SONG OF THE SWAN.
a Vocal Diree About Which Poets and
Nasuralists DISAGREE,

There is an air OF legendary mys-
terry about the swan. Some swans are
mute, but most have sonorous voices
of surprising power and reach. Poetic
tradition declares that the swan sings
i'll dying, and so we have the familiar
phrase to indicate the last effort of a
poet--"swan song" Othello exclaims,
II will play the swan and die in mu-
sic' And Portia says in ''The Mer-
chant of Venice He makes a swan
like end, fading IN music"
A hundred other poets have used SIM
liar expressions, and yet naturalists
declare that the swan does not make
any music in dying, though it may
make noise. And these same natur-
alists aver that the great vocal pow
ers of swans are due to a special
sounding apparatus formed by the
coling of the long trachea (windpipe,

flight, can be heard from above the

In 1899 after fierce battle with the

The Moth and the EIama.

The moth plunges headlong into the
flames because Of the way its body is
constructed. There are two symmeiri-
cal points, exactly alike chemically, On
the moths body-namely, it's eyes. II
the rays of light modify the chemical
condition of one side more than the
other, then the moths power of move
ment is affected There is n stronger
muscular tension on one side than ON
the other, and the moth is forced 10
move toward the source of light If,
however, one of the eyes is removed
the chemical symmetry is destroyed.
and instead of plunging into the flame
it moves about in n circle.

FRANK e. HOWE, Editor and Pui
Thursday, July I. 1915.

Evidence is slowly coming to hand
that the French and English armies
have at las: started their great Often
sive movement against the Germans
in northern France in an attempt tC
relieve Russia which Is gasping on
the brink of disaster. The London
censors do not allow the details to
pass them but it is probable that the
moyment has been under way for
several days and news of a great vic
tory on the part of the allies may
reasonably be expected. Four mil
lion French soldiers, nearly three
million British and toward humid
dred thousand Belgians are going up
against the two million Germans who
are trying to hold the western battle
line while the Russian defeat is made
decisive. 1t does not seem possible
that these few Germans can hold the
line aginst four times their numbers
and they cannot if the French and
British commanders are capable gen
erals. II is probable that the English
haze moved before they were fully
ready, spurred by the critical state Of
Russia, but even if not fully prepared
the British numbers should compen-

and experience. The news from the

MELONS TO BE PLENTIFUL,
Reports From Growers Along York
River, Va. Indicate Big Crop.

Reports received by Capt. Dave
Faunce of this city from the water
melon growers on the York river, Va,
state that the outlook for a plentiful
crop is good, but that owing to the
continued cool nights the melons are
maturing slowly and that it will be
the first days of August before pick
ing them is started. This means that
York river melons will not be on the
market until about August or s.,
when vessels loaded to the waters
edge with the fruit will arrive here.
Usually the first melon-laden craft
arrives here the latter part of July,
sometimes coming from North Caro-
lima. but more often from the vicinity
of Norfolk.
While no advices have been received
by the dealers it is generally believed
that the first melon-laden vessel will
arrive here some time the last week of
this month. In the rebuilding of the
municipal wharves. the old oyster
wharf has been left undisturbed. and
over it the watermelon traffic will be
handled this late summer and fall
Georgia melons are now on sale at the
