"How delicious meal we do have
often Of perhaps seal or perhaps wal
rus. Both those are delicacies for
any polar bear.
"And we can capture them. We
are stronger and we are so clever and
SO wild and quick we can capture
them and kill them and then eat
them with relish and with JOY.
"But while it is good to think OF
all the fine meals of walrus and seal
have had, and while it Is good to
know that there will be more Of those
meals, the joyful thought I have now
Is to know that before long my little
cubs will arrive.
"And they will be quiet with their
old mother while they are young and
the winter Is hard.
"But they will be strong enough
when the spring comes to follow me
along and jump right into the icy
water after me and swim about in it.
sometimes they can jump in very,
very young, but will wait with my
cubs until the weather is springlike
which means that I will wait until
the ice is breaking up into great packs
and gigantic pieces.
"Spring to a polar bear doesn't
mean warm weather and such things
as buds and flowers and soft breezes {;
It means the Ice sailing along in enor-
nous pieces, floating down the rivers
and down the coasts Of the sea.
"But no one will harm my babies.
No, mother polar bear loves her lit
tie cubs and she will protect them
| with her own life. Nothing is SO
much to her as their lives.
"Ah, It is so wonderful to wait for
them, and soon I will see the little
dears, or the little dear as the case
may be.
"And when I take them out into the
great world I will be able to hold
them safely between me and my fore
legs when I'm swimming, If there is
danger around and IL anyone should
shoot.
"For, II they were well out Of the
way by the time the bullet hit me
they would be able to swim to safety
before they could be captured.
"But I am a quick swimmer and
they won't get me. No, old Mothei

League. and the All-siars, composed Of
the pick OF the other three teams OF the

bringing together the Grace second
team and the ST. Pau's quintet.
The Grace flrst team won the cham
pionship OF the Church Y. NJ. C. A.
League with plenty TO spare. and in
some quarters. Tubby Gallagher's fly-
ers are looked upon as State cham
pions. Not inferior in personal bril-
liancy, however, Is the All-stsr com
bination. II Is an open question wheth-
er or not the All-stats can muster suf-
ilcient team work tonight TO defeat the
league champions.
The All-slars WIN lineup: Lindsay
Captain Lowrey and Strebb, guards
two to be chosen; Rutter. center; Johr
Pierson. forward. and Marion Mlnker
forward. All OF these men are well
known IN local basketball circles. The
Grace team will use its strongest line
up.
Although the strength OF rae ST.
Paul's quintet is little known. the sup
porters Of that club say that Grace
seconds are due for a defeat. That
there Is some doubt OF this Is evident
from the fact that the Grace second
team Is said 10 be second only by name
being Of about the same calibre as the
