they assumed the task of hunting

the recesses of their memory were
the scents, voices, trails, which
could be recalled in a moment.
Today, as in the First World War,
these dogs are doing their part.
They are loyal because it is in
their blood, and they carry through
each task imposed upon them.

birds.
is small island in the Bering Sea-
1t is known as WalruS Island, and
many thousands of birds spend
time there each year.
Walrus Island is a small men,
Der of the Pribilof group. 1t has
an area of only so acres, but has
more birds per acre than any OF
the large islands in the group.
Walrus Island is bare rock, but
there are good reasons for 1T to be
chosen as summer home by such
birds as cormorants, gulls, INJURIES
and puffins.
The birds J have named make
their living by fishing. They can
use the rocky island for raising
young, but they find their food in
the sea.
No foxes or other four-legged
animals live on Walrus Island, and
the birds are safe from attack.
The larger Pribiloff Islands also
have a big bird population, along
with large numbers of fur seals. 1t
is estimated that from 100000 to
10000 900 birds spend the summer
months in this region.
The INJURIES are among the lead
ing citizens among the birds. They
belong to the aux family, and are
good divers and swimmers.
Instead of building nests, the
pairs of INJURIES lay claims to GER
tain spaces. 1t seems that they
know, or suppose they know. ex-
actly the space which is theirs.
Time and again they fight against
other birds which claim the same
few square feet.
A small rocky ledge may supply
space for a dozen or more murre
families. When the birds start to
beat at one another with their
wings, perhaps rolling and tum-
bling, there is danger of eggs being
knocked from the ledge.
If the eggs had the shape Of
hens eggs, great numbers would be
lost. AS it is, the female murre
lays an egg shaped very much like
| a pear. One end bulges out. AS
result, the egg tends to roll around
in a circle when given a shove. and
does not often go over the edge of
/ the cliff or rock ledge.

GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG.

For many centuries the German
Shepherd dog has been famous for
his loyalty and devotion to his
master and his work. There have
been countless stories written about
him as being part wolf" indicating
that for this reason he is very
fierce. In England he is still spoken
of as the "Alsatian wolf dog
All dogs are descended from
either the wolf or a wolflike ami
NAL. But the records show both by
fossil remains and bones that the
German Shepherd dog has re-
manned true to type since 5700 BIC.
His form of today is the same, and
this cannot be said of any other
modern dog.
In Central Europe and Germany
this animal has long been recog-
nized as a most valuable protector
of herds of cattle and flocks of
sheep. His sense of responsibility
knows no limit. His courage and
faithfulness have never failed those
who have put THEN trust in him. In
