Nature Study Hikes
At Camp Sheldon
BY HENRY SMITH.

Probably one of the most inter-
esting things at Camp Sheldon this
summer was the nature study hikes,
which were conducted every day
by Mv. Arnold. One-fourth of the
camp went on these hikes at
time, and before the period was
over, every boy had been on two
hikes. One was for the study Of
birds and the other for the study
of trees.
A boy before going to camp might
not have thought much about birds
or trees, but after going on one or
two Of these hikes he looked upon
these wonders of nature in differ
ent light.
1t is very interesting to see how
the birds build their nests and feed
and care for their young, and to
watch them in their flight as they
dive and dart through the air. Mr..
Arnold told US many interesting
things about birds. He said that
some Of the larger birds can travel
faster than an airplane, and that
they are so built that no improve
ment could possibly be made on
them. Birds help the farmers in
many ways, eating the insects that
harm the crops. A bird noted for
this is the fly catcher, who flies and
catches them in his bill.
Our hike for tree specimens was
of different nature. We needed 10
different kinds of leaves to pass s.ss
on nature study, and every boy tried

~ Men Shift Duty
For Swimmer; Mac and
Arnold on Vacation

The secretaries Of the Boys divi-
sion of the "Y' have made another
shift for the next two weeks. Mr..
Micklewright returned from Camp
Sheldon Friday and will be seen at
the Boys division for the next two
weeks before going on his vacation.
Mr.. Arnold, assistant boys work
secretary, has returned from con-
ference at Lake Geneva, and has
many ideas for the boys this fall. He
will leave this week on his vacation.
He will spend most of his time at
his home in Kansas. Upon his re-
turn, Micklewright will take his va
cation. Micklewright is planning on
taking much-needed rest at his
home in Davenport, Ia, and also on
visiting several boys camps which
are in progress at different places
in that state.
Mac Gilman, who has been in
charge of the boys division during
the absence of Mick1ewright and
Arnold, left Friday on an extended
motor tour in the east. He is ac-
comparing r. S. Flower, general
secretary of the local "Y." They ex-

Couldn't we get the gasoline that

Ounce.
Big folks don't throw away gaso-

besides if they did, gasoline dries up
so quickly we'd never be able to get
it.

the Cowboy. "You can find oil
almost any place on the street where
it has dripped from the big automo-
biles."
"Now that's the very idea I'm

Most of the things needed for

Of Fashion.
"We'd have to have more than one
auto if we all took trip" said the
Turk.
"We could build couple Of big
trucks suggested Paddy Pinn.
They'd be more practical than just
passenger autos. for we could use
them for hauling things, and they
could be used for the army, too."
Under the direction of the Turk
and Paddy Pinn the little people
carried many nails, screws, wire, bits
of copper and brass, and piled them
in a great heap near the tool house.

Intelligent Pet Crane

Mrs. Louis H. Toussaint of Rio
Vista Plantation, Rio, Fla, is the
owner of an extraordinary pet in the
shape of large crane that answers
to the name of Jacqueline. The bird
is now 9 years old. Until it was
7 years of age it was called Jack.
At that time it laid its first egg.
Mrs. Toussaint writes that the crane
is exceedingly intelligent. She says'
II wish you could hear this birds
conversation. She chuckles ami
laughs, talks and scolds. She hay'
found many rattlesnakes. We go
exploring and when she finds the
snakes we both yell and my hus-
band knows it is time to run with

it the bird just dances around and
chuckles. When the wild cranes
come here to visit she flies at them
in a fury and drives them away. She
is chief boss on the place. When
she sees dog or cat or strangers
she calls u.s." Jacqueline has the
run of the house just like dog,
and her mistress says that she
dances every evening and that she
gets into all sorts of nischief.-Na-

Unlucky Shadows

At Soochow, China, an American
oil company had all the ground for
its building, except for one small
square. The owner refused to sell
because the building to be erected
would cast an "unlucky" shadow on
the next lot, which he also owned.
The Yankee manager almost de-
SPARED when Chinese assistant
heard of the difficulty. He visited a
geomancer-a sort of soothsayer,
supposed to interpret the wishes of
the natives-and returned with a
drawing of cheap bamboo tower,
which was put on spot selected
after an entire day spent in pacing
and measuring.
No sooner was the structure COM
pleted than the owner of the COW
eted property called on the manager
of the oil company and offered to
sell.
The reason for the Chinaman's
speedy change of mind was that the
bamboo tower was so placed as to
cast an "unlucky" shadow on the
house that occupied the desired lot.

Bubbles" !"

Seated at the window with soap bub.( I
bic in hand,
I watched the airy bubbles float int
an unknown land,
And thought how nearly the same
we're they
As the staggering air castles build
every day.
When upon my pipe lightly blow
A fairy-like bubble appears, white al
snow;
Perfectly poised for a second it lays
Then vanishes into the air always.
So it is with the air castles that I
build up so high,
With grand towers that reach nearly
up to the sky;
! gaze at them dreamily for mo-
ment or so, ....
Then tottering to the ground they
will go.
Then with regret will I sorrowfully
recall
The reasons my air castles so sud5
denly fall;
But in silent meditation which ne'er
is in vain,
Resolve to build stronger air castles
again.
Air castles deceive one--they seem to
be strong
When down in heap they totter
along.
But with the soap bubbles, though
vanish will they,
I am always sure of their natural
way.
So here's to the days when rain /
drenches the earth
And outdoor fun holds for us no
mirth.
Then gladly we'll blow our soap
bubbles away
Till the sun returns with another
bright day.

hear no more, for he was so faint
when he heard OF the danger his
life was in; but there was hope,
because it was very dark in there
and probably the men would not
see him. They entered. threw the
bags Of money on him and left the

jumped up and ran as fast as he
could. There was no time to spare,

Making my dreams come true.

Onward it comes and onl
Soothing my heart with music rare,
Out of the setting sun.

And back my ship goes, to its
