Lucky is the tourist on a South
American safari who finds it easy
to pronounce the unfamiliar names
of places along his route. So diff
cult for the stranger are some Of
these Indian and Spanish words
that travel companies distribute a
key to the pronunciation of towns,
lakes and falls which tourists usually
visit in a journey round the southern
continent. Magallanes, for instance,
a town near the Magellan straits,
is pronounced Mah-gal-yea-nayes,
and Llanquihue, lake in Chile's
vacationland, sounds like Yankee
Way. africa (Ah-ree-kO, Asuncion

The Three Graces included Aglaia
pronounced a-glay-ya), Euphrosyne
(u-fros in-e) and Thalia (pro-
nounced thal-i-a), accent on second
syllable in each case. In Greek
mythology they were sister god
desses, intimate with the Muses. and
often the attendants of Venus or
Apollo. They are represented as
beautiful maidens, embodying and
comforting grace, beauty and joy.
One version of their origin, notes
correspondent in the Detroit News,
makes them the daughters of Zeus
and Eurynome. Aglaia, meaning
splendor or brilliance, represented
mirth; Euphrosyne, meaning joy,
represented cheerfulness Of mind;
Thalia, meaning bud or bloom, rep
resented good-tempered jest. In art
they are usually shown embracing
each other, to indicate that where
one is, the others are welcome.
The worship of these goddesses
in Greece was very ancient, and
there were local variations in the
cult. At Orchomenus in Boeatia
there was venerable shrine where
they were worshiped under the
form of three stones said to have
fallen from heaven. The early con-
nection of the Graces with the
bloom of nature was soon obscured
by the conception Of them as god
desses of the joy of life and beauty,
present at the dances and feasts of
the gods. To the Romans they were
considered less deities than artis-
tic distractions borrowed from the
Greeks.

FARMERS HOLD FALLACIES
ABOUT FEATHERED
FRIENDS

Some Of the birds that save mill
lions in crops each year are still mis-
judged by the farmers.
The Baltimore oriole has been ac-
cused of damaging grapes and gar
den peas. But Department of Agri-
culture studies show that the orioles
food habits are largely beneficial.
Caterpillars are its favorite fare,
but it also eats quantities of plant
and bark lice, ants, wasps, grass
hoppers, spiders, and weevils.
Farmers who tear swallows nests
from barn caves are turning out
their best friends. Swallows, catch
ing their food on the wing, consume
vast numbers of harmful flying in
sects especially during the nesting
and melting periods when they, like
most other birds, eat little besides
animal foods. Young birds in the
nest often eat more insects than.
their parents. To encourage swallows,
provide mud for nest mortar,
shelf to support nests, and cut small
entrance holes in barn gables. Barn
and tree swallows will appreciate
boxes placed high in the barn, while
purple martins will make good use
of houses on top of pole in an
open space.
Woodpeckers are often suspected Of
damaging trees by their drillings.
Each hole drilled means that the
bird has located the larva of a de-
structive wondering insect. Wood
peckers are among the most valuable
forest conservationists. With their
heavy bills they get insects that
other birds cannot get.
Fruit raisers often look on robins
as enemies because the robins APP
petite for cherries. Yet robins con-
sumo insects harmful to fruit crops
throughout the year, and only dur
ing the flocking periods in June and
July do they eat cultivated fruit to
any extent. AS soon as the wild ber-
ries are ripe they will form the
greater part of the food. One good
way to keep robins out Of the
orchard is to plant mulberry trees
nearby. Mulberries ripen at the same
time as cherries and the birds prefer
them to other fruits.

Famous St. Bernard Dogs
Have Saved Many Lives

The original st. Bernard, raised
many centuries ago, was a cross be-
tween a Swiss mountain mastiff and
Danish female bulldog. This stock
turned out progeny of magnificent
creatures strong enough to carry a
man a considerable distance.
The breeding of these dogs was
begun by the monks at the hospice
founded by st. Bernard of Mention
in the early Ninth century, notes a
writer in the Chicago American.
The monastery is 5000 feet above
sea level, near the path, or pass,
across the Pennine Alps. This pass
is covered with perpetual snow from
seven TO eight feet deep, and drifts
sometimes accumulate to the height
of forty feet. This pass is used by
French and German pilgrims on
their way to Rome. For the con-
venience and protection of the trav@
elers St. Bernard founded the hos
pice.
1t is estimated by students Of his
tory that the st. Bernard dogs,
named after st. Bernard, have
saved more than $500 lives in the
more than $50 years they have been
used by the monks.
At the first sign of the storm, the
animals become restless. When it
breaks, they are turned loose, and
scatter in all directions, noses high
in the air, seeking the scent Of some
stray traveller. They carry a cask
of brandy suspended under their.
necks.
Often when they arrive, the lost
man is covered with snow, uncon-
scious. The dogs are trained to
scratch away the snow that may
have drifted upon the unfortunate
traveller. They warm him with their
bodies, and lick his face.
