If you want to look at one of natures
oldest freaks in animal life go to the
American Museum of Natural History in
Central Park West and ask to be shown
the way to the "Flamingo Group"
There. in a large recess, at the corner of
two Railways, Mr.. Frank NJ, Chapman
has reproduced IN the most realistic fash
ion a scene in the Bahama Islands which
Is so strange that you might imagine
that II was a view encountered, some
where in his wanderlngs by Sindbad the
Sailor. but not a part of the wide-awake
world
1t is a vast city of what. in spite of
their outlandish form and attitudes, you
recognize as birds whose legs are like
stills, whose necks are like rubber 81
phons, whose beaks are like nothing in
the world and whose bodies flame with
amazing color. a light vermilion, varied
with harmonious tints Away before
you, apparently for a mile, the eXtraor-
binary red spectacle stretches, down TO
the edge of a bay, or lagoon, beyond
which runs long. curved coast. backed
behind with nodding palms. and a mass
Of tropical vegetation. High in the air
mile-long line Of flanningoes in flight
form a chain of great triangles traced
against the sky, after the geometrical
habit OF those queer birds. The realism
is astonishing. You have TO search care
fnlly before you can trace the shadowy
lines where the modelled foreground, with
its set figures blends into the painted
background, and produces an illusion Of
profound perspective. which ought TO
teach you never to believe your eyes I'M
less their evidence is corroborated.
No doubt a flamingo does not seem
to itself, or to it's fellow creatures. TO be
a freak OF a joke. It has a perfectly
natural feeling. II II could sees its enor-

on two, and sometimes unrolling its neck
and letting its head down four or five
feet, to give something TO the baby, or
to gobble something from the ground,

BY careful observation naturalists are
usually able to discern the reasons why
nature has given such extraordinary and
fantastic forms to some OF It's creatures.

the birds get that Euclidian bent? OF

almost the only graceful thing about the

college there would have been no argyll
ing on the subject. Tho boy would have
gotten 1t. But the world has come to see
now that a woman has quite as much
need Of an education as a man has, and
that daughter is even quite as likely
to have a career as son is. Therefore,
the question of sex must be eliminated
in deciding the matter.
1t seems to me that the answer to this
conundrum of whether the boy or the girl
shall be given the college education is
very simple. 1t is to give the one who
has the most definite ambition the edu-
cation that will help him or her to best
realize that ambition.
Also the ChiId's temperament must be
taken into consideration. There are
plenty of children who have a head full
of good. hard. horse sense, but who lack

make scholars out of them than you can

OF parents I'm meager circumstances slav-

every comfort, in order to send boys and

All that these boys and girls ever
bring home with them from college are a
college yell. sorority pin. swelled heads,
and the habit of Ioafing. A tragic price
has bean paid for such junk and it's a
pity that parental affection prevents a

Bogie's Team Wins

DR.. LETTERS Know Nothings and
Dave Bogie's Biscuit Shooters, two
rival grand and nollo whist clubs at
Glenwood, clashed few nights ago
and Mr.. Bogie's whist friends cleaned
up the doctor and his crew with 153
points to spare. Thirteen tables were
played and the best the Know Nothings
could do was to capture one table and
tie at another. The Bogie team was
about the same lineup that received
a walloping in this city some time
ago.
Ilenwood claims distinction for hav-
ing a dozen or more of the best whist
authorities in the state. The Bogie
men are the monarchs. Following
their defeat here about six weeks
ago they began laying plans to re-
trieve their laurels and the game with
the "know nothings" was arranged.
The victory leads Morris to the con-
clusion that challenge is soon due
from Glenwood and they are looking
forward to the trip with keen delight.
The Glen wood boys are capital enter
tainers az we'll as good whist players.
