THIS AND THAT
By Charles =. Trace1rell,

vation Is the one which is actually the
case. ,,
There is no need to think Of the French
Chat" or cat, when all the time chat
comes simply from chatter This pleases
the ear and ones common sense at the
same time.
The Canada warbler has many COM
mon names. among them being the Ca
madam warbler, the Canada fiycatcher,
Canadian hycatching warbler, speckled
Canada warbler, necklaced warbler,
spotted Canadian warbler and Canada
necklace.
The favorite way Of putting the neck
laced warbler's song into syllables is a.
follows:
"Rup-it-che, rup-it-che, dup-it-chitt-
it-nt."
The specimens in our garden made no
sound at all.
They remained for perhaps three min
utes, then darted of to the east, evi-
dently making for Rock Greek Park As
fast As they could 60.
It Is not every day, Of course, that one
sees the Canadian warbler. So be pre-
pared to be pleased, II you do see one.
There Is another warbler which may be
seen At this time. It Is Wilson's warbler,
and Is distinguished by its neat black
cap, something like that of the catbird.
Wilson's warbler is another bird with
many common or folk names. Among
them are Wilson's nycatcher, Wilson's
hycatching warbler, Wilson'S black
cap, Wilson's black-capped flycatching
warbler, black-capped warbler, black-cap,
black-capped fiycatching warbler, green
black-capped warbler.
The Maryland yellow throat has many
names. including olive-colored yellow
throated wren, yellow throat, western
yellow-throat, Northern yellow throat,
Northern Maryland yellow throat, black
masked ground warbler and just plain
ground warbler.
There are many regional varieties OF
this bird, even some around here but
for all practical purposes one may say
Maryland yellow-throat and let 1t 60 at
that.
Both the Canadian warbler and the
black-cap catch flies and other insects
In the air, just as the true fycatchers do
but they do not belong to the hycatcher
family.
In attempting to Identify the various
warblers, the observer should try to esti-
mate the size, first Of all, and then look
quickly for distinctive markings, such
rs the necklace of the Canada warbler
or the black mask Of the Maryland yell
| lowthroat.
II, despite these cares, one is not able
to identify the bird, even after recourse
to 4 set Of pictures, one should not worry
in the least, as these are extremely difn.
cult birds to put the correct name tt
| at any time.

Another 'Czur' Needed

Original AFRAID signals were con-
fused by lack of uniformity between
communities. When the Army
changed the system and prescribed
only two standard signals on the
sirens-the blue" and the red
some Of the original confusion was
eliminated, but another source OF
confusion was injected by the alb
sence OF any 'all clear" siren signal.
The original plan of leaving the AL
clear" to be announced on the radio
or, at night, by the turning on OF
street lights, proved obviously unsat-
isfActory.
The reason for omitting the all
clear" on the siren seems to have
been the advice by sound experts that
the sirens were limited to two dis
tinct signals, long one and 4 series
of short, warbling notes. II local au-
thorities could devise another one,
not to be confused with the blue"
and the red" it would be approved.
The authorities in Washington are
working along this line and their de-
cision is expected to be announced
soon.
This may be satisfactory. But
there has been too much disposition
to leave this and other protective
phases OF civilian defense to the local
authorities. We have lot Of GEARS"
now, but none is more needed than a
czar who can prescribe the basic rules
to be observed in air raids and insist
on uniform compliance everywhere.
II there Is the slightest danger of air
raids. and on this point the author
tiles themselves seem to hold differ
ent opinions, it is sad commentary
on our state Of preparedness that at
this late date we are still depending
on the originality and initiative OF
various. local authorities to- agree on
what the complete sat of signals
should be.

Hure-Roisinq Tale

A Victory gardener in New JERSEY
noticed rabbit in his plot. He had
just planted the seed, and there was
no immediate danger, but the gar
dener was ar-sighted. Undoubtedly
the intruder had come to case the
Joint, and would make its raid when
the time and the vegetables were
ripe. The gardener, a stickler for
legality, wrote some one for permis-
sion to destroy the animal.
The answer much delayed, was to
apply to the State Fish and Game
Commission. So he wrote the COM
mission for a permit to destroy six
rabbits, and was told, sometime
later, that he should ask the State
House. This he did, requesting a
license to destroy approximately
forty rabbits-and please hurry up,
because the beans were almost ripe.
From State House, in undue time,
came a form to fill out. Nature,
however, had waited for no red tape,
so the number Of bunnies now was in
the eighties, and they were almost
standing in line to take turns at the
garden. He filled out the form, and
eventually got the necessary death
warrant, but for the wrong amount.
The rabbit population had increased
to 158 and they were Just on the
verge of setting up some sort of a
ratloning system OF their own, 50
that each might have a fair share
OF the rapidly dwindling produce Of
the Defeat garden. Rabbits are no.
toriously fond Of cabbage. but It
appears that they thrive even better
on red tape.

A small bird with q necklace around
its neck is not as impossible As 1t sounds.
As matter of fact, We saw one the
other day.
1t was the Canada warbler, with 4
necklace Of black over its yellow neck.
The bird was flying In and out Of
large althea bush.
Nature had provided the Ornamental
tion, unusual enough to attract the at
tention OF any one.
This was the 5sth different bird seen
In the yard to date.
The Canada warbler, sometimes called
the necklaced warbler, or the Canada
necklace, Is 81 inches long.
The upper parts are pale slate-era
the under parts are yellow. The bill is
short and the wings pointed.
1t Is 4 typical warbler. The female
does not have such pronounced meek
lace"
This is great little bird for fitting
through shrubbery and vines.
AT this season, almost any small bird
in such position may be thought to be
Canada warbler, and II the necklace is
seen the identification is complete.
Another small one which likes shrub
berry is the Maryland yellow-throat.
This Is smaller bird, slightly below
inches in length, with upper parts
olive-green and lower parts yellow.
1t wears 4 sort OF black mask and Is
most easily identified by this, although
It's habit of peering out at one from the
leaves is another mark OF distinction.
Few OF the songsters have its exact
way OF looking out from the leaves at
the top Of a shrub.
This is the bird whose song is often put
IN words As "vitchery, witchery, WITCH
cry, witchery, witchery," with rising in
hection and emphasis.
The male Is the beauty Of the family
His waistcoAt u yellow, and his mask
velvety black, an altogether pleasing
combination.
The female yellow-throat 10 an olive
green bird, without the mask Her nest
Is favorite of the covbird, which likes
to put its eggs in her nest because she
does not know the difference between
them and her own. Often the yellow
throat feeds the young cowbirds while
neglecting her own.
AS pointed out here the other day. the
yellow-breasted chat, largest of the war
blers, does not fall for this confidence
game Of the cowbird. She knows the diff
ference, and will push the cowblrd eggs
out Of her nest
The name OF "chat' by the way, is an
interesting one. We are informed by q
reader interested in the derivation OF
words that it comes from chatter" re-
ferring to the song OF the bird.
This interested US, because 1t shows
how often the most common sense deri-
