TO BREED GAME BIRDS
Association Buys 5,000-Acre
Preserve on Cape Cod.

Between five and six thousand acres OF
lakes and woodland near the town OF Ire
mont on Cape Cod. have been purchased
by tho American Game Protective and
Propagation Association and will be used
by the society for its eXperlments in breed
ing game birds. The park will be opened
in q few weeks and placed IN charge Of u
head gamekeeper and Il squad Of assist
ants
The breeding OF wild ducks, which are
now on the verge Of extinction. viii be the
initial work OF the association Nearly a
hundred ducks have been purchased. and
II Is estimated that thousands can be
raised this year. Other birds whose breed
ing will be attempted within the preserve
are quail, grouse and pheassnts.
The opening OF the big preserve IN Mas
sachusetts is In line with the plan which
the association has advocated, for several
years-that OF the establishment Of game
refugees in all parts OF the country. where
birds may be bred and protected. Not only
would this plan make the extinction Of the
birds an impossibility, but It would i'm
prove the shooting and create a steady
supply OF game.
The association has engaged an expert
gamekeeper 10 take charge Of the Massa-
chusetts preserve, which Is mostly level,
marshy country, with about thirty lakes
within the boundaries OF the tract. The
game raised will be distributed among
members of the association for stocking
purposes but it Is believed that the birds
will increase 80 rapidly that they will soon
overflow into the surrounding territory and
make the nearby section Of the Cape an
excellent hunting ground.

II was the second time that the Cardl-
nal had pontlicated since his elevation 10
the cardinalate. This fact together with
the bright weather OF yesterday and the
celebration Of Ireland's patron SAINT
birthday. brought out the great congrega-
tion.
The interior OF the church was lavshy
decorated and the clergy were rooed
corgeously. Two pages, I'm court costumes
Of velvet. attended the Cardinal A choir
NJ two hundred boys sang "A Hymn TO 81
Patrick" and after the gospel Father Ber-
nard Vaughn, 5. j., who has been giving a
series Of Lenten conferences at the ca
thedral. ascended the pulpit to continue MS
lectures Before he launched iorth INTO
his subject Father Vaughn approached the
Cardinals throne and made genuheXion
before his eminence. Then he kissed the
ring of the Cardinal and said:
MY Lord Cardinal. may l make bold TO
express to your eminence our delight at
seeing YOU in our midst once more-hoW
enchanted we are TO welcome you on thls
day? | know 1 express the sentiments OF
this vast audience in wishing many years
of life and work to your ennence.'
Father Vaughn then began his lecture
taking for his subject Socialism and the
Family" He spoke first of how the popes
for two thousand years had noted
the pulse Of humanity, and had spoken on
socialism recently through the mouths OF
Leo and Plus.
DO not hirt with any menace to your
home" said Father Vaughn. Home is
something more than the rooftree Of the
family circle Home takes the form OF the
pillars supporting the state. Home means
the cross still rising into the heavens. An
attack upon its structure means an at
tack upon the state, which looks to the
home for its stability and support
The speaker then read from the writings
of socialist authors, showing that their
views, as there written, were opposed 10
the teachings Of the Christian He devout-
" urged all the sons and daughters OF the
Church TO remain steadfast TO Christianity
and TO fight socialism 10 the end.
My implacable quarrel with socialism IS
this-that in it's recognized classics. in its
propaganda. in its press and in It's un-
guarded utterances It propounds and pro-
claims a gospel about welded and family
life altogether subversive Of the teaching
of Christianity" said Father Vaughn.
The preacher went on to say that indi-
vidual socialists would say that he has en-
tirely misrepresented their position with
regard TO marriage, its rights and its
duties. In answer TO that he would say
that he has drawn his remarks from their
own very highly indorsed socialistc
classics

CAN'T SWITCH THEIR RISKS
Fire Insurance Exchange Adopts
Rule Affecting the Brokers.

Because OF the complaints which have
been coming in for the last five years or
more. the New York Fire Insurance Ex-
change last week issued ruling which Will
prevent brokers from writing and cancel
ling lines Of insurance, meanwhile switch
ing from one company TO another, so that
the risk is often protected for from six
months 10 a year without the companies
ever receiving a cent as premium.
II has been estimated by one familiar
with the practices of some OF the small fry
among the insurance brokers that the COM
panies have been mulcted out Of thousands
OF dollars In insurance premiums which
were earned by this method OF passing the
risk on from one company TO another
The new rule issued for incorporation in
the insurance handbook is as follows
When q member has been obliged 10 can
eel a policy for non-payment OF premium
he shall furnish a statement 10 that eFeet
TO the manager, covering the name OF ulo
company, name ana locatl"h ol ss' I,sn'
amount. date OI commencement OF lhsuf'
ance, and the name of the broker.
As was explained by a prominent broker
yesterday: "Of course, every cancelied
policy does not necessarily mean that the
risk has been carried elsewhere. But the
new rule will keep tabs on policies written
and which at the expiration Of the period
for non-payment or shortly before are can
celled without payment Of the earned pre-
MUM. BY carefully watching the data
which must follow the exchange will be IN
a position to stop such practises either oy
brokers or on the part Of firms who believe
that they can get a couple of months IN
surance for nothing
The following officers were electeo 70
sunervise the exchange for the ensuing
wear: President. r. Emory Warfield; vice
president. /. p. Bayard; secretary and
treasurer. A. NJ Thorburn
