Notebook of Science Progress in Field,

BY THOMAS r. HENRY

With strict projections during the past
few years, these birds have greatly in
creased in numbers. Those that breed
along the New England coast to Labrador
winter further South along the Atlantic
Coast to the Gulf of Mexico. Informa-
tion on their fall and winter distribu-
ton is very limited. In the past they
have been banded with aluminium bands.
These bands could not be recovered with
out the death or injury of the bird. The
colored bands, however, can be seen
while the birds are in fight and the
colors will indicate where they have
come from.
A new insect pest, which defoliated
thousands of acres of forest in the West
this fall and made the trees look as
though they were draped with light
silken shrouds, is worrying entomologists
of the Department of Agriculture.
This is the tan moth. 1t has been
known for many years but hitherto its
natural enemies have kept it under strict
control so that it has done little damage.
This year some part of this natural con-
troll broke down.
Already. however, it is reasserting
itself so that no permanent damage may
be done to the forests. Entomologists
report vast increase in the numbers
of a parasitic fly in the defoliated region.
The damage is done by the insect in it's
caterpillar stage.

usually felt in this part Of the country
during the latter part Of October and
the early part of November.
It is related that when the Pilgrims
landed in New England in 1920 the sea-
son was well advanced and cold weather
had set In. They made the best Of the
condition and weathered the severe
climate. Knowing little of the climate
of that part Of America, they faced the
second Winter with some apprehension.
With October came the first snow
iurries, with frost nipping the woods.
One Of them remarked I'VE will soon
have Winter" But friendly Indians
pointed to the skies and to the West and
told the settlers that Summer would
come again before the Winter. This
prophecy proved correct. In the, last
days Of October the air became warm
again and the air was filled with sun
shine. The world. it was recorded,
seemed wrapped in an atmosphere of
sleepy warmth" The settlers recalled
the forecast of the Indians and remarked
10, the Indians Summer!" That is
believed to have been the origin of the
term. 1t has since applied generally to
the period of renewed warmth that oc-
ours in the northeastern part of this
country during the latter part of Oc-
tober and the early part of November
1t is a season of delight. The glorious
foliage, tinted by the early frosts, glows
with a superb radiance The air is
balny and kindly, and though the nights
may be chill the days are warm. One
can easily imagine how grateful those
first settlers in the northern part of
America were for the interlude of Glenn
ency, giving them courage for withstand
ing the rigors of the season of short days
and bitter temperatures, with heavy
SHOWS blocking the roads and paths
through the forests.
The Indians are almost all gone from
New England, but their weather lore
remains definite part of the American
language, and their name attaches to
this period of respite from the severity
of the climate, which brings back to
mind the bravery of those who crossed
the sea to find haven of security in
the New World.

Hard Shoulders Needed
To Make the Roads Safe
To the Editor of The Star:

To the EDITOR OF The Star:
On previous occasions you have main
tanned that no one has right to park
on a public highway, an idea which
if carried to it's logical conclusion would
close the roads to all but through traffic
and those rich enough to pay for park
ing space or to hire a chauffeur to
drive around the block while they
shopped or dined. Now in your edi-
torial of October % you uphold a law
that one must not even stop on a high
way, without driving off the hard sur
face and risking being stuck on soft
shoulder" or overturning in a ditch.
This would seem to close the roads to
through traffic. as one can hardly be
expected to endanger himself and others
by trying to consult map while hold
ing it in one hand and driving with the
other. 1t can not be said that "the
paved roadway is primarily and indeed
exclusively for the use of cars in mo-
tion" until roads are built with hard
shoulders" so that one can pull off
the hard surface with safety. The
danger of collision with a stopped
vehicle at night is serious one, but
the only enforceable remedy is a re-
f1ector at the rear of all cars, as required
in some States.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Warblers and sparrows are two bird
families the amateur observer will have
the most trouble with, as he attempts
to pin the right name on the right bird.
If he is wise, he will not mind too
much If he fails.
Let secret be whispered:
Many home observers have given up
this job entirely.
They are content to watch these little
fellows, especially the warblers, as they
alight in small hocks on their way South,
without making any attempt to identify
them.
They handle sparrows in much the
identify; even the least interested person
in time viii come to know the song spar
row, the white -throated sparrow, and the
fox sparrow, in addition to the ever
present English species.
Perhaps it is just as we'll If the aver
age observer refuses to worry his head
about these two fine bird families.
Birds are birds, and they are just as
much pleasure to watch whether the
observer knows each species or not.
This might seem heresy, to some, but
actually what is bird observation for,
after all?
1t is, or should be, for happiness, pure
and simple.
If anything bothers one, in this sport,
he ought to give over that particular
branch, provided, of course, it offers
genuine perterbation.
There is a pleasant depth of small
uneasiness which does not merit the
name
Every one will have to be the judge
of this for himself.
1t is only when the worry over identi-
flying birds overcomes the happiness in
watching them that it should be dis
pensed with; after all, this seldom applies
to more than couple of families, usu-
ally the two named.
\
No families deserve study more than
the. sparrows and warblers. it is true.
They are great families, but the men,
bers of each look so much like each
other, in the main, that the pure anna
teur attempt to differentiate between
the species offers mostly headache to
the persistent
Any one who has looked at the plates
of sparrows in any good bird book knows
how very much these fellows resemble
each other.
The warblers are even worse, in this
respect: surely a trained professional
ornithologist is needed to unlock the
right names for the right birds.
An average observer will not need this
precise knowledge to love the songsters
of all kinds; if he puts too much stress
on identification, he runs very great
risk of making his hobby bore.
Many persons ruin perfectly good
hobbies every day by trying to make
themselves into ofessionals-without
the professional reward, either in money
or reputation.
What the sheer amateur is after is
pleasure, is it not?
This pleasure is a notable thing, after
ALL No one need despise it. Not every
one can be a professional in everything
The world is too wide.
Every one can respect every branch
Evening star., 1937-11-02

