1t would face a lamb of tree
in which I knew the sparrows shown in
this picture made their home" said DR..
Abbott. II attached long string to the
pressure bulb and then with this in
hand hid myself in some distant shrub
berry. The two younger birds appeared
and shortly after the mother, pluming
her wings as If for flight. moment
afterward she flew into the woods and
got photograph Of the little ones
awaiting her return. Their bills were
open, as you see them in the picture,
and there is no one who will not agree
with me that anticipation IS clearly evil
dent in the posture and in their bills and
tiny faces"
Unfed Bird Was Disappointed
There was an outburst of applause
after the audience had taken in the de-
tails of the picture.
Later, DR.. Abbott continued, IT got
picture OF the birds after the feeding.
The mother had returned with food for
one in her bill. On the face of the unfed
one was an expression of disappoint-
ment.,'
This picture was flashed on the screen.
There he continued, you can see
the little one Still crying for food. The
mother left again and returned with food
for the other. In another picture / have
the two satisfied youngsters on the limb
and the mother as satisfied in the nest"
This picture was shown and in the
pause there was another enthusiastic
demonstration from the audience.
''All the emotions specified" said DR..
Abbott, "are shown on the faces of
birds. I placed a stuffed owl in a tree
near the nest of catbird and then
waited until morning to see the express
sion on the birds face at the sight of
the stranger. In the morning the cat
bird came out looked quizzically at the
owl completely surprised at the pres
ence of possible enemy. He then made

OENATUREO ALCOHOL.
The New Law Applicable Only to Al
cohOI After Placed In Bond.


A rather interesting question has
arisen down in Maine with reference
to the manufacture of alcohol for in
dustrial purposes. Concerning the pro-
visions of the bill which became law
at the last session of congress and takes
effect Jan. l next, one of the ablest
lawyers of the state of Maine, which
is prohibition state, argues that no
person can manufacture alcohol under
this law In that state. The argument
is this-that the so called free alcohol
act takes no cogniZance of alcohol until
it is in bond. and its manufacture and
placing in bond must comply with the
law already existing and be governed
by the same conditions. Not until after
the alcohol has been completely manu-
featured and placed in the United
States warehouses can the free alcohol
bill be invoked
Some farmers have been led to be-
lieve that under this law they could
erect distilleries on their farms and
turn their various products into alcohol,
but even If they could do this in other
states not under prohibition law. they
could not do this where such law Is in
force. The purpose for which it is dis
titled makes no difference. 1t is dis
titled as alcohol and of such proof as
to be a strongly intoxicating liquor.
When placed in bond it Is in the GUS
tody Of state or court officers. The
owner has the option Of selling it in
the bonded warehouses subject to the
tax or to pay the tax on a barrel or
more at time and withdraw it from
bond or to withdraw it from bond de-
natured free Of tax. AS the grange
was foremost in the fight in securing
its manufacture in prohibition states
1t Is matter of considerable interest.
