He has a peculiar habit of crossing his legs exactly like a human when he sits down. He cud- dles up in his basket exactly like a human baby. The probiem of training the infant anthropoid presents considerable dif- ficulty, according to Mr. Blackburn. He is not anxious to attract the crowds that used to attend the school classes of Socco. Punishment is pro- hibited. This is essential in the thorough training of an animal, al- though cruelty is not necessarily re- sorted to. Socco, however, has never been struck, his even in THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. rebellious moments and the baby chimpanzee never will feel a whip. He 18 in deadly fear of Socco. The two have adjoining runways. On just one occasion they occupled these at the same time. The little one was so frightened at ‘the menacing at- titude of the older that he ran back to his cage and hid his head in the box furnished him for sleeping pur- poses. Only once since has he ven- tured into the runway and that was after long peeping around the corner had assured him his dreaded enemy was inside. The comparison between the baby chimpanzee and the baby human is very close, according to Zoo officials. Numerous Additions. The Zoo has received a number of additions this summer, 23 of which have been born in the park. Most of these were among the hoofed animals, such as the deer and buffalo, Most notable of the new acquisitions is a cage of tropical birds from South America, with some of the most lux- urious colors of jungle life In their feathers. There are four tanagers of brilliantly variegated brown, red and blue. The three tropical orioles of black and gold, a family of red and blue honey creepers and four blue grossbeaks complete this collection.

This came as a gift from P. U. Schufeldt, formerly of Washington, but now engaged in business in the| g Central American republic. Reptile Family Increases. The snake family in the lion-house also has grown considerably with gifts of 12 reptiles, including some unusually fine rattlesnakes, copper- heads, spreading adders and bull snakes. There is a continual need for gifts of this kind, as polsonous reptiles do not thrive well in captiv- ity and it is difficult to keep them alive.
