Bird Lore

In Washington, to the American Society of Newspaper Editors sharp-tongued little Frank Richardson Kent, political gadfly for the Baltimore Sun, buzzed angrily: "There is more bluff, sham, false pretense, faking, cheap posturing, posing and futility here[in Washington] than any place else. The bulk of the birds who fly about in the Washington aviary are not nearly as beautiful or as good as they pretend--or as the newspapers picture. . . . What they want is to be taken by the newspapermen as seriously as they take themselves. What they don't want is to have a newspaperman go behind the front and tell what sort of men they really are without their false whiskers."
