Giraffe Favored Pet Since Caesar’s Time| Chicago, March 31.—(AP)—The giraffe has been regarded with awe and even affection by kings and com- moners down through the centuries, Dr. Berthold Laufer, curator of an- thropology of the Field Museum of Natural History, reveals in a book on “The Giraffe in History and Art.” The first. of the long-necked crea- tures arriving in France a century ago had a marked effect on fashions;| Dr. Laufer says. It was glorified in poems and paintings and even be- came a political symbol. Chinese emperors of the fifteenth century treasured live giraffes pre- sented to them as gifts. Julius Caesar in 46 B.C. proudly displayed Rome's first giraffe in a tri- umphal procession. Ann de Baeujeu, daughter of Louis XI of France, in 1489. im- portuned Lorenzo de Medici for a giraffe he had in his menagerie at Florence, but the Mediccan refused to part with the animal. The cost of the creatures has mounted ftom $1,500 or $2,000 be- fore the war to between $5,000 and $7,500 now, Dr. Laufer revealed, Coast Guard Doctors © | Aid French Fishermen, Bostop, March 31.—(AP)—Two} medical men are members of the} staffs of the coast guard cutters!

Chicago Air Beacon to Be Ready in July Chicago, March 31.—(AP)—-An aerial beacon 520 feet above street level and visible for 100 miles on a clear night will be operating in Chicago in July, Walter Greenebaum, Chicago banker and donor of the light, says. Work of installing the beacon on the top of a loop skyscraper has started. It. will consist of 24 units of Neon tubes, rising 45-feet above the top of the building. The tower of light will be so arranged as to give the same effects when ap- proached from any direction. Greenebaum studied aerial bea- cons in sitdeg before deciding upon the Chicago light. He says several other cities are planning similar beacons but. are waiting to sce how the one here works. Reaction in Radio “Halts ‘Bull’ Market | attractive color combinations.

They are: That the treaty be open to the accession of all governments of the world to come into force only after “universal acceptance,” unless the powers which had signed or acceded “should agree upon its coming into force, despite certain abstentions.” ~ That if one signatory. state “should fail to keep its word,” other signatories be released automatically from their engagement “with respect to the offending state.” 3.

He was astonished to hear on the morning of March 18, the cheerful ‘song of a robin. It seemed impossible but there sat the bird in a tall cottonwood announc- ing his arrival. The weather hed been cold, the ground was mostly snow covered, and the tree spar- peal week or more ahcad of the robins had‘ not been seen. Two robins had been reported at Wahpeton March 17 by Mrs. J. E, Cain, and meadowlarks near Fargo March 18 by W. E. Brentzel. The writer heard the _meadowlarks March 20, On both March 18 and 20 he thought he heard a faint tree sparrow note but had aboat given them up when he located two very quiet birds in the morning of the 20th. Mr. Monson et Argusville re- ported a single tree sparrow and a meadowlark on March 18, A moye- ment among the crows was also noted. | group to arrive and what becomes of them? It would be interesting to know more about them. There cannot be many, for frequently one lor two are seen and then not again for several days. It is gen- erally considered that the first to arrive are our own nesting birds. those bound for farther north pas through quite a little later. It entirely probable that the ones seen have not found their exact location and are more or less lost although in the right locality. Birds Return Each Year Numerous records show that birds do return to nest at the same place year after year. It seems ap- location by the houses, trees, etc., with which they became familiar during daily experiences of the pre- vious summer.
