comically Serious In Mating - Its
Wicked Flippers.
It is probable that penguins pair for
life, although nothing definite is known
on the subject When mates are cho-
sen the process is as interesting as It Is
striking. AS Is the case with so many
creatures, the males fight with ench
other for the females, might being
right in the penguin code. The birds
have regular fighting places, and one
such battle-ground was found under
an overhanging ledge. The results OF
innumerable encounters were present
IN the shape OF great quantities of
loose feathers surrounding the little
lighting ring. which itself was clear Of
all debris Although the beak of pen.
guin is so formidable weapon when
used ON thin skinned enemies, yet their
own skin and blubber are so resistant
that they can innict no injury by this
means. The customary mode Of fight

combatants proceed to the fighting

decorous. consistent with the rest OF
the life OF these strange little beings.
When at last each secures good

neAt the real fighting begins. AS nine
tenths Of the life of penguins IS spent
on the open sea. where they pursue
and cGpture 1sh. swimming With great
swiftness by strokes Of the nipperllke
wings, it can well be imagined that
the strength Of their wings Is very
great and when the two fighters begin
to belabor each other with rapidly VI
hratlng flipper strokes each resoundlng
whack must make a considerable im-
preston even on the protecting coat of
blubber fat. No one has ever recorded
the finish OF such an encounter. but 1t
is not probable that they result fatally.
! The weaker of the two must soon sue
cumb under such severe punishment
and yield the field and the fair penguin
mate TO his stronger rival. The
strength of the wing strokes can be
tested by allowing a penguin to take
hold Of ones coat sleeves or, better,
the back OF the hand. The third OF
