BIRD NOTES
Jamee Thome delighted the other
members of , the Bird Club Saturday,
with a selection regarding Bok's
Tower, called "the moat -beautiful
spot in America." This Bird Sanctuary
and Singing Tower is the canter
of Mountain Lake Park in Florida.
Far from the noises of automobiles
and industries, it Is a place of quiet
repose eerijoyed alike by people and
birds. There are fifty bird baths
used by the birds for <ttjn)dng and
bathing. *
Some thirty varieties of birds are
habitually there and some remain all
winter. Nightingales were imported
fro pi England and the bells, seventy
one in number, were cast there and
sent direct from Liverpool to Jacksonville.
A special train of flatcars
carried the bells to Mountain Late
with an escort of police and railroad
employees.
.With its numerous lakes, sylvan'
setting, and the music of the carillons,
abd the^ kinging of the birds, it is
truly a place where as the motto of
the Sanctuary describes it; "I come
here to find myself; jt is so easy to
get lost in the world."
The Tower was erected by Edward
W. Bok, simply to create symbols of
pure beauty, and as a means to
spread, the influence and power of
beauty, and as an expression qf his
appreciation and gratitude to the
American people. President Coolidge
went to Florida to dedicate the Sanctuary
and the Singing Tower and to
present them for visitation to the
American people. It is the "Taj
'Mahal of America." <
