What Bird Is Thaf2

From The Point of View in Schribner's s.
 It is the fashion where I estivate to know the birds or else to pretend to- For the conscientious this is hard prescrip- ton which entails suffering. The anguish for example, that the true bird student, old in experience, feels over the hope lessness of every knowing the multitudin- ous warblers apart, though all out of proportion to the space occupied in thr universe by these tiny creatures whos flitteIinss are not even visible to the U tlained eye, is genuine It serves 10 Ns the Gght-minded not to take ornithclc seriously; to join the pretenders who d quire the art of jumping to conclusfc in social exchange with bird-lovers.' uEgodly result is that they are quite
 likely to be correct as the honest quirers.
 To pretend successfully is merely matter of keeping ones eyes and ea open and using common sense. Beg with robins-anything biggish hoppil about, with rather rude manners towal bird and man, is a robin.

To Thwart Pickpockets

from the Popular Science Monthly.
 From sad experience many a man has learned that placing his wallet In ever an inside pocket will not prevent it from being stolen. But if the wallet is at tached to the safety chain described in the Popular Science Monthly, a pick pocket could not remove it without talk ing the coat along. too!
 A fine steel chain connects the wallet with the coat pocket. When you pocket your wallet, this chain is wound up on a spring revolved drum in very thin cas- ing which is sewed to the bottom of the pocket. The chain which has it's free end secured to your pocketbook, is about a foot long, so that you can draw 1t out conveniently. When you return the wallet to your pocket the chain winds up auto matically. Should pickpocket attempt to rob you, the tug on the chain would betray him.

 THE BRITISH EMPIRE AT WAR" By Urban H. Broughton, M. P, London.
 In a very small book, but in very big way, Urban H. Broughton, M. P, the noted English statesman and writer, has given to the world a most enter taining and educational resume of 'gThe British Empire at War" which is well worth reading and placing in every li- brary, public or private.
 MT. Broughton, in a "foreword," so to speak, indicates a message to his Ameri- can friends under the title of '~To My Friends in the United States of America" In which he says:
 From 1887 to 1912 lived, worked, and was happy in your country, and acquired a profound admiration for the enterprise and energy of your people. My greatest treasure and my material possessions are of your country. Nevertheless, am first, last, and all the time'' an Englishman.
 Some of you have suggested that Great Britain was not doing her full share in the terrible catastrophe that has overtaken Europe That suggestion Is based on an illusion; and if I can help to dispel it by these brief notes, In which accuracy is the chief aim, I shall be rewarded.
 The good will of the people of your country has been of incalculable value to us and to our allies and continu- ance of that good will after the war will go far to establish worldwide and lasting peace"
 MT. Broughton writes most accurately and logically in his book, "The British Empire at War; about ''The Army, D ''The Navy" Air Service" Munitions" |" Attitude of the Country Finance" |" Trade" Mercantile Marine 'Politi- cal" and sums up the entire situation under the heading, 'Finis." by declaring:
 Great Britain was calm in the days of her severest trial. She is calm to- day. She knows that she has only to persevere together with her noble allies to attain complete victory. When that day arrives, she will have it in her power to exact retribution for the rape of Belgium, the massacres of Servia, Poland and Armenia, the deportations from Lille and the foul murders of Nurse Cavelle, Captain Fryatt and many civilian men, women and children. Great Britain will be just but memorable. The people will see to it that the great sac rifices that have been made by every family from the highest to the lowest have not been made in vain. In the meanwhile, as the duration of hostilities is unknown, Great Britain is making preparations for a long war, and Is not leaving to chance anything that human foresight can provide against, as she is daily alive to the tremendous issues at stake.'

A Modest. Nnte

From the Washington Star
 Reginald De Koven recently told story in praise of modesty.
 "A group of tourists" he said, visited in Bonn Beethoven's house. One of the tourists, a girl of 20 or so, sat down at Beethoven's piano and played the Moonlight Sonata none too well-Beethovens own work in his own room, on his own piano.
 When the girl had finished she arose and said to the caretaker:
 I suppose lots of famous musi clans have been here and played on this instrument?"
 Well, miss the caretaker an- swered gravely, Paderewski was here last year and his friends urged him to play but he shook his head and said:

"cHANGING MINDso

By St. John Ervine. The Macmillan
 company publishers. New York city
 H. G. Wells, in MT. Britling Sees It Through has pictured the tragedy of war as it falls upon people looking, as it were, the other way MT. Ervine in Changing Winds,'' shows the same tragic force falling upon four young men who are looking directly and in tently at life in all it's aspects and who accept war, all but one of them, almost blithely when it comes. The title is from the famous sonnet, The Dead'' by Rupert Brooke, to whose memory the book is dedicated. Roughly, one may say that its central theme is that "old men make war and leave young men to pay the price of it." The tale begins in Ulster and changes rapidly from Ulster to Dub lin, from Dublin to London. It includes an account of the Irish rebellion. The novel is the longest and most ambitious that MT. Ervine has yet written, and would seem destined to rank high among the best books about the war
 A thoughtful, absorbingly interesting novel well written, the interest sustained from beginning to end,'' is Changing Winds'

 By Harriet L. Keller, with colored and l24 halftones and line, drawings by Mary Keller Charles Scribner's Sons, publishers, New York city.
 Miss keeler's new book includes those flowers and herbaceous plants that bloom along northern roadsides in July and August. The plants described are those the wayfarer will most likely meet whether he goes on foot or by motor, the plants that are part and parcel of summer life that surround the vaca- tlonist at every turn. The book makes a most charming addition to the interest of motor trip or. in fact, to any excursion that takes one along the coun try roads.

THE AMERICAN AMBASSADOR"
 By Lawrence Byrne. Charles Scribner's
 Sons, publishers, New York city.
 This novel "The American Ambassa- dor" by Lawrence Byrne. is remarkable not only for its intrinsic qualities as a story of love and intrigue and of Amer acan character, but as timely presenta- ton of life in an American embassy is the work of an American diplomatist who for obvious reasons employs a nom de plume. It opens with the appoint ment of an American of character and ability but no diplomatic experience to the post of ambassador. Negotiations of great international importance imme diately and unexpectedly devolve upon him; and the main theme of the novel is his brave and vigorous fight against lnsidious influences. As picture of the workings of an American embassy in time of crisis 1t is powerful and fear less. As story of the strife and wit and will 1t is exciting and absorbing.

WILL TAKE UP ATHLETICS
Lawrence, Ripon, BeIoit and Carroll
to Resume intercollegiate Sports
During Coming School Year

Appleton - Lawrence, Ripon, Beloit
and Carroll win have intercollegiate
basketball and track wcI Turing the
coming school year This was decided
at a meeting of the representatives of
the four colleges. Dean Evans, chair
man of the athletic board of Lawrence
college, who represented the local in
stitution, stated that no provision was
agreed upon among the representa-
tives in regards to the athletics for
the 191S-1919 season.
Football was dispensed with by the
four colleges during the present sea-
son by common agreement. The Law
renee students circulated a petition
asking for intercollegiate football, but
the proposition was downed by Ripon
college.
AS the agreement entered upon did
not include the 19I8-1919 season, the
students at lawrence college are still
up in the air in regards to whether
or not intercollegiate football will be
allowed next season. The action of
the tour colleges was taken at the re-
quest of President Wilson and Secre-
tary of War Baker.
