HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb g. - No we'll grounded hope exists for a gen. eral hetterment of conditions in the coal industry, which is declared to have passed through the most pro- longer and decisive period of inac- tivity in it shistory. according to the report of Deputy Chief of the State Department of Mines Frank Hall, covering 1921 coal mining operation in Pennsylvania
 "The year of 1921 will probably stand as a record for long time to come of drastic curtailment in de- mand and exceptional difficulties ill wage adjustments" says MT. Hall. There is also an utter absence of any well-grounded hope for gen. eral betterment Of conditions in the near future. The extraordinary de- mands upon the trade during the war have left both the operator and the miner up in the air, and it is be- yond human ken to know when they will get back to practical, sensible state of mind.

UNCLAD IN WOODS

WILDERNESS IN FRANCE.
FIG LEAF IS BANNED.

PARASITIC club OF the unclad
ones has formed little hamlet in the
woods in the vicinity of Monica,
France. Even the fig leaf Of Adam
and Eve has been abandoned, and the
only time members may wear clothing
is at the regular afternoon conference
Of the club, but very few clothes are
allowed then.
Twenty-six couples have become
members of the club and are living in
the woods. The organization has a
president, secretary and treasurer, and
daily meetings are held. The object
is better health and better morals
through a return to simple life.
Some Live in Trees.
Some of the club members prefer to
live in huts built high in trees, while
others live on the ground in crude
homes. and still others inhabit caves.
Life in the woods will continue even
through the winter, when a large club
house will be built.
Once each week a member of the
colony is appointed to don all his
clothes and go to town for mail. He
also buys little luxuries in the shape
of food. During the rest of the time
the cave jewellers subsist on wild trult,
fish and animals.

Are Leg-Banding Birds to Learn
About Their Migratory Habits
By Robert H. Moulton.

The next time you go duck hunting
there is chance that you may bring
down a bird having affixed to one leg
an aluminium band with a number and
address on it. If you do, send the band,
or at least the number, to the Biologi-
cal Survey, Washington, d. c. In that
way you will contribute a bit, per-
haps an important bit, to the. govern
ment store of information on the mi
gratory habits of birds.
Bird-banding is recommended by
those in charge of the work as an avo-
cation that not only advances the
science of orthodoxy, but provides
anticipatory thrills like those of the
young woman clerk who slips a sur
reptitious note into box of socks
destined for an unknown buyer Rec
ords of the bureau of biological sur
vey show that in a remarkably large
number of instances the hopes of bird
banders have been realized by the
finding of their bands, sometimes in
far-distant places.
Perhaps the most notable case Of
the kind was the recovery of a band
placed on the leg of a common tern
by DR.. John c. Phillips, a noted
scientist-sportsman at Eastern Rock,
Muscongus Bay, Maine, on July 8,
1918. This tern was one of 100 banded
by Dr. Phillips.
In August, 1917, more than four
years from the banding, native of
Ikiribi, in South Nigeria, British West
Africa, found the dead bird floating
in a river. Apparently it had been dead
only a short while. The band with its
mysterious letters and figures on the
birds leg so excited the superstitious
awe of the native that he took it to a
missionary The missionary reported
the find to the New York bird-band-
ing society which had issued the tag,
and eventually the case found its way
into the government records.
1t was common knowledge already
that the tern was a cosmopolitan spe-
cies of bird, but the flight of DR.. Phil
lips tern gave the first positive proof
of the ability of the species to cross
the ocean. AS to the route taken by
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1922-10-03

the bird, the imagination has full play.
1t may have flown directly southeast
into Africa it may have crossed the
north Atlantic into Europe and work
ed its way south with its overseas
cousins, who breed in the British Isles
and northern Europe and winter along
the Mediterranean; it may have flown
to South America and crossed from
there; it may have migrated to Alaska
and crossed the Pacific into Asia by
way of the Aleutiain Islands. The sin
gle established fact that this North
American bird somehow, made its
way from Maine to Africa suggests to
scientists of the Biological Survey that
there is more intermingling of the
birds of the Old World and the New
World than was once believed to be
possible.
Altogether, the Us co-operators OF
the Biological Survey banded last sea-
son about 1000 waterfowl and 4,50O
nsectivorous birds, including white
throated sparrows, song sparroWs,
uncos, common terms, laughing gulls,
myrtle warblers and many other va
rieties, and it is confidently believed
that from these banded birds the sur
vey will eventually accumulate the
mass of data needed for the settlement
of a number of moot questions. Re-
suits obtained to date indicate to the
survey that the migrations Of birds are
too orderly to be matter of chance
that not only species, but individual
birds, follow the same routes year al
ter year.
Each of the bands supplied by the
Biological Survey carries number
and the address of the survey. The
operator forwards frequent records Of
his work; for instance, that on a Ger
tain day in September he banded a
mallard duck in Maine, using band
No. l4,5OO. A hunter in Missouri, say,
bags a duck with that number and
notifies the survey. The survey in turn
informs the operator, who is thus kept
in constant touch with the results OF
his experiments. The survey itself has
a complete card-system record OF all
banding operations.

about fifty men, were disarmed and
the prisoner was taken from them and

lynching took place.
Attempted to Burn Woman.
Johnson is known as Jim Drisdom,
and is the same negro who had been
rescued from mobs on two occasions,
it was stated.
Drisdom, a farm hand employed by
DrCpiDan+ Johnson county, farmer
attacked the daughter of his employer
while she was cutting yard brooms
near a branch last spring. In the
struggle the woman slashed the negro
across the face with butcher knife.
The assailant then poured gasoline
over the woman's clothing and set her
on fire. She jumped into the stream
nearby, however, and eXtinguished the
flames. The woman's little child, who
was with her, was not harmed.
