Mrs. Monroe, working in cooperation with the Ulster County Home Bureau, has been addressing croups of Home Bureau members informally, giving the layman's viewpoint of conditions that may arise which should be referred to a lawyer and in which a lawyer's advice would be most acceptable.

In speaking to a Freeman re- yorter Tuesday afternoon, Mrs. Monroe, although refusing to go on record as to what she said because of infringing on the legal profession, gave an interesting account of how she became interested in this work, It began 40 years ago when Mrs. Monroe was married. She was not content to stay at home and keep house, since she was active as a school teacher before her marriage. She decided to raise poultry and took prizes all over the state for her fine showings.

As a result Mrs. Monroe became interested in the Farmer's Institute and for a time was the only woman who attended the meetings. Mrs. Monroe talked to women in small groups, telling them of lighting and sanitation and various other phases of poultry work. Finally she became interested in law, her husband's profession, aud how the laws protect a woman and her family.

With the aid of her husband's professional advice, she was able to tell these groups of women some of the things she was learning. In time Mrs. Monroe was asked to talk to other groups and first associated with the State Department of Agriculture. When it became the Department of I'arms and Markets it came to Cornell University under the college department. Mrs.

Monroe is now the only speaker remaining in this extension work. Having completed their six months of preliminary training these student nurses have been officially iccepted into the School of Nursing of the Kingston Hospital.

Audubon and Wilson, early naturalists, reported that they saw these wild pigeons flying in flocks eight or ten miles long, more than a mile wide and so compact that the sun was hidden from view as they passed. tt'hen they settled down on a forest for the night, notes a writer in the Indianapolis News, trees broke down under their Their cooing and the whirring at their wings were so loud that the report of a Bun could not be heard. During the breeding season hundreds of them would nest in a single tree. The entire species is now extinct.

According to the United States biological survey, the last known survivor was a captive bird which died in the Cincinnati zoological gardens in September, 1914. Many theories have been advanced to -account for the complete disappearance of these birds. The early settlers and hunters shot them by thousands and knocked them down with clubs and poles. It is generally believed by naturalists that this indiscriminate -laughter of the passenger pigeons led to their ultimate extinction as species. As civilization encroached upon the wilderness the birds began to disappear and kept on disappearing until there was not a single specimen living.

One writer, however, believes that the birds were destroyed by a species ot chicken mite introduced from Europe. Ke reported that during the seventies and early eighties he found thousands of dead squabs under the trees where the pigeons were nesting. Upon examination they were found to be literally covered with mites. quested to be present. Plans will also be ttade for remodeling the au.xiliasr kitcheu.

If you if up on a high mountain where the atmospheric pressure is reduced, water will freeze and remain frozen at temperatures above 32 degrees.

This is one reason why snow stays on mountain tops all the year round in some places, even though temperatures rise. In places below sea level, the air pressure is greater and so the freezing point for water is lower than 32 degrees. Business Girls to Show Styles members and friends of the or- sanization.
