personal friends Of Sir John, won the sympa-
thetic interest Of the entire world. Approx
mately 40 expeditions in all, both large and
small, followed each other, year after year.
Many Of them ended in disaster, and it was
not until 1854 that the Hudson Bay Co. search
ing party commanded by DR.. Rae reported
having talked with group Of Eskimos who
said they had seen q party Of white men sew
eral years before dragging their heavy boats
and sledges over the ice to the southwark. In
the sign language these men had indicated TO
the Eskimos that their ships had been crushed
in the ice Later on the natives discovered the
boats and the graves Of many Of these men,
they declared and in proof of their story they
produced silver spoons and forks which be-
longed to the missing explorers. Rae and his
party were thereupon paid the reward Of $50
600 offered by the British government for
tdings of the expedition.
It was the expedition of Capt. Leopold Nc
Clintock, commanding the yacht Fox, which
brought to light the course and fate of the
Franklin followers. With a crew Of "a, the
Fox expedition, QUILTED by Lady Franklin (the
eighteenth to be dispatched in search Of her
illustrious husbandD, set out from England.
They were beset by the ice late In the Sum-
nner Of 1860, and were marooned for $50 days In
the ice packs Of Bafin Bay and Davis Strait,
during which time they drifted some ! 400
miles. The following Summer they were freed

The diet Of the great blue herons was stated

it are several other enemies Of fishes 80 dragon

waterbugs IN . and predactous diving beetles

found in the food were snakes, frogs, sAla-
manders including the mud puppy, and leeches.
The salamanders, leeches and water snakes also
are classed as enemies Of fishes.
The Biological Survey finds that the great
blue heron takes O considerable number q
small mammals also, especially meadow mice.
Meadow mice were found In 8, other mice IN
4. and shrews In Of the $50 stomachS re-
ported upon. Many observers in Western States
have commented on the destruction Of harm
full rodents by great blue herons, and IN 1889
O law was passed In California protecting the
bird on account Of its feeding on pocket gophers
and ground squirrels
The great blue heron is known, however, to
be destructive about fish hatcheries. and the
Department Of Agriculture has issued an order
permitting the control Of this and other nsh-
eating birds at such places. On the other
hand. In localities away from hatcheries. It Is
certain that the bird ordinarily consumes q
much larger number Of fishes not utilized by
man than It does Of those that are. Among
these, as has been noted are numerous spawn
eating fishes, which If allowed to live. probably
would do more harm to game and commercial
fishes than does the heron Taken IN connec-
ton with other hsh enemies destroyed by the
heron the Biological Survey states that there
Is little doubt that the bird does more good
than harm under natural conditions.

by the breaking up Of the ice. After returning
to Greenland for coal and provisions they
headed for King william Land Early in Feb
ruary, 1861, Capt McClintock and Capt. Young
set out with two parties to establish the route
taken by the Franklin survivors in their retreat
southwark, and to communicate with the
BoOthia Eskimos IN the vicinity Of the North
Magnetic Pole.
Near Cape Victoria, on the western shore Of
Boothia, McClintock was told by Eskimos that
a few years before q ship had been crushed In
the ice Of the north coast of King William
Land, that all her crew had reached land and
that they had travelled across the Great Fish
River. But there. the Eskimos said, they had
died. McCintock and one Of his officers Lieut..
Hobson, thereupon proceeded to explore King
William Land, McClintock on the eastern side
and HobSon on the western.
McClntock found no fragments Of wrecks, no
human skeletons or camp sites, until within 10
miles of Point Herschel, where he found
single bleached skeleton. But from the west
ernmost point of King William Land to Cape
Felix he met with painful evidence of the suf-
fering and calamities that had overtaken the
Franklin followers.
AT one Eskimo village near the North

mn wrathful expressions because Of the
presence Of blue heron and other birds
in his favorite fishing waters believing
that the birds are responsible for the
Door fishing conditions he may find It Is more
than likely that he Is attacking an ally rather
than an enemy.
Wondering what becomes of the immense
numbers Of trout fry that are planted In
streams, anglers naturally attribute their dis
appearance 10 the enemies that are most OBJ
vious, and they are particularly likely 70 blame
the larger fsh-eating birds, such Is the herons.
Studies Of trout streams by the Biological Board
Of Canada, however, show that the greatest
losses in trout fry are caused by enemy and
competitor fishes Few realize what serious de-
stroyers Of spawn there are among the fishes
themselves, such sticklebacks, sculptns, suck
ers minnows and the like.
After Matching, the little fishes are decimated
by cannibahstic attacks, Of which none are
worse than those Of the trout and other game
fishes themselves. Besides the fish enemies OF
fishes the streams TEEN with insect and other
enemies, such as the larvae of the prediciouS
diving beetles, or water tigers" nymphs Of
dragon flies, giant water bugs and crawfshes.
All such flsh enemies In turn are preyed upon
by birds, and it Is probable, except ct fish
hatcheries, that in most cases flsh-eating birds
more than make up for the harm they do In
eating valuable fishes by their destruction Of
natural enemies Of the whole fish tribe.
Illustrating the food habits Of the group Of
fsh-eating birds by those Of the great blue
heron. which Is one OF the largest and most
conspicuous Of the number, the Biological Sur
vey states that in $50 stomachs examined, COM

times. as follows: Eel, 1; grunt, 1; pickerel, 2;
trout, g.; sunfshes, 10; yellow perch, IS, and
catfish, II times mere consideration Of
these numbers would give an impression ad-
verse to the bird, were it not for the fact that
sunfshes are not of great value either for food
or sport, and catfish are notorious spawn eaters.

the golden opportunities of OPPORTUNITY?
So, ponderng the wealth of OPPORTUNITY
that beckons and awaits our boys and girls in this

we are informed depend upon force to attain their

AS long as human life exists upon this planet
earth there will be need for things to sustain it. there
will be need for food raiment and shelter plus com
fort and luxury. The ONLY means of distributing the
physical resources of this earth equally nearly so

possible, with high moral and mental intelligence
Knowing this, it is the task of the adult popula-
