The modest mallard maiden Is dressed
in dark brown, with breast and under
meath buff notified with gray. Her
wings are marked like the males.
He is a most ardent sutton and no
one would believe that he would be so
indifferent to his family responsible
ties. But only on the anniversary of
their wedding date does he show any
sign of affection. Mallards wed for
life you know.
The mother builds her large nursery
close to the water and uses grass, hay
and whatever comes her way for the
nests exterior The lining is made coy
with down and feathers plucked from
her breast Six to II pale blush eggs
are laid. and for % days she keeps
them warm When she goes for her
daily swim she covers them with the
downy quilt, and as the time for hatch
ing draws close she never leaves her
nest. The wee goslings make for the
water as soon as their down is dry.
At this time they are often victims OF
the water rat and duck hawk.
The mallard is our most important
species and is widely known and dis
tributed over the United States. He is
the ancestor Of the barnyard duck. who
has strayed sadly from the straight and
narrow path.

MALLARD.


T NQUISITIVENESS has cost many a

i decoy, who seems TO be on the pond
By herself. Where the wild nee
and rishes grow about the edges OF
slow-moving streams and hide from
view great. grassy ponds, which may
be found in the interior of the United
States and Canada. mallards and other
ducks are sure to congregate.
In August and September vast armies
of mallards leave the Northlands, where
the food supply has been cut of, and
migrate toward the South. They fiy IN
wedge-shaped formation, and no mat
ter how high they CO. their wings are
kept Tapping They do not sal, and
the speed of duck is still unsurpassed.
Before landing, they circle about the
pond to make sure of safety.
They move about the water In q
leisurely manner, when you see the
whole company tip up, as If an order
had been given. They are probing the
muddy bottom for small fish, worms,
rootlets and mollusks But wild rice
or other grain is their choice and &C
counts for the delicious flavor OF the
meat
After enjoying bountlful meal they
do not take a nap or become logy.
They act as if they were at banquet,
with after-dinner speeches and enter
tainment a part of the program. They
labber, do stunts and cut up like merry
makers until the leader, who is always
on guard, sounds an alarm. With the
first "quack" Of warning the entire
flock rises in the air on whistling wings.

Will

Parties
Devine Plans Special Pre-
Lenten Dances at
Indiana.

An early 1882 Lenten season is
the cause of much activity among
local organizations, some of which
have already made plans for pre-
Lenten dances to be given in the
Indiana roof ballroom.
The first of such affairs will be
the Phi Gamma Theta sorority hop
to be given next Friday evening,
in addition to the roofs regular
collegiate night" dance.
Since either Thursday or Friday
nights are available for dancing
parties on the roof, Tom Devine
says organizations with older mem
berships are inviting their friends
to attend "old-time" parties on
Thursday nights, which are set
aside on the roof ballroom for
strictly old-fashioned dances with
string musical accompaniment.
One of the forthcoming "old-
time dances will be given Thurs
day evening, Jan. 81, under the
auspices of the Ladies Oriental
Shrine drum corps.
Devine says these parties do not
interfere with the bathrooms regu-
lar operation.
Frank Terry and his Ginger
Snaps are to remain in the roof
ballroom throughout the coming
week.

BERKELL TO
GIVE A REVIVAL

Starting Sunday night, the Ber-
kell Players will appear next week
in a gala revival of isis Hopkins, 81
the first of several famous play hits
of former years with which Charles
Berkell promises to spice his stock
season at Keiths.
For many years isis Hopkins
was q hilarious starring vehicle for
Rose Melville. AS such, it became
an institution with theater- goers all
over the land.
That it still fingers affectionately
in the memory of thousands has
been demonstrated during the last
year by its successful revival by the
leading stock companies from coast
to coast, who have found that the
play has in nowise lost its phe-
nomenal drawing power.
Recently, in Seattle, Wash, it was
given a stock production at the
Moore theater, where it smashed all
records and ran for three weeks.
A story of rural life in Indiana
isis Hopkins" chiefly concerns the
romance Of Sis, quaint country
Igirl, and Ridy Scorboro, a young
lawyer, struggling to establish a
practice in a small town.
There Is, of course, a villain from
the city who interrupts the course
of the love affair between Sis and
Ridy, and who is responsible for the
melodramatic moments that de-
develop as the plot unfolds.
Margery Williams will have the
title role, and Philip Brandon will
appear as Ridy Scarboro in the
Berkell revival.
Speciality features of an appropri-
ate nature will be interpolated in
the action of the play. Entertain
ment between acts will be provided
by the -Four Melody Maids.
