EGG OF PHOENIX is FOUND
Product o. the Historic Funs-Whane
" Hello Bird Procured In China
llulI BY Naturalista

Naturalists doing field work in China
for American museums picked up an
egg which the natives declared was the
egg of the Phoenix-the Fung-Whang
Hobo bird. 1t has just been mounted
and placed on public view in the Mu-
scum Of Natural History in New York.
Examination and comparison by the
museum staff, says the Boston Trans
crlht, have resulted in the decision that
disregarding popular legend, the i'm
mense egg, 40 times the size of the egg
of the domesticated hen, Is that Of a
gigantic prehistoric ostrich. Two i'm
perfect eggs of this fossil ostrich are
in existence and are owned by mu-
seums in the United States, but this is
the only perfect one known-"perfect."
the museum announces, with the ex-
ception of a small hole through which
the original contents may have disap-
peared.''
Its discoverer was a peasant IN the
Province Of Honan, China, who one
day found it sticking in the bank Of
the Yellow river and kept it rs a
curiosity, treasured it as the egg Of
that legendary Phoenix, which is still
revered by designers Of Chinese decor
atoms. The fossil shell was filed with
water when it arrived at the museum
and was found to have a capacity of a
trifle more than two quarts. Two
quarts of albumen, yOlk and prOto-
plasnic n,aterial--say four pounds Of
observation-disclosures that the high
cost Of living was one Of the modern
things ancient China did not invent
No scientist has ever seen bone
or remnant Of the biped which laid
ovoids like this one from the mud Of
Yellow river. 1t may be imagined that
the travelling naturalists had some diff
ficulty in acquiring it for the Phoenix
to which it was locally attributed
stands in Chinese art and tradition as
the symbol of Immortality and resur-
rection. Farther west one of the le-
gends of the bird has been that every
500 years it flew out OF Arabia old and
decrepit to Holiopoli, and there on an
altar burned itself and rose from its
ashes young and beautiful once more
no bad symbol for the China of the
present hour.

The entire west side of the store is
taken up with handsome clothing cases

In the hidden recesses of Paradise

The entrance is through hole in the
wall in Sixth avenue, between Jef1ef.
son Market jail and Eleventh street.
recalls writer in the New York Mall.
In Paradise alley there is a row of
quaint dwellings that seem to slant In
outrageous fashion. In fact, everything
in Paradise alley is strange to the point
Of queerness. But once within the alley
you forget the world and its hustle.
You are in land far away.
Around the corner from Paradise al.
ley is Patchin place. If memory does
not serve Ill it was in this queer back
water spot that John Masefield ate and
slept and rocked the cradle Of a man
child In the days when he tended bar"
in New York town. A'queer lad was
John Mansfield. A thousand songs
struggled for birth in his brain. The
world knows many of these songs to.
day, for he ranks in the second flight
Of living poets. ....l
But when John Masefield "tended
bar in Greenwich village and ate and
slept at the, boss home in Patchin
place. the only part Of the public that
got the benefit Of his poems was the
boss baby, for Masefield, while he
waited for the boss wife to cook
meal or "set" the table, had to rock
the cradle and sing to keep the child
from raising the roof with his walls.
The babe never cried when John
Masefield sang. 1t is the testimony Of
that good wife Of the. boss that she
never could make head or tail out Of
the songs the queer youth sang-they
neither had rhyme, nor reason, nor
things that songs should have. They
were like chants, she says.
But the baby seemed to make them
out, even If his mother could not.
Never a wall came from him while
John Masetirlu sang.

tiful silk service flag was dedicated in
honor of the boys who were associat-

The flag was made by the members
of the Epw0rth League and was pre-
scented by their president, John Hels-
ley, who read the names and the pres
ent location of the boys in service
This was followed by very impress
i've sermon delivered by Rev. ]. L..

who heard him, and in which he voiced
the deep regard and affection In which
the boys are held by the members of
their church at home. .-.....
The flag bears nineteen stars, with
more to be added soon, and each one
is embroidered with the initials of the
