that he is in Siam. Borneo, or Singe -

J. B. Priestley, son of a schooimas-
tter, born in 1894, was so recently
among us, that his ability to irritate
'from outspokenness must be still re-
membered. We read here:
I "The outbreak ofthe war found
him twenty years of age. He at once
enlisted and served till 1919 with the
Duke of Wellington's and Devon Re-
'giments. When demobilized, he went
to 'Trinity Hall, Cambridge, and then
came to see whether the streets of
London, and Fleet Street in particu-
lar, were really paved with gold.
"Atehrisk descriptive pen gave him
an almost instant success as a jour-
nalist, and 'Brief Diversions,' pub-
lished in 1922, and 'The English
Comic Characters' (1925) showed hian
to be an essayist andt critic of strik
fug quality. He wrote two novels,
e Adam in Moonlight' and 'Benighted,'
'which, same of his critics thought,
tditd not suggest that he had a 'big

"The anonymous author of 'The

der a thinly disguised name, and says
he caught Remarque's readers 'on the

Aldous Huxley, though not the
youngest, seems to rank as the en-
fant terrible of the group. He was
"He was educated at Eton and Bal-
liol, is short-sighted, six feet five
inches in height, and has said, 'I. do
not write for my readers.'
"His first published work was 'The
Burning Wheel; a volume ot poems
that saw tbe light during the war.
With each successive book he has
more deeply enchanted those who like
his work, more deeply antagonized
those who do not.
"J. B. Priestley found in him 'a
deepening grievance agaiust life'; but
his more virulhnt opponeuts would
suggest that he can have no grievance
against that which he has never -ap-
prehended. He is as squeamish as a
maiden vegetarian in a slaughter-
house,
'Since D. H. Lawrence's death, Al-
dous Huxley is probably the most
'banned' of authors. The' Alexandria
Book Club burned 'Antic. Hay'; 'Brave
New World,' which Bishop Hensley
Henson declared to bee 'repulsive,'
was banned by the 'Australian cus-
toms, and, more intelligently, by the
Irish Free State.
"His work is intensely idiosynerat-
ic, and an intelligent man must read
it whether he likes it or not."

"The Fountain" has made Charles
Morgan well known to American read-
ers. He was born in 1894, the same
year as Huxley and Priestley.
"Morgan was educated for the Roy-
al Navy, He served in the Atlantic
and on. the China station between
1911 and 1913, when he resigned, He
joined the. Navy again in 1914 and
served throughout the war. He is
now a dramatic critic.
,"Charles Morgan's reputation as a
novelist was very quickly made- It
rests on two books: 'Portrait in a
Mirror,' which -gained him the Fe-
mina -Vie Heureuse Prize in 1930, and
'The Fountain,' published last year.
Those who care may see in the two
titles something of the essence of
Morgan's work: something at once
crystalline and liquid, pure of dross,
and a little lacking in the lively ant
malculae that infest beverages less
immaculate,
"But anyone concerned for letters
is glad to know that The Fountain'
'was a great success in this country
and America."
REAL MEN
The real men dare and the real men
do.
They dream great dreams which they
make come true;
They bridge the rivers and link the
plains,
And gird the land with their railway
trains.
They make the desert break forth in
bloom,
And send the cataract through the
Mime,
To turn `the wheels of a thousand'
mills„
And bring the coin to a Nation's tills.
The real men work and the real men
plan,
And, helping themselves, help their
fellowman.
And the sham men yelp at their car-
riage wheels.
As the small dog barks at the big
dog's beets.

Ireland Establishes
Bird Sanctuaries
Rapid Development of
Humane Treatment to all
Animals Throughout
Island
Dublin.—Mr. G, Bernard Shaw is
alife member of the Irish Society
for the Protection of Birds, which is
at present busy trying to foster the
establishment of bird sanctuaries in
various parts of Ireland.
The sanctuary set up on the North
Buil Island; Dollymount, in 1931, was
the first on Irish soil. 1n its report
for 1432, the society, says with regard
to this haven of refuge, "The birds,
themselves have, of course, lost no
time in discovering a fact so im-
portant to their well-being, and by
their remarkable tameness now lend
a great ,,harm to the sanc:l:ary, well
repaying the Dublin public for the
kindness it has shown them."
Two great perils against which the
Weds of Ireland have to be guarded
are the raids of "unscrupulous
wholesale collectors" and the "un•
ceasing efforts" to supply English
dealers with the song birds which
British law forbids them to 'capture
in their own country. The chief
sufferers are goldfinches. The rescue'
of several hundreds of these birds
when about to be aent out of the
country is described in the society's
cast report.
While legislation in the Irish Free.
State perhaps lags, Northern Ireland
has what, is believed to be the most
drastic bird protection measure
hitherto adopted in any land. The
bids was passed unanimously in 1931.
Under it, nearly all non game birds
are protected throughout the year
and the taking of their eggs is also
forbidden.
In regard to the prevention of
cruelty to animals, Dublin reports
steady and satisfactory progress, Its
hardest fight at present is against
the export of live horses to Belgium
and France. Recently a tax of about
2d. (4 cents) a pound has been im-
posed on Imported meat by both
these countries. Consequently there
has been a tendency for the export
of live animals to increase.
Under the auspices of the Dublin
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals inspectors now watch
the loading of each consignment.
The number of horses shipped, and
their destination, Is reported to the
Internaticnal League against the Ex-
port ot Horses for Butchery, whose
headquarters is in London. This en-
ables the boats to be met on their
arrival, and constitutes some check
on what happens to the animals after-
ward,
The Dublin society now has a
donkey show each year. The prizes
are awarded not merely en the
general appearance of the animals
on the day of the show but also on
the way they have been looked after
during the three months before the
„
day" itself.
Most of the donkeys are bought by
street hawkers from the "tinkers"
or gypsies at the Smithfield Market.
Expert advice is now provided free
by the society to help buyers cir-
cumvent the share practice which
has been too common in the past.
As in previous years, the Dublin
S, P. C. A. has a stand at this year's
spring show. Au account is given in
last year's report of how those in
charge of the stand suffered, gladly
an invasion of hordes of children.
An encouraging number of the
children slipped pennies into the
collecting box. "One very small per-
son," tbe report says, "with whom
pennies were probably scarce, came
twice to the box, slipped the penny
'tali in, and, her heart failing her,
took it out again, But her wish to
'help the animals' was stronger than
the desire to keep the penny and
the thtrd visit saw the gift made."
Including the Dublin society, there
are now 13 S. P. C. 4,'s in Ireland.
Among their activities are dogs' and
Cats' homes, inspection of the cattle.

New Type of Banana Found;
Trinidad Sees Boost in Trade
Port of Spain, Trinidad.—The dis'
covery of a new type of banana here
is expected to make economic his:'
tory in Trinidad.
Thomas Potter, the secretary of
the Agricultural Society, told an audi-
ence here the banana was of the same
family as the local Canary Islands
banana and was immune to "Panama
disease," but was the same size and
-color as the Jamaica banana.
It promises 'to meet all require-
ments of the export trade and is
described as the "banana of the fu-
ture." A government committee re-
cently recommended a grant of £2,-

the colony. The Tropical College is
now experimenting to find the best
