enclosure, and there was every indication that the Florida flamingo had
made a successful "come-back."

"They pass and disappear, where the darkening palms indent
The horizon underneath some high and tawny star,
Lost in the sunset gulfs of glowing cinnabar,
Where sinks the painted moon of orpiment."
C. A. Smith in Asia Magazine, Nov. 1919.
