the cities are themselves calling for

In each city must be met the de-

STUDIED FLAMINGO AT HOME
how Famous Naturalist Got closeup"
View of Bird Remarkable for
Extreme Shyness.

A few years ago very great bird
colony of Florida flamingos In the mid
die of q swamp. He had queer
basketlike contrivance made and COW
cred it with palmetto leaves. While
the old birds were off feeding he
caused the device to be placed close
to the breeding grounds and crawled
into 1t. In this way ne succeeded in
obtaining much valuable information
concerning the birds.
He observed that when they came
flying home they came with a great
rushing of wings and that the hun
dreds of them hurting along through
the air was the most marvellous spec
tacle that could be imagined. One
very interesting feature observed was
that each female bird went straight to
her nest and settled down to covering
her eggs without the slightest confu-
sion. The males ambled about as
though trying to show off their lovely
plumage, for the flamingo is as vain as
peacock OF his scarlet jacket. Then
each went to his own little home and
standing gravely on one foot beside
his mate seemed to be discussing the
weather with her.
When one of these great birds took
nap he curled up his long neck Ike
a string with a double knot tied in it
and laid 1t back between his shoulders,

LOVE AND POETRY
Combination Long Prominent in
Japanese Wooing.
Custom of Utagaki First Mentioned in
Fifth Century, Though Believed
to Be Much Older-Devoted
to Verse Making.

One of the prettiest customs OF ola
Japan that has survived the new or
der is the Utagaki, or gathering or
japanese young men and women IN
flower season to compose odes to the
blossoms and to the moonbeams,
forming friendships that often endure
through life. 1t is first mentioned In
the time of Emperor Yuryaku in the
fifth century, although no doubt much
older.
The Utagaki, or primitive form of
wooing, according to which Utagaki
was most fashionable, took place at
Tsuwakinoichi in YamatO, in the Vi
cinity of Mount Utagaki. AT these
happy gatherings, If a man failed to
win the heart of the lady he was bent
on winning, the others made laugh
ing-stock of him and jeered him to In
dignation. Consequently, suitors were
persevering In order TO escape ridi-
cule.
AS the meeting came to order, If
there was order, each of the partici-
be composed. After the composition
was completed, the man recited his
achievement to the company, ana
lady was asked to recite hers; and so
it went, men and women reciting In
turn, until all had done.
Those whose verses pleased the au-
dience most were then commended
for their efforts. The man whose
verse won most approval was to have
the lady whose verse was deemed
best. At least 1t was easier for the
ladies to like the men who were most
expert in these odes, which created
Jealousy among those not so expert.
The upshot Of it all usually was that
all finally mated before the festival
was over.
This custom of Utagaki continued
popular for centuries. Competition in
poetry and love was considered wor'
thy of emulation. One does not won
der that it frequently led to war.
AS a rule the higher classes did not
allow their daughters to go from
home unattended; but the Utagaki
was always considered an exception
to the rule. Nor is it remarkable that
we often read in the literature of this
period such expressions as fell in love
at first sight" and so on. 1t was only
natural that in time, as civilization
advanced, the custom Of holding
Utagaki should fall into disuse.
There is belief in Japan that the
custom of holding these poetic love
meetings is as old as the first emperor.
1t is said that an incident in the life
of the imperial house gave rise to the
custom of Utagaki. In those far-off
days marriage, in 90 cases out of 100,
took place by the exchanging of odes,
which were expressions OF love-
