THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1931 .:. When common danger threatens «all A uarrel seemeth small. 5 ey id Mother Nature. Sharpshin the Hawk, like all members of the Hawk family, has sharp eyes. They are won- derful eyes. They can see a long distance. Now it happens that on this particular morning Sharp- shin flew over. Farmer Browf's cornfield, and as usual his sharp eyes were watching for bird or . mouse, for he was hungry. He looked along the row of sunflower plants at one end of that corn- field and caught sight of some- thing yellow-and-black darting about one of those plants at the snd of the row. "Chicoree the Goldfinch, and he is in a bad temper. He is fight- Ing with some one and when any one is fighting he forgets every- thing else," thought Sharpshin, #] have had many a good meal as the result of a quarrel. To be sure, Chicoree will make hardly more than a bit, but a bite is a bite." He swung about and shot straight for the place where Chi- doree and Danny and Nanny Mea- dow Mouse were foolishly quar- reling over the sunflower seeds. Danny and Nanny are stubborn little people. They were getting : the worst of the fight because they were at a great disadvan- ' tage. They are ground people and so were not at all at home so far above ground, They had to con- 2 tinually dodge Chicoree and at the same time hang on to avoid a fall, Chicoree, darting in and #2 out and stabbing at them with 3 his short little bill, kept them on the defense, and they had no real ¥ chance to get hold of him. But they wouldn't give up. They were what is called fighting mad and they forgot everything else, They forgot that there was such =a thing as danger. They forgot to watch but, and no Meadow Mouse can ever afford to do that. There are too many enemies al- ways looking for them, for them ever to forget to. keep watch. But Danny and Nanny had for- gotten, It was Chicoree who discover- ed Sharpshin. Chicoree had stop- Jed on the top of another sun- ower plant to get his breath ind wisely he took a hasty look around. He saw Sharpshin just #= 3c the latter started that way. He # was, coming fast, terribly fast. ® Not a moment was to be lost. Chicoree dived headlong in under the long leaves of the corn- stalks where he would be at least : partly hidden from the fierce harp eyes, But even in his 'fright he didn't forget to warn Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse. Even as he took that headlong 'dive he shrieked a warning. . "Hawk! Hawk! Hawk! v shrieked. That was enough for Danny : and Nanny, Yes, sir, that was snough for them. Quarrel, sun- +» fower seeds, everything but safe- & ly was forgotten. They didn't * wait to find out where that Hawk was. They didn't wait a second, They didn't even run all : the way down that plant. Half way down they jumped, landing with & thump, thump. Danny ran "ne way and Nanny another, for it is always best to separate when mm enemy appears suddenly. It is likely to be confusing to him. i> [t may make him hesitate for a second deciding which one to fol- a , and in the life of a Meadow 'Mouse a second, one little second, i* may mean the difference between jafety and being caught. Danny darted into some tall grass and squatted close to the ground, keeping perfectly still, # his little heart thumping with fright, Nanny darted into the i= cornfield and hid between the stalks of a big plant, her heart Iso going pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat with fright.

Sharpshin swung up and hovered above the corn, his sharp eyes searching for the least movement or a glimpse of yellow-and-black. He saw neither and in a few minutes flew away. So ended a foolish quarrel for Chicoree and Danny and Nanny wisely decided that there were seeds enough for all and fighting over them didn't pay. (Copyright, 1931, by T. W.

