PerSeus attacking the monster

which are in northern Africa, near
the western end of the Mediterranean
Sea
The best-knoWn tale about Per-
seuS deals with his rescue of the fair
maiden Andromeda. Here. in short,
is what the Greeks told their chill
dren:
"Andromeda was princess and
had a happy girlhood until after
| her mother boasted too much about
/ her beauty. The mother said that
her daughter was more beautiful
than any nymph Of the sea.
"As punishment Andromeda was
chained to rock beside the sea
shore. where she was to become the
victim of dragon.
Then along came Perseus. fresh
from his victory over Medusa. See
ing the maiden in distress. he de-
cloed to save her. Just at this time
the monster was rising from the
sea, but PerSeus killed it.
When the hero took Andromeda
back to her home, the king and
| queen asked him what reward he
wished to have. He replied that he
would like to marry their daughter.
So it came about that Perseus and
Andromeda were married.
People no longer believe in the
old Greek myths, but the names of
their gods, goddesses and heroes are
still used for planets and stars. One
/ group Of stars is known as the Con-
stellation Of Perseus," and another
star group carries the name of An

yesterday we were speaking Of
the myth which ancient Greeks
made up about Perseus and the
Gorgons.
After seeing the Gorgons as they
were reflected in his shield, Perseus
singled out Medusa and cut off her
head with his sword Then he car
ried the head away, but did not
dare to look at the face lest he
should be turned to stone.
The Greeks had the queer ideas
that the sky was held up by giant
named Atlas. This giant grew tired
of his task, and when he saw Per-
seus flying overhead, he asked him
to come down, saying:
"Fate has told me that you would
slay Medusa, queen of the Gorgons.
1 am tired of holding up the sky,
and want to be turned to stone.
Will you let me look at Medusas 5
face?"
The hero was glad to do as he was
asked. Down he came and held the
Gorgon's head before Atlas, who at
once was changed to stone.
With that myth, the Greeks tried
to explain the Atlas mountains

die line of the face which radiates
in all directions from two points.
one of which is on the crown and
the other just below the eyes. They
also have naked area on the muz-
zle which takes in the nostrils. The
lawns have spotted coats.
All brockets possess tail of me-
dium length. The upper Jaw may
or may not have heavy tusks. The
red brocket stands about 27 inches
| high and is of uniform reddish
| brown color The closely related
Brazilian brocket is smaller by 6
inches and more elegantly clad in
| lighter shade of brown. 1t has
more trim figure. There are two
other species. The Ecuador brocket
also roams through Colombia, Vene-
zuela and Guatemala The wood
brocket is but 19 inches at the
shoulder. The camping grounds are
from Surinam to Trinidad. A lovely
| coat of glossy red fur, with face
and feet of blush brown, identifies
the Ecuador brocket, and a plain
brown and white fur coat the wood
brocket. All these small deer have
similar habits.
One never sees brockets alone or
in herds. 1t is said they mate for
life and seem to be unable to get
| along without each other. They are
never hostile unless the younger
males are fighting for the same
! female. After this serious matter is
settled. friendly feelings are evident
among them.
In December or January. one
handsome baby is born. 1t has a
sleek spotted coat. Within two or
three days, the small youngster
determinedly follows its mother.
The stemlike legs are pretty wobblv.
but the mother slows her pace for
the toddler. Soon. it can speed along
with the best of the clan.
Brockets are difficult to approach.
They leave their form" or bed. at
dusk to browse, not neglecting to
visit cultivated gardens and help
themselves.
