laugh. while not particularly musical, is
indicative of his good nature.
In the jungles of Africa, where mil
lions Of them swing from tree to tree,
most Of the time Is spent in amusing
themselves. So great is their delight
when playing games that they express
their Joy by drumming on tree trunks.
When resting after an exciting chase
they assume a sitting posture, and will
often stand up, stretch themselves and
walk off If they know you are watch
ing them they go on all fours. Buds Of
trees, nuts and roots supply them with
focd, and when the supply is exhausted
in cne spot, they move on. building
new nest-hut upon arriving. These
homes are placed 80 to 40 feet from the
ground. They are made by bending
the branches together and weaving 9TH
ers in expertly to make them waterproof
and safe against intrusion.
Chimpanzees mate for life. They
make devoted parents and are extreme
ly fond of each other. They sit for hours
with arms about each others shoulders
and kiss each other with ringing
smack. Dressing up Is one OF their
chief forms of amusement when in
captivity.
In spite OF their love of freedom they
do not seem to resent being in prison
This may be accounted for by the fact
that there is always something going
on in the new life about them and there
is nothing that pleases champanzee
more than to be in crowd, learning
new tricks and perfecting old ones.
Life in a heated, close ZOO is too
much for these little, lovable creatures,
and three to five years is the limit of
endurance with them. They are easily
taught to drink from cup and use a
knife and fork. Soft drinks are their
weakness, and variety of strange food
is too much for their digestive ap-
paratus.
Father Chimpanzee is truly the head
OF his family in the jungle. When
danger threatens. he will place the
baby in its mothers arms and stand
guard before them. When aroused, he
is good fighter and from the sounds
he makes Is calling his antagonist all
manner of uncomplimentary names.
When little sister or brother arrives the
father takes care of the older child and
takes his turn holding the new baby.
Watching chimpanzee mother nurse
her child and put 1t to sleep Is one of
the most interesting sights to every
visitor at zoo and rarely ever do you
find the space before the cage empty.

@HATTERER the Red Squirrel
4 thought his eyes must be play
II ing him tricks when he first
~ saw that old stump which he
had been using as temporary
storehouse torn all apart and his store
of nuts gene. But they hadn't been
playing him tricks. What he seemed
to see he did see The pieces of that
stump we're scattered all about. Chat
terer didn't even have to guess what
had happened: he knew. He knew as
well as If he had been there and seen
1t done.
1T was that big black robber, Buster
Bear. He did this" snarled Chatterer,
and his little eyes were red with rage.
He thinks that because he is so big he
can do as he pleases and rob honest
folk Of the results Of their hard work,
the old thief" Chatterer was forgetting
entirely the times he had robbed his
cousin, Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel,
when he had CHANGED to find one OF
his storehouses.
He poked around in the remains of
the old stump, but all he found was
one little nut that Buster had over
looked. Then he noticed that the
Black Shadows were beginning to steal
into the Green Forest. Even If he
hurried it would be dark by the time
he reached home. There was nothing
to be gained by staying here. So, with
bitter thoughts for company, he started
for home as fast as he could travel,
fearful that Hooty the Owl might al
ready have begun his nightly hunting.
as indeed he had. But he didn't come
Chattelcr's way and he reached home
safely.
"A whole day wasted and all those
nuts lost" he muttered as he curled
up to s.eep. for he was very tired.
The next morning he felt better. He
could even grin at his own misfortune.
Il hope that black old thief will keep
away today" he muttered. "He ought
to be satisfied after eating all those
nuts he robbed me of besides those he
found l wonder II he found that
stump Just by chance. Anyway he
found it and got the nuts and prob
ably has been laughing at me ever
since. / suppose I would have done
the same thing had been in his place.
It Is the law OF the Green Forest that
each may take what he is smart enough
to find and can take. I've got plenty
of food even without those nuts, but
I guess I can get some more If work
hard. There are many still on that
tree and no one else is likely to get
those. I do hope the Merry Little
Breezes will stay away today. If they
should happen along it would be Just
like them to shake all those nuts
down."
As he expected he found Lightfoot
the Deer, Mrs. Lghtfoot. Thunderer
the Grouse, Mrs. Grouse and their two
grown children already there. This
morning he did not quarrel with them.
He didn't try to drive them away He
was satisfied to let them have what
nuts they could find on the ground.
First he had to find a new store
house, for he must have some place
to store those nuts, place near enough
so that little time would be wasted in
running back and forth. He found 1t
almost at once, and where do you think

WHY LEAP YEARS?

The fact that the earth does not
make revolution around the sun in
an even number of days has caused
much difficulty in making calendar
that would hold good over any con-
siderable length of time. In fact, such
a calendar has never been devised, but
the one in present use is accurate
enough for practical purposes.
In reforming the calendar in AZ B. c.,
Julius Caesar considered year to be
365 u days, so he added day every
four years to take up the fractional
excess. But the true year is only 365
days, hours, 48 minutes and ASH
seconds, so that in the course of time
the Julian calendar, based on year
some II minutes too long, became more
and more inaccurate. To correct this,
Pope Gregory in 1882 caused 10 days
to be dropped from the calendar, and
also modified the rule for leap years
by emitting the extra day from the
ending year of each century except
those exactly divisable by 400.
Thus the year 1000 was a leap year,
while the years 100, 1900 and 1900 were
not; 1000 will be leap year, and so
on. Even with this correction there will
be an error of one day in 1923 years.
q discrepancy hardly great enough to
worry about.
One advantage of leap year is that
persons born on February 20 have a
real birthday anniversary only once In
four years-if that is a disadvantage
Based on the law of averages, only one
person in about 1,461 would be thus
handicapped.
