a shorit account of those birdjs
which have become extinct in his
torical : times—that is, within tine
last sii or seven hundred years.
There are added a few birds which
still eliat,' but arc on the verge
of extinction?
Probably the best known and
most talked about of recently
extinct birds is the “Dodo” (Dir|
dus Clucullatus) which beoame
extinct about the end of the
17th Century (1680-1690).
The 'reasons given by the book
for tlrt “Dodo” becoming extimit
were that its total inability of
flight, ithc heavy slow gait, and
tile umr‘fearlessneas from long
immunity from enemies, led to
continual slaughter of the bird for
food bv the sailors and others whio
came to and dwelt on Mauritius.
But the final cause of the exter
mination of this and many other
birds In <4he Mascarene Islands
was probably the introduction of
igs, and also the Ceylon Mon
ey. These animals increased enor-
mduslyi in .numbers, ran wild in the
roods, and soon destroyed all the

With the return of the buyer’s
market, the major appliance indus

puse,s for young men who will car
ry out the sales of various articles
from electric irons to dishwashers.
The Thor Corporation wants 10,-
000 college men to join their deal
ers sales force.
The new crop of college grad
uates today are men of whom 85)
per cent were war veterans, Hut-
ley said. They are the type of men
that mo$t organizations are look
ing for because of their serious-l
ness and ability to learn the new]
ays of the business from the very
