TIME stork is again lowering over the
primate house of the New York
Geological Park in the Bronx.
Suzette, the chimpanzee, the star OF the
collection. is again to become a mother. She
lies most OF the day on bed OF straw which
she has made for herself and is paying
much attention to visitors. In the adjoining
cage Bona, her mate, sits all day on guard
The big fellow seems to know what is going
to take place.
There is real love story between Bona
and Suzette. 1t has been in progress for
several years He guards over her and
watches for her signs OF pleasure and dis
tress faithfully and constantly More than
once the officials OF the park have been
warned that all was not well with Suzette by
the cries of Bona. and never yet has he de-
ceived them.
In the cage on the other side OF Bona lives

attack her and apparently accords her all the
respect and courtesy due her sex from the

does not show any affection for her, and re-
turns to his own cage after a time. clearly
indicating that she rather bores him. It's
altogether different with Suzette. He pets
her, places his long arms around her in an
embrace. and shamelessly informs the visi-
tors that she belongs to him.
Bona has three distinct cries which he
uses to attract attention. and each of them
has separate meaning He calls. he yells
and he screams.
The most memorable occasion upon which
he employed two OF these cries was last July,
when the baby chlmpanzee of Suzette and
Bona died. This baby was the first CHM
panzee ever born in captivity. 1t lived ten
days and died not through any neglect by
Suzette, who loved II and carried II with
her constantly, but because nature had
failed to supply the milk that Is necessary
for new born animals. When Suzette realized
that her baby was dead and had been taken
from her she was almost distracted and ran
screaming around the cage, pounding against
the floor and the walls, Bona heard her

let out scream on scream.

The word 'primate." by the way, is employed
because the word monkey" does not by any
means convey an idea of what the house con-
tains Monkeys are in the house, a most
amazing collection Of them, but in II also
are the anthropoid apes, the baboons. the
lemurs and the lemrroids. Under the apes
are classed the chimpanzees.
The collection OF baboons Is splendid and
they alone are worth an afternoon of study.
There are six different specimens OF baboons
in the primate house The long armed
baboon. the West African the Chacma and
the Hamadryas are fairly well known, hav-
ing been on exhibition for some time, but
there are two others which are particularly
interesting. These are the mandrill CPapio
SPHINX and the Rhodesian (P. rhodesiai).
This particular mandrill Is beautiful speci-
men, He has face of red. white and blue
and a bright yellow beard. Fierce looking
fangs add to the savage appearance OF
this beast, whose muscles play up and down
his arms as he moves. The bulletin OF the
society states that six years are required for
mandrills to reach maturity and of the
captured young only one out of six becomes
adult.
The Rhodesian baboon is n recently dis
covered animal The credit for the discovery
belongs to Director A. Haagner, OF the
National Geological Garden OF Pretoria, to
whom In 1918 was given the honor Of naming
this new baboon.
Some idea OF the size Of the collection in
The Bronx may be had from the latest re-
port which is now being complied The
census shows 500 mammals 2.422 birds and
465 reptiles. The species represented are
1876 mammals. 797 birds and s5 reptiles. In
other words. there are 1.07S different kinds

"The death OF the infant was reported to
me as / sat in my Office by Bona himself.
The frightful and long continued yells and
screams that issued from his outside cage,
and rang ont for half mile in every direc-
tion throughout the park. clearly indicated
an unusual provoking cause. Never before

wild animal After they had continued for

when by strategy Keepers Spicer and
Palmer succeeded in snatching the dead in

rage and protest were heard by Bona in his
outside cage. The fact that Suzette was in
real trouble excited him TO the utmost, and
bis rage knew no bounds.

And so Bona and Suzette have lived
through life and death together and he loves
her more for the experience. They are

expected to make his appearance during the

Davis the Second Man to Be Chief
Of Youngest Federal Department

The Department of Labor is the youngest
department OF the Government IL was
organized in 1918 and presided over during
the Wilson Administration by Secretary
William Il. Wilson. Secretary Davis, there
fore Is It's second head. There had been an
old Bureau OF Labor, but this incor-
porated with the. Department of Commerce
and the relations OF labor to the Govern
ment were then represented in the Cabinet
through the Department of Commerce and
Labor. When at the end of the Taft Admin
istraton Il was decided to give labor a seat
I'm the councils OF state the new Labor De-
partment was taken out of the Commerce
Department. Since which time several new
bureaus have been added to the duties of
the Labor portfolio.
As at present constituted the first obiga-
jtions of the Department of Labor are the
preservation Of amicable relations between
capital and labor and the preservation of
the interests of labor or laborers in indus
try. This is the work OF the conciliation
service. 1t was through this service with
the new Secretary acting as chief conci-
ator. that the packing interests and their
employees the Meat Butchers and Dressers
Union were recently brought together and a
meat shortage saved the country. This SER
vice will handle and adjust yearly between
six hundred and thousand industrial diff
ferences.

ally called means OF effecting settle-
ment.
The railroad controversy of 1916 is readily
recalled. In this threatened catastrophe
the Labor Department in few days had
effected terms OF mediation Only after somt
political wiseacres forced their views on the
President was it necessary for Mr.. Wilson
to throw the whole matter open again and
call for further arbitration between the rail-
roads and their employees.
second and not less important work OF
the Labor Department is the administration
of the immigration and naturalization laws.
With the Good gates of Europe pouring
their emgrants toward us this promises to
be not easy task in the next four years.
Without special preventive legislation II Is
expected immigration during the next twelve
months will be well over the million mark,
IL 1t does not reach two million souls. Recent
figures show immigrant arrivals to exceed
1000 day. The task Of keeping our immi-
grafton highways clear. Of distributing and
in the course OF time properly naturaizing
all of these anxious citizens will require
great patience and toll.
Because of this feature of it's duties the
Department of Labor is a nearly self-sup-
porting organization. Every emigrant who
enters America must pay a tax of So. Later
when he comes before court TO be natural
lied he must pay fee of 81 to s2 part of
which goes to the clerk of the court and the
remainder of which goes to the Labor De-
partment. 1t is out Of these funds even
tually that the passage of aliens deported
from this country for just cause Is paid.
During the next year 1t Is expected the fees
accumulated through these channels will
approach s15.OO0,0O0 and exceed by several
times the actual expenditures of the Depart
ment.
Next in impor tance in the duties of the
Department come the surveys of relations
of women and children in industry. In the
case Of the children it is required to investi
gate and report to Congress upon matters
relatingNt to the welfare of children and child
life in industry and among all classes Of our
people, especially investigating infant NOR
tality, the birth rate, orphanage, desertion,
Juvenile courts, dangerous occupations, ac-
cidents and diseases of child life. With re-
spect to women, it Is called upon to fomu
late standards and policies In industry to
improve their working conditions promote
their welfare. increase their efficiency and
advance their opportunity for profitable EN-
ployment.
