Washington, Nov. 11.-(AP)-Presi-

age today to the Unknown Soldier,
who rests on a rolling hillside in Ar
ington cemetery. He motored from
the White House through a bright au-
tumnal sun to the tomb of the SOL
dier, symbolic of Americas war dead
and, with high dignitaries and just
plain people looking on, presented a
wreath of white chrysanthemums at
the marble sarcophagus.
Mr.. Roosevelt stood at solemn at
tention while his naval aide, Captain
Daniel Callaghan, stepped forward
with the wreath. Then muffled drums
rolled three times and an army bug
ler sounded the notes of s'taps" The
slow music rolled out over Arlington S
graves and across the Potomac to
the majestic Lincoln Memorial, which
picked up the tones and echoed them
back.
Directly after the Presidents de-
parture, honor guards of the Marine
Corps, Navy and Army silently salut-
ed their unknown companion. The
American Legidrt with representa-
tives from the 48 states and the Dis
trict of Columbia, moved into posi-
ton before the tomb, where National
Commander Stephen Chadwick, OF
Seattle, Wash, laid wreath below
that of the Presidents.

4 BALANCED aquarium is world
~ on the window sill - not
just a goldfish globe. 1t can
be made as beautiful as the
aquarium on the cover of this maga-
zine. 1t is a world where fish live un-
molested, undisturbed; where snails rid
plants of algae growths, scour glass
and clean the sand: where plants
thrive in sunlit water, and every living
thing works for the good of all.
A balanced aquarium for goldfish
must be large - at least ten gallons,
and a twenty-gallon tank would be
even better. Set the aquarium near
window where it will receive at least an
hours sunlight every fair day.
Cover the bottom OF the aquarium
to a depth of at least two inches with
clean. coarse sand. Fill the tank with
cold water.
When the water clears and warns
to about seventy degrees, which prob
ably will be the next day. arrange the
plants. The plants will look like dis
couraged spinach when you unwrap
them; and they won't look much bet
ter when they are first planted. But
remember that the plants will grow
and spread, so don't set them too
close together.

plants are beginning to look as though
they might grow, the time has come to
buy your fish. This is where you must
restrain yourself. A ten-gallon aqua
rum should, under fairly good con-
ditions, make comfortable home for
five or six goldfish that are not more
than two inches long, exclusive of
tails - you never count the tails when
measuring fish, If you buy too many
fish the extra ones are sure to die. Buy
plump, active fish; and, if possible,
buy fish that have been kept in bal
anced aQuaria. And don't forget a
couple of snails.
Cover the tank with sheet of plate
glass to retard evaporation. The fish
won't suffocate; they take their oxygen
from the water.
When that is done you can settle
back, theoretically. and admire the
result of your work. Actually, that
isn't quite true. When you arranged
the tank you were careful to keep out
of it any of the mosquito larvae.
worms, or bugs on which fishes feed,
so you will have to feed the fish every
day or so. But except for feeding. the
tank should take care of itself - you
don't even have to change the water
- and should be healthier and prettier
five years from now than it is today.

Another of the new arrivals was a
male European jay. 1t was pecking
away in a pan of soft prepared food
when l saw the beakless jay thrush
hop up on the rim of the pan - and
the European jay picked up a piece
of fruit and thrust it into the jay
thrush's beak cavity!
Then it dawned on me that the jay
thrush was actually healthy. we'll
nourished bird, that its beak injury
was not a new one The European
Jay apparently had been feeding it
for months, if not for years.
Such a thing is almost unheard of
among birds. Parents will feed their
young. a hornbill's mate will feed her
while she is hoIed up in her nest -
but for an adult bird of one species
to feed an injured or incapacitated
adult of quite unrelated species is
just one of those things that birds
don't do. They are not altruists or
Good Samaritans.
That feeding process went on all
the time the birds were living in our
collection - a period of several years.
Finally l arrived at a probable ex-
PLANTATION of the mystery. The female
of the European jay, like the female
white headed jay thrush, is fed by the
male during the breeding and nesting
season. When the female Of either
species, at that period. wants to be
fed, she squeaks and assumes squat
ting position. and the male feeds her.
Whether the female jay thrush was in
jured during the breeding season,
when instinct impelled her to squeak
for food, or whether hunger after her
injury caused her to assume the prop
er attitude, l can never know. But
somehow in the beginning she did.
and the European jay fed her, as was
the custom of his kind; and ever
thereafter he continued his role.
This theory is, perhaps, subject to
argument; but it is the only rational
explanation. in the light of bird psy-
chology, that l can advance.
Eventually the male bird died. and
we tried hand-feeding the jay thrush.
1t was in vain: she died day or two
later.
biologists do not like to draw
close parallels between human and
animal, or bird, reactions; but some
times the comparison is inescapable.
Jealousy just plain. old-fashioned
green-eyed jealousy - invaded the
cage of our long-crested hornbills
recently.
Evening star., 1938-04-10
Nogozins Section

There was a pair in the cage, and
adjoining them was a concave-
casqued hornbill-a a personable
young bachelor bird. l knew that the
concave-casqued hornbill had become
enamored of the female long crested,
and used to feed her grapes through
the large-meshed side of the cage. An
interesting sequel l heard from visi-
tor who witnessed it. Incidentally.
the visitor did not know the signih-
canoe of what she was telling me, and
had no incentive for inventing any
Of it.
While she was watching the birds,
she said, the female ong-crested
hoped across the perch and put her
bill next to the wire. The bachelor
concave-casqued plucked grape out
of his dish and thrust it through the
wires into her open beak.
He had done that many times be-
fore; but this time the females mate
saw her in the act. He flashed down
from his overhead perch and with one
stroke of his wing sent her tumbling
onto the bottom of the cage. The
grape fell out of her beak and lay
beside her.
As her outraged mate perched over
her, she docilely and humbly picked
up the grape. flew up beside him,
and offered it to him! And he took it
- in the spirit. hope. in which it was
offered!
The mother instinct" that some
times runs riot in human breasts has
its counterpart in birds. l remember
a Chinese goose. with no young ones
of her own, that attempted to kidnap
the gosIings of pair of Canada geese.
She met with innumerable rebuffs,
but eventually she became a sort OF
nursemaid and friend of the family,
and was allowed to share in the care
of the goslings Then there was a
fussy little white hen that so longed
for family that we gave her some
Upland goslings. which she reared
with pride and satisfaction.
Those strange attachments reached
their peak, however, in the case OF
huge rhea that adopted male guinea
fowl and on cold nights used to shelter
him under her wing. 1t seemed quite
a touching friendship until spring
came and, unaccountably, the guinea
fowl turned upon his protector and
pursued her relentlessly around the
enclosure. And if that wasn't ingIati-
tude personified, don't know what
to call it.
