For the first time in nearly 1,000 years the ugly black birds have vanished from Tower Green. Seventeen-year-old Grip, last of the Tower ravens, ground- | bound by clipped wings, has walked out, The Tower’s 12 acres have been. searchel but Grip is | still missing. Two , months“ ago | his mate, Mabel, mysteriously vanished. . SNe Said A. H. Cook, Chief Ward- er: “After Mabel went Grip’s | sorrow was pitiful. He moped about, stuck in his corner, hung his head and did not take his bow.” Cora, a young raven from the Welsh Hills, now in Chester Zoo, was rumored as likely, successor to the missing Mabel. But Grip | stalked out on the match-makers. Scandalized Tower authorities} ‘are trying to hush the story up. Warders shake their heads when | you ask them, They have been! given orders not to talk, they say. Officially on garrison strength, to warders and public alike, the ravens are as much a part of! Tower as the centuries-old walls themselves. Their attestation papers, swear- | ing obedience to orders and loy- alty to King and country, are for-| mally signed by the Tower Gov- ernor. In line with tradition, Grip has} been officially posted in Tower Orders as “missing.” ers, that when the last raven goes from the Tower disaster will be- fall the country. | Governor’s Wife To Receive P.-T.

Varela Free Delivery i THE KEY WEST CITIZEr My political tour on behalf of Democratic’ candidates for the House and the Senate has taken me into the states of Washing- ton, Oregon, California, and more recently into the great Mid-West, to Minnesota, North Dakota, Illi- nois and Michigan. Unfortunately a touch of flu prevented me from speaking in Wisconsin last week, but I hope to return to that state in between two other speaking engagements in Missouri and West Virginia. Whenever I travel through the country in this fashion, I deeply regret that I cannot spend long enough time in each state to learn something more about the state and the section. This is an exciting country, full of marked | contrasts, and so rich both in its| promise and its performance.

As the traffic of this giant city was suspended to permit the speedy movement of the dele- gates from the City Hall to a huge luncheon at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, and on to the great audi- torium at Flushing Meadows in the city’s outskirts, I thought} surely the spirit of Franklin Roosevelt and of Wilson must be hovering over the delegates and urging each one to guard this Precious burden of peace-making | and peace-keeping. Because of my own political speaking engagements I was un- able to attend any of the func- tions of that day, so that I was able to view them from the out- side with every other citizen.
