Mawkish Songs of Civil War.

Whatever may be the faults OF our
generation, we are not guilty of a
certain form of mawkishness that
flourished during the Civil war. 1t is
expressed in many of the songs that
were popular 60 years ago. Mother
Would Comfort Me - kiss Me, Moth
er, Ere I Die - who VIII Care for
Mother Now" ''Dear Mother, I've
Come Home TO DE- Mother, Dear,
Your Boy Is Wounded" and so on
through a long list. Mother love is
too beautiful a thing to be made ride
ulous by arrant sentimentality. The
reader who peruses such songs Of an
earlier generation must agree with
Artemus Ward who says of his con-
temporaries: "These song writers air
DOM the MOTHER bisiness rather too
muchly."

WASTING BRIGHT IDEAS.
Enough Brains to Solve Most of Our
Problems,

Enough Brains TO solve MOSG OF Our
Problems.
Enough brains exist in the world to
solve most of our problems. thinks Ed
win E. Slosson: writing in Science Serv-
ices Science News Bulletin (Washing-
toni. The trouble is that the power is
neglected or improperly applied, and
that our ideas are wasted. The rarest
and most valuable thing in the world,
writes DR.. Slosson, is that scintillating
but unpalpable excretiOn of the cerebral
cortex known as n bright idea" There
are in any generation only few ounces
or. at the most, pounds, of gray matter
sufficiently active to give off this bril-
liant emanation. He continues:
Yet a large part, and probably the
most valuable part of what is produced
by the activity of this thin, gray film
a time and in some cases forever through
the carelessness of contemporaries There
is no form of conservation that is so i'm
portant as the conservation of ideas.
That much-abused word 'conserva-
ton has two meanings, two opposite.
Conservation in some cases means using
and conservation in other cases means
not using. The legislator with his agate
bearing tongue will talk of the 'conserva-
ton of our coal and water-power' just
as though the two things were alike and
required the same treatment. 1t is just
painter to have his house painted ''the
color of snow and -, for the conser-
walton of coal means saving it for what
Is not used today Will be of use tomor-
row. The conservation of water-power,
on. the contrary, means using it, for what
is not used today will be lost forever
The greatest waste is our failure to
utilize, not our carelessness in methods
of utilization. We waste 80 per cent OF
our petroleum through irrational and
competitive drilling. We waste two
thirds of our coal before its energy gets
into the engine But we waste all of
the sunshine that falls upon our arid
region lands. and that means q greater
loss of energy than we get from all our
oil and coal. The richest region in the
United States is Death Valley, Cal
Even the green leaves are not able to
catch and incorporate more than one per
cent of the power of the sunshine that
falls upon them If someone would in
vent a solar engine with an efficiency of
even FIVE per cent it would add meal
culably to the wealth of the country
through the utilization of the wasted
sunbeams that fall upon our arid land.
Here is a priZeNa bigger than any
grasped by coal kings and oil magnates.
But nobody comes forward to claim it.
Yet very likely the knowledge necessary
to achieve this supreme triumph of chem
ical engineering is already in existence
somewhere.
IF it is not, there is certainly enough
brain-power in the world to solve the
problem if it were set to work at it. We
are all of US the poorer because of the
waste of ideas and inventive genius

BIRD sANcTUARIEs IN LONDON
Plots Set Apart for that Purpose II
Public Parks.

The committee on the establishment of
bird sanctuaries in the royal parks has
already added to the amenities of Lon
don. Early this spring small Enclosures
in Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens
were prepared by suitable fencing, a
small amount of planting and exclusion
of tidying gardeners.
The birds accepted the hospitality: no
fewer than 20 species, including willow
wrens. great and blue tits, red-breasts
and lesser whitethroats, spotted fly
catchers. carrion crows, tawny owls,
pheasants and moorhen, nested there this
year. 1t is proposed to extend these sue
cessful experiments.
In Hyde Park the bank near the frame
house and an Enclosure beside the maya
zine are TO be allowed to grow wild and
some planting of suitable shrubs is to
be carried out. The area on the east
side of the Long Water in Kensington
Gardens and n smaller Enclosure on the
west side are to be sanctuaries. The
