Remembered Dogs.

Formal burial of a dog, it seems, stirs
derision among those unfortunates who.
sadly enough, never have had canine
friends. But a majority of men and
women probably understand the grief
which motivates the decent and honor
able interment of the remains of a brute
companion. In any case, there is ample
precedent for such policy of respect
and affection. Among the epitaphs in
the Greek Anthology" as translated by
Prof. j. w. Mackail, may be found this
sentiment OF an unknown author: Thou
who passest on the path, if haply thou
dost mark this monument, laugh not, I
pray thee, though it is a dogs grave;
tears fell for me, and the dust was
heaped above me by a masters hands,
who likewise engraved these words upon
my tomb"
And the poet simonides, quoted in the
same volume, was not ashamed to have
penned these lines for a Thessalian
hound: Surely even as thou Hest dead
In this tomb deem the wild beasts yet
fear thy white bones, huntress Lycas;
and thy valour great Pelion knows and

Consider the Hawk.

Those who Realistically complain
about the anarchy of nature are invited
to consider the hawk. DR.. Arthur Cleve-
land Brent of the Smithsonian Institu-
tion recently has directed attention to
the high degree of ornithological civili-
cation which the red-shouldered variety
of the falconidae family has attained. A
representative example of the tribe, he
says, 'gets married very young, and,
unlike most of the feathered philander-
ers, never deserts his wife. He stakes
oEt a home and does not leave it. He
even puts up no-trespassing signs made
Of fresh sprigs of evergreen"
Human contemporaries, it seems,
might do worse than be mindful of the
hawks philosophy of matrimonial law
and order. But DR.. Brent caps the climax
OF his report by citing one of the birds
habits which is downright marvellous in
It's implications. He declares that 1t is

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Last year at this time the 17-year-
locusts were attracting the attention of
all persons interested in Nature-and of
many who weren't
This year some of the annual locusts
have appeared, and they look remark
ably like the others to the unpracticed
eye.
There is no high-pitched drone in the
trees, though, no fire-engine siren Shrek
at the end Of the ditty.
After all, it was that unmistakable cry
in the treetops which set the cicadas
apart, and helped make them one of the
real natural wonders.
Do you know a bird whose call is re-
markably like that of giant insect?
1t is the flicker, whose long drawn out
"quirt, quirt, quirt, quirt, quirt," rapidly
ascending and then descending, for be-
tween 20 and 80 repetitions, sounds very
much like the song Of some of these "hot
bugs which make the famous welkin
ring on humid Summer nights.
The flicker is nice bird, but it has
an outrageous song.
Some persons have rendered it as
"Wet, wet, wet, wet" ETC., but it is diff
ficult to read that word into the sounds.
Prof. Mathew, in his book on the music
OF the wild birds, gives it the reading of
"qulrt, and that is much nearer.
Actually it is very unpleasant sound,
it seems to US, not in the same class with
the tiny Wren's ecstatic measures, which
it somewhat resembles 1t lacks the
clear, bubbling quality of the latter.
The f1icker's sounds are more noise
than song. Really it becomes a sort OF
minor nuisance, until one stops to realize
that music demands some dissonance.
The crow is much more entitled to the
appelation song bird" than the flicker.
at least according to our ear.
There is something eminently satisfy
ing in the cav, cav" of the big fellow,
Scientifically, the crow is a song bird,
owing to the development of his throat
muscles, which put him in the classif-
cation.
Actually he has a much better voice
than the flicker. Yet the latter un-
doubtedly is song bird. too.
Ky
One might think this bird with the
red patch on his neck a veritable hen
cackllng over the laying Of an egg.
He makes this long sound at all hours
OF the day, but in common with most
birds, prefers the evening, when he re-
doubles his efforts.
1t Is possible to have fickers in the
nelghborhood without hearing this call.
Evidently it is a nesting song. If one
accepts the territorial theory of bird
songs, wherein the song is supposed to
be literal stalking" of the birds claim
TO SO much territory. one must admit at
once that the flicker does a rather
handsome job of it.
Tree stubs are perhaps the favorite
nesting place of this bird.
One might live six or seven wears in
a nelghborhood without once hearing
the call noted above. but let tree die,

Prohibiting Injunction
of Peaceful Pickering

To the Editor of The Star:
On the 28th of May there appeared in
your paper an item under the heading
Court Bars Move Against Picketing." 1t
reads, The case involved the piCketing
of PhlFS Grill by the Hotel and Restau-
rant Employees Local No. 781." The pro-
prietor asked the court to enjoin the
union, contending there was no bona fide
labor dispute involving the employees, and
the plcketing was against the wishes of
his employees. The union claimed that
the restaurant was being piCketed be-
cause OF the discharge of bartender last
month, and as a result of the picketing
the proprietor claimed his business had
been reduced one-third.
In refusing to enjoin the union, Judge
ODonoghue said the evidence had shown
the picketing was peaceful and the
lawyer for the union claimed the court
had no power since the NorriS-La
Guardia act prohibits the injunction OF
peaceful picketing by Federal Court.
This writer with many others in con-
nection with the foregoing wonders where
this country is going to land under such
a law? They can violate justice if they
only refrain from smashing the windows
and creating a riot.

picket the White House. What would
happen? r. LAPPIN.

Golden Rule Is Medium of
All Civilized Countries

To the Editor Of The Star:
In certain class room last week, a
student was asked: What country DO
you think is the most civilized?" The
child answered, The United States, of
course" That was the expected answer
and that is what all of us would like to
believe.
While civilization is only a relative
term, yet there must be standard and
medium by which all countries can be
measured by the same principle yard
stick-the Golden Rule. This applies to
every living human being.
All wars pestilence, crimes and deaths
should serve as an impetus to apply this
principle. But does it? At best, it serves
only to increase the efficiency of wardom,
vary the kind of pestilence, make the
crimes more horrible and the deaths more
inevitable.
Do the recent floods, traffic casualties,
airplane crashes, explosions, crime wave,
etc, mean anything or are they just an
other series of fatal events?
What does Congress think about It?
Many OF these events could have been
averted. All resulted from acts of omis-
sion or commission of men.

Fairness to a Prisoner.
From the Worcester Gazette


Ihey have new law in New York
which permits jury to recommend life
imprisonment instead of the death pen
ATTY, IN convlctlng a person of first-de-
gree murder. The jury's recommends
tlon, however, is not binding on the
judge.
SO, in the Westchester County Court
the other day, when this recommenda-
tlon was made by the jury which had
just brought in a verdict of guilty.
against Novio Santoro, the prisoner had
no assurance that he wouldn't be SEN
fenced to death.
AS MS lawyers promptly moved for a
new trial, this held up the sentence in
def1nltely. and he had the prospect of
waiting for weeks or months in uncer-
talnty regarding his sentence. II was
at this point that County Judge Gerald
Nolan went out of his way to relieve the
mans apprehension.
1T would be unfair to keep you in
doubt the judge said; and told him, if
new trial were not granted, he would
De sentenced to prison, not to death. A
spirit of fairness and consideration is
no unusual thing on the bench, but the
incident presents Judge Nolan in an
agreeable light.
With death in the offing, uncertainty
can become refined form of torture.
Hard-bolled criminals are expected to
take 1t as part of what they have COM
ing to them. But justice is not dulled
by the demonstration that Judge is
endowed with a humane and Under
standing mind.
