Plea for Wild Flowers,
Too often h reus frequented by tour
ists and picnickers (the latter title
probitbly eom.ln:r from the tendency to
pick tilings, ure denuded of the wild
flower*.. The picking In moderation
of the flowers alone or even with a
small nii.tninr^of foliage would not he
w ^nd. hut the fact Is that when a
person once gets the habit Ire (usually
sin-, in this ruse) readily loses the
sense of moderation and becomes In
temperate. Moreover the plants are
usually pulled up or broken off at the
ground and In sueh cases extermina
tion Is the common result. It Is only
the weedier," less attractive species,
or those which have some natural de
fensive or offensive property that es
eape destruction.
Picking or -cutting the flowers
alone, while slower In Its effects, will
; In time lead to extermination of most
I species, if continued persistently. Not
even the ubiquitous dandelion could
lone survive the complete loss of se<?d
production and our choicest wild flow
ers are much less aggressive than this
hardy Immigrant.

DEATH PENALTY.
FOB CANNIBALS
France Issues Orders Intended to
Extirpate Practice in Af
rican Possessions.
Pa rl?.? -Albert Barraut, French min
uter of colonies, who was on* of 1
Franco's representatives at tho Wash'
ington naval armament limitation and
pacific conference, haa Just signed two
decrees, Intruded to extirpate the
practice of cannlbal!?in 10 the French
African possessions. The death penal
ty la Impoj&d on any one killing or
trying, to kill human beings for the
purpose of eating their flesh. Imprta
eminent of from one to ten yeara and
a fine of from 100 to 1,000 rrunca are
to he the punishment for complicity In i
such crimes or for eating humw fleah.
Cannibalism survives, M. Barraut Bays,
principally under the form of ritual j
rlt<#s or acts of eorcery.
Discussing this subject In Le Jour
nal, M Fernand Ilauser writes:
??Doctor Cureau, formerly a colonial j
governor, assured us some years ago
In a work on the primitive peoples of i
equatorial Africa that cannlbttllsm, aS
practiced there (and It la practiced,
even In regions rich In food resources*
of all aorta, vegetable and animal), Is |
not due to privation or famine. 'Tt Is j
simply a matter cf taste,' he said. *a
predilection for a certain kind of meat.' j
Cannibalism Called Instinct.
"Cannibalism Is then, according to j
Doctor Oureau, an Instinct. It Is a
custom. The man who Indulges In It :
Is n?>t necessarily ferocious. 'He may
be n man who Is f:??ntle, gay. checrf.;!
and friendly In bis ordinary relations' j
? at lea?t with those about him.
"Doctor f'ureuu added tbat be bad
Several times seen evidences that cer
tain tribes make prisoners of war or
buy slaves to hold them In reserve, :
nn'l then kill them and eat them In ac
cordance with their needs.
"I'ere ^T;>rtron, who also made a
close- rang* study of the African ne
groes. declared, on the contrary, that
the cannibals did not hunt men to sat* ;
!?fv hunger. They eat, he said, only
the bodies of enemies killed In war
nnd, more rarely, the bodies of v those
on whom they wish to wreak* s terrible
vengeance.
"However that may be, Pere Mar
fron and fNoetor Puredu both stated
that cannibalism Is living out. Comlnp
Into Intercourse with more civilized
tribes, the cannibals feel a sense of
shame und soon refuse to admit thnt
human flesh Is eaten by them.
Reports for Many Yeara.
"These are reports dating hack some
.cars. M. .T. Brevle. chief adminlstra- '
f?>r of eolonles, d'rector of political
nnd administrative affairs In the gov- j
? ?rnment of French West Africa, nays
!n his 'Islafnlsine eontre Naturlsme an
Soudan Francals' ? a penetrating essay |
n native psychology which he hn? ;
published-- that many blacks still prac
l Mce cannibalism, less from anv real
need than from nn attachment to an- i
clent rites, which. divorced from their
j pi'mltlve significance. appear unlntel- I
llRible to us. and which they them- !
| selves can no longer explain.
"''Wo "re dealing here.' he declares. \
i 'with human sacrifices, intended rn dls
j arm hostile spirits, or to produce n
sort <?f physical and moral transsub- :
stan'atlon from the person sacrificed 1
? to the person who eats, the latter j
thus assimilating the former's srrenjrtb j
and qualities.' "
Hut whatever may be the reasons
which have kept cannibalism alive, the
French government 1* now determined
to make an end of It.

Then foliowed a four-Weeks' engage- j

GUNBOATS, CRUISERS, SUBS
NAVY'S WANTS FOR 1924
Outline Building Program to Be
Presented to Congress.
Washington, D. 0. ? Eight crullers,
four river gunboats, and three crufser
submarine* will comprise the building
program which the Navy department'
will prw*ent to the budget bureau und
cougrtv-s the coming ?ea*ilon.
Since the four power naval treaty
limit* crujftar tonnage to 10,000 ton*,
the general board has been Instructed
to consider plana which will give the
navy the most efficient vessel of the
eruUer type within tlUa llmltatlun,
Secretary Deuby said- It was expect*
?d. however, the eight new ahlps would
follow closely the dealgn of the Detroit
class, now In progress of delivery. <?
? The four gunboats will be for the
Chinese river patrol. Recent inspec
tion o!" the vessels now engaged In
that putrol, Secretary Den by said, lnj
dlcated that they must be replaced.
"In view of tbe situation In China
and the vast -amount of trade at stake,1 "
the secretary said, "the department
feels It Is most Imperative that email
modern gunboats Immediately be au
thorized by congress."
The three cruiser submarines to be
asked for are also In the hands of
the planning section of the general
board, ami no hint of the type which
might be recommended baa been made
public. It Is considered certain, how
ever, that they will surpass In ton
nage any submersible boat now In use
by any power.
Some surprise was evidenced In navy
circles because of the relatively small
number of cruisers decided on by Ses
retary Denby In view of his known
opinion that the fleet !? markedly de
ficient In this class.
Second only to the deficiencies of the
Panama canal defenses, the report
upon this year's war game stressed^
the lack of fast scouts for the navy.
Mr. Denby *s technical advisers were
understood to have agreed that 17 10.
000-ton cruisers would be necessary to
maintain a 5-5 ratio with Japan, and
19 would be needed If a 5-8 ratio was
to be sought.
