Hornaday Gift Of Heads And Horns
The York Zoological Society supports building a national head and horn collection led by Dr. Hornaday and supported by Madison Grant and Dr. Phillips. The gift of two notable heads, a Rocky Mountain bighorn and a white mountain goat, anchors a plan to catalog species by evolution and geography, with photos and a library for researchers and sportsmen. The effort seeks a donor pair of Alaskan bull moose antlers and hopes for a dedicated building in time.

The Eye of a Pianist and Rapid Reading of Notes
A pianist must train eye hands and brain to read and play Weber Moto Perpetuo with vast rapidity. The article notes players read about nineteen notes per second yet the eye collects only about ten impressions per second, so rapid music is perceived in grouped impressions rather than as single notes.

Letchworth Park Gift Preserves Genesee Valley Heritage
William S. Letchworth has donated his Glen Iris estate along the Genesee River in New York to the state for a public park. The 1000 acres extend three miles along both riverbanks, linking historic sites from Red Jacket to Mary Jemison with the old council house and the big tree treaty location. The park, now named Letchworth, draws visitors to a landscape rich in Native American history and Revolutionary era ties, including relics, a museum collection, and the Erie Railroad bridge over the Genesee. The article traces the valley’s storied past and Letchworth’s lifelong dedication to humanitarian work and preservation.
