TRIPPING SEASON TO END . z f With the closing of the season for lawfully taking fur-bear-ing animals On February 10, hundreds of Indiana people will take out permits to raise those animals in captivity, for fur farming has become an important industry in this state. Last year the fish and game division of the state conservation department issued 346 permits to hold game birds, and furbearers for breeding purposes, and George N. Mannfeld, division chief, anticipates the license list will increase this season. He points out that stock to be held must have been taken in the open season. Last year license holders to breed racoons and silver foxes were in the lead although many wished to raise only wild game birds. o EUGENIC BABY New York.—Mrs. Grace Malhouse Burnham, attractive and wealthy widow, with about $500,000, whose venture into eugenic motherhood without benefit of clergy and set the tongues of moralists wagging, is now at her home in Greenwich Village with her two weeks’ old daughter.

LINCOLN’S BIRTHDAY Americans will soon be celebrating Lincoln’s Birthday and again will they be struck with wonder at the career of this humble son of the people who has been the inspiration for some of America’s greatest writers and artists. For no other American, not even excepting George Washington, has been so much written about and so often pictured, especially in sculpture, as has Abraham Lincoln. There’s an interesting feature article by Elmo Scott Watson in this issue of The Journal which is appropriate to the coming Lincoln Birthday celebration. It’s called “Lincoln in Song and Story” and it presents that theme in a new and unusual manner. ‘You’ll enjoy reading it. o MANY AUTOMOBILES STOLEN Os the 1910 automobiles stolen in Indiana during the past year and reported to the office of the secretary of state, more than one half were Ford machines.
