BOY PICKS SINGER -~ . FROM 8,000 BIRDS Is Expert in Musical Habits of Canaries. é e : New York.—Otto can't speak English, but he «can pick a singing canary out of the fock of 8,000, all chirping at once, , : | Otto is a Germian boy, one of several upon whose judgment the canary importers of New York rély when they guarantee the musical luibits of their birds. He stands all day in the cénter of an upstairs oo in downtown Manhattan. Around the walls are tiers of tiny ecages, each (’:untuinixlg one canary, The S.OOO potential songsters. keep up a continuous chirping while they pick at the seeds in their cages, so that one shrill, discordant note hangs always in the air. But Oito does not depend on his ears. =He watches their necks and when he sees a movement in the feathers under the beak that indicates to him a song instead of a chirp he makes a chalk mark on the cage. The birds who have® burst into unheard song then are segregated for sale to retailers as warblers who really warble. : - : It is obvious, therefore, that c"umu'y voices are discovertd after the vellow n'lid;."uls' acrive on this side. Not so, however, with the opera stars of the bird world, the bullfinches. Bullfinches are patiently trained by organists or harness makers In their native Germany. The Littes whistle one song over and over again to birds suspended. in cages over their benches until the pupils hve menorized an entire selection. Some learn as many as three songs.’ They, of course, bring the highest price, which is $lOO, - In canary-breeding time in the Harz moutitains of Germany the stock to be hutched this spring will be laid by for export next year., “The bhirds are kept in warehouges overseas. one New York dealer aldine - having 28,000 of last year's crop’waiting to be brought over; ' P : The songsters: arrive weekly, efch of scveral wholesalers in town. receiving from 3,000 to 6,000 in a consignment.

‘Plan to Move Body of Chopin Starts Fuss Paris—The admirers of [rederick Chopin are engaged in.a biilter quarrel over the proposal to remaove the composer’s hody from Pere-Lachaise cemetery in Paris, where it was buried 79 years ago, and take it to his native Poland for veburial, - - The suggestion that the body be moved started with a group led by M. Edouard Ganche, They wanted the body to lie in state beside the remains of Poland's heroes, Kosciosko, Mickiewicz, Marshal Poniatowski and Slowacki in the Wawel, which ig Poland’s “Westminster Abbey.” : M. Ganche contends that if it were not for strife raging in Poland at the time of Chopin’s death, the musician would undoubtedly have been burled there. Instead he died and was buried in Paris, and now a great monument depicting a muse weeping over a silenced lyre stands over his tomb, which is the pilgrimage place of many musie lovers. : B The principal objection to the rei . 5 & moval is that Chopin’s ashes have probably completeiy disappeared. * It 18 further argued that Chopin’s father was a Frenchman, born at Nancy, - Women Hunters Into ' * Carolina Preserves North Shell Island, 8.
