Although we have not thought the pew, pie of Atrica to be much concerned about clothe?, arid fashionS, yet styles, such as they are, have entered the villages of the dark continene and are beginning to cause the peopte much anxiety. Miss Pearl Mulliken, Atethodlet missionary to Rhodesia, writes of the Africau dress as seen in a day school, according to the Centenary Bulletin. 'Many of the pupils, who range from the kindergarten age to grandparents, are dressed in store clothes. Their store clothes, however, have largely teat their identity beneath a covering of many col- ored patches.

But eometimes tlie big boys are quite generous with their little brothers and divide with them; such is the case of one little fellow who is the proud possessor of a vest which about covers him. Two or three others wear their brother's shirts, which is quite sufficient for all purposes. "Some of the girls are dressed princi- pally in beads. brass bracelets and ank- lets; while others have cloth draped around them forming a skirt and they are without a waist, One girl wears a silk waist with a dirty calico skirt.

It certainly does seem unfair that man, having sur- passed all feathered creatures in the art of flying, should take up a merci- less ahase of theni in their own ele- ment, the air. Besides, the flarniugo is a remark- ably interesting bird. It is a sort of low -comedy -bird, walking, as it were, on stilts., and with an enormously long neck. In "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" it figures amusingly. It is a tropical bird, ranging as fax south as southern Brazil, In the Old Worla it is found (though of other varieties) in ehe equatorial belt of Africa. .Perhaps the only rival of the flam- ingo as a low -comedy bird is the peli- can, with its absurdly enormous bill that carries a pouch beneath for the accommodation of eaptured fish. The pelican, happily, has been res- cued from threatened exterminatioa by the Audubon societies, through whose influence the U. S. Govern- ment wrve persuaded to protect their principal breeding grounds by setting aside the latter as inviolable "re- fuges." Most important of these breeding geounds was a tiny island in the Mos- quito Inlet, Plorida—a mud fiat of less than four acres ---more or less overgrown -with sat grass and man- groves. There a once-numerbus col - any of brown pelicans was almost ex- terminated by egg -hunters and Oleg - ad sportsmen who shot the birds "for fun." To -day, thanks to protection since 3003, the pelicans have geeatly in- creased in nunibers, extending their "rookery" to nearby islets, nobody disturbs) them, and the place has be- come a delightful attraction to tourists.

Not only is this true, but each bird fam- ily has its-owa habitat or favorite locally, such as high treetops, marshes, deep woods, or orchids; so you may often name a bird by the place, as well as bY the company, he keeps. : 'When you think how many, many birds there are—land birds, water birds, birds of the ah, birds of the tropics, of the sea- sbore, oe the Arctic regions—you maY re- alize how helpful even a slight knowledge of the most important bird families is; Cor, otherwise,we should never be able to remember- them, once identified. Every one in the Mir teeter 'United States knows our cheery robin redbreast, who is an own cousin to the bluebird, ae well RS to the thrushes. There is little resemblance among them in dress, but the former lave live in much Lhe same lo- calities, and the songs of all three have something of the same lovelinees, though that of the thrush is considered the sweetest. Whether you hive in town or country, you have met at least one member of the sparrow family; so you should be able to recognize other sparrows nearly any- where, for they dress very much alike, in coat of Quaker brown and gray, with a white vest -beneath. The largest mem- ber of this family is the fox sparroW, whose coat is sometimes a bright red- Clieh brown, with large red -brown spots along the sides of his vest. This is a. large family, including perhaps eighteen different sparrows found in the United States, :besides the dear little goldfinehes, the bright cardinal of the south, as well as the rose -breasted grosbeak of the north. If you have observed goldfinches closely, you may have noticed that they aro seed eaters; so you will not bo surprised to learn that other seed -eating birds belong to the big sparrow family —among them a number ne onr winter birds, suchhsthe purple finches, cross b - jull.snowbirds, and the quaint little se0s. -There is ono group Which I always call the meadoW family, as so many of its members live in grassy fields and mead- ows. The correct name is Icteridae, and our bobelinks, red winged blackbirdS, meadow larks, orioles, and grackles be- long here. Of course it is quite proper to call them ecterias.e—if you can re- member it; but, if not,. jest say the meadow family, and they will not mind. Nearly all of them have some gay Mark- ing or patch of bright color, which har- monizes well with the sunlight and blos- soms of their meadow homes and gives the birds a. haPPY, dressed -up feeling. Of course you have the swallow fam- ily? Some of the swallows do not stop at Florida., but go on to 'Central Amer- ica, or even further. They can do this Perfectly well, since they have no trunks to pack and no train schedules to con- sider. However, they love the north best, and prove it by returning every spring to bring up their children there. They are friendly 'birds, and all of them —bank, barn, cliff, tepe swallow, and purple martin—seem to prefer to nest near human beings, as if they liked company.

During the war there was an lame - cant demand for sponges. Hospitals in England and France, the auto service, the 'uniform cloth, even the rotators' shoee demandea the sponge. Every business/however remotely con- nected with the war, called for a sponge, And in aadition its is claimed that practically every business "car- rying on" in "allied" countries tar Iran the front, kept "the wheelrun- ning" by means of a sponge. It fell to the honor of the Bahama. Islands, a Britisn colony of the West Indies, to supply the sponge to the hospitals and all other war neecle. The story of the Hallam, sponge from ,1914 till the war ended is, indeed, the story of a business pushed to the • limit of production. Froni early mora- ine till late at night the "sponge" literally took possession of much of the waterfront ot Nassau, and every morning caw new "beds" of sponge carefully laid. out on the floor of "the sponge excliange" to meet the search- ing inspection of the wholesale buy- ers. The rumble of the eponge-carts threading their way up and down Bay street, the main thoroughfare of Nas- sau, was one or the etreet sounds familiar as the noise of street cars elsewhere. Every waft or "the trades" rattling the needs in "the wonien.'n tongue" trees brought also to the ear the sharp high soprano "slip, clip" or the trimmers' Shears, All nature thought in terms of the sponge. The grocery man, the dry gocds merchant, the landlord, "ad- vanced" goods or rented thotises and. rooms subjected to the buyer's or rent- er's standing on the sponge "stales" of the representative sponge houses. "The sponge fleet" came to anchor in its entirety once more in Nassau harbor during the winter season, and that was for Christmas clay. surely, stopping whenever they choose, to find feed' and reat. The warblers vary hisize from 4% to 51% inches in length; and, as they flit shyly about high in the leafy treetops, their bright colors blend so well With the foliage and sun- shine that may persons are not at all aware of their presence. This la a pity for they are interesting little birds with - meet songs and dainty, attractive ways. In face, all birds are interesting, once one begins to get acquainted with them. There is no easier way to know them well than to think of them as divided hito big, distinct families, like human ones, and then try to group your new bird acquaintances, as, you meet them, into the families where they belong.
