The Burgess Bird Book
DR.. Hornaday Finds the New Volume
Best Work of Kind for Children

Bedtime Stories" and it represents
hp a~tho~ % his hest AS a chi dren's
book of birds, it is a stately volume,
and it will last "Anxious Mother
through many long day. Fifty eight
species of birds are so thoroughly y
treated that each of them receives the
honor of colored picture by Fuertes,
but scores OF other species appear in
dependcntly
only a fine array Of the most interest
ing and beautiful song birds, but also
hawks, owls, eagles, sw"lows, the
ruffed grouse, quail. woodcock, king
fisher, heron, and the tree protectors
generally. The story covers home life,
food, nests and eggs, enemies and mi
grations
The bird-klling cat is touched. bu,
we very much wish that this awf II
Strengthening Of yonng robins on the
avn, and household birds, had been
treated more thoroughly ard graph
icaly. Children need 70 be taught
to suppress surplus cats, because of
the damage they DO and the pain TO
childhood that these bird killers in
fict.
Every page teens with interesting
facts in bird lore, 80 deftly.ins in
the story that their presence there is
JOY. There is no formal descriptive
matter. and no fine-type text of any
kind. The book is q series of stories
all told by the birds themselves with
the assistance of Peter Rabbit, Johnny
Chuck, Striped Chipmunk, and the few
other old fourfooted favorites The
vivacity of it all is irresistible, and
the child that cannot be lurcd into
birdland by this book "is fit for trea-
son, stratagems and spoils."
The tifty-eight illustrations by Fuer-
'es, all in color, add vastly to the
beauty and the permanent value of the
volume. With one exception only they
arc delightful and correct, and children
viii revel in them. Why should Mr.
Fucrtes give clearance papers to pur-
nle grackle with q bright indigo blue
throat, sea-green upper neck, back
md wings Of the color Of milk choco-
late, and tail of lilac unlike the real
thing? We have seen about 10000
purple grackles, at from two feet up
to two hundred, but never have we
seen one with colors even remotely re-
scmbling this astonishing scheme. AS
seen by children the live bird looks
black, with irdescent purple, high
lights on it's head and neck.
If there is anything in Mr. Burgess's 8
text that merits CRITICISM. we have
failed to find it. The book is distinct
triumph, in text and in pictures. 1t
rings true, and it is by far the best
bird book for children that we ever
have. seen. In fact, it is the very book
that anxious Mother" the children
and the booksellers have al been
awaiting, for twenty years or more.

For number Of years parents have
been as|ing me. "What is the best book
about birds for little children ." ANd
that question has caused me much
trouh'e. Now. the "Rur~ess Bird Book
for Children" is the answer.
ANY man who can find his way over
legitimate roads into the hearts of a
million children is q genius. If he
lirht and permanent value, he is ben
efactor. Thornton w. Burgess is both
those thincs. We have studied his case.
Nine months ago the Permanent Wild
Life Protection Fund pinned upon him
its gold media FOR distinguished serv-
ices to wild life, in recognition of the
value Of his work in carrying messages
of true and wholesome wild life lore
and protection to millions OF America
boys and girls.
The Burgess Bird Book for Chill
tiful and true; it is to a high degree
entertaining and beneficial to the
childs mind and morals; and what
more can we ask?
The time was when we mildly re-
scnted Mr.. Fox, Mr.. Bear and the
other animal minister's" Of story books.
But Burgess has changed all that. The
personalities OF Peter Rabbit, Sam
my Jay, Bob White and the others
are of touchable nearness, and as per
scnal friends they are irresistible
That is the secret Of the unparalleled
success of Mr.. Burgess as an enter
tainer of chi dren. BY nature himself
ae sunny, companonab and logical as
the day is long, the cheerful good fell
lowship of his views Of wild life. and
his charming manner of recital, render
him irresistible. If we add to this the
perfection of the moral tone of his
stories, his just treatment Of all wild
cree lures end his ems. bic treatment
of the principle of legitimate hunting
sport his great success is quite under
standable. We are glad that he has
written $500 "Bedtimc Stories" and
that he has thirty-one books in circu-
latlon among young people.
The new bird book is it's authors
masterpiece. OF course it is written in
the personal narrative style Of the

The Veil on Chinatown

OTHERS. by Achmed Abduiiah PUB
hshed by G. L. lutntm's Sons
With none of the hysterical effort
an Occidental makes to c-tch the elu-
sive spirit of the transplanted Oriental,
Achmed Abdullah pushes open one door
after another in New York Chinatown
and shows the inhabitants to be people
who act according to Il code-simpe
and direct, if somewhat different from
the dic~ates of the East
AbduIlah merely sets down scene
after scene, as enacted by the people
invo we'd. There is no comment. no
attempted dovetailing of circumstances
to hercdity, environment or contact.
Each .ory in the collection of seven
is tragedy, poignant and intense,
written with consummate skill that
reflects no part of the author only
throws swift light on a bit of life
and leaves the reader rigid, tense.
When, in few rare instances, the one
who turns the pages seems t. calon the
eye OF the author, his expression is
inscrutable, Indifferent.

touch, the same appreciation of beauty

1t is. to our mind, one of the best

The outstanding characteristics of

all have the recommendation of sim

in the following tribute, written in
memory Of the authors intimate friend,
Joyce Kilmer:
Ye came, the Splendid Stranger. with sur
And walked among us for certain
while,
And there was magic in his glowing eyes
And there was healing In his slow,
shrewd smile
Yet though another quest he follows after
We shall not mourn in this dim light
For throuDN the. dark there blows I'M
And rilthful music from tho fields OF
dawn.

introducing a good deal of rather OBJ
