I HAVE industriously sought data for an expression upon birds,
but the prospecting has not been very quasi-satisfactory. I think I rather
emphasize our industriousness, because a charge likely to be brought against the
attitude of Acceptance is that one who only accepts must be one of languid
interest and little application of energy. It doesn't seem to work out: we are
very industrious. I suggest to some of our disciples that they look into the
matter of messages upon pigeons, of course attributed to earthly owners, but
said to be undecipherable. I'd do it, ourselves, only that would be selfish.
That's more of the Intermediatism that will keep us out of the firmament:
Positivism is absolute egoism. But look back in the time of Andr�e's Polar
Expedition. Pigeons that would have no publicity ordinarily, were often reported
at that time.
In the Zoologist, 3-18-21, is recorded an instance of
a bird (puffin) that had fallen to the ground with a fractured head.
