Chapman believes concern- big lbs mlgratlou of birds that mlgra tion began In the South, rather than the North, as the tropical region was the place where the primitive birds and their repition ancestors originated and developed. In bis opinion theie was crowding near the center t f the food supply, which resulted, lit some of the primitive creatures seeking sustenance at the edges of their lone of existence. These venturesome ones probubly died before the primitive birds could fly. but as ftyiiig became more aud more natural they were able to migrate far ther and father with safety, so that they were able to easily flnd a ueslhtg-plaee, to which they annually repaired, an I could later return to their normal iiine.
