Revise State Constitution Instead OF
PATCHING It

Much can be said in favor of {
comprehensive, orderly revision O
the constitution of Wisconsin, az
| against a piece-meal process Of
amendment, which tends to produce ;
patchwork, said Prof. e. A. Gilmore
Of the University of Wisconsin law
school, in discussing the need of Re
viSing the state constitution
so far as the present constitution
defines the scope Of the Fundamental
political principles, rights and priyil
eyes, and rights Of persons and prop
erty it is doubtless in the main al.
expression of the prevailing sent
nent today.
$50 far as it deals with the form
of government, however, it is prob
ably not the best that could be de
tised if We We're beginning anew
with a free hand The present organ
lzation of town, county, and munich
pal government; the present system
OF courts; and the administrative
machinery could be much improved
and such changes could be more eff
fectively brought about in convention
than by amendment.
The amendments already made
and those pending, and the proposals
for amendments may indicate that
the constitution is sufficiently f1ex
ible, so that it has from time to time
adjusted itself and is adjusting itseij
to present conditions; and that if the
power is wisely used al
needed changes can be made as rap.
idly as is consistent with safety ant;
security.
"On the other hand, it may be
said that the changes of late years
and especially the recent proposals
manifest a growing. sentiment of the
need of a general revision

lous than the treatment of the mill
Operatives at Lawrence by the mill

tia. The manufacturers, who are
among the largest beneficiaries OF
the tariff law, employed the cheap
est and most ignorant labor that they
could find, paid wages far below {,
| standard of decent living for human
| beings, and then attempted to reduce
wages when working hours had been

IS plain that the mill owners, by then
own acts, have destroyed any faith

that protection primarily benefits the

successfully mount them. The forms
made to fit the bird skins are generally
OF excelsior, wound very tightly and
supported by wires in the legs and
neck. These wires are inserted in the
body in such a way that the position
of the bird may be changed even after
the skin has been sewed. 1t is this
BILE for the taxidermist, for 1t must be
handled quickly and carefully to pre-
vent the feathers dropping out. Mr..
Wood is well versed in bird lore and
anatomy, and nearly all Of his birds
express some characteristic feeli~- or
habit that makes them most lifelike

When just a small boy" said Mr..
Wood. Il had numerous pets. and bird
life was to me most interesting. My
heart was in natural science, and when
l was expected as a boy to learn har-
nesSmaking l hated it. Finally / was
allowed to enter the museum at
Rochester. and from then on taxidermy
and bird life have kept me interested
and constantly studying. AS In all
taxidermy, actual study from nature is
the most useful and necessary. Bird
life is world In itself. and the actual
reasoning powers and intelligence Of
birds are surprising.
Not long ago l spied a mother bird
and her young one beneath one Of the
trees here in the grounds The baby
hadn't learned to fly and had evidently
dropped from the tree quite little dis
tance from the trunk. The mother was
worried but seemed helpless to get the
young one nearer to the tree.
Finally she flew away, and when she re-

quently when mateial runs short. he Sc
lects the oldest among them and uses
the pliab,e substance again. After COM
beg inning the actual work on the animals
he submits the former to the heads of
the institution for criticism. Then, just
as an architect alters the plans of his
house, Mr.. Turner makes the required
changes in his group.
In mounting the animals the actual be-
ginning of the work would seem the least
attractive and the most impossible part
to the observer. For. in the case of a
lion or a fairly good-sized animal, the
first picture presented is that of an ami
NAL the body of which is made of huge
wooden cross beam, with only skull for
bones strengthened by iron bars. Around
this grotesque figure the taxidermist
works his clay until a body answering
all the necessary measurements has been
made. But 1t is not over this form that
the skin is stretched, for plaster paris is
then brought into use and a mold made
from the clay form. To remove this mold
1t is necessary to take ii off in sections,
and this means careful work.

little bird seemed to recognize the fact
that food was near and was eager to De

him the worm: instead she waited at a
point nearer the trunk of the tree. The

farther away. For some little time she
continued to lead the bird nearer the tree.

These sections are joined together and
the whole is supported only by light

great size manageable object to move.
Some idea of the amount of careful work
necessary in joining together the sections
is gained when one counts the sixty-One
plaster paris pieces that make up the
body Of a huge giraffe standing in Mr.
Turner's Workroom. The animal stands
nearly sixteen feet high and, though it's
form is complete, 1t is yet to be covered
with the skin.
This process is carried on in any one of
several ways particularly adapted to the
animal. The skin is kept moist and pill
able and is carefully worked over the
form and sewed. The hoofs and horns of
an animal are always classed as part of
the skin and are used in mounting, while
the bones and the lower part of the skull
are sent to the astrological division for
study purposes Delicate work Is neces-
sary in tinting the skin around the glass
eyes that must be inserted. and the taxi
dermist works an artist with his oils
The background or setting for a group Is
frequently designed by the taxidermist.
1T is often necessary in making a
successful group to place the animals in
various positions that portray anger or
defiance or depict some of their customs
and habits" said Mr.. Turner. For this
purpose an eye study Of animal life Is
perhaps the most useful. and uncon-

Mr. Wood claims that crows are the
brightest and most Intelligent of all birds,
and his opportunities to study them have
been numerous, for he has nearly always
had a pet crow. and in fact his Office at
present is the home of one Unlike MANY
naturalists Mr.. Wood declares that these
birds are equally as fond of duh objects
as bright ones, and his present pet finds
most of his pleasure in playing with
oyster shells. Certain colors frighten
them. and they are perhaps the most
cautious of all birds. The present Mr.
Crow was taken into captivity at such an
early stage that he can scarcely be said
to remember his wild brothers, but even
he puts his head on one side and listens
intently when Mr.. Wood gives the various
calls of the crows. Mr.. Wood is a ven-
triloquist and has little difficulty in call
Ing the birds to him.
