BISHOP ATCHESONIS
 AFUNDAMENTALIST
Defends This Group in Church
 Fight at Bridgeport

Bridgeport, Dec. 19.-At a banquet held here last night to celebrate the 175th anniversary of the founding of St. Johns Episcopal parish the Right Rev. Edward Champion Acheson. bishop of Connecticut, defended the creed of the fundamentalists.
 He said that the Episcopal church today is holding no things of the past that are of no value. He said those things fell away naturally when their valued ceased. Declar- ing that the church had to adopt itself to the needs of the present days, he implied that the needs were the same as, when the church was found ed. We must surrender nothing that belongs to us by right" hes aid, we must be loyal to the present but to do so. must be loyal to the past Men talk today of brain capacity but the human intelligence has not pro- gressed one bit these three thousand years. They are talking nonsense. Some churches would dare tear down the things our ancestors built. We have a love of tradition and today was" After saying that the church was built on compromise he said that the Episcopal church would not compromise its principles today for it stood for the very things which were essential to this country today.
 Most of the clergy of the city were present at the banquet and listened to a plea for more co-opera- ton and unity among the different denominations made by Rev. William Horace Day. pastor of the United church here.

birds might be trapped and handled
by wholesale without injury to the
subjects and without causing them to
take fright. Types of traps employed
include a netdrop trap, in which the
net is supported by a trigger, and a
house trap of such size that a person
may enter. The house trap has a
vestibule with doors standing open
for the admission of the birds.
Afixing The Band
In banding, the bird may be held
firmly and quietly in the hand by
placing the lit~tle-fnger over the
throat and making use of the thumb
and f~orehnger to hold the leg for
banding; or the prisoner may be held
with the first and second fingers. al
lowing him to use the little-finger as
a perch. While the bird is held with
one hand, the free hand is employed
ip placing the band in position on
one of the creatures legs. with the
assistance of a small pair of pincers.
Enthusiasts have found that the
bird does not resent the temporary
captivity, but frequently fingers wher
the bander's hold has been released

A typical bird banding station Il
that on the estate of S. Prentiss Bald
win, at Thomasville, Georgia. No
only is this station especially com
pIete, but It is one of the oldest trap
ping stations in the United States. 1T
operations are under the management
of T. E. Musselman of Quincy, III.
who is an experienced bird bande
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-07-19

and a well-knowu friend of the birds.
Musselman handled 200 birds a day,
and in the single month of March
placed a thousand or more new
bands. In his daily grist he finds
many birds which have been at the
place from one to four years in the
past.
Accurate Measurements Are Possible
One of the things achieved by bird
banding is the study of living speci-
MEMS. This enables -ornithologists TO
take live measurements instead of
those which are affected by the
shrinkage of the skin in dead birds.
it also make 1t possible to compare
colors which have not been changed
by death. In addition to these things.
Of material Importance from the view
point of science, the practice makes
1t possible to learn details of the
daily life of the individual bird. thus
adding generously to the accuracy of
scientific knowledge.
AS a valuable aid to the protection
OF birds, as we'll as to science. bird
banding has the earnest approval of
such protective organizations as the
Audubon Societies. These agencies
have found that every bird bander be-
comes an advocate and practitioner
Of feeding and protecting the birds
which come within his territory.
Work Inspired BY Scientists
The interest shown by scientists in
the new method Of bird study is in
dicated by the activity OF these re-
search workers in promoting the Gus
tom of banding. In New England
the ornithologists have organized the
New England Bird Banding Associa.
ton, and within a year have induced
500 observers to take up the inter.
esting and important work. Similar
activity has manifested itself in thu
valleys of the Mississippi and it
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-07-19

tributaries through the promotion
of the Inland Bird Breeding Associa-
ton. Other parts Of the country have
also taken up the practice OF the
scientific sport.
Even the hunters have given their
support and participation to this
movement for the study OF birds and
their habits. Sportsmen have found
that banding tells them much hither-
to unknown as to the travels of ducks
ans other game fowl, and at hunting
clubs much interest is manifested in
cooperating with the bird banding
army.
As a matter Of necessity from the
scientific standpoint. and Of protec-
ton from the standpoint of the
friends of the birds. the practice OF
bird banding is under strict regula-
ton. Those who would take II up as
a mere pastime are not encouraged.
and children are also barred. The
work is carried on under authority
procured only from the United States
Biological Survey. Before becoming
a recognized bird bander a person
must have an official permit issued
by the Survey, backed up by permis-
sion issued by the State Game Conn
mission of the state in which he lives.
These permits are not to be obtained
for the asking. None will be issued
to a person less than eighteen years
of age, nor to any but those who give
satisfactory reference as to character
and responsibility. These precautions
are taken in order TO prevent people
from engaging in the work carelessly
and without due regard to the pro-
lection of the birds. With the grant
ing Of a permit a supply of bands is
furnished by the Biological Survey
without charge. This Government
agency also supplies the bird banders
with specifications for traps which
have proved satisfactory for the work.
It is stated on scientific authority
that perpetuation and protection of
native birds are greatly aided by
banding, and that a bird banding sta
ton becomes, IN fact, a bird sane
tuary.

ION my farm" says an Ohio bird
bander of eight years experience, II

which has made her home with us
for foul Each summer she
has two broods of young. and 1 have
the record, by Identifying number. of
each of her mates and of all of her

after a winters absence, and I look
eagerly each year to see If she and
some of her family come safely back,
after the long journey of the winter.
Herds Register" Every Year
"A brown thrasher used to register
with me every summer, and always
brought his young to my traps to be
registered as soon as they came off
the nest. Reports have reached me
that one Of the birds. banded on
June rs, 1919. was killed in the rabbit
trap of a woman in Alabama on March
%, 1922. Detailed records of this
character are by no means unusual"
When bird banding first became
recognized as worthy of scientific sup
port, it was Don discovered that wild
