Occasionally one actually would get
pushed In, only to turn quickly under
water and bound out again onto the ice
like a cork shot out OF bottle. Then
for some time they would chase one an
other about, seemingly bent on having q
good game, each bird intent on finding
any excuse from being the t1rst in.
Sometimes this would last few minutes,
sometimes for the better part OF an hour,
until suddenly the whole band would
change its tactics. and one Of the number
start to run at full tilt along the edge OF
the fee, the rest following closely on its
heels, until at last he would take clean
header into the water. One after another
the rest OF the party followed him, all
taking on exactly from the spot where
he had entered, and following one an
other so quickly as to have the appear
ance OF lot of shot poured out of
bottle into the water.
"a dead silence would ensue till a few
seconds later when they would all come
to the surface some twenty or thirty
yards out, and start rolling about and
splashing In the water. cleaning them
selves and making sounds exactly like a

so extraordinary was the whole scene

Other Antarctic explorers have re-
ported q penguin recreation conducted In
q manner even more humanlike. Not
only do these birds practise the sports
manslike art Of tobogganing but they con-
struct their own toboggan slides In the
most thorough and Workmanlike manner
The circumstances make II perfectly
plain that their constructive efforts are

ing favorite recreation. The surveyors
or the penguin tobogganing party viii
first select, with real engineering skill,
the most adaptable location for the slide
to be constructed-along the rising shore
line here the gradient is sufficient and
onertnS no serious natural obstacles.
Then the whole party will march, chat
tering. to the top, where the engineer Of
the party will begin operations.
Dropping on his sturdy breast In the
snow, kicking out behind with his short
legs, and padding with his fiipper-like
wings, he ploughs his way along in the
downward direction already carefully sur
veyed. He is followed one by one by the
others of the party, pursuing the same
methods and leaving in their wake q
smooth, well-packed slide. Often the slide
thus painstakingly constructed is half
mile or more in length, winding here and
there down the slope and ending on the
nat beach or shore ice.
When the slide Is finished there is a
great confab and apparent exchange OF
opinions concerning it's merits. Present
ly, led by Engineer Penguin, the party
plod laboriously back to the top, where
there is much excitement and another
confab. Finally Engineer Penguin, ac-
cepting his responsibilities with all the
grace and authority of his human con-
frere, launches himself and toboggans to
the bottom. Seeing that he lands safely,
all the rest OF the party, chattering in
evident delight. follow his example.
That the purpose OF this is recreation,
pure and simple. Is now more than ever
apparent. Again and again the whole
penguin party waddles on its short legs
TO the top and seizes the brief but joyous
pleasure OF the downward rush. This
keeps up until the birds are too tired 70
do any more uphill plodding.
Penguins do not mate until they gather

beginning OF the breeding season. Singly

day at this task she usually scolds him
roundly to make him remember the cor
rect position to keep both eggs warm.
He takes his scolding meekly, and does
his best. He has already, early in his
courtship, felt the weight OF the fair
ones flippers, and is obedient, remem-
bering her charming and dainty later ac-
ceptance of his wooings. Following are
some paragraphs from Dr.. Levick's book
relating to the startlingly human actions
OF penguins:
ut was not unusual TO see q strange
cock paying court to a mated hen In the
absence of her husband until he returned
to drive away the interloper, but ] do not
think that this ever occurred after the
eggs had come and the regular family life
begun, couples after this being perfectly
faithful to one another.
while one of my companions was sit
ting quietly on some single near the
tce-foot, q penguin approached him, and.
after cycling him for little, walked right
up to him and nibbled gently at one Of
the legs OF his trousers. Then It walked
away, picked up a pebble and came back
with 1t, dropping II on the ground by his
side. The only explanation of this oc-
currence seems to be that the rendering
OF the stone was meant as an overture OF
friendship.
"Often a hen would Join in when two
cocks were lighting. occasionally going
FIRST for one and then the other, but !
never saw a cock retaliate on a hen.
Il saw two cocks engaged In a very
fierce fight. After a couple OF minutes
during which each had the other down on
the ground several times, three or four
other penguins ran up and apparently
tried to stop the fight. This Is the only
construction can put on their behavior,
as time after time they kept running In
when the two combatants clinched, push.

making no attempt to fight themselves,
