Day Is Lost or Gained at
International Date Line

The International Date Line is
q convenient name for the 180th
meridian where, by international
agreement, Monday (say) changes
to Tuesday if one is going west
and changes backwards to Sum
day, if one is going east.
Obviously these changes cancel
themselves out, in the long run,
though to live on the 180th merid-
ian can lead to all sorts of anus
ing complications.
Why is all this unavoidable?
Well, we count our days by sum
rises in practice. If one travels
swiftly west ones day lengthens,
because the sun seems slower in
setting in the west. The opposite
happens when we speed to the
east. There must be some spot
(any spot would do, but all nations
have to agree where it shall be)
where travellers must adopt anoth-
er day or shed one.
They can get back what they
have lost, or lose what they have
gained, simply by turning and 60
ing back home.

18th Century Monastery
Crossed Ocean in Gases

The 18th century Spanish monas-
terry which Mr.. William Randolph
Hearst purchased and had shipped
to America in specially chartered
steamer in 1923 has been sold to
an anonymous buyer for $4,000.
Twice this sum was spent on re-
packing the monastery, after it ar
rived in the United States in O,5O0
cases. This had to be done be-
cause the stones had been wrapped
in straw, and it was discovered too
late that it was illegal-for SAM
tary reasons-to import straw. Mr..
Hearst is believed to have spent
$500,000 on the monastery. 1t has
been estimated that it will cost an
other $125,000 to transport it from
its present resting place in New
York warehouse to wherever it is
to be regretted.

Pad the back as shown here, using
at least three layers of cotton
batting for the front of it and one
for the back. Next, cut an 18-inch
circle of cardboard and use it for
a pattern for marking the shape
of the round seat on boards or
plywood. Cut out the wooden seat
and screw it to the chair. Save
the cardboard pattern.
Cover the front of the chair back
next, tufting it with covered but

BANDED ANTEATER
Myrmecobius fdscidtusJ

Another interesting marsupial Of
Australia is the banded anteater
1t hunts for ants over the southern
part of Western Australia, from the
Darling Range in the west to Kali
goorlie in the east, northward to
Laverton and sol1.h to the country
near Albany.
This family has but one genus.
The members are characterized by
the degenerate appearance and un-
usual number OF teeth, the molars
exceeding four on each side of both
jaws.
The banded anteater is about the
size of large squirrel. 1t pos.
.sesses a long, cylindrical tongue
especially adapted to It's diet of
ants. It belongs in the native cat
group. 1t has a long muzzle and
pointed ears. From earliest youth,
these markings are so distinctive
that 1t cannot be mistaken for any
other marsupial.
Sometimes, the banded anteater
is incorrectly likened to a squirrel.
As matter Of fact. its figure differs
from that of any other small NAM
NAL in that 1t Is extremely broad
and fiat on the rump, which, by all
rules, should be arched. Instead, the
banded anteater is actually fiat
tened much in the manner Of lizards,
and observation of the head shows
that it also has a lizard-like fiat
tening. 1t has whiskerS that quiver

when the hunter is ready to pounce
on a well-established ant city. The
eyes are large and rather intelligent
In expression.
Not so much is known about the
habits of this shy marsupial. 1t
does not have any weapons of de-
fense; If captured, it does not at
tempt to bite. The only thing it
does is to utter q smothered sort of
grunt. It will seize the first op-
portunity to dart away to the near
est hollow log or similar shelter.
There is no pouch to protect the
young. There are from four to
seven babies, which hide in the
coarse hair of the mother. She
lives in a sheltered retreat while
her infants are small and helpless,
and does not take them about when
they grow older.
These anteaters are abroad day
and night, always looking for food.
They are not swift travellers, but
move in succession Of leaps. Once
in while, they raise their body in
order to get better view of the
landscape.
Because of their weird marking.
they are easy marks for predacious
mammals and birds. Cats and dogs
torment them and soon clear the
region of these harmless little ami
mails. Where there is timber and
place to hide, the banded anteater
is able to survive.

but he wrote one volume which was
to live through the centuries. It was
called Stories of Past Times" So
little did he think OF this volume
that he failed to say that he was
the a''thor. Printed under the title
was .he statement that the tales
we're told by MY Mother Goose"
Since that time 1t has been proved
that the stories were written by
Perrault, probably with the help OF
his son. They were based in large
part ON old folk tales which nurses
in France and other countries we're
fond of telling children.
In the book were some Of the most
famous of all fairy stories. Among
them were Cinderella, = "Puss in
Boots" Little Red Riding Hood"
and "The Sleeping Beauty"
just where the name of Mother
Goose" came from is not certain.
Very likely it was taken from the
name of kindly queen who was we'll
known in French folklore. She was
called queen Goosefoot" and was
said to be very friendly to boys and
girls.
Perrault died in 1703. His fairy
stories were translated in later times
into dozens of foreign languages.
The name Mother Goose" was
used for volume published in Eng
land 81 years after the death OF
Perrault. As time went on, Mother
Goose grew famous all over the Eng
disappearing world.
Strangely enough, the name of
Mother Goose was fastened to writ
ings of very different sort in Eng
land. 1t was used for book of
rhymes and jingles. Mother Goose
was looked upon by children AS
woman who had prepared these
rhymes and jingles for them.
Records do not show who first
wrote down the nursery rhymes
which have come to us as the work
OF Mother Goose. They seem to
have grown up in English homes
over period of hundreds of years
before they were gathered under the
name of Mother Goose"
In any case we now have Little
Boy Blue" Jack and Jill'' and
Tom, Tom, the Piper's Son." We
also have many other names which
center around nursery rhymes. such
as Old King Cole Z sJack Spratt,"
Simple Simon" and Mother Hub
bard"
