The Aigrette Horror"

The government is giving its at
tention to the protection of the
aigrette-bearing members of the heron
family. The horrors necessarily at
tending the collection of the exquisite
plumes have aroused bird-loyers to I'm
precedented activities. Some women
may not know it, but every aigrette
gathered for the Identification of their
headgear means the death of a brood
of little egrets from starvation. 1t
means, too, an exhibition of mother
love and sacrifice which is not sur
passed in the human family.
Most herons are colony-breeding

THE OPEN FORUM
ASKS LIGHTS FOR PARKS.
Harry Yerden Says They Are Dam
gerousIy Dark Now.

To the Editor: While the good folks are
holding sessions, saving Belmont" for
the Vice Presidents, organizing eugenies
clubs, and stunning our alleys, will
you please call the attention. through
your great family paper, OF our three
man Mayor-the Commissioners-to the
inadequacy of the lighting system OF some
of our parks?
The popular supposition is that parks
are intended for recreation purposes, but
is fast losing its popularity. because of
the somberness prevailing in these
breathing spots. The rich can enjoy the
roof garden, but the poor have to do the
best they can. Most people are afraid of
the dark, and who wants to sit in a
park where there is just light enough to
make the dark dangerous" It's offer
ing the footpad a bonus to work. A
stroll through the daytime cosy spots
Of most of our parks at night will con-
vince you that the undersigned is right
And. Mr.. Editor, won't you start some
thing to make our rest places a place of
safety for the women and children at
night-get more light for them9
