Final Efforts
EDITORIAL

When one is in race, it IS often
the last squirt that decides the win
ner. Even if you haven't been in
the lead during most of the race
and at the last your pep fails-your
muscles and will power give out
and you would probably have saved
time and energy never to have run.
So it is with our school year; now
we are entering the home stretch
with only six more weeks to come
through with flying colors, or 9TH
erwise, as fate may have it. We
have stayed in the race this long,
we have either surged ahead, run
just with average speed, or possibly
Jagged behind. but that is beside
the point Let's all diligently apply
ourselves and work to the best of
our ability no matter how hard it
is. Certainly there are Obstacles
spring fever, added work, and out
side attractions-but it's the per-
son that can overcome the worst diff
ficulties that will come out ahead.

I rating. The fine Whitefish band.
composed entirely of high school
students, was awarded top honors.
Says Mr. Sargent, "One point on
which the Whitefish band was def
initely superior to ours was in the
variety of instruments in their
band The more expensive instru-
ments such rs the bassoon, oboe. al
to clarinet. French horns, and BARI
tones are owned by the Whitefish
school district, since few parents
can afford to purchase them.
Last year we spent most of our
band budget for uniforms and pa
rade equipment Our superiority as
parade unit is due partly to that
fact Our next goal should be the
purchase of the more expensive in
struments. II will be necessary to
do SO before we can establish our
selves as a Division | band
The-Libbv marching unit includ-
ing the band, drill squad, and
twfrlefs were the hit of the parade
which marched through the streets
of Kalispell in the afternoon. All
were agreed that never has finer
appearing or better trained group
of students paraded in Kalispell.
Altogether / feel that we had a
very profitable and enjoyable trip
says Mr.. Sargent, and the. lib stu
dents who took part in the festival
are unanimous in expressing the
same opinion.

tival are rated in Divisions |, II,

Considering the fact that many
of the Libby band members are in
the sixth, seventh, and eighth
grades. Mr.. Sargent says he is we'll
satisfied with Division II rating.

Uncle Roy's Corner
By RAMON COFFNIAN.

Recently I saw photograph
which was taken on q small island.
The scene reminded me OF the
Arctic zone. and there we're hills
which looked as though they were
made OF snow and ice.
The picture, however. was not
taken in the Arctic. Far from It!
The island of which I speak is
in the torrid zone, and the line
of the equator is just north OF It,.
It Is called "Madura,' and is close
to the large island OF Java.
There are snow-capped mountains
in the torrid zone, but they are
peaks of great height. The white
hills of Madura are only 80 or 40
feet high. They are composed Of
sale, and that is what makes them
look like snow!
The millions of people, on Java
have been getting their salt from
Madura for many years.
Our earth has more than enough
salt. Billions Of tons can be placed
on the market.
We have so much salt that we use
only small part of what could be
obtained if We so desired People
on this continent use about 9,000,-
900 tons a year. for seasoning food
and other purposes. If We needed
10000 900 tons year, We could get
1t easily.

Americans do not consume so
much fish per person as the in
habitants of other countries. This,
we believe, is because neither the
food value of fish, nor the many
excellent ways of preparing it has
been publicized sufficiently.
Fish, in way. return to us the
foods lost by soil erosion. Foods
from the sea do not suffer from the
nutritional deficiencies of those from
the land, for the very good reason
that the sea receives the waste sub
stances swept into it through erosion
Therefore, it becomes q vast mixing
bowl and the marine life partakes
of these. In turn, we may consume
the tender and deliciously favored
fish and have the nutritious food
after all.
Fishery products are the best and
cheapest sources of proteins avail
able today. Fish fat has q high
energy value and is easily digested
Fish also are excellent sources Of
minerals. calcium and phosphorous
the latter two important for the
growth and maintenance Of teeth

is, as you know. important for the
treatment Of the most prevalent

The herring is deep steel-blue or
greenish blue on the back, with
silvery sides and golden gill covers.
When just out Of water it is rides
cent all over. with the different hues
Of blue, violet and green, but the
beauty fades quickly. Herring grow
to a length Of II inches.
In the spring and autumn. herring
come inshore to spawn. The eggs
are never confused with any other
marine fishes. They are heavy and
sink to the bottom, where they stick
IN clumps to seaweeds or stones, and
have been found in great masses on
anchors or other objects on the seas
floor. The young hatch in 10 to
Is days. At first, they feed on the
microscopic plants and the offspring
of snails and crustacea, soon gradu-
ating to larger prey.
Herring, when feeding, swim open
mouthed, often with their snouts
at the surface. and they are system
attic in their way of finding food by
crossing and recrossing their tracks,
draining the water through their
sievelike gills. You should see the
surface-dwelling shrimp leap clear
of the water to try to evade the
herring. When herring are l and
2 years old, they are known as
"sardines." They come ashore in
summer and autumn along the New
England coasts. At the age of 2
they begin to take on fat. These
fish, still immature. spend their
summer In the deep water offshore.
The mature herring live some dis
tance from the shore during most
Of the year.
