Thursday morning, by F. G. Collins, assistant curator of the museum. The reason lor Mr. Kiclie's col lection of birds was presented In an Interesting way by Mr. Collins. It seems that he, Mr. Kiche. grew up In New Jersey with "a happy love of the birds, and animals and plants around him." The day came when he was old enough to possess a gun, and his first tro phies were a pair of Hudsonian godwtts, shore birds, which are not often seen these days. Becsme Bird Lover One might have thought that Mr. Biehe would have grown to be a mere hunter aud killer of birds, but words spoken by ore of James Fcnlmore Cooper's characters propheclng (hat many o.' tho bird and animals of that day were de stined to disappear in consequence of the changes coming over this beautiful virgin country changed the bovs' motives for hunting. He began to desire to possess a record of "these beautiful objects which every year were becoming rsrer and surely passing out of exist ence." The idea grew and later as i the sporty lad grew up he pursued li systematically. C.IHne Answers Inquiries In onenlnr his talk, Mr. Collins spoke, in reply to some Inquiries i which he had received from some ! of his regular radio audience, re-, gardlng the price of White's Nat ural History of Selborne. He then pointed out the value of having this book around where children, t who were eager to read, might see j It. He showed how beneficial this I sort of an education would be in I teaching young folks the beauty of wild life, and the need of preserv ing It. He then used the case of Mr. L'lche to Illustrate the point. While he was still a boy, Mr. Eiche's parents moved to Lincoln. Mr. Elche has been one of the most active of Lincoln's business men. but for thirty-five years he has devoted his leisure time to completing the record of the van ishing loveliness around him. Rexardless of many offers from dealers and museum, Mr. Elche has held on to his treasure hoping all the time that the university museum started some years ago by i Dr. E. H.

Says Spsoimsns Are Vsluable. Regarding the priceless gift Mr. Collins said. "One thing Is cettnln, It. will become more valuablu every year. I had the value of a speci men of nn extinct bird Impressed upon me a few years ago in the university museum at Oxford In England. This world famous treas ure was In an air-tight but the specimen Itself was J,i a shabby looking bill of a bird, a leg nnd one or two other bits, thlnss that un less you knew their story, you would think only fit for the ash can "That sorry specimen Is one of the mot valuable specimens of the I museum and would be so In any ' museum inat could secure It. It Is I almost all that remains In the ' world of the dodo, the bird that i once abounded In the island of t Mauritius.
