Dr. Hamilton reports a small flock of golden-crowned kinglets seen in a sheltered place in one of the ravines. With the exception of the humming bird the kinzlet is the smallest bird to be found in this region. Yet given a food’supply of insect eggs and dorm- ant caterpillars. these birds are able to live here in the coldest weather. A prairie horned lurk and some tree sparrows have been seen in the open.

If 21 Member of Congress is to perform? the service which his constituents have; a right to expect of him. he must natural‘: ly be in Washington attending to his duties during the sessions of Congress. l The question of “absciitocism”: is a . seridtis one. and my obgervatlon of the] pad few weeks leads me to believe that: it IS particularly so during the short on"l "lame duck" session. ‘ lt Will be interesting to note that the followmg facts with reference to the at- tendance of the twenty-six me r: of the House lrom Illinois for e present session which began December 7th. Thirteen members (just half the delega. lion) have been here zlLthe time.

Three members. two of whom an “lame ducks". have been here all the time except for the Christmas rece- and four other members, nll reelected. were absent the first week of the session and also during the Minn recess.

And yet sqme of these lllinois members. who have been absent so much of the time are on some of the most important committees of the house, ~committees that have been in almost daily session preparing annual supply bills appropriat- ing hundreds of millions of dollars. On Thursday of this week votes were taken in the house on ten or a ‘dozen of the most vital of the amendments added to the immigration Bill by the Senate. Am- endments are being offered to the pend- ing appropriation bills in the house and are being voted upon almost .every day. effecting the expenditure of hundreds of thousand of dollars. Private matters come now and then which make an absence of a few days al- most unavoidable. But absence of weeks in length are without excuse when mem- bers are collecting their salaries for work they are not doing and at the same time are making money at home in their private business to which they are giving their time and attention. The Federal statutes provide that the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House, shall dc. duct from the monthly payments of each member. the amount of his salary for (lay that he has been absent from the hvuux‘. unlws the absence IS came-d bv the su'kness ut the member nr of some nwmhrr nf hi3 (firmly, [hm 1.1“ is whul l» disregnrfled Towar ‘ (he end of the last session when members were “pawns to get home and many did leave tn get into their campaigns or to eiijoy’a rest at the sea shbre‘ it was hard to maintain a quorum in the house.

That was known’ as House Resolution 601. The house passed in and the official in question complied with it.