All the in- formation the young man could sup- ply was that she lived in Montreal 2) years ago and he had no idea what was the aunt's husband or what ment he followed. A glance at the names listed un- der McCormick m the telephone di- rectory would serve to prove the difficulty of the task set for Miss Bates. However, she called a num- ber and by good fortune it chanced to be the family sought. The scquel of the discovery was contained in a letter written to J. Ritchie Bell, manager of the Insti- tute, from an officer in the Missions to Seamen in Vancouver, in which he was asked to convey to Mr, Bell the 'hanks of the sailor who had left Montreal in his ship without having a chance to acknowledge the service, A typical request received by the Institute is now being handled. It is irom an Aberdeen mother in search of news of her sailor son, Alec Copland. He has not been scen in the Institute Building since last May and three letters in the In- stitute mail bag bearing the Aber- deen postmaik are evidently from his parent. By conversation with sailors and others means, Miss Bates hopes to be able to discover Copland and to relieve his mother of her anxiety. -- employ- "And now, madame," he said, "I must ask a personal question. How old are you?" "Young man,' she replied, "it isn't mre than an hour since the judge there objected to hearsay evidence. And I don't remember being born; all I know of it 1s hearsay." Many years ago, a man named Thomas Young, Bound Brook, New Jersey, became interested in growing orchids. Growing these frail flowers is a particular job. It takes six to eight years of the most coaxing to bring them into bloom, and then the plants must be handled like a sickly child to keep them blooming, But Young learned how to do it, and for years has received anywhere from $3 to $10 apiece for his orchids. Last year, 11,000:were clipped from the 33 green houses he owns.

Under this Act, sedition, or sedi- tious utterances, or publications, or the possession of arms, or violence, may be'dealt with by a military tri- bunal, consisting of five military of- ficers, whose verdicts for some of these charges may include the death sentence: and from which there is ne appeal except to the Cabinet ex- ecutive. These tribunals are ap- pointed by the Minister of Justice, and a Prisoner may choose a legal defender as in ordinary courtsmar- tial, and is also allowed to have a civil solicitor to advise him, These tribunals are given power to supress newspapers. Mr. Cos- orave, President of the Executive Council, before the Act came into wperation, appealed to parents to persuade their sons to abandon these illegal organizations: and fol- lowed this by a proclamation warn- ing these vouths that unless they surrendered their membership by a definite date, they risked arrest and trial by military tribunals. Known gunmen and trouble-mak- ers scattered as soon as the Act came into force, but since then there have been hali a dozen ar- rests of men who, so far as is known, are still awaiting their trail My information is that no death sentences have yet Been imposed. Civil police have power to turn over men arrested under this Act to the military tribunals, but up to the present the method has been that when such men appear before the civil magistrate, the case is enlarg- and immediately the accused men are arrested by tribunal repre- sentatives, ed, fortnight the the last ni Pheblacht," of "An During premises | of prime one | 'Il The concentrated goodne beef is in BOVRIL newspaper whose name in English is "The Republic," have twice been visited by nulitary tribunaj repre- sentatives, who, finding seditious articles ready for publication, have confiscated the entire issues, which never reached the public. Up to the present they have not exercised their complete power of confiscation of the newspaper as a going concern. As the Act has been explained to me by Irish authorities, it is aimed at an element in the population which would make trouble, no mat- ter what Government was in power. Free Staters are, generally speak- ing, calm and unruffled; even the De Valeraites are said to be secret- ly relieved, though they furiously denounced the Bil} in the Dail as unnecessary and brutally severe. RADIO LINKS ROME T0 ALL MISSIONS Far-Flung Stations To Be in Daily Touch With Pope Rome.--The Pobe's interest in radio communicatidn is so keen that he has decided to have every Cath- olic mission brought into constant wireless contact with Vatican City. Missions will receive daily bulletins from Vatican City, Orders are being placed for the transportation or radio receiving sets--and in some cases transmis- sion sets--to missions, convents and archbishoprics in Africa and Asia, and to cardinals living in Rome. Nuncios, archbishops, heads of schools and colleges will receive messages containing the Pope's wishes. These wil} be sent in a code knéwn only to those who send and receive 'them. The messages will precede by many days, in some cases months, the official docu- ments sent by post and messenger by the Cardinal Secretary of State, The installation of radio in Vati- can City has been a cause of great satisfaction to the Pope, adding a new interest to his drive in the gar- dens where he frequently visits