Of knowledge, however, and that is where
the amateur bird observer comes in, at
least In this one branch. Every observer,
whether he can identify every bird he
sees or not, is an admirer of ornithol-
4gists, who are supposed to be able to
do just that thing, as a part of their
Job. Zone wonders whether they really
CAM
Identification is not the whole thing"
In bird watching.
No, 1t is only part, and need not neces-
sarily be a very large part.
The tendency of most amateurs is to
give this feature Of watching too large
a place.
1t is interesting, and it is important,
but not so much so that 1t should dis
turb any amateurs peace of mind, or
cause his eyes to ache.
The good idea to get in the back of
the head, and to keep there, is that the
birds, themselves, comprise the whole
show.
There they are, fluttering around, eat
ing from the feeding station, coming
and going over the days.
1t Is an interest in life, itself, which
is the main thing.
X
The urge to know the exact name of
the bird one looks at is definite enough.
No matter how much one reminds
himself that this knowledge is not neces-
sary, the moment he sees new one in
the shrubbery, he cannot help asking
himself the question:
What bird is that?
This is natural enough; the whole point
is that there is a limit to this sort of
thing.
How far the attempt to find out can
be carried rests solely on the individual
temper
Never carry it beyond your own point.
The sheer pleasure of watching the
living birds is the main thing, and no
feature of that watching ought to lure
one to forget it.
Identification is we'll enough, if it does
not become an obcession, or tend to dis
tract the watcher from the big show.
There will be many of the smaller
birds, especially at migrating times,
which no one except an expert can hope
to identify.
Mostly they come in small f1ocks, and
hover over the shrubbery for a few min
utes at time, then are gone forever.
Do not spoil this fine spectacle by
worrying over the names of the mi
orators.
If you have had some experience at
bird observation, and yet do not know
the birds, feel pretty sure that they are
warblers of some sort, or maybe spar
rows.
Most of the warbler family are tiny
birds, not more than five inches from
tip to bill to tip of tail.
This means that they will look much
smaller, not more than three inches, if
one were asked to guess.
Often they are gray-green in color,
with a bit of white on them. Some of
the vireos have white rings, almost spec
tacles, around their eyes.
What difference does it make about
their names?
There is the bird, and he or she is
quite enough.

The Re.Discoverer.

When Thomas Rickersham was sixty,
he supposed that was ready to retire.
A bachelor and reasonably well-to-do,
he thought of himself as being entitled
to rest. Freedom from routine, emanci-
patton from the discipline of business,
he wanted. 1t was his hope and ex-
pectation, he told his friends, to "vege-
tate and take life easy"
But Mr.. Rickersham soon was disillu-
stoned. The habit of his mind could
not be revolutionized to order. Within
a few days he found himself feeling like
a fish out of water" He attempted vari-
Gus hobbies with only Indifferent salts
faction. His hands were too stiff to
play the piano, his legs were not equal
to the pedestrian demands of golf and
his back simply would not submit to the
punishment involved in gardening and
tennis. Bridge he hated, small talk with
casual acquaintance he despised The
movies and the radio were not con-
sistently amusing. Mere time killing,
he decided, was crime of which he
would not be guilty.
A natural instinct prompted Mr.. Rick
ersham to a rational solution of his
problem. He pondered the dilemma
carefully, then Systematically planned
its correction. So it happened that he
began his adventures. Equipped with
the best maps and guidebooks available,
he commenced his pilgrimage in Florida,
following the footsteps of Ponce de Leon
and de Soto. At st. Augustine he
checked up on the Spaniards and Sir
Francis Drake. In Georgia he "veri-
fed" Ribault and James Oglethorpe. in
Alabama he inspected" Mobile and in
Louisiana New Orleans-old French
settlements in which the past never dies.
Similarly, he trailed de Soto's company
in Arkansas and met" Marquette and
La Sale coming down the Mississippi
The Spanish pioneers, he learned, had
crossed the river at Memphis and both
the French expeditions had been in
Tennessee. Joliet also was remembered
in Kentucky.
OF course, Mr.. Rickersham saw little
in the way of physical or material evi-
dence of the early explorers. But he
was not especially interested in ruins,
the shattered debris of history. Rather,
he desired to take into his experience
the country-the hills and valleys, the
plains, the flowing streams, the still un-
ravished forests, the encircling sky
which the wanderers of another age had
known. His eyes, however. beheld more
than theirs. AS he sped over unending
highways, through innumerable towns
and villages, he appreciated the growth
OF civi!ization-the gradual conquest OF
every sort of circumstance. He saluted
the memory OF Daniel Boone and swept
down from the Blue Ridge toward the
Bay, where Sir Walter Raleigh and
Capt. John Smith had sailed. James.
town and Williamsburg were his OBJ
Jectives. He paused at Mount Vernon
momentarily and stayed over night in
Washington.
And it was in the Nations Capital
that MIR. Rickersham first comprehended
his new vocation. A newspaper man
gave him his cue when he declared
Say, fellow; you're rediscoverine
America"

Some of the portraits of distinguished

for sheer beauty.
