THOUGHT FOR SCOUT PATROLS.

There is q nature club for boys in
Ontario which encourages members to
take the names of native birds or an
imals, even fishes and reptiles, using
the Indian version of the name where
possible. Fortunately it does not re-
quire the boys in every case to take
on the characteristics Of their animal
names. But it might be good practice
in nature study to expect every mem
Der to be thoroughly informed upon
the species from which he takes his
club membership name. Each troop
Of boy scouts is divided into patrols
each with a distinguishing name Of a
natural object, usually some wild an
imal and the editor of Scouting" in
commenting on the Ontario clubs idea,
says that this easily leads to the sug-
gestion that patrol names might be
utilized far more than they are. as a
starting point for definite lines Of ma
ture study, leading up to interesting
evenings when members of patrols
present for the benefit of all peculiar
facts about the birds or animals rep
resented in the patrol name.

Some Chinese Riddles.

Chinese riddles are often little bit
harder than American ones. Here
are several interesting ones and said
to have been told to an American boy
by his aunt who was for many years
a missionary in China:
1t was born in a mountain forest
1t died in an earthen chamber. It's
soul dispersed to the four winds, and
its bones were laid out for SALE
Charcoal.
In very small house there live five
little girls.-A shoe.
What is that which sits very low
and eats more grass than a buffalO?-
A Chinese kitchen range (Which is
generally heated with ferns and
grass).
There are two sisters of equal size.
One sits inside, the other outside
A looking glass.
In the front are five openings; on
the sides are two windows; behind
hangs an onion stalk.-A Chinaman's
head with its ''pigtail."
On the outside is a stone wall. In
the inside there is a small golden
lady.-An egg.

SCOUTS IN WINTER CAMPS.

Winter camping for the Boy Scouts
Of America is at last becoming more
popular than summer camping.
Amongst the entire membership of
nearly 100000 boy scouts in the
United States last summer, 100000
were enrolled for summer camps, and
already the national headquarters has
received reports Indicating that the
number enrolled for winter camps and
weekend camps during the winter
months will exceed 100000 members
of the organization. During the
Christmas holidays 165 boy scouts
from Greater New York encamped at
hanohwahke Lakes in Interstate
park, which is the site of the largest
boys camp in the world, where nearly
10000 boys camped throughout the
last summer season. This is the
largest number of scouts that ever
went camping together in the middle
of winter in the northern states.
AT the same time there were winter
holiday boy scout camps in Pawtucket,
r. l.; Lancaster and Wilkes-Barre, Pa.
Omaha and Minneapolis. These were
what are known as "snow camps" At
the same time there were many camps
in the southern and milder climates,
including Miami, Fla; Birmingham,
Ala; Los Angeles, and in many other
sections of the South. In the ex-
treme South it has been found that
the winter months are preferable to
the summer months for camping and
there the principal training camps of
the year are held in these months.
There are many reasons why winter
camps in the North are becoming so
popular. They give opportunity for

"And the Lambs"

family, and many visitors coming to
The zoo think I'm fine looking bird.
"The keeper, too, thinks am fine

1--WE wedge-tailed eagles build our
nests out ot a great mass of sticks,
and we place them in the tallest of for
eSt trees.
"Yes, in the great forests we live,
and in the highest trees. We love the
great heights. These are our ways,
and yet there are creatures who like
to crawl on the ground and who like
to live in holes, and even creatures
who like to live underground.
'And we go to the highest points
Of the highest trees"
''Yes, it is as you say" the Eared
Vulture admitted. Birds and animals
and people are very different in their
ways. And it is well for different
creatures to tell their own stories, for

them:
"'Ah, you may look at me now, but
you wouldn't be given that chance if 1
were free, for I'd not be making
friends. I'm not friendly by nature
I'm ugly in my looks" the Eared
Vulture went on, land I'm not sociable

with you any more than you care
about being friendly with me-"

EARED VULTURE.

"They say" said the Eared Vulture,
that the flapjack turtle here in the
zoo feels very safe. 1t is said that
many have been the f1apjack turtles
who have been eaten down South.
But what do [ care for safety?
only think of the days when 1 was
solitary and alone. l think Of those
days"
I'm sure you do" said the Wedge
Tailed Eagle from Australia. His
brother near him was from Tasmania.
'Now, it is most interesting" said
the WedgeTailed Eagle, ito think of
how differently we all act and of what
different things we like.
81, for example, am one of the finest
OF eagles"
'It is strange" said the Barred Vul-
ture, "but when folks or creatures
start talking they always talk more
about themselves and what they think
and what they do than anything else.
"That is almost always the way"
"It is quite natural it should be the
way" said the Wedge-Tailed Eagle.
Folks and creatures know more
about themselves than they do about
others. They know more of their own
ways and their own thoughts.
''They don't know others thoughts
so well, not nearly so well.
"Yes, 1 think that is quite natural.
Now to continue about myself, for l
know myself better than l know other
creatures, l am one of the finest Of
eagles. I feed on kangaroos and
lambs"
81 don't suppose the kangaroos and
the lambs would call you one of the
finest of eagles" said the Eared Vul-
| ture with q harsh laugh.
