A Word To Cruel Women

Editor Of The Post:
Oh woman, thy name is cruelty,
one is almost tempted to say at
sight of aigrettes borne proudly
aloft on the headgear of the young
girls and women Of our land,
But there is much cause for re-
.joicing for the practice is said to
be passing and too much praise can
not be given to the Audubon So
cieties throughout the country, to
President Wilson, to that arch-al-
TRUST, Col. Roosevelt, for their part
in the crusade against the whole
sale slaughter of innocent birds.
Indeed women would long ago have
refused to buy or wear aigrettes
had they known that the plumes
are torn from the live mother bird
in the nesting season, and the little
ones are thus left to starve. ----
One of the plume hunters Of "A
southern state writes:
"The natives do practically all
the hunting for feathers. | have
seen them pull the plumes from
the wounded birds, leaving them
crippled, to die of starvation, I'M
able to respond to the cries for food
of their young in the nests above.
have known these people to tie
and prop up wounded egrets on
the marsh where they would at
tract other birds flying by. These
decoys are kept in this position un-
til they die of their wounds, or
from the attacks of insects. | have
seen the terrible red ants actually
eating out the eyes of these manned
birds. No tender hearted woman
(above all, no mother) will consent
to wear aigrettes or certain furs
once she has learned of the un-
speakable horrors that attend their
procuring. Ostrich feathers are
humanely obtained and may be
worn with clear conscience. Laws
will no doubt be passed which will
forbid the sale of aigrettes-in the
meantime women with hearts in
side them will refuse to wear or
countenance the wearing Of aig-
rettes.

"As Ith ,rs See Us"

A certain professor in comment
ing on the weather and the uni
verse i'll general and the proper
method of regulation thereof, made
this striking observation-"I say,
now, old man, did you ever notice
that a Sussex Countian, however
much information he absorbs or
however much experience or travel
he enjoys, never realty broadens
out or is benefited thereby. He
never realty Greatly, mind you) ac-
quires those niceties Of speech or
elegance Of action required in the
gentleman of today
Honstly but shamefully, as an
old Sussex Countian, we were
stumped and we looked up Cor was
it merely at) to our guest and ad-
mitted his wisdom. Yet down in
our heart, we felt like saying that
the pure Anglo-Saxon as found
only in Sussex County can never
quite learn, nor does he so desire,
to speak real Partisan French. But
he s a man for a that.

Serving The Community

Among interesting experiments
along educational lines tried out in
American cities during the last de-
cade is the~pian tested in Newark,
\. j., of organizing city library,
which will provide magazines and
literature giving the experience Of
the civic organizations of the coun-
try. The plan is founded on the
idea that the world knows how to
run city, but no one man knows
it and no one city knows it,-that
somewhere in this or other lands,
some mayor, fire or police commits
sioner, health officer, school super
visor or what not is running his
particular department better than
it was ever done before, more cas-
lily, more cheaply, more agreeably
to the public. "The best in every
line is the motto Of the league.
g., The library building has been
open for public use every day in
eleven years save about 25. While
the building was thus open, the
people Of the city held in the spare
rooms, in eleven years, about 5000
meetings, by and for nearly TOO
different organizations, with a to-
tai attendance Of about 100000.
These meetings ranged from boys
debating clubs to the Board of
Trade, and covered such subjects
as city planning, charity, hospitals,
pedagogy, tuberculosis, philosophy,
languages and the worlds peace.
AS long as there was a room unus-
ed, any public, welfare educational
movement, not looking for money
profits to any individual, could find
free of charge for it's orderly meet
ings warm; well-lighted and
properly janitored room i'll the Ii
brary building.
Another phase of the work which
has proved very popular is the de-
partment which has supply of a
half million pictures to be loaned
to schools and organizations COW
ering that line Of study. Teachers
need pictures in this pictorial age
and they have only to visit the IL
brary to find 100000 arranged un-
der subjects like huge pictoria
dictionary, conveniently mounted
and displayed, besides 800 big col
ored pictures ready for decorating
the walls and to illustrate the sub
jects studied.
The smaller ones are borrowed
by tens of thousands and the larger
by scores. The development of
these plans has removed the idea
far beyond the experimental stage
and is suggestive Of lines Of civic
work that might be undertaken in
any community.

Of the gladstone Xmas Day.
Then his Father softly whispered
And called his soul away.
He was faithful husband,
A father kind and brave,
Duty was his only watchword
And that word led to the grave.
For thirty years and over
He had toiled upon the track,
And to the call Of duty
He had never turned his back.
Amid the Heavenly Portals,
Where bright robed angels sing,
He wears crown Of jewels
And sits beside his King.
But, oh, the hearts that mourn nm
On this dreary earth below,
The tears they shed in secret
Does but God in Heaven know.
In silent resignation
They WONDER as they pray,
Why he, their loving helpmate,
Was so quickly called away.
But in the misty future
When all secrets will be known,
They will join him with the angels,
Upon the heavenly throne.

ut is evident enough" said Game
Warden Charles J.. Davis to-day
that the present hunting season IS
70 be the best and most widely Ii
censed of many years.
IN any number of counties the sup
ply OF licenses sent out from head
quarters has proven TO be far short
Of requirements, and number Of
licenses have been delayed in issuing
because Of the fact that local war
dens did not have the necessary
blanks. | think there Ia not a county
IN the State to day, however. that Is
not able to take care Of all demands
made upon It.
There is, OF course, ono primary
reason why this is such q popular
season, and that Is that birds are,
really and truly. much more plenu-
full than formerly. The season has
been too dry for very good hunting
so far, but the birds are in the fields
nevertheless.
The reason why the total number
OF licenses has so greatly increased
over calculation is because so many
hunters who thought their hunting
days q, thing Of the past have taken
up the sport again with all of their
old time enthusiasm. They know Of
their own knowledge that conditions
are relatively what they were ten
years or so ago, and that has made
them all over again,
81 find, too, that the law Is
being administered most admirably
throughout the State, and | ascribe
much of this to the fact that the
hunters themselves are doing all they
can to make the law success and
a real protection, not only to the birds
but to The sport.
The department, on the whole, Is
highly Fratified at the way the hunt
ing season is opening, and we antici-
pate nothing but cooperation all tho
way along the line, 80 far as entorc-
ing the law IS concerned. 1t is a
good law, and the people favor It
hence there is not likely to be n very
great deal of real trouble In enforc-
Ing it I'm any season"
