Clark's ''Giftt' to the Nation
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

TT was 1856 years ago-February
5, 1719-that the indomitable
Virginian, George Rogers
Clark, started out on his ever
memorable march for "Old Vim
cennes"-the terrible march that
ended in the victory that gave US
an empire larger than that of the
Republic of France or the Ger
man Empire.
on all the earth there is no
finer region than that once known
as the illinois Country" or the
North West" With its splen-
did rivers and fertile prairies it is
to-day the pride of our country;
as we'll it may be, for it is the
seat of a progressive population
reaching up into the millions, with
a wealth that runs UP into the
billions, while, young as it is, 1t
is able to point TO its "hustling'
metropolis and say: There is the
second city in the United States
of America. and the fourth in the
whole world"
All of which was the gift of

ruptihle patriot. who has been so

poorly remembered that his rest
ing place is unknown to the great
majority of his countrymen.
Clark was as far seeing in
statesmaRship as he was ready in
warfare, and conceiving the idea
of winning for his country the
great region north of the Ohio, he
went to work with the energy and
promptness that always charac-
terized him, to make his idea
good.
Laying the matter before Pat
rick Henry, Thomas jefferson,
James Madison and other rromi-
nent Virginians, and gaining their
hearty approval, Clark raised
little army of some $50 men and
resolutely set out on his epoch
making expedition.
When the Commissioners Of
Paris met in 1882 to settle the
terms of peace between the United
States and Great Britain, the
value OF Clark's work doomed

The Terrible Slaughter Of
Birds Increases Every
Year.

The resolutions of the confer
ence concern the protection of all
kinds of wild life, including plants
as we'll as animals, and savage
races of men are not excluded
from its sympathetic good will,
But a particular effort was
made to throw a shield over the
birds. How necessary such pro-
lection has become is indicated
by the terrible slaughter of all
winged creatures that goes on
every year with increasing reck-
lessness. I am writing this from
france, where the "chasse''-that
is, the hunting season-has been
just closed by law, only to re-
open next year.
Now, according to my observa-
tons, the "chasse" usually means
little else than bird killing.
Bears, deer and wild rabbits still
exist in certain large forest tracts
and on private estates kept out
of cultivation for the sake of fur
nishing sport to their proprietors
and their fashionable friends, but
the average bourgeois" or plain
citizen, who in imitation of the
mobiles" puts on mis- shining
leather hunting coat, his yellow
leather leggings and his glazed
hunting cap. and jauntiIy tucks
his double barreled gun under his
arm, to the gaping admiration of
his less prosperous, but more use
fully occupied neighbors, seldom
finds anything to exercise his
craftsmanship upon other than
the birds of the fields and hedges,
many Of which are either native
songsters or passengers from
more northern chimes trustfully
making their way sunward for the

he slaughtered hundreds Of birds.
1t is no excuse that he eats some
of them, for it takes more than
his table can consume, and I

that it is a greater pleasure TO

Writes on
White Man Is Destroyer
of Creation
"The Charge Is One of Heaviest of M 81 "a sAsH
Civilized Animals Burdens" Ac- - If Is III
cording to Speaker at the Bene
Conference, and There Are Many B
Facts to Bear Him Out. So
By GARRETT P. SERVISS

~ AOENNAl u NAiC
N spirit of our times is the
recent International con-
. ference held at Berne, Switzer-
land, to consider what should be
done in order to preserve the
wild races Of the globe from the
murderous propensities of the
only self styled civilized animal
which at present dwells upon its
surface.
One branding sentence uttered
by Paul Sarasin at that confer
ence smarts and stings in the
readers conscience.
1T is only too true" said Mr..
Sarasin, that the white man is
the great DESTROYER of crea-
ton! He is the kill-joy in the
paradise of the earth, and wher-
ever he goes his path is marked
by epidemics, poison, devasta-
ton, blood and tears"
The civilized white man not
only kills lower animals for the
pleasure of seeing them fall and
die, but, directly or indirectly,
swiftly or slowly, he kills all rep
resentatiVes of his own kind
whose ways of life are less arti-
fetal than his own. He sacri-
fees every creature to his two
great gods-machinery and lux
ury.
Fortunately there is a leaven of
Righteousness in his composition,
the working of which is shown by
the Berne conference.
