TOOK ODD BELIEF FOR FACT
Description by Aristotle of Birds That Never Existed Makes Humor-
 ous Reading Today.

Aristotle was one of the greatesr minds of all time. His philosophical deductions and reasoning powers have never been surpassed, but like many another great genius he often made the mistake of accepting common sup positions for truth. He was not him. self an observer, and his dependence led him into ridiculous errors. He wrote in this fashion concerning the phoenix, a fabulous bird which never existed.
 "The Philippians and Indians tell us of birds of varied coloring and inde- scribable; of the phoenix of Arabia, most noteworthy of all. It is de- scribed to be of the size of an eagle, with golden sheen about the neck but purple otherwise, varied with rOseate feathers on a tail of blue, and with tufts beautifying the face and feathery crown and head. Manlius says that in Arabia 1t is considered sacred to the sun and lives for 66O years. When it grows- old it makes itself a nest of cassis and twigs of frankincense. In this 1t dies. Then from its bones and marrow is pro- duced what seems a small worm, but 1t afterward becomes a chick"
 Of the pelican he wrote: When they find their young killed by ser pent they mourn and beat themselves upon their sides, and with the blood discharged they thus bring back to life the bodies of the dead"

GOVERNMENT HUNTER KILLS BIGGEST ARIZ-
 ONA GRIZZLY

The biggest and most notorious grizzly bear in Arizona was killed during the first week in June by a Government hunter employ ed by the Biological Survey of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, after considerable time and effort had been spent in trying to capture him.
 The skin and skull of the bear were turned over to the predatory animal in- spector for the districs, who placed them on exhibit for a few days in a prominent store in Phoenix, Ariz.. and then sent them on to Washington. This bear is positively identified as a grizzly, although it's body was nearly black and it's nose and Hanks were cinna- mon color. It weighed from 1,200 to 1,50O pounds and its skin measured 7 feet 3 inches from tip to tip. When standing on it's hind legs the bear could have stretched up a distance of 8 feet. The skull is Is 1-2 inches long.
 The grizzly's persistent preying on live stock cost cattle owners at least $25,- 900, according to conserva- tive estimates. One man, however, upon whose range the bear lived most of the time expressed the belief that the bear had eaten full ly $75, ,000 worth of his cat tie. The Biological Survey inspector reported that the bear killed 12 head of cattle within one week, among them a pure-bred Hereford bull weighing 1,800 pounds. Cows and young calves, however, were the bears favorite food. He would eat the udder of a COW or the stomach of a calf and then killed another animal. He never went back to the carcass a second time.

Body of Gillander
Recovered Saturday
After Long Search

The funeral of Charles Gillander
aged 81, night porter at the Elmwood
who was drowned in the Messalon-
skee stream Friday afternoon, will
be held at 2.30 this Monday after
noon from st. Francis de Sales
church.
The body was recovered at 1855
Saturday morning by Charles Black
a diver for the HollingsWo Il
Whitney Co, who, with IL crew of
three other men. had been secured by
Manager William II. Cook of the
Elmw God.
The body was found in what
searchers believed to be an unlike
ly place, more than 100 yards down
| stream near the eastern bank of the
river. lying face downward head up
stream, at the bottom, with the arms
thrown forward as if to protect the
| face.
The search was made in very
systematic manner. A rope was
thrown across the stream, held at
both ends by Waterville police Off
GERS, turns being taken by Headquar-
tiers Officer Ralph Blunt, and Special
Officers LeClair and Harry RouX. Be-
ginning at the point near midstream
where the body was said to have en-
tered the water, the diver worked
backward and forward, having the
rope moved down stream foot at a
time. Two men were on the air
pump and one held the signal line.
From 8 o'clock until the time the
body was found, Diver Black came up
to rest only four times. Once the
diver became entangled in a tree
partly in the water, and the water
was so muddy that he was forced to
be guided by the sense Of feeling
alone.
Edward Mckenzie of 259 Park
street, Lewiston, an uncle of Mr.. Gill
lender, was located by Manager Cook
and arrived in Waterville Sunday.
The young mans mother and father
are both dead. sister is a nun in
Quebec and there is brother whose
whereabouts are unknown, it was
stated Sunday.

Colby "Oracle" Issued
Noteworthy Yearbook

The Colby Oracle for the year 1929
is just off the press and has been re.
ceived very enthusiastically by the
students of Colby college as the best
oracle that has yet been printed
FROM the outside cover to the final
page the material shows that the
editorial staff were DESTROYS of issu-
ing book that would lie of interest
t" everyone interested in Colby.
The cover of the book is blue with
a silver gray &c" in the center of the
front cover. Within this &c" is an
appropriate design that adds much
to the attractiveness of the covers
All OF the title pages are the result
of the handiwork of Colby students
OF familiar scenes about the campus.
Most of these pictures were taken by
Joseph c. Smith and Walter d. Ber-
ry who are the opcial college camera
Boys. Perhaps the most original
feature Of the book is the pages de-
voted to pictures Of the professors.
Instead of the timeworn convention
al photographs. Smith went into the
classrooms with his Graf1ex and took
pictures of the professors in their
characteristic poses while in the
class room. For titles to these pic
lures the college nicknames of the
professors are used.
The cuts this year are very clear
for the most part and the arrange
ment is good. The Senior pictures
are arranged across the top Of each
page and the writeups of each men,
Der OF the class are placed below the
pictures. This is a change from the
past few years when the pictures
have been arranged on the side of
each page. This new idea has i'm
proved the appearance of this sec
ton of the volume by giving it a
much better balanced effect.
The 1922 Oracle Is dedicated ITO
