How The Golden PIOVer
Comes to These Islands
Use Such a Difficult Route 2

The evolution of the elliptical route
of the golden plover, wonderful though
if is in it's present extended form, is
easily traced through its various
stages. Toward the end of the glacial
era, when the ice began to recede, the
peninsula of Florida was submerged
and a comparatively small area of land
in the southeastern United States was
free from ice. Any golden plover that
attempted to follow up the retreating
ice must have been confined to an all
land route from Central America
through Mexico and Texas to the west.
ern part of the Mississippi Valley AS
larger areas of the eastern United
States were uncovered and became
available for bird habitation, extension
of the route would be to the northeast,
until in time the whole of the Missis-
sirpi Valley to the Great Lakes could
be occupied
AS the migration route heightened
and powers of flight developed, there
would arise a tendency to straighten
the line and shorten it by cutting off
some of the great curve through Texas
and Mexico. A short fight across the
western end of the Gulf of Mexico was
finally essayed, and this gradually
heightened and its points of depi rture
and arrival moved eastward until even.
tually the roundabout curve through
Texas was discarded and the flight
was made directly from southern Loui.
siana across the Gulf.
AS the great areas of Canada were
added to the birds domain, other con
ditions arose. Here appeared a vast
new stretch of coast and plain-the
Labrador peninsula-offering in the
fall rich stores of the most delectable
berries and fruits, but at migrating
time, in the spring, bound by frost anC
shrouded in fog. Since Chinook wind!
made the climate of the interior of the
continent just east of the Rocky Noun
tains especially favorable for sprini
migration, there arose gradually divid
ing of the spring and fall routes, tn,
fall. route tending eastward, while tn,
spring route remained unchanged
When the fall route had worked east
ward to the Gulf of st. Lawrence,
shortening began to take out the grea
westward curve of the New Englan
coast. A short ocean flight was a
tempted; and, when this proved sue
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-24

was extended eastward across Boring
Strait to Alaska.
If all these extensions took place be-
fore there was any cutting off of cor
ners in the migration route, then at
this stage of development the Alaska
breeding birds were journeying over
1000 miles to reach the Low Archi-
pelago, distant only little more than
5000 miles on an airline.
1t is fair to suppose that early in
the course of -he eastward extension
among the Pacific islands, the plover
began to shorten the roundabout jour
ney by flights from the northern is
lands to eastern Asia, and finally to
Japan. The most northern island is
Palmyra, and the fight from there
westward to the nearest of the Mar
shall Islands is about 1000 miles;
thence a 3,OOO-mile journey, with sew
eral possible rests, brings the birds to
Japan.
1t is easily possible that birds ac-
customed to this 5,0OO-mile flight might
be driven by storms a thousand miles
out of their course and discover Ha-
waii. When from Hawaii they attempt
ed to reach Japan they would find a
chain of islands stretching for LOO
miles in the desired direction, and the
final fight of 1000 miles from the last
of these-the Midway Islands-to ia
pan would be no longer than previous
flights to which they had become ac-
customed.
Having once learned The route from
the Midway Islands to Japan, it would
be natural that the place of alighting
on the Asiatic coast should be gradual
ly carried north and east until the
direct flight was made from the Mid
way Islands to the Aleutians. A nat
ural and easy carrying of this line
eastward would result in the present
route between Hawaii and Alaska.
Neighbors and Strangers.
Both the American and Pacific colder
plovers nest in Alaska near Berinl
Strait, the former on the north ant
the latter on the south side of the
) strait. The American bird reached
there by a westward extension from
Canada, and the Pacific by an east
ward extension from Siberia. The
: birds themselves are so nearly alike
that only an expert can distinguish
them; and, Notwithstanding they ar,
! such near neighbors during the sum

them utter strangers; for those nortl

f while the others make a 3,00O-mil
e fight directly south to their winte
e home in Hawaii
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-24

