WILD LIFE REFUGE

Izaak Walton League Men,
bers Asked by U. S. Official
to Use Influence.

Members of the Izaak Walton League.
all who are interested in the conserva-
tion of wild life in the District of CO.
lumbia and vicinity were appealed to
Yesterday by w. L. McAtee Of the
Division of Food Research. United
States Biological Survey, to use their
influence in making the Potomac River
from the District line to Mount Vernon
a wild life refuge.
Mr.. McAtee pointed out that the last
Congress passed bill, approved July
IA, 1882, making the waters OF the
District a waterfowl sanctuary. He
said if the features that now make the
area attractive to waterfowl are pre-
served and forever protected from
destruction and are not treated like
the Eastern Branch of the Potomac,
confined between stone walls, and
dredged out, the act of Congress will
not have been in vain.
River improvements, so called. have
been carried on in this region long
enough for all of us to see what 1t
means to wild life and to natural
beauty" he said. "All of our waters
are embraced in the sanctuary referred
to, but due to what are called improve
mentS, part of them are no longer OF
value to wild life.
Under present conditions people in
the District of Columbia have oppor-
tunities for viewing waterfowl from
park driveways that are not equalled in
any other large city in the land. If
the dredging of the shoals is permitted,
the food of the birds and necessarily
therefore the birds. themselves. will
disappear These shoals are attractive
because upon them grow the water
plants that provide food directly Cor

Formal announcement has been
made by the Sisters OF Mercy OF
Connecticut Of the opening OF II
Junior college In September, 1892,
at Hamilton Heights, West Hart
ford. as was stated in the current
issue OF the Catholic Transcript.
The Sisters of Mercy have been
planning the starting of "A college
department in addition to their
academy which comprises Il four
year high school course, and re-
ceived u charter for same seven
years ago.
The institution IL fully equipped
to begin u complete college Curl
culum, having "a highly trained
faculty, an abundance OF sclenti-
iic equipment, an extensive library.
and other facilities needed for an
up to- date college OF the hrst
order" 1t was stated In the Tran
script article. that because or the

script Is given out as follows:
Que to financial causes. many
gIfted and deserving young women
cannot avail themselves OF college
education which entails the ex-
pcnse OF residence away from

wears of their college course while
remaining under the care and IN
fiuence of their parents.
"rhe new Junior college ut Ham
ilton Heights, will attempt to meet
the needs resulting from both or
these conditions. Its purpose Will
thus be two-fold: TO prepare those
who will continue their college
course mt other colleges or at uni
versities; and to offer to others n
finishing cultural education. while
cndowing them with such Voca-
tional power ms shall enable them
should the need arise. to become
self-supporting and economically

courses Of study will be planned IN
accordance with those OF the best
colleges of the country. no that at
