EXPLAINING SONGS OF BIRDS
Beautiful Notes of the Nightingale,
for Instance, Are Inspired by
Paternal Love.

It is generally assumed that bird
sings because he is happy, but sci
ence goes deeper for an explanation
of the why and wherefore of the
birds song. Natures optimistic joy
in constructive progress is expressed
in the singing of the male birds who
charm their mates to further their
wooing, and continue after eggs are
laid to encourage the ful1llment of
Matching
The song stops when the little birds
come out of the shell. The nightin-
gale, for weeks during the period of
nest-building and Matching, charms
his mate and human ears near him
with the beautiful music of his love
song. But as soon as the little night
ingales come from the eggs the song
changes to sort of cultural croak,
implying anxiety and sense of respon-
sibility.
If the nest and contents were de-
stroyed the nightingale would at once
resume his beautiful song to inspire
his mate to help him build another
nest and start all over again the low
ing work of being fruitful and multi
plying

"HoMING INSTINCT" IN BIRDS
Attachment to First Home Is Much
the Same as Is Evidenced
in Humanity.

The habit of birds in migrating
South when winter comes on is in
fiuenced by the need of finding a suf-
ficient supply of food AS food grows
scarce when winter approaches in the
farthest northern places where birds
live they naturally turn to the South,
where, their instinct tells them, food
will be plentiful The return of the
birds in the spring to their accustomed
haunts in the North is one of the evil
dences of their possession of an in
stinct which is also strong in man.
The environment in which bird or
human being is brought up generally
becomes a permanent part of its ma
ture Ornithologists have not yet
made it clear just what enables the
bird to find its way back and forth to
the same spot every year, and our
knowledge is confined to the fact of
what the "homing instinct" does.
After they mate and build their
first nest and bring up their first fam
lily, birds cherish fondness for that
spot much the same as the attach
ment that man feels for his early
home The spring migration of birds
is their joyful return home after
temporary sojourn abroad to secure
the means of livelihood.

SYSTEM IN THE HOME
EXCELLENT IDEA MUST NOT BE
CARRIED TO EXCESS.
Careful Preparation of Menu Is De.
sirable, But Like All Good Things
There Is Possibility of Its
Being OVerdone.

Carefully planning and writing out
menus at least three meals in advance,
and marketing for the same, is abso-
lutely essential in housekeeping eff

disposition.

dinner Now plan and write out on

and on another slip write the neces-
sary grocery order; at the same time
see if any of the staples, such as sugar,
tea or coffee, rice, etc., must be re-
plenished, and write these down also.
If you know exactly what is wanted
once or twice, or even three times a
week, this order can be telephoned; at
other times it is necessary to go to
market to compare foods and prices,
know values and become skillful in
marketing. Besides, it is great ad-
vantage to have personal acquaintance
with the butcher, the baker and the
candlestick maker"
