BULLETINS FROM BIRDLAND

Wmrrnslilz. vartseir"

NAMING BIRDS

Either looks, habits, or voice supplied the ornithologists with names for most of our birds. We readily understand th-at the Har- lequin Duck was so called on ac- count uf its marry strange mark- ings; the Barn Owl likes to nest in holes in barns; the Mourning Dove has a plaintive call. How- ever. you may have thought some of the namts queer, though irr reality scientists gave them to do honour to a great Offil-IIDOIOZISI, to preserve the identity of the per- son by whom the species was dis- covered. or to indrioate the dis- tricvt where it was first seen.

Alexander Wilson has been spoken of as “the father of Am- erican bird study." Born h!

Scotland in 1766, he came to this side of the Atlantic at the age of 28, and in the early part of the 19th century set out on his first excursion, which included Niagara Falls, resolved on mak- ing a collection of birds. Not only did he write about birds, but made many fine drawings of them. Nine of his volumes have been published. Now we under- stand uilry a Warbler, a Thrush, a Snipe, a Petrol, and various other birds found on this continent have been given the name “Wil- son."

Only about twenty years young- cr, and working on t-hc same sub- JCCL at much thc same period, was a native of France to wihom bird levers owe far more than they mlay realize. Johrn James Audubon, a pioneer in conserva- LlDli, spent many years in study- ing and painting birds irr their natural surroundings. TllillS was at a time when other people were despoilrng nature. His wonder- iuii, life-like pictrurcs depict all thc birds of America know-n in his day, including species since (minor: as the Girurt Auk and thc Passenger‘ Pigeon. One of hi-s explorations took him to the wild coast of Labrador and the Gull of Si. Lawrence, Little did Audrubon guts-s that a society “with hun- ctredrs of branches and thousands of mcrnlbers would bear his name, and magazines and bird's be call- ed afller ‘him.

The Blaokiburnian Warbler goes by the name of the man who found it. The Philadelphia Vireo, and the Nashville, Tennessee, and Cape May Warblers al-l have thc names of the places wh-elre they ilftli. ‘happened to be seen, even though these Warblers seldom even pass through th-ose districts. The Connecticut Warbler, how- ever, actualiy shows itself rcg- ularly in that stale irr late sum- ITICI’.

Next time you are puzzled by the name of a bird, remember that there is generally some good rcason why it is carried by that particular species.

“ORUO SPEOIIILS” ! !

"Mercy Iiiiling." More and more people are coming to discuss the Plshtness or wrongness of this practice and as the discussions multiply scme fundamental truths which make all the difference rn

thc solutlcn tcud to be ome sub- merged by superficial considera- trons.

Is it. right by drugs or other med_ ucal moans to hasten the death of the incurable or thc insane? Doc- tors who advocate this practice. particularly those who would re- quire the patients or the pareufis consent, are not without sympathi- zers among the laity. Indeed the Euthanasia Society oi America. Inc.. has as its purpo=e to secure a. legal. status for this practice.

As the proponents of Euthanasia see it, to force physically; and mentally defective persons who are certainly incurable to a pm- longed life of misery and suf cr- mg is pointless, if not cruel. Would it not he more humane and merciful to release them painless- ly from their life or‘ agony? Or are we to refuse to man the alleviation from pain that we customarily grant to the animal? To wi lrhold this blessing from the incurable person is to impose urbcarable physical, mental and financial burdens ulpon his family and upon society as well. Certainly, the more sensible and happier solution for all concerned is to administer to such unfortuuates, a painless death.

There is something attractive about this argument. Having the same plausibility that appeals in humanitarlanism, it might convince most rmeu were it not evidently rrreconrilbie with some basic truths.

The first of thesl» brrsic truths is that God, as the Creator of the universe, has supreme dominion over all things. In the m“; 51,50. lute sense, everything belongs to Him, including the human life of each individual. winch is also l-Iis creation and over which l-Ic alone possesses supreme nrastvry‘. As He alone vlln give life, He alone hag thc unqualified right to take it away,

From this it follows that no hu- man agency can riaun an absolute right over human life. If an tdivi- dual is sometimes justified in taking the life of another, it is only insofar as this extremity appears a necessary measure of self-de- fense agnirst an unjust stacker. if the state possesses authority to deprive human beings of life, this authority is limited by the e igen- cies of its own safety and can be exercised only against urjust ag- gressors as in war or against crim- inals. But directly to take the li‘e of an innocent person, oven with his consent, lies beyond the sc;pe

lto take direct action against the life of the innocent. Right reason .wlrich can only classify such an action as murder, sees that it falls under the divine prohibition: Thou shall nut kill. For what crime have the aged and the incurable and the insane committed that de- serves and justifies a premature death at the hands of a physician?

The main weakness in the case for Euthanasia is thus its opposi- tion both to the natural law of reason and to the divine law.

This consideration outwel hs any argument: based on the physi- cal, mental and financial incon- veniences thrust upon the family or society by the prolongation of life o! sufferers whom "mercy- killing” purports t.o relieve.

In fart, the argumert for Biathl- nasla, involves a. deplorably un- christian attitude toward suffering, as it fails to recognize man's super- natural destiny and the part suf- fering can play in his sanctlfica- lllCfi. It underestimates man's ca- ‘pacity for patient suffering, assist- ccl by God's grace; passes over |thc value oi suffering as penance and as temporal punishment. for

ones moral failings; rrrinimizes the pcwer of faith and prayer to draw ldown divine aid even in despairing ‘cases; does not understand that the Communion of Saints turns ,hu‘man suffering into so many opportunities to benefit spiritually ones fellowmen. These vital truths of Christianity, for those who do not subscribe to a materialistic philosophy of- life, profoundly weaken the argument for Euha- nasia.

Human hie ls the creator's gift. and the supreme mastery over it. is His, not man's. To destroy this gift is the right neither of man nor of the state. Their duty is rather" to conserve life by the employ- ment of all reasonable nreans.

Especially is this the obligation or‘ the medical profession. Every incurable patient. is a challenge to thc doctor's science a d art and it. is by meeting such a challenge that medical science will advance. Surely. to use medical science to destroy lite runs counter to the purposes of that noble profession.

And what ii human sufferirg does constitute a problem? God has Ills reasons for permitting it, reasons. moreover. which do not in the least compromise His goodness Indeed. is it not reasonable to ex- pect to encounter some mystery vrnen ire attempt to comprehend God's unsearchable ways?
