UHL PARIS, Oct. 22.—Tourists' pen- nies are helping to keep the wolf from the door of some of France's most magnificent chateaux. Hard times have hit prince and | marquis just as heavily as every- one else and some of France’s| jmost famous country homes are falling into ruin because their own- ers can't afford to keep them up. | Now an association of chateau | owners has been formed whereby | tourists may visit these private | | dwellings at certain times on pay- ment of a slight fee. The money | goes toward keeping plumbing in order and walls from tumbling down. British Follow Suit It has worked so successfully that a similar association may be form- ied in England to help the lordly owners of some of Britain's state- ly houses. Called the “most aristocratic trade union in the world,” the | French association was founded by the owners of chateaux to defend their own interests and to pre- serve for France a tourist asset |that was being threatened with | oblivion. The chief qualification is to own a chateau, preferably with historic interest, and to be ready to throw |it open to the public. In return the owner is supplied with funds |for the upkeep of the place and | sometimes even gets tax advances and the right to keep his estate intact for himself and his heir. Guard Coffee Hours Funds are raised by subscription and by the collection of 50 cen- times (about three and a half cents) from each visitor. Some of the proceeds pay expenses of the organization. Naturally chateau owners have no desire to have their coffee on the terraces interrupted by visitors, so definite times have been assign- ed to sightseers. There are more than 60 chateaux in the neighborhood of Paris which can now be visited. Many of them | never have been open to the pub- | lic. P ISP TR X {MAINE NATURALIST . IS PUZZLED OVER WHERE EAGLES GO WISCASSET, Maine, Oct. 22— Where do the bald-headed eagles of the New England coast fly, | once they spread their wings? ! James E. Stinson, noted natural- ist, has sought to solve the prob- | lem for 40 years. l “It has taken more than 40 years of time and thousands of miles of travel from Labrador to the Ever- | |glades for me to locate some 20 eagles’ nests,” he says. | ‘“Each spring each nest has reared two healthy eagles that flapped their wings for a season along the rocky shores. Then when the cold swept down :from the north they faded ‘siléntly’ into the horizon and never came back.” “What becomes of them? In all the 50 years I ‘have followed the pursuit of natural knowledge T have never met anyone who ever saw an eagle die of old age.” A nest in an old pine tree on the Sheepscot river near here has ha¥ched two eaglets each year, he | said. “1 have visited it since 1888 and | in all that time there has never been but one pair of eagles in the ' vlc?mlly Where do the young bxrds { go?” —————— CORDOVA GIRL IS ON THE RAMBLE A letter received recently by a, friend in Cordova from Miss Mar-, garet Close dated from Dresden, Germany, tells of her 'visit to gau and 'of ‘the annual| Passion Play which she witnessed. | Miss Close, who is accompanied by | her mother, is studying music lma | coe | completed GOVERNMENT SPENDS LARGE SUM FOR A1D Expendltures Slnce Begm- ning of Fiscal Year Passes Two Billion WASHINGTON, Oct. 22— The Government's expenditures for the fiscal year beginning July 1 passed the two billion dollar mark With ; emergency spending of one billion | and forty-nine million dollars.
