DR.. Howard II. Scott Tells
OF Jap Activities

While the president was speak
ing over the radio at Washington,
Feb. %, Jap submarine was
shelling the coast of California
eight miles above Santa Barbara,
At Goleta. The 25 shots did little
damage, beyond hitting an oil der
rick. and plowing the fields. The
submarine was very large one,
rose to the surface, opened fire, and
steamed away on the surface of the
water westward. as witnesses de-
clare. Nearby radios We're off, but
We did not guess the reason.
The night after this was quiet,
but the next night about three in
the morning l heard the alarm
siren, very shrill and prolonged,
lasting about five minutes. A lit
tie later l heard another very low,
h0arse and prolonged. / OWNED
the reason as an air raid siren, but
fell asleep again, not thinking it
serious. Soon there was a rousing
knock at the door. 1t was repeated
several times. A voice said "Hur-
ry." t"Do not turn on the light,
there is a blackout. There is an
air attack! Come and look at the
sky"
The streamers from a score of
searchlights, stabbed the darkness
of the night Every street was
black, and that was all the light
there was. All searchlights con-
-centrated at one point 1t was the
supposed point of the attack, where
the enemy planes had appeared.
There was the constant flash of
bursting shells, accompanied by the
repeated roar of the guns, the
shore defense artillery booming in
chorus. Red yellow flares were

all concerned. The patriotic thing
is to suspend judgment, until the
full solution of the mystery Is
reached and made known, and the
'all clear signal is given again.
Todcy, March 2, Major General
Mark Clark, of the army's general
staff, reports concisely and accu-
rately that three to five enemy
planes were seen by members of
the coast artillery brigade, the men
who fought with SO much danger TO

FACTS AND FOLKS OF WINDSOR
TOWNSHIP

While we could never remember
who begat who as recorded in Holy
Writ, we have for many years en-
joyed gathering and writing the
story of folks who have been on
life's stage not so long ago, as those
the Bible tells about. Some
times we think it might have been
good idea had the chronology
been kept up. Then the thought
comes to us. what would we have
to write about. While we are
writing this before we get on the
scene, or in the midst of the folks
we are to write about, we have in
mind the line of the story we are
to tell. Let us say at this time
that we will tell the story as we
gather it, and leave it to you to de-
eide who the important ones were.
Let us say here that if we tell of
your mother, and you don't think in
your heart that so far as you are
concerned that she is, or was the
most important, tell us, as we want
to mention the fact that she should
have been ashamed that she bore
you. In starting our story we will
not look in the halls of fame, but
will spend some time in the ceme-
terry. If you happen to notice us
going from lot to lot and stone to
stone, don't get excited thinking
someone is dead and We are hunt
ing place to bury them.
Let us tell you that the humble
sand stone-a product of our ma
tive hills may tell more interest
ing story than the costly marble.
or granite shaft. While we know
and have known the people of
Stockport and Windsor township,
the past half century, we are ask
ing that you folks who are the cit
izenry of the present, assist in this
work by giving us dates and events
of interest connected with the life
of the community. We will first
interview the old folks, because we
enjoy old folks and because their
memory goes back to the events
and people we want to write about
first.
Now We are ready to start on the
journey if you please through the
years. Perhaps many of our read
ers know the history of the forma-
tion of the township, but we feel
that many of our younger readers
will enjoy the early history. Per-
haps there may be some among
the citizenry who never heard of
the story We feel we should tell
you that the story will appear in
book form, after it has run serially
in the Morgan, County Democrat,
which will make 1t more convenient
to keep. In writing to, tell your
friends who are away, who started
their life's journey here so that
they with you may tell Mr.. Durbin
how many books you want. 1t was
here that at the time Of the organ
ization of the county the most
progress in population and i'm
provement had been made. In the
early days much of the travel was
on and along the streams. 1t will
be remembered that settlement

OHIO ANIMALS

How many KINDS or wild animals
are there in Ohio?
Well, probably a lot more than
you would think. A recent survey
Of Ohio mammals made by David
r. Katz of the Ohio Wildlife Re-
search Station at Ohio State Uni
versity gives a total of &C varieties,
six Of which have been introduced
by the white man.
The total of sc does not include
10 species which have been extri-
Gated since the coming of the white
race. These are the wolverine,
fisher, pine marten, timber wolf,
Canadian lynx, panther, red-backed
vole, snowshoe rabbit, American
elk, and the bison. Some of the
most feared and some of the most
sought after of North American an
imals are in this list and it is sur
prising to think that they once
roamed Ohio.
Only two of the larger animals
still persist-the Virginia deer and
the black bear. The former is most
common in the hilly sections east
and south and the latter is found
in few cases in southern Ohio.
Other species which we do not
think of as being natives are the
porcupine, beaver, wildcat, badger,
otter and coyote, but some of these
animals are found from time to
time in the state.
The list of introduced species
brings out the fact that, as in the
case with birds, some of our worst
pests were brought in by man. One
marked difference, however, is that
the birds were introduced deliber-
ately, the mammals, accidentally
The house mouse, Norway and
black rats, the escaped house cat.

up the list Of foreigners.
