Picturesque "Home" fur Wild Life in Franco There has been constituted in the south of Prance a national reserve for wild Life which, in some ways, IS the most picturesque natural home for bird and beast to be found in Europe. It is situated on the Camargue, the Is- land famous in .oid French history and legend and well known to visitors to Arles in Provence. Really the delta of the River Rhone, entirely formed by alluvial deposits, it is in great part a savage region of marsh and I prairie. The Societe Natiobale d'Acelima- ttation, 'which has charge of the re- serve, protects about 50,000 acres as tenant, and it 1s proposed to increase the area ultimately to 100,000 acres. Even after a relatively short experi- ence, however, it has been observed that the migratory birds ,of many species which have always ` used the island as a landing station are in- creasing in numbers. For many it is the last hopping -of place for Africa. Besides every sort of wild duck in immeasnrable ' numbers --storks, her- ons and ' egrets—there are many rare birds which cannot be seen elsewhere in Europe. Perhaps the most aston- ishing are the pink flamingoes, which are to be found in flocks of' 8,000 or 4,000 together. Little -Known Men Who Are Worthy of Honor It is suggested that a statue be erected to the 'memory of the man who first introduced the orange to Great Britain. Japan already has a statue to its first orange bringer. France has put up a statue to Marie Harel, the inventor of Camembert cheese; and Offen:burg, in Germany beasts a statue to Sir Francis Drake for bringing the potato from the New world to the Old. But nobody knows who brought • the oranges to Britain. They came from Spain about the year 1290, but beyond that there is no rec- ord. The first man to import oranges in quantity was l3enjatatn Bovill, a London fruit broker, the centenary of whose death recently occurred. The mark who first brought bananas to Britain is Just as worthy of a statue is anyone connected with oranges.. Worthiest, perhaps, of any is Sir Bich- and Weston, who flourished in the ?saga of Charles L Though very few people have heard of him it was he who introduced turnips, dower and other sown grasses Into Britain and So laid the foundation of modern asri- course: London Mail. • Blinds Not "Venetian" Venetian blinds, now becoming pop - alar in America, are not, and never were, really Venetian, Bowe and Field ears, "While the roller shade is purely an American laceration, the use of vene- tian blinds, or tilting slats, dates back nearly 309 years to the West Indies," the article says. 'The blinds now to Pse are quite similar, but with added improvements. Apparently there is no authoritative information as to why they are called venetian. Careful ro- search shows that they were not seen in Venice until many years atter they had been in use elsewhere. It bas been suggested, however, that they Any have been invented by a Vene- tian trader making his home in the West Indies and named In his honor." The Three of Thein' The following incident is reported by Mrs. A. M. G.: "A little five-year-old girl was added to my class last Sunday, and when the lady who brought her introduced her to nie she said,: 'She was born in Bgypt.' "1 thought no more about it, and when class work began, I told the lit- tle tots about Moses. The little new- comer said she had heard about Moses; and then, to interest her, X said, 'Moses was a Jew, but he was born in Egypt,' "Yes,' exxclaimei the new child, 'all three of uswere born in Egypt: my sister, and I, and Moses.' "—Kansas City Star. Make Life a Battle Young people like to be doing things.. A keen student of youth has said that the average young person gets a far greater thrill out of hewing his own pathway through the world than in rolling along in a luxurious car over a roadway that other hands have pre- pared. But, after all, no one can wholly remove from us all responsi- bility or fight all our battles for us. Nobody has a right to find life unin- teresting or unrewarding who sees within the sphere of his own activity a wreng he can help to remedy, or within himself an evil he can hope to overcome.—Montreal Family Herald. Says New Buildings Ungodly "There ib a Saying that God Made the country acid the devil Made the towns," said Sir `.Phomas Comyn-Platt in an address before the council for the preservation of Rural 1i ngland, lin %radon recently. "When I walk in London and see the buildings they *re ereeting I can quite believe they are not the work of the Almnighty. Eng- land owes everything to the country."
