Robins Not HeraIds of Spring.

"The sight of n robin does not
mean that spring has come" declares
Frank Smith, professor in the depart
ment of zoology at the University of
Illinois.
"As matter of fact, here IL CEN
trail Illinois we have robins which
stay with us all winter, getting their
food from berries. The majority OF
our robins winter in the southern par,
of the state, flying North with the
stimulation of warm wind Seeing
a flock Of robins shows that there has
been migration, but II does not indi-
cate an early or late spring, because
the robin has no way Of telling the
present or future weather conditions.
The presence of migratory birds from
farther South, as the gulf states indi-
Gates weather conditions there, but
not here. If there is n snowstorm
after the robins arrival, he will freeze
md strive. for he has not Wit enough
to fly South again." Professor Smith
concluded. So our theory Is blasted
robins are not harbingers of spring"

shot away, and one Of its wings wound

message, the destroyer was rushed at
full speed 10 the place indicated, and
within three-quarters Of an hour from
the time that the pigeon was sent of,
the officers and crew of the patrol were
picked up where they chung to the
wreckage.
Spy With Pigeons.
An American at Liege, In writing of
the German advance, told this Incl
dent:
"As ! returned TO the city, walking
along the River Mouse, l saw one who.
oblivious of war and its alarms, was
dangling his legs over the water and
peacefully fishing. The battle in the
air, which he must have witnessed,
had not moved him. The certainty that
the Germans were only few miles
away had not concerned him. He
smoked his pipe and placidly cast his
line. 1t was soothing to Overstrained
nerves TO see that chap, but it was
only few hours later that learned a
German spy had been arrested as he
posed as fisherman, with creel full
of carrier pigeons"
Another story reads:
I'm the cowl, habit and tonsure that
mark the monk young man told his
beads aboard the train bound for Ant
werp. And a woman, hardly more
than a girl, kept her eyes fastened on
the man of prayers. She studied on
the devotion with which his fingers
slipped from decade TO decade of the |
long, well-worn rosary that hung from !
the cincture about his waist But, al |
though his lips appeared to move in
humble supplication, the woman saw
that he had failed to kiss the cross. |
The lapse was significant
SPY the girl Kissed into the face |
of the alleged ascetic. In an instant |
two guards had seized the man and |
rushed him down the train corridor.
The woman examined the small wicker
basket behind in the seat. Lifting the
id, she found three pigeons"
Get German Pigeons.
A news dispatch briefly summarized
such find thus:
"A German trawler was captured by
1 British warship near the Orkney
Stands to the north of Scotland. She
s believed to have been engaged in
spying, as carrier pigeons We're found

Carrier pigeons tell headquarters Of
| the progress Of a battle. Here Is
/ typical report when the French army
/ fought along the AiSne:
1T Immediately appeared that the
destruction of the German defense
had been accomplished with as much
success as could be hoped for In so
difficult a country. By Z 80 a. m. we
learned by carrier pigeon and other
means that the Chateau de la Motto on
the French left near Allemant had
been carried, and that at the center
Malmaison Fort was taken. At $40
Allemant village had been occupied,
the prisoners numbered a thousand
and the French assault troops were al
vancing across the central plateau to-
ward VaudeSSOn and Mont Parnasse
quarry. At 80 the news was that
they were at the north of Hill 113, the
further spur of Malmaison plateau,
and in a quarry 90 yards west OF the
fort. BY 2:45 p, m. the villages OF
Chavignon and Vaudesson, with sew
eral neighboring Quarries lying on the
northern edge of the Aisne hills, had
been occupied. ChavignOn was the
furthest point contemplated in the
plan and represented an advance oil
one and one-half miles made in the
face of the best remaining troops OF
the German empire"
Aided by camoufage.
While many carrier pigeons changed |
their habits of Spiralir", finding 1t a |
dangerous practice and armed to ny |
back and then forward ut an altitude
comparatively low, camoufiage aldeu
birds considerably in getting back TO
their loft carrying with them messages
from troops in front. At Fort NauX'
in the battle of Verdun, the crown
princes army had a special group OF
men shooting down carrier pigeons as
they left the fort.
And another story of Verduns
was at Thiaumont, sixteen times
taken. lost and retaken. Wireless ana
telephones had long ceased TO exist
No human being could cross the ter

perate need of communicating with

The refugees in the Aegean islands
intend to return to Asia Minor as soon
as conditions permit. At present the
Greek government gives each refugee
six cents day.
The Red Cross is devoting much at
! tention TO the prevention of further
epidemics, such as the typhus scourge,
which took such heavy toll at Myth
lene.
Food is scanty and costly, and most
Of the refugees are underfed. even in
the large towns. Nearly all are in
rags. The hospitals are short of medi.
cines and other supplies, and have
been crowded by influenza cases.
Clothing, blankets and medicine are
needed on all the islands. Canned
meat for broth is wanted in the hos
pitfalls. American women run the
workshops where clothing is made on
the three islands of Mytilene, Chlos
and Samos.
