Birds and Animals Pretend
Violence in Play, but They
Stop Short in Exercising It.

Small birds chase each other about
In play, but perhaps the conduct Of
the crane and the trumpeter is the
most extraordinary. The latter stands
on one leg, hops about in the most &C.
centric manner and throws sOmer-
saults. Some call it ''the mad bird"
on account Of its singularities. Water
birds, such as ducks and geese, dive
after each other and clear the surface
Of the water with outstretched neck
and Tapping wings, throwing abundant
spray around.
Deer often engage in trial Of
strength by twisting their horns to-
gether and pushing for the mastery.
All animals pretending violence in
their play stop short of exercising it (;
the dog takes the greatest precaution
not to injure by his bite, and the
orangutang, in wrestling with his
keeper, pretends to throw him, and
makes feints of biting him. Some ami
mails carry out in their play SEM
blance of catching their prey; young
cats, for instance, leap after every
small and moving object, even to
leaves strewn blythe autumn wind.
They crouch and steal forward, ready
for the spring; with the body uuiver-
Ing and tail vibrating with emotion,
they bound on the moving leaf and
again spring forward to another.

More Than S. 900 Soldiers
Totally Blinded in France
As Result of World War

France has more than $1,000 men
who have been made totally blind In
battle. To care for these unfortunates
is one of the. most serious problems
in that country.
Since the war began Eugene Brieux
the French writer, has devoted nearly
all his time and energies to caring for
the blind soldiers sent back from the
trenches, and the following appeal In
their behalf is from his little paper,
LIE Journal des Blesses aux Yeux:
'Within a year, If we do not receive
sufficient aid. we shall have to cease
all our distributions of help. 1t Is
serious. We have sent monthly to 81
families of the blind assistance
amounting to from 20 to 40 francs.
1--WE have paid the cost of civilian
clothes for some of them, enabled q
particularly afflicted victim (both
blind and armless) to enjoy winter
season on the milder shores of the
Mediterranean sea. And now shall
have to cut out many stricken family
from our lists If more assistance In
funds be not forthcoming. And this at
Il time when the cost of living has ex-
ceeded all reasonable limits"
