The Skimmers Arrive.

"Well, 1t is occupied" retorted Mrs.
Winsome, land you'll have to look
elsewhere for q house"
Just then Skinner alighted close
by. Have YOU found house that
suits you, my dear?" he asked.
"Yes," replied Mrs. Skinner. Eyes,
I have, but it is occupied. Mrs. Blue
bird is in here now. and I suspect she
has eggs. I told you we ought to get
up here sooner"
There are other houses" replied
Skinner. 1T can't be that all are oc-
cupied yet. You really haven't looked
around, my dear"
II don't have to look around. This
is the house I want" declared Mrs.
Skinner.
But you can't have it," replied
Skinner
Just then Winsome Bluebird re-
turned. He saw the two Swallows at
his house and he didn't stop to ask
questions. He flew at them angrily
OF course, he wasn't able to strike
either one of them, for you know how
quick on the wing they are. At once
began another unpleasant scene In
the Old Orchard. The Skimmers
circled and swooped at Winsome
Bluebird as if it were their house and
he was the interloper, and such ar
angry chattering and screaming as
there was. 1t brought Mrs. Winsome
to the doorway, where she sat ano

the Skimmers.
After a while the Skimmers flew
away. They made the round Of tn,
other houses that Farmer Browns
Boy had put up. One after another

some the entrances were too small
You see, those houses were designed
for Tommy Tit the Chickadee ant

were not situated to suit Mrs. Skim
mer: they were too far in the Oh

declared Mrs. Skinner. That hous'
where the Winsome Bluebirds are L
just what want. 1t is on the las
tree on that side of the Old Orchard
and there is no dodging under ant

But it seems we can't have It.,

They love to look into the water to
gaze at their refectiors. You can
hardly blame them. Besides, they are
among the first trees to respond to
the call of Spring. Their stiff cat
kins become timber and grow long,
while the purplish brown scales you
noticed late in the Winter separate
to expose the yellow antlers. The
scarlet tips of the pistils are in readi-
ness to receive the pollen showered
down upon them by the agency Of the
wind and even slight breeze
During these days, the alders are
shaking out clouds of yellow powder
from their tassels The surface of
the water where many aIders grow,
has a fine film of pollen upon its
face, as it wanders toward the sea.
In a very short time, the pollen
clouds have cleared up, and the tas-
sells dry up and soon tumble to the
ground The seed children are being
developed. Late in the Autumn they
will be ripe. There are two seeds on
each scale The clusters of dark,
small, conelike fruits make it easy for
you to Identify them any time of the
year.
In many places these alders form a
thicket. In the late Autumn they
show their family connections with
the birches and hazels by their many
white dots. Also look. for their scaly
catkins which they have developed
during the Summer. The leaves are
typical. too and you can see how easy
3 is to remember them.
There are 20 species of shrubs and
tfees in the genus Alnus. There are
nine in North America. six of which
are trees. The largest member is the
black alder of the Old World, which
yields valuable timber.
Man and animal, besides the wind,
assist In distributing the alders. 1t is

much occupied at home, for she now
had eggs in the big ungainly nest
under the caves of Farmer Browns
barn. So Mrs Winsome sat on her
precious eggs undisturbed. The Blue
birds were the first to have eggs in
the Old Orchard this year.
Then one morning Winsome poked
his head in at the doorway. MY
dear" said he, the Swimmers have ar
rived" He meant the Tree Swallows.
I'm glad we got here first" replied
Mrs. Winsome. Those Skimmers
sometimes make an awful fuss about
choosing a house. 1t would have
been just like them to have wanted
this one"
Winsome went to look for some
food, and hardly had he left when
Mrs. Skinner alighted in the door

sleek little head inside. oh" said
she, its you!"

"Alder, the owner of all waterish

~HIS alder is the member to be
found near the spots of en-
chantment, beloved of small
Il boys, such as open swamp, riv-
erside. brooks and swimming holes.
These alders are tall for shrubs,
much brarched, and have a lovely,
red-brown bark. Sometimes you will
find one as high as 20 feet. If you
are an expert, you will find several
species in one location. They look
very much alike. In company with
them are often found their charming
cousins. the hazels. Both belong to

West opened the king Of clubs. South
won with the ace in the dummy and
now counted one diamond, one spade,
and at least one heart loser, and hence
realized that q four-one trump break
would make 1t very dificult for him
to fulfill his four-heart contract.
However. he decided to take some
slight measures against this posi-.
bility. Accordingly, he played q low
club from dummy, and ruffed In his
own hand. He now laid down the ace
and king Of hearts, and sure enough
his fears were realzed-East had four
trumps.
South's next play was the king Of
spades, and East was already end
played. East decided to stay on with
the ace, since, should he win the
trick, he would have no good play.
South now led Q low heart.
East cashed his queen and jack
of trumps. and had no escape. As
the least Of all possible evils, he led
his third best diamond, which was
allowed to run around to the jack in

turned and the queen finessed, where
upon South conceded the last spade
trick. thereby fulfilling his four

South's play Of the low club from

Location Is Obstacle.
The big obstacle both among the
doctors and among the members of
the General Assembly, is going to be
the location of the school,, most OBJ
servers already agree. It. is recalled
that back in 1923 or 1924, a movement
for a state medical school was launch
ed, that Duke or Rockefeller, or both
were prepared to give large sums to-
wards the establishment of the school
which was to be unit of the Uni
versity of North Carolina. But the
whole thing fell through when 10th
the commission set up to study the
question and the larger cities in the
state got into a squabble as to where
it was to be located. Charlotte and
that immediate section were strong
for the school if it was to be located
in Charlotte, but opposed to if if To-
Gated anywhere else. The same thing
was true of WinstOn-Salem, Green's
boro, Raleigh and even Durham
since Duke had not yet been founded.
1t was this sectional and inter-city
squabble over the location of the med
ical school which finally killed the
proposal and which gave J. B. Duke
the idea of starting his own univer-
sity, including a medical school.