cessful, it was extended until the
present direct route across the Atlantic
as obtained.
How Does The Plover Find Its Way to
Hawaii.
The above gives a probable and
fairly satisfactory explanation of the
origin of the present migration route
of the golden plover over the Atlantic
Ocean. But this is a very simple prob
lem compared with that presented by
the Pacific golden plover The Ha-
waiian Islands are in the middle Of
the Pacific Ocean, distant 1000 miles
from California on the east, 2,4O0 miles
from Alaska on the north, and . 700
miles from Japan to the west. Golden
plover in considerable numbers fly
each fall the 2,4OO miles across an
islandless sea from Alaska to Hawaii,
spend the winter there, and fly back
again the next spring to nest in Alaska.
But how did they first find their way
to Hawaii?
1t is not to be supposed that any
birds would deliberately strike out
over unknown seas hunting for a new
winter home. 1t is scarcely more
probable that, even if a large flock was
caught in a storm and carried far out
of its course to the Hawaiian shores
the birds would change in a single sea
son habits of countless generations
and start at once a radically new mi
grafton route. 1t has already been said
that present migration routes are evo
lutions-age-long notifications of Other
routes. The problem, then, is to fine
some migration route from which the
golden plover's present Hawaiian-Alas
kan route could have been easily ant
naturally derived.
The bird breeds on the northern
shores of eastern Siberia, from the
Liakof Islands to Boring Strait, an(
on the Alaska side of the strait soutl
to the northern base of the Alask;
peninsula. 1t winters on the main
land of southeastern Asia, in the east
ern half of Australia, and Throughout
the islands of Oceanica, from Formosi
and the Liu Kin Islands on the north
west to the Low Archipelago in TIL
southeast.
The breeding range has an east-and
, west extension of about LOO miles
d while the winter home extends nearl
: half around the globe-1O,OOO miles
e from India to the Low Archipelago. Ur

SUNDAY-SCHOOL COUNCIL OF
EVANGELICAL DENOMINA-
TlONS MEETS.

The first annual meeting of the
Sunday-School Council of Evangel-
cal denominations was held in this
city Wednesday and Thursday, Janu-
airy % and 26, in the Assembly Room,
ninth floor, new Hermitage Hotel
There were present fifty-eight edit
ors. publishers and Sunday-school
secretaries, representing nineteen
evangelical denominations.
Strong papers and addresses were
presented, emphasizing the vital i'm
portance of religious training and the
relation of such training to the larg-
er interests and welfare of the ma
ton. The Rev. Alexander Henry,
d. D., Secretary of the Presbyterian
Board of Publication and Sabbath
School Work, Philadelphia, in an
able and Illuminating paper, pre-
scented the relation Of Sunday-school
work to the foreign and immigrant
population of America, pointing QUO
the exceptional opportunity which
this field affords to Sunday-school
workers, The Rev. j. M. Duncan,
d. D., of the Presbyterian Church of
Canada, spoke on the "Sunday-School
in It's Relation to Citizenship" The
new evangelism of religious educa-
ton was outlined by the Rev. David
G. Downey, D. D., of Chicago, Core
spending Secretary OF the Board Of
Sunday-Schools for the Methodist
Episcopal Church, his topic being
"The Sunday-School as an Evangelis-
tic Force" This new Interpretation
of evangelism according to which
the church is to more carefully
guard and protect the child against
the influences which. tend to stife
and thwart his normal religious de-
velopment, was received with enthu-
siasm.

SUNDAY-SCHoOL &C
VENTION.

Among the important meetings to
be held in Nashville during the
month of June will be the Baptist
State Sunday-School Convention and
the B. Y. P. U State Convention,
both meetings are attracting atten-
ton from every part of the state. In
formation comes from Mr.. l.. G.
Moore, of Memphis, President of the
State Convention that West Tennes-
nessee which has heretofore been
the life of both state organizations
because of its large delegations, pur-
poses to send two special coaches.
1t will be remembered that these del
egations passed through Nashville
en- route from Chattanooga last year.
The State Convention will be held
either at the First Baptist Church,
Spruce street, or at the Mt. Olive
Baptist Church, Cedar street. The
matter is being discussed by the city
ministers and it will be definitely
stated later on which church will en-
terrain them.
The plan, according to the West
Tennessee peoples version, is to
have more life injected into the state
young peoples meetings by conven
ing last year in the eastern portion
of the state and this year in the
central. A careful poll made by
the Baptist churches shows that
from Nashville to Bristol there is
quite a Baptist following, which
could be easily brought to the CAPT
tai City for this state meeting. UI
to last year Nashville enjoyed the
distinction of having the president Of
the Sunday-school department, but
owing to his Illness and inability tc
attend the meeting, some slight
changes were made, but the city Sun
day-schools, about forty-fve in mum
Der, are unit in their purpose ant
plan for entertaining the coming
state convention.
