"H0MING INSTINCT" IN BIRDS
the Same as 10 Evidenced
In Humanity.

The habit of birds in migrating
South when winter comes on is in
fiuenced by the need Of finding suf-
ficient supply of food. AS food grows
scarce when winter approaches in the
farthest northern places where birds
live they naturally turn to the South,
where, their instinct tells them, food,
will be plentiful. The return Of the
birds in the spring to their accustomed
haunts in the North is one Of the evil
dences of their possession Of an In
stinct which is also strong in man.
The environment in which bird or
human being is brought up generally
becomes a permanent part Of its ma
ture. Ornithologists have not yet
made it clear just what enables the
bird to find its way back and forth to
the same spot every year. and our
knowledge is confined to the fact of
what the "homing instinct does.
After they mate and build their
first nest and bring up their first fam
lily, birds cherish fondness for that
spot much the same as the attach
ment that man feels for his early
home. The spring migration of birds
is their joyful return home after a
temporary sojourn abroad to secure
the means of livelihood

A FOOD DRINK

EXPLOSION WRECKS
WOOSTER THEATER

An explosion Of gas that shook the
city Of Wooster and chased many peo-
pie from their beds at $40 Saturday
morning completely wrecked the in
terror of the Wallace theater, and did
damage aproximating $1,000.
The center Of the explosion was at
the engine of the theater in the small
brick structure at the alley in the
rear of the theater. All of the walls
of this building was connplee wreck.
This damage however, was moth
ing compared to the havoc wrought
in the front part of the theater.
The most serious damage was just
inside the entrance, where the seats
were broken to pieces, and the oper-
ator's booth, just inside and above
the entrance, was blown to hits and
thrown to the floor. The force Of the
explosion a that point was upward,
and great hole was blown through
the roof.
Had the accident occurred when the
theater was in operation "a number
would have undoubtedly been killed.
Repairs will be begun as soon as
the ruins have been inspected by an
expert from the State Fire MarshaPs
Office.

HIGH CARNIVAL IN
PARK TONIGHT

Merry-making will be at high tide
on the public square of Medina to-
night.
Bright camp fires casting CHEEKY
light among the towering trees Of
the park and scintillating in bewilder-
ing prisms from the vari-colored crys-
tai decorations of the huge Christmas
tree; the inspiring voices of children
shouting carols and thrilling with the
joyous ectacy of the hallowed occas-
ion, will create a scene well calculated
to transform the lifelong pessimist
into a veritable living statue Of hope.
Through the enforced absence of
Mrs. Boult by sickness, the festivities
will be under the direction of Miss
Mary Leah ,Gish and Mr.. John Beck.
At 5 o'clock central time the schol-
ars of the schools will assemble at the
park, at which time the bells of the
village will be rung to announce the
beginning of the program. First will
be song by the children, "Come All
Ye Faithful" followed by "Oh Holy
Night" by Miss Gish and chorus. The
children will then sing "Holy Night"
closing with "It Came Upon Midnight"
while circling about the big tree.
Immediately following the program
in the park the children and as many
others as are willing to go will be
conveyed in wagons with racks and
straw to the homes of those who are
unable to leave their homes, a light
to be evidence of their inability. That,
no one may be sighted, it is urged
that all who will be "shut-in" tonight
telephone their names to Mrs. C. E.
Hoover. who will see that those homes
are visited by the happy singers.
Business men of the village have
contributed generously to make the
occasion successful one and through
their generosity 600 boxes of candy
will be given out tonight to the chill
dren first, and to others as long as it
lasts. Santa will be present to at
tend to this feature which will occur
Immediately after the choral singing.
The Christmas tree was presented by
A. l. Root and taken from the pine
grove west of his factory.
The committee upon which has fall
len the responsibility of arranging the
program for tonight are Mrs. Bessie
Hewes, E. R. Root and H. G. Rowe.
They have labored enthusiastically and
their labors will not have been in vain.

FWADSWORTH SCHOOL
ELECTION UPHELD

In his opinion given Wednesday of
this week, in the case of Thos. Auble
VS.. the Board of Education of Wads-
worth Township School District, in
which plaintiff asked to have set aside
the general election held in Wads-
worth, Nov. 2, on the question of the
Capitalization of schools on the ground
that several persons had voted illegal
ly, Judge Mcclure dismissed plaintiff s
petition at plaintiffs costs.
The case was heard by Judge Nc
Clure, Nov. 29, at which time the bal
lots of the election in question were
recounted in open court by o. O. Van
Deusen and W. C. Smith of Medina,
appointed as special commissioners for
that purpose by the court. The re-
suit of the count disclosed a total vote
of 259-120 for Capitalization and 127
against, with 10 blank ballots and 8
marked so indefinitely that the inten-
ton Of the voter could not be ascer-
tanned.
The court appears to base his opin-
ion on the absence Of any evidence to
show exactly where the boundaries of
the Wadsworth township school dis
tricts lie. In summing up, the court
says:
''The lack of any certain means of
showing definitely the boundaries of
the Wadsworth township rural school
district, for which counsel for contes-
tant is not responsible, certainly calls
for remedy by the school authorities
and the court suggests that it be
promptly afforded by the preparation
of map which will definitely disclose
to the public exactly where the lines
of the district are at present located.
The court is satisfied that if any error
was committed in voting at said cleo
ton, it arose from this uncertainty as
to boundary and was not the result of
intentional wrong-doing."

NO CLUE TO LEROY
P. 0. ROBBERS

The yeggs who looted the postoffice
safe at Leroy last Friday morning,
exclusive notice Of which appeared in
the Sentinel of the same morning,
have not been apprehended, neither
has any clue developed as to their iden
tity or subsequent whereabouts.
Details Of the burglary, SO far as
can be learned, in brief are these:
At 2 p. m. Mitchell Meyer, son Of
former Postmaster E. W. Meyer, who
lives beside the postofice, was awak-
ened. He opened the window and
saw three men alight from a rubber
tired buggy and start to jimmy the
them, to "get out of that" Thep re-
piled: "Get your head in that window
and keep still or we will shoot you full
of holes." The boy shut the window
and woke his parents. Meyer, Sr.,
tried to call Seville and Medina by
phone and give the alarm. The yeggs
heard the phone bell ring and began
shooting through the Meyer home, Civ
ing the occupants scare and prevent
ing the alarm being given. After
working an hour the yeggs finished
their job and drove away unhindered.
