TOOK AEROPLANE FOR ENEMY
French elrds Investigated Strange
Creature o. the Air and Appear
Satisfied

An extraordinary instance OF the IN
teIligence OF birds forms the subject
Of a letter received by the French
ministry OF agriculture from an IN
spector OF forests.
Some time ago the inspector 70
ceived complaints from Eportsmsn
that quail and partridges had become
scarce 81 certain districts On exam
lining the matter he found the birds
had deserted the regions in which
aerodomes had been installed. Seem
ingly they took the monoplsnes and
biplanes for enormous birds OF pey.
Finding after some time. however.
that their ranks were not thinned By
the strange creatures towering over
head, partridges and quail dispatched
scouts 20 the aerodomes 20 examine
the air craft at close quarters. The
result Of the Investigations OF these
feathered ENJOYS was evidently reas
suring, for the birds returned 70 their
former haunts and the preserves
around lie Mans and Rheims are now
as we'll stocked as formerly.
