TRAINING SEALS.
These Oexterous Animals Easily
Tannht IN Perfnrrn TrinLs

These Dexterous Animals Easily
Taught to Perform Tricks.
THE cardinal principl" in training
animals" says an animal trainer, is
not TO attempt to make an animal do
anything contrary 70 the nature of its
particular species To be successful a
trainer must know enough about the
habits of the animals he has under
training 10 st The tricks he would teach
them 10 their natural bent
The seal is very easily taught. You
begin with one seal, some small pieces
of fish and string. You let the seal
sit on his paaestiil something he likes
TO do by nature: then you throw him
one Of the pieces Of fish. and he natu-
rally and easily catches il. Next you
tie a piece of fish Oh the end Of your
string and swing il toward the seal
He catches this. too. and YOU keep
moving away from him and swinging
the fish to him from an increasin dis
lance. Now You are ready TO begin
with the hat or cOrnucOpia. You put
piece Of fish i'm the bottom of il and
toss it TO the seal The seal is dex-
ferrous by nature, and his nose. quickly
detecting the fish in the tip of the
cone, seeks it out The cone catches on
his snOut, and he bites out the fish and
losses the cone aside Before long he
comes to associate the cone with fish,
and he will catch any number Of sim
liar ones and toss them aside when he
fails 70 find what he wants.
Balancing the big rubber ball is
based on the same principle. The ball
is soaked in fishy brine and thrown to
the seal. He gets the odor and tries
his best 10 get into the ball and find
what he is after. This results in his
balancing the BAH on his nose. feat to
which his supple neck and his natural
feeding habits are all adapted. and
then he gets his piece of fish as a
prize. New York World

AUGUSTANA'S TEAM
ISSTUMBlING BLOCK
local Basketball Five Crowding the
Others for State Cham
pionship.

Augustana's good record in basket
tice OF some of the best teams in this
part of the middIewest. Numerous
challenges have been received from
some very fast teams, teams which
claim that the only thing that stands
in their way for the state champion
ship is Augustana and. therefore, a
game must be played Immediately 70
decide this matter once for all.
Some of these challenging teams hail
from towns which can be found on the
map only with difficulty. AS a mum
Der of these schools do not even send
their record for the season with their
challenge but only assert that they
are good. no attention has been paid
TO them.
One of the really good teams that
has challenged Augustana for a game
is the Marquette university quintet
from Milwaukee. Marquette univers-
ity is one of the largest Catholic
schools in the country and is always
represented by the best of athletic
teams especially in football. II has
not been decided whether Augustana
will accept this challenge or not The
schedule is pretty well filed up, so
il is a rather difficult matter to
squeeze in another game. St Bede
college of Peru has also challenged
Augustana for a game.
Tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock
the Hedding college team from Abing
don will tackle Augustana for the sec
ond time this season. This game will
be played in the Augustana gymna-
SUM. The local team gave the He'd
ding quintet drubbing on its own
floor last Wednesday to the tune of
