that the herons nested.
Most of the keys are low-Iying

are higher and dryer and have
coarse sandy beaches. Exactly
how many islands are within the
refuge boundary is not known.
Many of the keys have not been
surveyed and some are not even
shown on maps. The refuge
manager, however, estimates that
there are some 1000 keys in the

The great white heron. males
tic bird of Florida that was al
most wiped out in the 1905 by
hunters who sold its plumes to
mIlllnerS, IS well on its way to
successful recovery, officials OF
the Fish and Wildlife Service re-
ported today to Secretary of the
Interior Harold L. Ickes. Ac-
cording to a recent estimate there
are about 1000 of these birds on
the Great White Heron and Kew
West National Wildlife Refugees
on the Florida Keys. Others NAV
be found on other keys in the
Gulf of Mexico.
Established in 1898 as a sane
tuary for these comparatively
rare birds. the Great White
Heron Refuge consists of a num-
Der of keys and islands lying
along the Gulf of Mexico side OF
the main Florida Keys. The q
OO0-acre refuge was established
primarily to preserve the great
white heron but, with its ad-
jacent sister sanctuary, the Key
West National Wildlife Refuge, II
also protects other forms of wild
life, including many species OF
herons, the man-o'-war bird, east
ern brown pelican. snowy egret,
white-crowned pigeon, turkey
lvulture, southern bald eagle,
laughing gull and terms.
The original decrease in the
great white heron population Is
attributed not only to market
hunters but TO commercial fisher
men who in the early 1905 gath
cred the young for food 1t is
said that at one time the species
was reduced to an estimated 100
pairs The species almost became
extinct again in 1895 when q
hurricane reduced the population
TO less than $50.
When II became apparent a
few years ago that the great
white heron was rapidly ap-

JACKSONVILLE; EX-SERV-
ICE MEN RE-ENLISTING
Especial to The CitfxenD

JACKSONVILLE, Aug. I'll
Enlistments are being made from
all over the state in the u. S.
Naval Reserve at the Reserve
ArmOry in South Jacksonville.
1t is interesting to note that a
number of ex-Service men are re-
enliSting in the Naval Reserve in
order to place their services at
the disposal of their country in
the National Defense program.
The seventeen boys from the
state that enlisted in Class VI,
to train as midShipmen, reported
on board the U. S. S. Wyoming
and Arkansas on the 18th. These
young men have been given an
unusual opportunity of becoming
officers of the line in the u. S.
Naval Reserve, as well as re-
ceiving educational benefits
equal to a year in college.
Applicants wishing to qualify
for this training will save con-
siderable time and inconvenience
by having their birth certificate,
letters of recommendation, and
college certificate with them
when they apply at the armory
for a physical examination.
Educational qualification is a
minimum of two years at an ac-
credited college or university,
which mean a diploma for a two
years course, or a certificate of
credits from a four year course
totaling one half of required
credits for graduation.
