not only safeguards agricultural lanes
against damage from the elements
and benefits the climate, but IT t so
affords a direct, wellpaying business.

HER0NS CLING TO OLD HOMES
Their Dwellings In Rotterdam Invaded
They Take Refuge In citys
Geological Gardens.

The gray herons of Rotterdam, ia
mlllars Of the city for centuries, have
gradually, according to q correspond
ent Of the Times of London, been
pushed out Of their old territories to
make way for the growth of the port.
The waters had been gathered into
canals, the spaces began to dry, and
5 little by little new streets built on
piles invaded the heron ground. Her.
OnS, unlike Storks, do not take to
the dwellings of men. but they cling
desperately to their nesting places,
the elms and the willows of the boule-
wards. Finally ousted, they preserved
but one refuge and that the Geological
gardens, which In 1857 was establish
ed on one of the reclaimed areas.
Some of the herons were put In an
aviary and some of the wild ones,
watching the proceeding, set up house
In the elms close by. And so 1t came
about that Rotterdam Geological gar
dens can proudly lay claim to a nat
ural heronry in their gardens. But
since 1857 Rotterdam has grown, and
the parent birds have now four miles
to fly to reach the waters for food
for their nestlings. They cover the
distance by day and night over the
tramways, railways, and the noise and
smoke of a city, the return to the
nest marked by the usual outburst of
welcoming cries from the voracious
young.

The question of whether it would
ever be possible to shoot projectile
into space, that is to say entirely off
the earth, has long been the subject
Of discussion. In detailed scientific
paper on the German long-ranged gun
which bombarded Paris last spring,
Major ]. Naturalization, writing In
the Journal of the Royal Artillery,
says the requisite velocity of such
gun is not so very much higher than
what has already been achieved; viz,
n muzzle velocity of a mile per second.
When we are able to increase this to
five miles per second, the projectile,
IL fired at suitable angle, will travel
around the earth as a grazing satellite,
completing its orbit between II and IL
times daily. With velocity of about
seven miles a second, 1t will move off
int space, never to return.

HAD LARGE CROWD
Memorial Day Fittinsly Oh
served In RathdTum.

Memorial exercises in Rathdrum
last Sunday were carried out as
planned. The parade to the GENE.

their head, marched in column cf
twos to the cemetery, followed by
citizens on foot and in autos.
Olive drab uniforms predominated,
and the navy was represented by

and it was the first time since old
national guard days that so many
Rathdrum men in uniform had
turned out in body.

ceremonies were held as on former
like occasions.
A large crowd enjoyed the after
noon program, at Fraternal hall, a
considerable number being present

features of the program were the
two numbers entitled "Goldenrod
and Fleur de lis" and "The Rose
of No Mans Land". In the one
a group OF young girls clad in
paper dresses of goldenrod repre-
sented America and another group
in the color of the heur de lis
represented France. In "The
Rose of No Mans Land" a tribute
to the Red Cross nurse, young
girls appeared successfully on the
stage, each speaking an appropriate
verse, and representing and carry
ing the flags of eight countries
whose peoples were arrayed on the
side of the allies in the recent war.
In the final scene the two groups
merged. With exception OF few
quotations, the words for both
and the general arrange
ment were by Miss Mertie Tucker,
who has received numerous COM

of the program.
Two selections by the juvenile

PLEASED WITH RESPONSE OI
 WRITERS

Dear Sisters of The Corner: have been greatly pleased to se e some of those writ CTS who have been issing from 1ne Cor ner so long respond to the call. It seems quite as it should when they write and as if to answer the query of another sis ter as to where the brothers were we got a quick reminder that they are amongst us, though too much like she traditional listeners.
 There are many new writers but while We are getting acquainted with them there are many more of the familiar pen names that ought to be heard from. We don't half appreciate this opportunity of talking with and helping each other.
 I hoEe the new writers as +hey join will not feel satisfied with writing one CT two letters and then stcrping We need their help, their advice and their good cheer I thought it was fine of those two sisters, onu in Tennessee and another in Florida, to take the time to write to The Corner, and through it to the sisters and brothers so far away I enjoyed the letters great ly.
 I should think Ma of Greene Gables was the champion squash pie maker Of The Corner I should like to know how she makes them.
 Thls is my pumpkin pie: Two cups of cooked, or canned, pumpkin, one-half cup brown sugar one-half cup white sugar, three eggs one teaspoon each ginger, cin- namon and nutmeg one-fourth tablespoon salt.
 Mix the sugar, spices and salt. Beat the eggs and add to pumpkin, using it just as it comes from the can if it is canned pumpkin Mix the liquid and dry materials and bake in large pastry-lned pie plate. This Die will serve six.

WRITING TO THE CORNER.

Dear Corner Writers: For several weeks l have been trying to get time to drop a line to The Corner. 1 think the idea of writing at least twice a year is a good one but l don't like a hard and fast rule of that kind. I think it is better to write often and I make it point to say 8 word to The Corner, even though it is only word, frequently enough so I'll not be rated a new member every time my letter appears.
 Just at this time of year we don't feel that our special dinners are quite com plete without cranberry sauce. Most peo- pie are especially fcrd of cranberries and use them in many ways.
 Cranberries are really better cooked and served whole than cooked and strain ed, as is now often done. Put On the cranberries in a saucepan, cover with just enough water to keep from burning When about half cooked, add the sugar. Stir as little as possible, so as not to break the berries any more than can be helped. Served in this way all the good of the cranberry is preserved.
 Here is a way of using cranberries in combination with apple. Pare and core the apples, put in baking pan, fill the hole from which the apples core was taken with cranberry sauce, cover all wltl, 8 sprinkle of fine sugar. Sake in a slow oven. The cranberry will color and flavor the apple. When cold, add a spoonful oi whipped cream. In Scandinavia, where they invented this dish, they gave it the poetical name of fire and snow'' The best wishes of the season. O.I. c.
