in their tropical winter home. gradually
worked northward as the retreat of the
ice made habitable vast reaches of virgin
country. But the winter abiding place
was still their home, and to this they re-
turned as soon-as the breeding season
was over"
Either of these two theories seems to
account for the mere periodicity Of this
remarkable movement. To 1t we may add
another--and related-explanation that
the birds really follow the movement of
the sun. There is, for example, the bobo-
link, which passes our winter months on
the pampas of southern Brazil, evidently
deciding from the. position of the sun
that the conditions are about right to
produce his favorite food supply In the
far away Northern meadows, and there
upon setting out on his long journey
thither, probably in April. BY May he is
in this latitude and is making the
meadows ring with his crazy music box
altogether the jolliest vocal performance
In nature hereabout. Il sometimes think
that he is trying to say something which
will sound as his Latin name looks in
type-Dolychony orySiUorus). And
probably so It is. more or less, with the
other birds. The sun is their clock and
their calendar.
These explanations account In part for
the sometimes unreasonable arrival of the
birds. Doubtless some make short south
ern migrations, which carry them only
over the northern edge of the southland,
where they linger near the margin of the
warmer zone. The effects of few mild
spring days in the northern zone are felt
in this border region and doubtless serve
to start these migrants northwArd, with
the result that they arrive here before
winters grip'is fairly broken. The plight
of these overambitious birds may become
a sad one. Indeed, this last chapter of
winter, IL 1t develops into real cold, may
cause the death of many of these pre-.
mature migrants. who may find them.

much nearer to the truth than the popular
mind has always realized.
Out of the S2.75 each citizen pays on
each 500 that he is taxed the interest

are taken care of; besides, that small
amount is shared in proportion among
the eighteen or more appropriations the
budget demands each year.
Out of it the city pays as much for
maintenance and law and order as
some nations pay for all national pur-
poses. and the most STARTLING phase
of the city's increasing population
is its foreign born citizenship. II
every citizen whose parents were born In
America were to leave New York it's

The number OF immigrants and their chill
dren resident in New York is almost equal
to the combined population of Paris and
Philadelphia, and each one has a s2,750

a $500 ownership in city owned property

Many persons suppose that summer is
the proper time in which to pursue bird
study. That is a great mistake for sew.
eral vital reasons well known to the ex-
perienced bird observer. To begin with,
during the later summer months many of
the birds are molting, more or less quiet
and inactive, and generally unlike them
selves. AS a matter of fact the molting
makes some of them practically unrecog-
nizable to the Impractical eye.
Again, by the middle OF June the foliage
is so dense that certain Identification
especially of the small and elusive tree
haunting species like the warblers--be.
comes very difficult, sometimes almost
impossible. Again the mere number Of
different species frequently bewilders or
even discourages the beginner. Still more
confusing to the unframed ear is the
medley of voices (single notes, duplex
calls and more or less varied and elab.
crate songs), all inextricably mingled
in June, especially, when the birds are
mated and In full voice.
In the spring the beginner has
fewer of these difficulties with which to
contend. The trees are mostly bare; there
are rarely more than half dozen species
within sight or hearing at the same time
and these are comparatively quiet. In
short, most of the birds, from the com.
paratively large to the very small, can be
plainly seen or heard and narrowly OBJ
served. For these reasons the spring

Of all times for the beginning of bird
study.

OF civic life are keener intelligence and

and protects the city from the encroach-

The duty of the citizen to his church

a matter best left to individual prefer

tory birds which have been wintering in
the Soutr land-from our Southern States
to as far south as Argentina. or even fur
ther This regular annual hegira is easily
one of the most remarkable of natural
phenomena and one which never loses its
interest to observers of birds and nature
generally.
Two different theories of the origin of
this movement are offered. The more
commonly accepted one explains that~the
region now known as the United States
and Canada swarmed with bird life up to
about the beginning of the Glacial Period
some $4,000 years ago. The southwark
advance of the great ice cap which
marked the beginning of that era made
the northern half of this continent unin-
babitable for birds. chiefly because 1t de
stroyed their food supply. Biologists tell
us that this advance was gradual, but
fiuctuating, the fee sheet approaching
and then receding. The birds natural
love of the regions which had been their
home caused them to follow these move
ments and thus the migratory habit was
formed
Meanwhile these journeys had become
longer and longer, until at the height of
the Glacial Period bird life had been
forced southwark to the latitude of Cen.
trail or even South America. But when
the ice cap finally retreated to the north
ward the birds followed its southern line,
meanwhile establishing the present
greatly diversified migration routes.
The other theory holds that the birds
natural home is In the southern countries
According to the late Wells w. Cooke,
formerly Of the United States Biological
Survey, "all bird life tends by overproduc-
tion to overcrowding, and at the end Of
the Glacial Period the birds, seeking in

main comparatively inactive after the ex-
ertion he has been through. He is living
like a noble of the Renaissance in his
court, spending generously on every oc-
casion. And he boasts of never having
kept accounts.
Every day brings innumerable invita-
tions from all over the world, offers
from editors, kilograms from American
newspapers, calls from dignitaries, and
women-women in vast quantities, all
obsessed with the desire to see him.

that is to- say, dictionaries and reports of
all kinds and in every tongue, for Dan
