S. HAMLIN DIES IN BOSTON WASHINGTON: April 24 UP) Charles Sumner Hamlin, 76, former assistant secretary of treasury and first governor of the Federal Reserve Board, died at his home here today after several months' illness. He was a native of Boston. Hamlin served as assistant sec retary of the treasury under presidents Cleveland and Wilson. 1914 Mr.

Wilson appointed him first gov ernor of the Federal Reserve Board. He remained a member of the board by reappointment until 1936 Since that time he has been special counsel of the board. Hamlin was special commissioner of Japan in 1897 and also under took several other diplomatic mis sions, Including membership on the United States commission on limit ation of armaments la 1906. si PLUNGING into Australian for. esis recently, scientists were able for the first time to make ex traordinary pictures of a most extraordinary little creature, the lyrebird.

And along with their Alms they brought back some odd tales. The famed Australian bird turns out to be a most talented little fellow. Dark brown usually, about the size of the average do mesne iowi, ne is an amazing dancer. Moreover, during his dance and at other times as well the male bird sings his own rare accompaniment Often he may be heard a quarter of a mile. But then the lyrebird must hold its own good musical name, for long ago the Australians so titled the bird because of the resemblance which its tail was considered to bear to the musical instruments of the ancients.

It forms the perfect pattern of a lyre. But the bird is a poor producer. The male takes no part whatever in domestic labors and the female lays but one egg a year. Their art is entertainment and they are accomplished mimics, often accu 1 I 'I Ij rately imitating many other i of their habitat. Wide favorite ft) Australia, the bird is pictured here on a 19 3 2 A tr alian postage stamp.
