mgugh not so durable-substitute, I have found nothing better than the thick corrugated paper pack- mg used to protect fragile articles in transit through the mail. 1f this i; cemented into the botwm of the insect box. and the insect pins are thrust into the rib of the paper, it will be found that there is sufli- eient grip, to hold the a, cimens firmly in place. If preferred a lheet of white paper may be super- imposed to hide the corrugated . packing. Personally I do not rec- ommend the “Rikker Mount." in which- the insects are bedded in cotwn wool Chatting") It looks pretty, but is apt to pull of! the intects legs and other append- age", when the specimen is removed for examination.’ , This hint may prove ‘valuable to scholars who are preparing insects for the Central School Fair.

REVIVAL 0F FAIDONBY

To the magazine "Natural His-

tory" of June 1935. Professor George G. Goodwin, of the American Museum, New York, contributes a capital article on the revival of falconry or ‘hawking’ in Great Britain. Hawking was a national sport in Britain from Norman times down through the Middle Ages, and it was the invention and perfecting oi the hand-gun “that leads to its decline as a pastime. ‘There is. of course. no reason why it" should mt regain its place in the field sports of the present day: and in Scotland. where same is plentiful arid where there is a great extent of suitable moorland. hawk- ing is being revived with consider- able success. It is niended that the game is not driven away from the regions where falcons are used. and there are no crippled birds "to escape and die by degrees. for the quarry is either killed outright ‘or goes soot-free. In both instances the art compares favorably with the practice of gunnery.

rulcons must be subjecied to

training. the object oi which is to render them obedient. In Holland the adult migrant hawks are caught, while in Scotland the young are taken from the nest; the lat- ter are referred to as "eyess fal- cons." The ‘eycss falcons have not the dash and style of the adult hawks. so the falcorier begins his training by placing the young on a ll‘f ln an open basket. feeding them with fresh meat tied to a board: and interfering with them as little as possible. The wilder they set the better hawks they are like- ly to be. For fully three weelu they have freedom, but as soon as they kill for themselves, they must be taken in for training.

At this time a soft leather hood

is placed on the bird's head. cover- ing the eyes, and “lesser-short. strips of leather-are futened round the legs. above the feet. The Jess- es are joined by a swivel, to which is attached the leash, fastened to a block. A‘ tiny bell is attached to each foot, above the leases; the object is to let the hawker know what the hawk is doing. particul- arly if lost, since the tintle oi the bells can be distinctly heard for more than a quarter of a mile. Carrying is the most important _factor in training so the 51m is 611N164. on a glofcd hand. for as many hours as possible each "day. The trainer at this time must,en- desvour to win the hawkb ccmfl- dencc. which act demands unlimit- ed patienoc rince these birds y." among the wildest and shyest in existence.

Kelly, relating clt-onologlcally the incidents leading to the find- ing of Miss How's body the night oi Sept. 1i. said llrank Catalano, Rogers’ chauffeur, met him and Rogers at Philadelphia and drove to the farmhouse early Sept. 11.

Kelly said they set off aorne fia- crackers after sleeping late in the morning. subsequently. Kelly ro- lated, he and Rogers wentflo the living room. . .

"I heard what I thought was a firecracker and I thought Miss Hoey must be up to those tricks again."

In a 10w voice, Kelly said ‘Mr. Rogers mentioned something about I a gun. He ran upstairs." The witness then quoted Rogers as saying "she's done it." “Did Miss Hoey give you an! ason for wanting money?‘ Parke lied

The witness replied in the nega- tive, adding that he offered to glvd her what he had. but she declined.
