Faithful Mother Seal.

A sea-captain not long ago cap
tured a young seal, hoping to tame
and rear it on board his ship. He
placed it in a sack to secure it. but,
wide as the ocean was, and swiftly as
the ship sped on, the mother'was as
swift, and followed in search of her
young. When it was first caught, the
mother howled piteously, and the
baby" parked back its grief, but the
man was relentless, and coolly
watched the agonized mother follow
him till the ship reached the wharf
at Santa Barbara.
Here he thought his prize was safe,
for surely no seal would venture
there, and the ship was locked. Sud
denly the mother gave cry close to
the ship, and the little one, as If
obeying instructions, struggled, still
in the sack, to the edge of the deck,
and rolled itself overheard, The
mother was seen to seize the sack,
rip it open with her sharp teeth, and
ioyfuily claim her baby. She had
swum after it for eighty miles.-Oul

Ellsworth, Me-, Oct. l, 1923.
To the Editor of The American:
1t may interest the pupils in our
public schools, as well as adult stu
dents of American history, to learn
that the great Tallyrand. Minister of
France. came to the then District of
Maine in 1898 to visit General Knox
at Thomaston.
Accompanied by General Knox and
retinue, the party came overland to
Union River settlement. later named
Ellsworth. Arriving on the west
bank and finding no bridge, it being
low tide, they having sound horses
easily forded the river at a point
about where the new bridge is being
constructed and continued on their
way to Mt. Desert island.
Ellsworth, settled in 1862, sent
six soldiers to the War of the Revo-
luton, and is rich in historical as
sociations. My object in penning
this bit of local history is to arouse
interest in the youth of our city, that
they may, by increased study of or
early history, give proper reverence
to our forefathers, those hardy pio-
neers, who hewed their way through
the forests on the banks of Union
river one hundred and siXty-three
years ago.

WORLD BIRD PROTECTION.
League Formed to Protect Birds of
All Countries.

Although it has proven a difficult
matter to create political league of
nations, T. Gilbert Pearson, presi-
dent of the National Association of
Audubon Societies, has demonstrated
the possibility of creating a league
for the very useful purpose of pro-
tecting the wild birds of the world.
Leading scientific and conservation
societies in nine countries have now
organized and pledged to active en-
deavors for the protection of the
birds in their countries, and in aiding
similar movements in more be-
nighted regions.
This movement was launched at a
conference held in London iii June
last year. On invitation of Mr..
Pearson, delegates from several
countries met in the home Of Hon,
Reginald McKenna, and determined
that such action was necessary if
much of the valuable bird life is to
be saved from despoilation. Among
the very active members at this Goa
ference were Lord Edward Grey and
Lord Buxton, of England, =. G. Van
Tienhoven of Holland, and the emf
nent naturalist, M. Jean DelaCOur, of
France.
Mr.. Pearson, president of this in
ternatiOnal committee, who recently
returned from lecturing and or
ganizing tour through seven of the
countries in Europe, says: Europe
is looking to America for leadership
in some of the lines of endeavor in
which we as a nation have special
lied. There is no country in the
world that is so thoroughly organized
and has such advanced laws for bird
protection as the United States, and
many of our methods can be and
doubtless will be adopted to meet
European conditions.
Through southern. Europe es-
pecially, very little attention is paid
to bird protection. This may be
Illustrated by the fact that in all of
France in the year 1921, there were
only sixty convictions for violation
of the bird laws. During the same
period, in New York State alone
there were more than 1000. In
Hungary | was told that during the
past year, with all of the thousands
of bird-killers in the country, not one
had been prosecuted. In Italy | saw
nets, traps and various cages used to
catch small songbirds for food.
There is vast traffic in the bodies
of these little songsters in that cSH1-
try. In Rome l saw in cages small
birds whose eyes had been blinded by
red hot irons on the theory that in
their darkness they would sing bet
ter and thus prove more effective de-
coys in alluring other feathered
friends to destruction.
"Our international organization is
now in effective operation in the
United States, Canada, Australia,
Norway, England, Holland, LuXen-
burg, France and Italy. Other coun-
tries have recently been invited to
unite with the movement, and action
by them may be expected soon.
Members of the committee in the
different countries are formed into
national sections which deal
especially with bird protective
scope. Everywhere | went in Europe
scoops. Everywhere | went in Europe
our plan was received most
cordially"

Dear M. B. Friends:


Dear M. B. Friends;
If | were to select text from the
poem for this week, | should take
There are so many little homes,
Where small lamps shine at night,
I believe those little homes'-are
the hope of the nation. We read OF
the tragedies of the decentralization
of society, of the lowering of stand
ards of morality, and of the train of
evils which sometimes seems to be
sweeping over our country ana
others but wait-the light of little
homes shines out on this dark PIC
ture. The world outwardly may take
no note of them they are not
featured in the papers that herald
the unsavory doings which cause
sensation, but they are the beason
lights showing safe harbors. They
restore ones faith, that the times are
not so bad as represented; each one
may seem little thing but TO-
gether the little homes are an up
lifting force, holding society to
normal condition, and are an under
lying foundation on which to build
our hopes for the future.
There are children in these homes.
