In the spring of 1895 Mr.. f. a.
McIlhenny, as an experiment, started
a small game refuge of his OWE
with six young egrets, or snowy
herons. a bird which at that time
had been almost eXterminated in
Louisiana. During the summer of
1911, or fifteen years later, the pond
was occupied by NOT less than 10000
pair of breeding herons and egrets,
of which about 500 were snowy
herons These nesting birds raised
approximately 60, ,000 young, and
there were fully 10, 600 old birds shat
did not nest, owing to all of the
available nesting places being occu-
pied.
Since 1911 this number has in
creased many fold. These hercHs
occupy the pond during the summer
season and migrate to South America
in the fall In the winter their place
is taken by thousands of ducks and
geese. who find here a safe and Sc
cure haven Of refuge free from all
persecution.
The success of this experiment led
Mr.. McIlhenny to go into the thing III
Grim earnest After long and strenu-
GUS efforts covering less chan twelve
years, Mr.. Mcllhenny, by interesting
others, has built up a projected area
of 217,232 acres.
Think of this Just pause a
minute and realize what one man has
done in the interest of American
game-nearly S2,O0O,00O worth OF
land. over 217,00Q acres, set aside
forever as a sanctuary where birds
may live and rest and breed free
| from persecution. -- Field anG

CLOCK FUND JUMPS
Subscriptions of Over $500 Past Week Brings
End in Sight---Let's Put it Over
Next Week

Well! Well! Well! Here goes
the clock fund. Over $3.50 added the
past week, and the total just over
$500. Now let's wind this clock
fund up the coming week, and get
the clock going. We ought to put
the fund well above the 81 900 mark
this week.
The past weeks receipts have been
swelled by liberal contributions from
many who had previously contri-
buted, when it was thought only
about 500 would be needed and only
81 subscriptions were solicited
These staunch friends of Ellsworth
deserve the gratitude of all
The past weeks contributions from
out-of-town friends continue to call
into review before us some whose
names were long prominently identi-
fed with the business and public
life of Ellsworth. One Of these is the
late James F. Davis, ex-mayor, ex-
man and esteemed citizen. Another
is the late William B. Campbell, Civil
war veteran and longtime register
of deeds, and still another is the late
A. A. Bartlett-better remembered
as he was known to all as Real"
Bartlett, also a former register of
deeds. later register of probate, and
long in business on Main street.
These are but few of those whose
names are recalled by this weeks
contributions, mentioned here be-
cause of their public service. A
glance down the list of this weeks
contributions brings in review many
more
Now, then, let's give this fund a
final boost over the line. The polls
may close" next week; if you haven't
given your dollar, do it now. Send
the money to The American office;
make checks payable to "City Clock
Fund"

Think of sWoOping through the air,
from Alpine crag to crag on real
scenic railway over two miles high!
This queerest Of engineering pro
iects. stranger than anything that
has been attempted before, not only
has proved feasible but part of the
line is now in operation. 1t was
under construction when the war
broke out. but the suspended work
has recommended, and, according to
press dispatches, the line soon Will
be open to tourists,
This unique railway, technically
known as a teleferique, will run from
Les Bessons in the ChamoniX valley,
France. up the Alguille du Midi, IL
COS feet high, one of the jagged,
precipitous needles in the Mont
Blanc range. Tourists, in so min
utes will be transported from sum
mer heat to the Arctic zone of Mont
Blanc, swooping safely through the
air while avalanches of snow and ice
crash harmlessly by, hundreds OF feet
beneath the suspended cars.
The idea behind this novel engl-
neering feat is to transport tourists
skyward to the land of eternal snow
and ice. Hundred of thousands OF
tourists have seen Mont Blanc from
below, but by means of this tele-
feriQue line many will be transport
ed safely and comfortably to a spot
where only the hardest of Alpinists
have ever ventured, and where Wis
I itors wishing to escape the heat OF
summer may indulge in all kinds OF

EASTER EGG HUNT IS
PLANNED FOR "Y" BOYS

The annual Easter egg hunt of the
Y. M. G. A. boys department will be
held Saturday morning. Boys Work
Secretary Fenby w. Scott has an
nounced. There will be candy EGGS.
varying in size from the popular
"elly beans" to fancy chocolate eggs
"as big as your head" according
to all reports coming from the Of
fee of the Boys Work Secretary
where the treasure hunt is being
mapped out.
Secretary Scott or his confidential
"lieutenants" will have charge of
hiding the treasures-pasteboard
eggs which are redeemabl for the
candy eggs when brought back to
the "Y.'
The treasure hunt will start st
$3.50 o'clock Saturday morning when
the Cadets (the youngest boys) will
be released and allowed to follow the
trail to the place where the treas
ure is hidden. Fifteen minutes later
the juniors will be permitted to
start out and at 10 o'clock the in
termediates will be "unleashed." b"
This handicapping makes it possible
for the younger boys to stand an
equal chance with the older fellows
in locating the treasure"
The Easter egg hunt is an annual
event among the "Y" boys and is
one of the most popular events of
the year.

FORDS ROBBERY
ARRESTS MADE
Two Held for Series of Thefts
Along New Brunswick
Avenue

FORDS, March 26:-Two young
men whose names could not be
learned are being held by the state
police in connection with several at
tempted robberies which occurred
early Friday morning along New
Brunswick avenue. State Police
Officer Juliano, who was detailed to
make the investigation, believes that
the two young men whom he found
hidden in the back of a truck that
stranded into ditch were the men
who made an attempt to rob the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Arnold Nom
nenberg. These men are alleged to
have gone then to the home of An
drew Nogradi but were frightened
away. Hearing a noise coming from
q window on the ground floor the
Nogradi's turned on the lights, but
the burglars had vanished.
Apparently the same men went to
the home of Charles Macy and after
gaining entrance through a front
window took about SIS out of a poe
textbook which they found on the
table. They overlooked valuable
silverware in the same room.
The men questioned by Officer
Juliano said that they passed New
Brunswick avenue in the truck, de-
claring that they were going to Phil
adelphia. The driver of the truck
told the police that he did not Know
of the presence of his two passen-
gers. According to Officer Juliano
one of the men who had about S12
in his possession had admitted rob-
bing a grocery store in Highland
Park. The man wore a soldiers uni
form.
