The North Pole
by Airplane

During all of January and the
greater part of February there Is
no migration of birds. The regular
winter visitors are here, and the
few migrants that stay with us I'M
til December have gone until the
first Of spring. The spring migrants
will not arrive before the latter
part of February and the early
part of March," says DR.. +. F. Bige-
low, in the February issue OF Boys
Life.
1T should not be forgotten that
many birds often counted as mi
grants are with us all the time,
for example, the robin and the
blackbird may occasionally be
found in thickets and groves of
evergreens. A great many people
hail the bluebird as the harbinger
Of spring. but it might better be
called the delight of winter.
Now is the time to feed the
OIlOSs ~ WV SOAAO oCVN0 Va oOOt
and note how thankful the birds
seem to partake of it. Food is
very important matter in a birds
life and especially SO in the winter
If there is plenty Of food, snow may
fall and winds blow but our winter
birds pay little attention to the
weather.
Perhaps one Of the earliest
birds to arrive from the south is
the red-winged black-bird, which
does not go very far south. Most
Scouts do not seem to be aware
that bird nesting begins in late
February. The first to lead off
the line is the great horned owl,
which in favorable seasons builds
its nest in the last week of the
month, evidently having full con-
fidence that the warm weather will
come"

Princess Juliana
May Lose Throne

Juliana, the daughter Of Queen
Wilhelmina and Prince Henry,
may never be Queen Of Holland.
She is not worrying about it now
she is only nine years old-~but
many people in Holland are won
dering what will happen to the
throne of the Netherlands.
The trouble all comes because of
her father, Prince Henry, who isn't
one bit popular in Holland. The
people there didn't like him before
the war, just because of himself,
which was very disagreeable self
they thought; and then after the
war started, they liked him less
than ever because he favored the
Germans, being German hir elf,
and they we're not at all ProGer'
man.
This feeling of dislike has grown
until now it seems possible that
the Queen will have to decide soon
whether she will give up her
throne or her husband. This
means that Juliana would lose
either her future Queenship or her
father, so we see that this is a
very serious matter for the little
Princess. For if the Queen decides
to keep her husband, Holland may
become a Republic and then there
will not be any need for Queens.
Being the only heiress to the
throne, she is very much loved by
all the people and they are inter
ested in everything that she does.
Many Dutch homes have photo
graphs of her, playing with her
toys. The latest one that pleases
the people is one of Juliana out
driving, clasping q Teddy bear
close to her breast.
In the beginning of her doll days
the little Dutch Princess would
have nothing but Dutch dolls,
dressed in the national costume OF
sabots, wooden skirts, and the
rather elaborate head dress. She
scorned to play with q doll sent to
her by the French President sew
eral years ago. because It was
dressed too fancily; however now
she lavishes all her affection on an
American-made Teddy bear. How
could she help but like such q
frowsy, good-natured friend?
Anyway We hope that our little
friend in Holland win not have to
give up either her father or her
throne, don't we?

BY the side of Daniel Boone there
towers another picturesque figure,
Simon Kenton, famous as an In
dian scout, and the hero Of many
startling adventures. His manhood
began with a tragedy. He loved a
girl who was won by his friend.
He fought a duel with his rival.
and believing that he had killed
him, fled from his old home in Vir-
ginia, and under another name
tried to forget his deed in the viii.
derness of Kentucky. But he could
not forget. The burden of that
thought weighed heavily upon his
naturally kind and simple-hearted
nature. Long years afterward, he
ventured to return to Virginia to
visit his family and to bring them
to Kentucky. To his over-whelm-
ing Joy, he found the man he sup
posed he had killed, alive and ready
to be his friend.
More than once he was captured
by Indians. Eight times he was
made to run the gauntlet. Three
times he was tied to the stake to
be burned alive, and every time he
was saved through some unexpect-
ed chance or his own cleverness.
BY his daring GOODNESS, he filled
even the Indians with terror, and
thus he aided much in the settling
of Kentucky. But he too. like Boone
passed away before the advance
Of civilization in Kentucky.-Lone
Scout

The Man Without a Country

This story was written during the
darkest days Of the Civil war, by
Edward Everett, Hale. There was
danger that our union would be
broken.
Aaron Burr was IsisaDpointed
office seeker. Rxrr tried to sep
arate the Up1eed States. He made
his hrs. dashing expedition down
70 lew Orleans In 1906, at Fort
Massac. or somewhere above on
the river. He met. as the Devil
would have 1t, this gay, dashing,
bright, young fellow. Philip Nolan.
Burr then went west. and tried to
get some people, so that he could
set up government with himself
as Emperor.
Philip Nolan. young army offic-
er, was on trial before a court mar
tial for reasonable correspondence.
He refused to make any declara,
ton of loyalty, and when he was
asked II he had anything to say to
show that he had always been
faithful to the United States, he
cried out in a lit Of frenzy: Damn
the United States! I wish | may
never hear Of the United States
again."
l guess he. did not know how the
words shocked the court, half OF
which was made up of officers and
men who had served through the
Revolutionary war.
Then he was sent out to live hts
life forever away from the United
States, as q result OF the terrible
punishment that was pronounced
against him.
He told Danfort that after his
death. he should look In his mo
lan's) Bible. When Danfort open.
ed the book, there was a slip of pa.
per, on which Nolan had written:
Bury me in the sea. It has been
my home, and | love it. But will
not some one set up a stone for my
memory at Fort Adams or at New
Orleans-that my disgrace may
not be more than I ought to bear!
Say on It:
In Memory OF
PHILIP NOLAN,
Lieutenant in the Army of the
United States.
He loved his country as no other
man has loved her; but no man
deserves less at her hands,"
The authors purpose Is to teach
the lesson Of patriotism and to show
that an intelligent love of ones
country is an essential part of the
moral makeup Of well balanced
human being. A lack of such love
! of country is destruction to the hap
piness Of an individual. as a lack Of
love for kindred or home would be.

President Wilson's visit to the
vatican was an historic event. It
was the first call ever paid the

the entrance to the pope's resi-
dence. The lower picture shows
