Flnley Believes They Display More Than Instinct. That many varieties of birds have what amounts to something more than instinct, which is. In reality, the power of reason ing, was the statement made by W. L. FInley, lecturing before the Woman's Club yesterday afternoon. Mr. FInley was particularly at home with his sub ject. With the beauty of his stereopticon views, no less than by his vivid power of description, the lecturer held his audi ence. He laid particular stress on the cruelty of caging animals and birds. Mr. FInley described the gull as being the bird possessed of most brain sense or power of reasoning, although he admitted that the blackbird ran very close for second place. "Some actual natural history has been described as fiction." said the natural ist. "How else can we interpret the ac tions of animals and birds observed in the field than by putting it down to ac tual brain use? If we believe in evolution at all. we must believe"in the development of brain matter in the birds of the field." Showing the sense displayed by the young gulls in staying close to rock sim ilar to their own coloring was a feature of the illustrations. The lecturer pro ceeded to discuss the cruelty of keeping performing animals. He said: "Such per formances are blots upon our humane education. They educate our children in cruelty, and they are not even interest ing." Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway proposed a vote of thanks to the speaker, suggest ing that as he had such a thorough knowledge of the flight of birds he should be Invited to discourse before the Wright Brothers and other exponents of aerial navigation.
