There are several varieties, po the. black, common, roseate, least; sooty, bizdled, and Arctic terns. The last named is about 15 inches in length, grayish above and pearly | below, with red. bill, deeply-forked | tail, an wide wing:-spread. The Arctic, tern is a great bird traveler, its * migrations extending from the Arctic regions to the Ants arctic. Over the thousands and thou- space their graceful | wings carry them; from polar regions {at the north; over north. temperate, ; torrid, and south temperate lands and seas, to polar regions of th south. | In mid-June the bird appears in ithe Arctics, nesting as far north as Jand has been discovered. It keeps near to the shore, for much of its liv- ing is garnered from the waters. Through: the time while the eggs are hatching and the young birds growing, the Arctic terns enjoy the perpetual day of mid-summer in that northern "land of the midnight eun." For weeks, although the sun dips near the horizan, it néver sets. When "the young birds are full- grown and have gained strength for traveling, the flight southward begins. Thousands of terns from along the no coasts depart by the first of September. No ornithologiet has been able as yet to trace their full flight, so their route--if like most mi- grating birds they have regular routes ~--ig"mot wholly known. Arrived in far southern lands, time Las passed, and the sun now shines on the Antarctic regions, while at the «jnorth which they have left behind them, day disappears in the long night of winter. Thus it may be seen that the Aretie térn enjoys more hours of daylight during the year than any other living creature, Is it love of light that prompts them to take the long journey twice yearly? If so, how do they know that the changing seasons will shift the weeks of daylight from one pole to the other? The wonders of nature are many, and not the least among themr is: this knowledge possessed by these beauti- ful "birds, the Arctie terns, or sea swallows, a Button! Button! Where's the , 'Button?
