sad things happen by means OF ter
,rible guns, but this Is th saddest
thing I have ever seen" Later he
met Graywing and said as much to
him.
"You don't know the half" replied
Graywing. "If you Travelled up and
down the lonely shore as I do for
long distances, and II you fiew way
out to sea, rs I do, then you might
have some idea of how dreadful it
Is. I really don't know what is going
to happen II stop is not put to 1t. !"
Then he told how he had, as gulls
50 often do, followed steamer long
distances and how he had seen the
waste oil dumped overheard to spread
and make q film over the surface OF
the water. He told how he had seen
ducks swim into it without knowing
what they were doing, and then seen
them become helpless and finally die.
"If there was any reason for 1t
that I could see. it wouldn't seem
quite 80 bad" said Graywing. There
was a time when we never heard OF
such q thing, but now this thing is
happening all up and down the shore.
1t is hard enough on those ducks to
have to make the long flight from the
North down here In quest Of food.
They have learned how to watch out
for the dreadful guns that are al
ways waiting for them, but this Is

"Wait. and you'll see," replied his
cousin.
Three days later Blacky was flying
along the beach. His sharp eyes do
not miss much. Half buried In q
bunch Of seaweed he saw a feathered
form. He alighted slose by to look
at it. He knew instantly that it was
one Of those sick ducks that he had
seen drifting out three days before.
He saw at once that it was dead. He
approached 1t closely. A dead duck
would not be such bad eating. But
1t didn't take him long to discover
that this particular duck would be
very bad eating. It was covered with
that unpleasant oil that he had at
different times seen washed up on the
beach.
A little farther on his found an
other one Of those ducks, also dead.
Then he found two or three together.
Never had Blacky witnessed so bad a
sight. He knew now that prabably
that whole flock had been killed by
this dreadful stuff on the water.

than the dreadful guns. What Is
more, I suspect that it is destroying
the food that some OF the ducks
live on"
''It's too bad" said Blacky.
TOO badI" exclaimed Graywing.
1T Is many times worse than too bad,
and we are helpless. There's moth
ing we can do about it. 1t some
times seems to me that these men

II don't know but you're right"
said Blacky. IF we Crows were not
pretty smart people, there wouldn't

So Blacky and Graywing sat on the
rocks and talked, and perhaps it Is
just as well that we do not know all
they said. Certain it is that man
has much to account for in his treat
ment Of his neighbors in fur and

to believe what Cousin Fish Crow
and Graywing the Gull had Just

ducks out in the water little way

lot of waste oil had been dumped on
the water by steamers of shore. Gray
wing had explained how those ducks
had swan into 1t, not knowing what
the stun was, and how 1t had gum
med up and clogged their feathers
until they were unable either to dive
or to fly. All they could do was to
paddle about and now they hadn't
strength enough to do much Of that.
They were weak and sick.
Gradually the big flock drifted out
until Blacky could no longer see the
ducks. He wondered If he ever would
see them again. He just couldn't be-
iieve that anything SO dreadful could
have happened to so many birds all

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 3.-Shorties.
Financially speaking, things seem
to be getting better out here. "A
Tale of Two Cities" to date has
crossed five hundred thousand
dollars more than any othe- Ron
aid Colman picture, with the ex-
ception Of Beau Geste", which
speaks nicely for the gentleman's
popularity. Lives Of a Bengal
Lancer" crossed in excess Of a
million dollars in America and
did the same amount in England.
Now that, checked UP with the
crosses in other countries, should
make it more than lucrative for
