Divorce in Rird[and

A blow has been struck at the be-
lief that birds choose their mates for
life and are free from the evils of di-
vorce by a ten7years' study of bird
habits.
The birds that were observed were
household wrens, which usually raise
two broods of young birds each year.
Instead of the bird family persisting
from year to year, or even through a
single season, the parent birds were
found to change mates between the
two broods of one year.
The, mating lasts only during the
time the young birds are helpless.
After that each parent feels quite free
to make whatever new arrangement
may seem desirable.

Emerson each was aware of the

for the first edition of Emerson's that
was published in England. After try

wrote to Emerson:

NO PERSONAL FEAR
IN MANGIN'S NATURE
French General Ready to
Accept Any Risk.

With view to raising the army
morale the late Gen. Charles Mangin
was constantly pushing his headquar-
tiers forward on line with the d.
visional commands The Germans had
hardly left Scissors before he moved
to chateau in the suburbs within
range Of the enemy's guns. They could
have blown the place to pieces In 20
minutes.
The chief Of staff and the heads Of
the bureaus protested that it was no
place for clerks and typists, much less
officers at desks. But they wasted
their breath. Mangin said that 1t was
best to be there and that nothing un-
pleasant would happen. One morning
a nine-inch shell dropped near the
gate, but no one was hurt.
Again as the Germans left Laon he
moved into house at the foot Of the
hill under the town. The countryside
was planted with mines whose fuses
were arranged for delayed explosions.
For nearly twoSweeks these blew up at
odd times under cross roads and in
buildings. %
Mangin installed himself without
waiting for engineers to examine the
premises, and again the staff was in a
state Of mind. The first evening dur
ing dinner mine went off close by,
rocked the house, and sprayed the
room with broken window glass. Man
gin was talking at the time. He
paused, motioned to Baba,. his tall
Senegalese orderly, to sweep up the
pieces, and went on.
Afterward Rochbuet, his aide, said
laughingly: IF it had been us instead
of the windows it would have been
just the same He would have had
Bahia sweep us into his pail"
All this was a standard of military
conduct. Brutality, however, was for
eign to his nature. His treatment of
prisoners was invariably humane and
considerable. He shrank from order
ing punislrments and executions. I.
In the autumn an escaping prisoner
was caught in the front lines in
French uniform. The lieutenant who.
caught him sent him back to army
headquarters. Mangin sent for the
lieutenant.
why didn't you shoot him when
you caught him?" he demanded. u
don't want him." He told the story at
dinner and added hopelessly "And
now what am going to do with him?
OF course ought to shoot him, but
the poor devil had no intention of be-
ing spy. He only wanted to escape"
AS a matter of fact he did not shoot
him but sent him to the rear, and /
suspect the man went back to Ger

BALL
BY SOL MEIZ,,r.4.

Block plays of all sorts have been
dealt with in these articles. Now
let us take up the schemes used to
break them up. Illinois was par
ticularly fine at this last season
when they rarely could control the
tip-Off at center, so the methods
practiced by Coach Ruby's five are
we'll worth while. Haines, a guard,
was particularly effective.
In the diagram A represents
Haines and B the center. On a tip
off play by the opponents 10 their
left forward when the right for
ward, No. 2, came in to block the
center, b, SO the opposing center,
No. /, could break out of the circle
to his own right and rush up the
floor and take a pass without be-
ing covered by B, Haines, A, would
rush in, covering his forward. size
up the situation and reverse his di-
rection, covering No. !, as shown
in the diagram and in the lower
illustration. That shift would per-
init Il to cover No. 2 and thus com
pletely block the play.
This is a common form or move
used to break up block plays. In
fact to break them up two team
mates have to trade the men they
are covering, else one OF these op-
ponents is free
