wears it bobbed and reached
back with a comb. They say
one becomes old when ones mind
retreats into the past instead of
advancing into the future. If this
be a criterion, then Mrs. Bethel
is still a young woman, for it is
difficult to persuade her to talk
of days of long ago. Her in
terest lies in the present, rather
than the past. The European
war now holds her rapt atten
ton. Her sympathy is with the
intrepid Firms in their struggle
with the Russians and she keeps
up to the minute with front line
news. Mrs. Bethel has spent her
entire life in Key West For four
score years and IL she has watch
ed the island pass through many
cycles. She has lived through
wars and rumors of wars; she has
seen the city at the zenith of its
career; witnessed the triumphant
entry of Flagler's Iron Horse; she
has passed through the Florida
boom and its aftermath-the dark
days of the depression. Through
it all she has lived simple, sin
cere and serene life, cultivating
along the way, faith, cheerfulness,
and a child-like faith in God.

WILDLIFE WEEK
BEGINS MARCH IL

Continued from Page One)
Survey can take steps to preserve
the species.
Last year the inventory show
ed that there were 1928 big
game animals in Florida.
Other experts of the Survey
study the food habits of the mann
mails and birds SO that wildlife
technicians can maintain good
food plants on areas where the
various species live. These
studies are of economic import
ance not only for wildlife but for
agriculturists", observed Mr..
Greene, 'since depredations on
farms are often controlled by
taking advantage of known food
preferences of the animals.
Fur Industry Helped
The fur industry, also, is bene-
fitted by the work of Survey bio
logists. In Fontana, Calf, is the
United States Rabbit Experiment
Station, which makes investiga-
tions to learn the best methods of
raising rabbits for profit. A Fur
Animal Experiment Station in
Saratoga Springs, N. Y, investi-
gates feeding, housing, handling
and other techniques for raising
minks, foxes and other fur ami
mails.
Conditions of fur animals in the
wild are observed by biologists
on the various wildlife refugees,
national forests, national parks,
state areas and in Alaska.
Survey scientists also are en-
gagged in studying diseases affect
ing wild animals. Trained work
ers who specialize in this field
are stationed in various parts of
the country. DR.. J. E. Shillinger
conducts wildlife-diseaSe investi-
cations in Florida. a@f
Referring to another phase of
Biological Survey activities, Mr..
Greene said that lone of the out
standing achievements in the his
tory of conservation was the ap-
proval on September 2, 1887, of
the Federal Aid in Wildlife Res
toration Act.
States Benefit From Federal Aid
In the first 10 months since
Congress appropriated funds to
help the states restore their wild
life, the Biological Survey APP
proved 1877 projects in AZ states.
Some Sal, 990.16 were available
to Florida since the Pittman-Rob-
ertson Act, as it is also called, was
passed. Of the sum, the Federal
government contributed rs per-
cent and the state Is percent.
Projects already approved and
underway are: A statewide sur
vey to determine possibilities and
make recommendations for a res
toration program has been ap-
proved.
Federal Aid appropriations
cannot exceed the annual rev.
enue from the 10 percent tax on
sporting arms and ammunition.

KANSAS VOTE IS
 STILL DOUBTFUL

Topeka, Kansas. Nov. - (U.PJ William H. Burke of Little River held a slight lead over Payne H. Rather in the Kansas governor $ race today with almost complete unofficial returns tabulated, but election officials said that the ab- sentee ballots yet to be counted or the official canvass might change the final result.
 The lead of Burke, Democratic nominee, was slightly more than 1000 votes. The number of absen- tee ballots was around 16,000, elec- ton officials said, counting those mailed to persons outside the state and those sent to persons inside the state but outside their regular vot- ing precincts.
 Frank J. Ryan, secretary of state, said it might be week~or 10 days before the race will be decided de- finitely.
