Great Brit ain started the movement with bird sanctuaries, and America followed. The first wild life- sanctuary in the United States was Yellowstone Na tional park. In Africa the movement hits taken popular hold. Many types of wild life have become practically extinct, as for instance, the seacow, biggest of amphibians, and the bus tard, not to forget the elephant ifl certain countries.

Politicians are much the same in all countries, and it would not do for the United States to assume that it has a better article than France. We have plenty of men in public life who would be as ready as the leaders of French political parties to fish in troubled waters. But, putting aside all odious comparisons of that sort, it is plain that the great need of France at the present moment is to present to her own citizens and to the world a government that is not only strong but stable. It will have to face at once the most exacting tasks. There must be payment or refunding of large debts soon falling due. The budget must be balanced and kept balanced. Assurance will have to be given that the problems of French currency will be kept in skilled and firm hands. All these duties require a cabinet with a tenure of office not at the mercy of fluctuating and turbulent groups in the chamber. There is just as much need of a patriotic “sacred union” of all political parties in France today as there was when the war made the life of the nation seem to hang by a thread. With reason the word oftenest on the lips of Frenchmen since the war has been the word “security.”- But it should now be sup plemented by the word “stability.” French governments under the republic have been notoriously short-lived. The last two have had periods of power longer than the average. But it would be unfortunate if there now were to be the return of a rapid succes sion of French premiers, passing like embarrassed phantoms. If France needs some guarantee of international peace, she also needs political tranquility at home, and this she herself can make certain if only the strife of parties is shamed and silenced in the presence of the great national exigencj'. If the naming of this or that man to form a ministry means only the temporary gratification of individual ambition, the out side world will feel little reassurance. There was a Frenchman once who wished his epitaph to be, “Let my name be abominated, provided France is free.” Something of that spirit may yet mani fest itself in the French politicians of today, in whose hands for the time being is the fate of France. Home Furnishing If you have a highly decorative vail paper, with a large, over-all de !ign, you can make it appear an tique by giving it a coat of orango shellac. The shellac at the same time preserves the life of the paper. “Exact Language." From the New York World. Because newspapers in Paris were disturbed by certain remarks of Mr. Cooiidge's, and because nobody knew, sctually, what the president had said, the French ambassador in Washington is now cabling to Paris ‘the exact language used * • * at the White House, Friday, after the resignation of Premier Herriot.” So the Associated Press reports. There exists, of course, a record of “the exact language used at the White House” after all these newspaper con ferences in which the president ex presses his views on current issues. Regular air service were operated in Sweden for the first time during 1924. AH of these were on a summer sched ule, and included services between Mal ma and Hamburg, Stockholm and Hel singfors, and Malmo and Copenhagen. Although regular schedules were fol lowed on all three lines, most of the traftlc was on th eCopenhagen route, over which 246 trips were made and 2. 52S passengers carried. The fact that on January 1, 1925, there were 293 pri vate individuals in Sweden in pos session of licenses for operation of airplanes is an indication of the In terest that has been aroused in civilian air services. There are no true wolves in Africa although large Jackals In Abyssinia and the Sudan are sometimes known as wolves. This record consists of a stenographic report of the questions put to the president by the correspondents and the president’s replies. But no part of this record Is ever given to the public, f the president is to stake the administration to a stand on some such important issue as the French debt, a disarmament conference or revision in the tariff, it is assumed a more statesmanlike performance for the reporters, instead of quoting the president from the record and over his own name, to Invent a mysterious personage called "a White House spokesman” or “a high administrative circle” and attribute to that dignitary what they can remember of the president's remarks. Mr. Robert Choate, Washington cor respondent of so good an administra tion paper as the Boston Herald, re ports that with "the most powerful publicity outlet ever known to any man” the president’s conference sys tem is "misleading, productive of little information and wholly inade quate.” In Mr. Choate’s opinion, an opinion with which other correspond ents agree, “the no-quotations rule places all the responsibility on the writers and none on the president. If the Interpretation does not please him he can repudiate it, as was done in the Jusserand case when the presi dent said one thing to the newspaper men one day and quite the reverse in an official statement the next, after Ambassador Jusserand had squealed to the state department. Beware the Armed Banker! From the Wichita Beacon.

Temporary handling and transportation facilities have replaced those destroyed by the quake; raw silk conditioning and trading conveniences have been restored; and banks and commercial companies have returned to the city. The Vienna Hofburg, once the city resdence of the emperors of Austria, Is now in the hands of renting agents. Alternations have been made In the large edifice, and today It offers 127 living apartments and forty-five busi ness offices.

The psychology of the system will change the attitude of tho banker towards the protection of his insti tution. He can no longer contem plate the indemnity company as the defender and protector of his inter ests. He must take the initiative. A grim thing has come into it—the same thing that in the early days created the vigilance committees. Only this modern movement, instead of taking law into its own hands, Joins hands with established law through the deputizing of each armed bunk defender as an officer of the law. It is the old vigilance committee standardized and modern ized. Our prediction is that it’s go ing to reduce bank robberies and restore low rates in Indemnity insur ance.

Caring for Ant Eggs Is New Occupation Attention has lately been called to two unsuspected, if not brand new, trades—that of the professional dinner getter-up, who arranges testimonial banquets at so much n plate, and that of the seif-avowed principal of a bal lot-fixing school, with JO pupils, in an office building. Even less known Is the occupation of caring for ant eggs, the New York Times says. / It would take a great many ants to keep one man busy all the time, yet, by and large, enough work is given to this task in New York to represent a considerable total of tabor hours in a year. The nut egg needs to be cod dled, though not in the culinary sense. It has a reputation for temperament, deserved or not. It comes by the mil lion in paper packages. Japanese and Ciiinese stores carry tills commodity. “It is very good,” says the Japanese, “for soft-bill birds.” But who has any soft-bill birds in New York? The Jap anese shrugs and bobs. “It is very good also,” he says, “for goldfish. But not too much.” Love May Yet Be Put on Scientific Basis Tlie matrimonial reports of our day lire undertaking to put love on a1 sound, scientific busis. Let us skip a few hundred years and behold the syn thetic romance of youth and a maid of some generations to come. The young man, armed with a stethoscope, n tape measure and the means of making a blood test, got* to call upon the lady whose charms have attracted him, ventures the Toledo Blade. lie tnps a vein, listens to the thump of her heart nnd to the wind whistling through her bront-bial tubes, and ends his labors with a careful examination of the soles of her feet. Satisfied with the showing, he makes a request for a kiss and obtains one, duly liygienlzed through a strainer whipped from a vanity bag. That Is, he does unless the young woman wal lops him instead.
