Lord Julian Pauncefote Was British Ambassador Lord Julian Pauncefote, who be came the first British ambassador to the United States in 1893, was born in Munich, Germany, Septem ber 13, 1828. He was educated in England, France and Switzerland, and was destined for a career in the Indian army. He had already re ceived a cadetship in the Madras light infantry, when for family rea sons he decided to enter the legal profession. In 1862 he went to Hongkong to practice and three years later was appointed attorney general of the colony. In 1873 hs was knighted, and in the years following served in various capacities in the British colonial and foreign offices. He was made permanent undersecretary of state for foreign affairs in 1882, served as British commissioner of the Suez canal negotiations in 1885 and came to the United States as minister four years later. The post of ambassador was not created for another four years. After he headed the British dele gation to the peace conference at The Hague in 1899, Queen Victoria made him the first Baron Paunce fote of Preston. The years he spent In the United States were the most successful. He liked this country and made every effort to help it in every way. His chief contribution, the Hay-Paunce fote treaty, negotiated in 1901, per mitted the United States govern ment to build and control the Pan ama canal as it now does. He died at the British embassy in Washington, May 24, 1902. A state funeral was held there. The body was taken to England on an American warship. He is buried at Stokes, New Newark, England. Grouse Family Large; Found in Many States The grouse family is a large one and some subspecies can be found in a great number of the states and in Canada. The grouse, or at least the true grouse, is said not to be found anywhere save in the north ern hemisphere. The ruffed grouse and the Canada spruce partridge, known as the black grouse, have been considered two of the most valuable of the grouse family in America. It is interesting to note the man ner in which the grouse, or mem bers of the family, are named in vatrlous parts of the country and Canada. In Canada there Is the black grouse or spruce partridge, which also is known as the swamp partridge. The spruce partridge is a small wood grouse and his habitat is the northern spruce forests. In New England the ruffed grouse was called the partridge or “patridge.” In many sections of the country the grouse is called a pheasant. He also is called a prairie chicken. But authorites hold that these other birds are not of the same genus as either the Canada spruce par tridge or the ruffed grouse. Lizard Ha* Defensive Weapon* The Mexican spiny lizard, though an entirely helpless creature so far as defending itself physically is con cerned, is provided by nature with three very effective means of self protection. These reptiles are so covered with sharp spines that they can be handled only with difficulty. The spines also serve as a protec tion for the lizard because they form what might be termed a cloak of in visibility, so closely imitating the fragments of larval rock and other mineral debris amongst which the various species of spiny lizards are found as to allow its possessor to escape detection by an enemy. In case the spines fail to protect the lizard either from discovery or at tack, however, the animal can con found an enemy by ejecting a thin stream of blood with great force from the corner of each eye. Starfish Enemy of Oyster The starfish are among the most formidable enemies of the oyster. One means of destroying them is to catch them on a specially designed apparatus made of frayed rope, called a “tangly,” and then kill them by plunging them into hot wa ter. Persons engaged in this work know better than to cut the cap tured starfish in pieces and throw them back into the water. This would only mean more starfishes than ever to prey upon the oysters, for each piece of starfish replaced in the water alive has a chance eventually of developing into a com plete animal. Elephant* Sense Gravity Elephants that have been broken in to serve man frequently exhibit evidence of a high order of intelli gence. In lifting a huge log on its tusks one of these big animals will calculate the center of gravity of the log very accurately, picking it up in such a way that the two ends, often of unequal diameter, will bal ance each other. Moving Sand Hill* in Peru Moving sand hills in Peru are seen on the plain of Islay, near Are quipa. The Spanish name is me dano. They are crescent-shaped bodies of white sand moving across the desert with the winds. The sand seems different from the des ert sands over which they move. SUBSCRIBE FOB THE HERAT,D DEFECTIVE PAGE Prince of