First let MS liSpel the popular idea
that a whale is IL fish. 1t is NOT a fish.
but an animal. 1t feeds it's young with
milk. And cveE though it lives in the
water il can be drowned. \ fish ex-
tract oxygen from the water and
takes it through it's .illS. But the
whale has to rise to the surface and
get Il supply of oxygen from the air.
When it does this it sponts water to
make room for air, and the fishermen
say. There she blows"

USING MOSS AS DRESSING
FOR WOUNDS In EUROPE

GLASGOW, Sept. S.--The hills of
Scotland are dotted with moss pickers,
women and boy scouts in search of an
added comfort for the wounded SOL
diers. According to the medical au-
thorities turf moss on account Of its
elasticity and great properties for
sucking up liquids, forms most use
full dressing for open wounds. 1t may
also be used as padding for splints.
After the moss is picked ii is cover
ed with absorbant cotton gauze at var
ious Red Cross depots and sent of to
headfuarters in London. Every day
big packages arrive there, telling sill
emily of long days spent in all kinds
of weather in search of the moss. In
many places working parties of wo-
men, who are not skilled with their
needle go out for the day, coming
back in the dusk of evening with great
baskets full.

MARVELLOUS RECORD IS
FOR SAFETY IN RHEIMS

RHEIMS, France Sept S-With a
daily average of 1900 pupils attending
school, above and below ground, in
Rheims during the last eighteen

ment, not single injury or accident
has happened to any of the scholars.

is not more than 2,OOO yards off.
To large extent the classes are
held in the cellars and wine-caves of
the town, in some instances in caves
two stories below the surface of the
street. There the air is more humid
and there is less light than in ordin-
airy schoolrooms above ground, but
otherwise there is little difference in
the conditions of the routine.

ARCHAEOLOGY SCHOOLS TO
TAKE WOMEN STUDENTS

ATHENS, Greece, August S.-The
American and British schools of Arch
aeology in Greece are making prepa-
rations for the accommodation of wo-
men students of the respective schools.
Two new buildings are to be built, one
by each school for the housing of the
women students. The building for the
male students of the American school
has only just been completed. There
is nothing like it for comfort. cleanli-
ness and modern conyeniences in all
Greece. Though at present there are
almost no student of either school, it
is hoped that when the war ends both
the American and British schools will
again be f1ourishing.
The present buildings of the schools
are situated in very beautiful wood
ed park where shade "a rarity in Ath-
ens) is plentiful and excellent tennis
courts at hand.

FOUR HUNTERS Are
DEAD WITH DANGERS.
OF ORANG--OUTANGS|

SURABAYA, Java. Sept. S.-The
latest orang-outang hunt in Borneo
has resulted in the killing of four
hunters, the serious injury of two
others, and the capture of two orang-
outangs for European ZOOS. The ami
mails have been sent to Singapore for
shipment.
The huntsmen headed by Charles
Mayer, an expert in wild animals who
recently arrived in Borneo on a col
Letting expedition for European ZOOS,
set out for the Landak River region to
capture two orang-outangs which
made the adjacent country unsafe for
travellers.
Natives were engaged to fell the
trees within radius of about quar-
ter of a mile of the tree in which the
kant apes had their abode with the
exception of those Immediately sur
rounding it, which were only partly
cut.
Mayer then began cautiously to APP
proach the apes tree, and after sight
ing the animals, which were of i'm
mense size, he gave his men prear-
ranged signal, and with terrific crash
the partly Topped tree fell to the
ground.
A fire of branches was then lit I'M
derneath the apes tree, and when the
smoke had driven the animals to seek
refuge in the topmost limbs some of
the natives began telling the trees,
while others held in readiness two
large nets in which to catch the apes.
The tree swayed and fell, and uttering
savage cries, the two animals, their
long arms tightly clasping one anoth-
er's bodies, came to the ground, anu
the nets were thrown over them
The male orang, contriving to re-
lease one of his arms, clutched Mayer
by the leg and dragged him towards
the net. Mayer defended himself with
an axe, but his lef was broken before
his men could come to his assistance,
and divert the attack by belaboring
the ape with club. The animal then
released his hold on Mayer, and seized
one of the natives, who was killed be-
fore anyone could come to his assist
ance. A second native also fell vic
tim to the fury of the animal, and
while being made to release him the
female orang released her arm from
tie net, and killed two men and Grip
pied a third.
Mayer was carried away unconsc-
icus, and after having been attended
by a native medicine man was brought
to Rynbang in Dutch North Borneo.
lis condition is serious.
Four days later his native servants
arrived there, bringing with them the
two captured orang-outangs which
have since been despatched for ship
ment to Europe.
