TO PROTECT BIRD LIFE
Movement on Foot For Protection
During Migration.

Washington, Nov. Charging the
wanton destruction OF insecivorous
birds in the United States with being
partly responsible for the high cost OF
living, the committee on wild life pro
lection of the fourth National Con-
servation congress has inaugurated a
nationwide campaign to induce Con-
gress at the coming session to enact
a law for the federal protection of mi
gratory birds.
Three such measures now are pend
ing in the congressional archives, any
one of which, according to William +.
Hornaday, director of the New York
Geological society ana chairman of
the committee, would be acceptable if
placed on the federal statute books
1t is proposed to bring pressure to
bear on Congress by the citizens Of
every state in the interest of the pass
age of one of these bills.
The committee has issued circu
lar showing the effect on the dinner
pail through the widespread destruc-
ton of migratory birds and conse-
quent increase in the insect hordes.
Request has been made of all Ameri-
can newspapers TO give publicity to
the matter so that farmers and fruit
growers may be brought TO realiza-
ton of the seriousness of situa-
ton and Congress appealed to for
relief
According to statistics issued by
the department of agriculture, which
are set forth in the committees cir
cular, insect pests cost the nation
about 1920, 100000 year. The value
of birds destroyed for games" and
for food" would not equal one
thousandth of the value they would
save to the national wealth if permit
ted to live and to wage war on the
insects, it is stated.
Regarding the slaughter of our
birds, the increase of insect pests and
the losses they infiict upon us, the
great mass of the American people
are sound asleep" the circular states
THE situation is illogical, absurd and
intolerable. AS reasoning things, it
is our duty to take hold of the subject
like men, stop the abuse, stop the
disgrace and avoid some of the loss"
Among the DlrdS sought TO De pro-
tected by a federal law are song
birds, swallows, woodpeckers, black
birds, quail, doves and nighthawks
Protection of game birds alone will
not answer, it is pointed out The
bills pending before Congress were
introduced by Representative Weeks
of Massachusetts, Representative An.
thony of Kansas and Senator Mclean
of Connecticut
The Weeks and Anthony measures
provide for the protection of migra-
tory game birds only, but the Nc
Lean bill goes step farther by in
GLIDING all migratory insectivorous
birds.
The next session of Congress is a
short session, ending March A. states
the circular THE people OF the ma
ton should call upon all their sena-
tors and representatives to take up
the Mclean bill as an emergency
measure and railroad it through be.
fore March 4. II enough constiiu-
ents demand this, it will be done.
Now is the time to do something prac
teal and get tangible result"

How to Choose Becoming colors.

However allurlng color may be, re-
member that 1t is your complexion
and your hair and eyes which must
be complemented. The old rule Of
matching the hair and eyes is not as
far astray as 1t might be. Women
with an instructive knowledge of color
may venture where others should be
wary So wonderfully artistic are the
combinations Of color selected by
women who know the values of color
as applied TO themselves individually
that one is often tempted to follow
their example. but 1t is well to hesitate
and to remember that because the col
ors selected do blend with the personal
ity they are successful. Study. there

Tasha Lama of Mongolia Buys an Aut,

GAN F'RANCISCO.-The Tasha Lama,
y emperor of Mongolia and next to
the head of the Buddhist church, has
never taken a bath In his life, but he
rides about the streets of Urga, on the
far side of the Cobb desert, in the I'M
est limousine that money can buy.
Ethan L. lie Munyon of the China
American Trading company at Tient-
sin, who delivered the limousine at
Urga, has arrived here on the Nippon
Mara.
The car was taken by rail to the
edge Of the Cobb desert. 1t made too
big a package to stow aboard a camel
cart, so lie Munyon filled up the gas
oline tank and made the limousine do
its own work for the rest of the trip.
This involved a journey Of ESQ miles
across the Cobb desert. AS the con-
tract required the cars delivery in
good condition, and as the roads were
rough, lie Munyon had to proceed with
caution. He made the journey in ten
days, which was three weeks faster
than the speediest camel train had
ever made it, so the natives say.
Although the lama owns two pal
aces-one for summer and the other
for winter-he lives in a tent in the
yard of his winter palace From the

Buddhist faith never takes a bath. He