Wales* Titles May Exceed All Others The Prince of Wales’ titles include the following: His Royal Highness Edward Al bert Christian George Andrew Pat rick David, Prince of Wales and Earl of Chester, duke of Cornwall, Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick, Baron of Renfrew, Lord of the Isles and Great Steward of Scotland, High Steward of Windsor, Knight of the Garter, Privy Councilor of the This tle, Grand Commander of the Star of India, Grand Master of the Order of St Michael and St. George, Grand Commander of the Order of the In dian Empire, Knight (Grand Cross) of the Royal Victorian Order, Grand Master of the Order of the British Empire, Companion of the Imperial Service Order, Military Cross, Fel low of the Royal Society, personal aid de camp to his majesty the king, colonel of the Welsh Guard, colo nel In chief of the Middlesex regi ment, the Duke of Cornwall’s light infantry, the Seaforth Highlanders, the Royal Scottish Fusileers, the South Wales Borderers, the Lemster regiment, the Royal Wiltshire yeo mapry, and the Cadet Corps of the United Kingdom, captain of the royal navy, group captain of the royal air forces. The first trip of the Prince of Wales to the United States was in November, 1919. His next visit to this country was in September and October, 1924. Versions on “When in Rome Do as Romans Do” Like most such sayings, its origin is not really known. But it is often credited as the advicfe of St Am brose to St. Augustine. The latter was in the habit of dining on Satur day as on Sunday, but at Rome they had begun to fast on Saturday, and Augustine, puzzled by the dif ference in practice, appealed to St Ambrose, the bishop of Milan. His counsel was: “When I am in Rome I fast as the Romans do; when I am at Milan I do not fast So likewise you, what ever church you come to, observe the custom of the place, if you would neither give offense to others nor take offense from them.” Other versions of his advice are given, and the same idea is found in other places, as in Burton’s An atomy of Melancholy: “When they are at Rome they do there as they see done.” Stamps Money Cannot Buy We often hear of a unique stamp fetching a record price, but there are stamps which no bid could se cure, however high it might be. They constitute the most wonderful collec tion in the world, twenty-four of every issue, which has ever been made in the British empire, starting with the “penny” blacks of 1840. They are kept in the vaults of Som erset house, and three officials, each with a key, must be summoned be fore access can be had to them. Thousands of stamps of all colors, shapes, prices, sizes, and denomina tions are there in glass covered, dust proof cases. Only one feature have they in common. All are British. None of these stamps could be dupli cated if lost or destroyed, because once the plates from which stamps are printed show any sign of wear they are destroyed. Thus it may be said, small as they are, they are as valuable as the greatest paintings the nation possesses, and there is certainly no collection in the world to equal them. Farming in Ancient China Farming in ancient China was a highly respected occupation. Once a year the emperor not only worshiped in the temple of agriculture, but he also put his hand to the plow to honor the tiller of the soil. During this elaborate ceremony he laid aside his royal robes and wore the yellow dress of a peasant He took hold of a yellow plow and made nine furrows from east to west. During the ceremony the royal chorus sang hymns of praise to the farmers. The grounds on which these ceremonies were held covered 300 acres and thousands of people witnessed the spectacle. Life of Luther Burbank Luther Burbank was a famous American plant breeder, taking up that work at the age of seventeen after leaving public school. He was born in Massachusetts, in 1849, mar ried Elizabeth Waters of Hastings, Mich., in 1916, and died in Cali fornia in 1926, maintaining to the very end that he did not believe in the hereafter. He carried on ex perimental work with plants for more than 50 years, producing many new varieties of flowers, vegetables, berries and fruits. He also was a lecturer and writer on horticultural subjects. When Niagara Falls Were Dry The winter of 1847-48 was extraor dinarily severe. Heavy ice formed in Lake Erie. When it was broken up during the latter part of March, the wind swept the ice into the en trance of Niagara river at Buffalo, where it jammed in a solid mass, completely choking the outlet of Lake Erie, with the result that on March 29, 1848, the falls of Niagara were practically dry. Similar con ditions prevailed during the winter of 1925-26. bead the herald fob news Dr. and Mrs. C. L.
