BUFFALO HERDS HAVE GROWN
Animals in Canadian Government Pro-
serves Must BE Killed to Prevent
: Evil Of Overcrowdlng.

Twenty-Five years ago the Canadian
government purchased q small herd
of buffalo and placed 1t In national
park at Banff. For several years the
herd was regarded merely as an OBJ
ject Of curiosity. Then a game pre-
serve was decided upon, and the herd,
together with other buffalo acquired
from a United States rancher, was
turned into the inclosure. The pre-
serve is located at Wainwright, Alta.
and extends over 1872 square miles Of
sandy prairie which was considered
unsuitable for agriculture. The buff
falo, TOO in number. thrived from the
start, and last spring the caretakers
counted 6,146 of the animals. AL
though the 1922 "crop" cannot be
counted until the bison are herded
into their winter quarters, It Is esti-
mated that there will be an addition
of at least 1000 calves. Besides this
herd at Wainwright, there are other
buffalo in Canada in sufficient num-
bers to bring the total up to approxi-
mately 1900 head, and the govern
ment Is preparing to kill about 1000
of them every year to prevent the
preserves from becoming overcrowd-

One afternoon I was invited to
bridge party. The woman who usually
takes care Of my son was Ill. I told
him that he would have to go to the
party with me. This displeased him,
because he had planned to play all
afternoon. Knowing how much he
likes angel-food cake, told him Mrs.
Blank was going to serve Ice cream
and angel-food cake. He at once
changed his mind about playing.
All went well until my son rambled
out into the kitchen. where he saw
Mrs. Blank taking two cakes out Of
the oven.
She said, frank, I'll bet you can't
guess what kind of cakes these are"

the Question, Are They, Really
Worth WhiIs7
The first time crossed the Atlantic
I had the good fortune to find myself
In good company. The passenger list
was comparatively small and the
weather was mild. So. by the time
the ship approached Liverpool. the
passengers were fairly well acquaint-
ed and the atmosphere was decidedly
genial. What interested me most
about the trip was the sadness re-
flected here and there during the last
two days, John d. Barry writes In
the Minneapolis Tribune.
"well, well never be together
again." said one passenger, and an
other said. II hate to leave all these
pleasant people"
Since that time, after voyages OF a
week or more, even of ships where
the passengers have been rather de-
tached, I've noticed q somewhat SIM
liar feeling.
Among college students it's well
known that during the last year OF
college there's pretty general SOFT
ening up. In the mems college It's
very marked. I suppose It's just as
marked in the women's colleges, per-
haps more so.
Men who had cherished grudges
against each other for months or
years and hadn't spoken would begin
TO speak again and would perhaps
become friends. Acquaintances that
had passed with slight nod would
grow more agreeable. Somehow AMI
mostly, chilliness, oil unpleasant be-
havior began to seem foolish. 1t be
came clear that In this association
there was something worth while,
something that hadn't been fully ap-
preciated before and that the thing
to do was to make the most of 1t
while It lasted.