the broadcasting stations. The Pope makes no personal use of any of the receiving sets that have been been Presented to him, his duties consuming so much time that he is unable to "listen in", One set, of which he was particularly { proud, he has presented to the ab | hot of the Benedictine M of Mntecassino, where there lure sohool for boys. Many other ets have been given to him durin the last vear by inventors of differ- | ent nationalities, and these he has 1 oresented to members of his house- | hold. | Traditions Kept The Pope's decision regarding the use of modern means. of communi- cation is alt the more significant because under former Popes there was a tendency to cling to tradition in Church administration, It was not a half century ago that the Cardin- al Vicario of Rome forbade Priests to ride in what in those days was Rome's rapid transit, the two-horse bus, which ambled from St. Peter's square to the centre of Rome. One priest disobeyed and he was called before the Cardinal. He defended himself by saying that the bus in reality was two-horse carriage, but was patronized by many instead of being for his own personal use. He was forgiven. The readiness of the present Pope astery | CANADA LEADS "WORLD IN POWER Holds Record for Low Cost Electrical Energy Canada is one of the leading countries of the world in the pro- duction of low cost hydro-electric energy. She holds this enviable position mainly because of the fact that she is bountifully sup- plied with water powers which are widely and conveniently plac- ed in relation to the centres of industry. and population. In fact practically everywhere in the Dominion ample electrical power produced from water power is available at a cost which renders it widely applicable. The value of this power to the Dominion is enhanced by the fact that her fuel resources, though very great, are not nearly as widely distri- buted and are inconveniently lo- cated to serve the vast central area where the major portion of population and industry is locat- I ed. | The collection of data in Can- | ada on the available water power rescurces of the Dominion is the responsibility of the Department of the Interior, which through its Dominion Water Power ana Hy- drometric Bureau co-operates with the several Provincial auth- orities in the measurement and recording of stream flow in" all the important rivers of Canada. This work, initiated over twenty vears ago, has provided reliable records for many rivers, and these, together with information 28 to fall and other relevant par- ticalars compiled from every available authentic source, have made it possible to make a fair estimate of the total water power resources of the Dominion. The water power available at any site is proportional to the product of the flow of water and the fall, or head, obtainable. The latter, whether due to a natural drop or whether secured partly or entirely by dams, is relatively constant, but the flow under na- tural conditions {is variable. This variability renders it neces- sary to adopt certain uniform bases in calculating the total [OWer resources. For Canada | two hases have been adopted. | The first of these gives the power ander conditions of "ordinary | minimum flew" which is the am- aunt that ordinarily will be con- tinuously available, and the sec- cud indicates the power ordin- arily available continuously for six months of the year. The es- timated total resources of the lro- minion under ordinary minimum flow is about 20,000,000 horse- power and the six-months power fizure is placed at nearly 24,000,- 000 horse-power. An analysis of the existing power developments shows that in actual practice the turbine installation is in excess of the six-months figure, in fact, to depart from tradition was illus- trated before his elevation to the Papacy. Custom decreed that car- dinals in Rome should drive only in black motorcars, or in a carriage drawn by two black horses, but he arrived at the conclave, which was to elect him Pope, in a red taxi, much to the surprise of the more conventional cardinals, the ratio found for the develop- ment which has already occurred --applied to the whole resources -- indicates that these would per- mit a tota' turbine installation of 13,000,000 horse-power, BRITISH POPPIES SOLD IN MILLIONS Great Effort Was Made for Observance of Re- membrance Day London.-- For Day, November 11, 'there were 38,000,000 poppies available for sale to the public hére on behalf of Earl Haig's British Legion Ap- peal Fund. These were sold to the public to be worn for a tvo fold 'purpose-- as a tribute of remem- brance to those who died in the Great War, and to provide funds to enable the British Legion to help the survivors who are in need. These poppies werc made by disabled ex-Servicemen, work- ing throughout the y-ar, and to distfibute them to the 4,000 local organizers 30,000 packages were' necessary. The local or- gaaizers, in turn, distributed the poppies to 250,000 voluntary helpers, In the past many owners of motor vehicles improved a poppy garland, or other form of dec- Remembrance to do this, as the men at the fac- tory now make a poppy motor mascot, which is designed to fix to the radiator cap, and the poppy is made to withstand any weather conditions.
