The younger generation resembles

When the horned grebe flies it looks
more like duck. But If you will look
closely who will see that the grebe
sticks his head and feet out as far
as he can and the feet are used as a
rudder.
Diving is where the grebe excels.
For this reason he has been called
the spirit diver, witch diver and even
hell diver. Alarmed, the grebe sinks
like lead in the water and can swim
for long distance. His nostrils are
slightly above the surface of the water
and it is almost impossible to locate
him.
On land he is in danger He stands
erect and must use his very infinite
tail to balance him. To stroll is most
difficult and never used as a means
to get places. The bill Is horny and
pointed. There is no pouch. The
feathers are carefully dressed. The
erebe is never wet.
Grebes belong to the order of diving
birds and are the most aquatic. Most
Of their food is fish, but they do en-
Joy small animals to be found in the
water.

BURIAL AS HERO
Lieut.. Christopher, Who
Saved Life on Ocean, to
Rest in Arlington.

A hero's buriel in Arlington National
Cemetery Wednesday was planned to-
dsy for Lieut.. Luke Christopher, IA
NOUS flyer, who lost his life while
saving that of another, when his
Coast Guard amphibian plane crashed
into stormy Atlantic Ocean waters
Saturday off Assateague, Va.
Meanwhile, a Coast Guard board OF
inquiry today began an investigation
into the cause of the crash. Lieut..
Christopher, the pilot, who was well
known here, was man OF long ex-
perience in the air, not only for the
Coast Guard, but with other branches
of the Government.
The flyer, formerly test pilot for
the Government, died at the Coast
Guard Station at Assateague, IS miles
south of Salisbury. Md. But the man
whose life he saved-John Barrina,
a sailor-taken from the Standard
Oil Co. tanker Charles g. Black, at
sea, was recovering today from an
appendicitis operation in a Salisbury
hospital.

goes over into the water like an ex-
pert. The babies are happy to ride
upon the backs of their parents when
tired, and seem to have lots Of fun
getting aboard.
The most unusual thing about
grebes is their fondness for feathers
mixed with their diet. Their gizzard
grinds them up very fine and what
ever nourishment there Is in them
the grebes obtain.
The flesh of grebes is not eatsble.
The birds live on crawfish and aquatic
insects and small fishes. They are
interesting and lend charm to the
island waters, which they prefer. For
a while their beautiful feathers were
highly priced by milliners. Today, the
grebes are learning in some secret way,
they have protection.

MILK CONTROL
LACKING HERE,
FEENEY SAYS
Former Administrator Asks
Women to Take Active
Part.

The Indianapolis milk situation
is in a chaotic condition because
women have not taken more ac-
tive part in investigating milk con-
ditions, Al Feeney, former Indian
apolis milkshed administrator
charged today.
Speaking before the Indianapolis
Council of Women in Ayres' audi
forum yesterday, Mr.. Feeney said
II don't know anything vicious
about the state milk control act
but what is vicious is the misad
ministration by the state control
board.
Lack of courage of this board
has led to the situation today. The
rise in prices to the producer was
warranted. The farmers have been
betrayed all along the line"
He advocated enactment of legis-
lation that would make labelling Of
milk as to standard and pasteuriza-
ton mandatory and recommended
that the local milk committee be
merely an advisory board.
THE Indianapolis milk supply is
as good as that of any other city
in the United States, but what is
needed here is more adequate in
spection, Mr.. Feeney said.
