Ambitious Birds.

Gagged chafinches are celebrated for
their eagerness to compete with one
another in singing. They deliver their
songs alternately until one is exhaust

excited do the birds become that it
occasionally happens that one of the
competitors drops down dead.

Issued to naval commanders has not

Whether this applies to freighters

the same effect.
The American government is now Off

No report on the sinking Of the
Arabic has yet been received; none OF
the submarines which might possibly
have been involved have yet returned

report may come any day. and may pos
sibly be delayed another fortnight-at
