ANCIENT FOSSIL Skeletons, Millions of Years , Old Discovered in io Wyoming Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 17.-- Discovery near Torrington, Wyo., of one of the , most important oligocene fossil deposits. known to date in this country--one believed to have been guarded by nature for millions of years--Wwas Aan- nounced by Harvard University here last night. The deposit was discovered and developed by an expedition from the Harvard Museum of Compara- tive Zoology under the leadership of Erich M. Bchjaikjer.

Mr. Victor Burr, bro- ther of the groom, acted as best man, During the signing of the register, Mrs. Stuart Alger, of Oshawa, sang "My World."

In the spring comes the little green shoots, and then in early summer the flowers appear and all summer long that flower is changing to fruit and now in the autumn the fruit is ripe and the seed is ready to start all over again if.given a chance, The Nature Study for Second class can begin right now, although it seems at the wrong end doesn't it? But you can gather the fruits of the trees or flowers which you intend to take as your special study and know them. The autumn col- orings should also be noticed, and if you are studying trees, the winter buds will soon be on the branches to be known. A good Guide should be able to tell a tree in winter when the leaves and fruit are all gone, Just by its buds and bark. A good game, or good collection for now and one that will make a good patrol game for next week, is to see which patrol can collect the finest collection of wild fruits--not pears and apples and grapes, but maples and mountain ash and hazel nuts and so on. Each member of the patrol should help; it is no good to the rest if the leader or second does it all. Then, in patrol corners check them over to see that every member in the patrol can recognize what each is, before you gather in the big pow-wow circle for Captain to see the results, An interesting story is contained in today's despatches about two Girl Guides, Miss Belcher and Miss Budgell of England, who travelled across Europe and part of Asia and Africa by motor car alone, except for Arab guides in the desert. The girls slept at night in a tent at- tached to the car. Once lions came sniffing around their tent and once their car fell through a pontoon bridge into a river. Between Abadia and Abuhamid the girls were lost in the desert be- cause their Arab guide, accustomed to camels, was bewildered by the car. They ran short of water, but were put right by wandering Arabs. When lost a second time they en- countered many difficulties in hills and watercourses, but eventually reached a railway station, They left Egypt by liner from Brindisi and will drive through Italy and France before returning home.

Two new girls were welcomed into the Company. They were Winnie Griffin and Rose Farrell. Mrs. Wilson instructed the ys in the Domestic Service and undress Badge work, Annie Bellingham, Marry Belling- ham and Violet Hooper were suc cessful in getting their Cook's Badge. 2nd Oshawa All the Guides from 2nd Oshawa, who tried the cooks badge last week passed, so Margaret Daniels, Annie Anderson, Illa Valleau, Betty Hobbs Eileen. Copeland, Mary Andrews and Dora Sweet are now on the way to First Class. 8rd Oshawa The third company will meet next Thursday night in the Y.M.C.A. Any girl over 11 years will be welcomed. Thursday Was a real Red letter day in the history of the company, for the first hike was held, Thanks to the courtesy of Mr. Charles Rob- son, a lovely spot with clear white sand, on a creek bed, was the spot used, All around the open spot was georgeous fall foliage. Lots of soft woods, the pines and cedar and hemlock, were in abundance for making fires, while the willows by the water's edge provided good wands for toasting the bacon and marshmallows. Miss Vera Moyse was unable to come as she had a church tea party to superintend, but she sent a big basket of snow apples and her good wishes. Miss Lois Mundy brought the girls out from High School, as the public school girls were fortun~ ate in having a holiday owing to the teachers convention. Mrs, Rat. cliffe took the first part, and they were all Columbuses, and explor- ed thé territory into which they went for the first time. A tiny shack, covered in tin nestling on the side of the hill, showed that other explorers had been there. Small paths, some of them leading no- where, and others leading inf thickets of burrs, were tried out. Then at the end, the soft clean sand, the talk about how to build fires and then all the exeprimenting in fire making. Only one fire went with the one match, and. several never got going at all, But two kept up a blaze and soon there were beds of coals and lunch wae being had, the tea was made and then the big treat of "Sumores" Did you ever eat them? Yum! Yum! The sofly melting chocolate and the squashy marshmallows WILL run between your fingers but they are good. The Guides of 3rd Oshawa have decided that they will have company colors and such a time as they had in choosing what they wanted. All the shades of the rainbow were dis- cussed in turn. In the end, the de- ciding factor was a brilliant flame colored maple, standing alone amid the dark green of a hillside covered with evergreens. So "flame" will be the color of the new ties of the 3rd Oshawa, to remind the charac- ter members of the first hike and to bring to mind the fact that the company was started when the au- tumn colors were painting the trees, "1 believe," sald the cheery philosopher, "that for every single thing you give away two come back to you." "That's my experience,'" agreed Wifflebaum, "Last March I gave away my daughter and her hus- band came back in July."--Path- finder, / = ot.

Jimmy had stuffed himself with grasshoppers. There is nothing he enjoys more than catching and eating grasshop- pers.

The coming of Jack Frost had put an end to them, Jimmy had to look elsewhere for food. He didn't want to lose any of. the fat he had. In fact, he was quite willing to add a little fat, if possible. You see, Jim- my learned a long time ago that a fat body means a comfortable winter, and Jimmy means to be comfortable at all times, if he can be. These frosty moonlight October nights were wonderful for prowling about, Jimmy did a lot of prowling about. Down on the Meadows and up in the Old Orchard he dug out grubs and caught mice, Now and then he got a fat beetle, and Jimmy is very fond of fat beetles. He was having no trouble at all in getting plenty to eat. Every night when he started out it was with no particular plan. He just wandered about en- joying life. So it was that one night he came to Farmer Brown's farm- yard, Jimmy sat down and looked across the yard. "It's a long time since I've been up here," said he. "I wonder where Bowser the Hound and that impudent young dog, Flip the Ter- rier, are. don't. want to have any trouble with either of them. I guess there isn't much' danger. of trouble with Bowser. He knows me of old. He knows that if he doesn't bother me I won't bother him. at youn, dog is different. He gets excited an loses his head. I taught him a les- son once. If he hasn't forgotten that lesson, there'll be no trouble with Anyway, I think I'll look a- round a bit and see what I can find." So Jimmy Skunk shuffled across the . farmyard over to armer Brown's house and there he began to poke his inquisitive nose into ev- ery nook and corner. He found a cellar window open. It was open only a crack, but when he pushed against it, it opened farther, Jim- my's nose told him that there was good things in that cellar, He want- ed to go right in there. and investi~ gate. But he didn't do it. No, sir, Jimmy didn't do it. He remembered something, He remembered that when he was a young fellow, not al- together wise in the ways of the Great. World, he had entered that very window and tumbled down into that cellar and then couldn't get out. So Jimmy backed away. "I don't Make the same mistake twice," said e. He continued on along towards the back of the house and presently he came to a little doorway, It was a round doorway; it was a new door- way. Jimmy was certain that it had not been there the last time he had visited Farmer Brown's house. He was right about this. It hadn't been there. As & matter of fact it had been made only the day before, It was a doorway for Black Pussy the Cat, that she might go in and out of the shed when she pleased, . Jimmy stopped and examined that doorway, He poked his nose inside and sniffed. Then Jimmy Skunk grinned. Yes, sir, after that first good sniff Jimmy Skunk grinded, (Copyright, 1930, by T. W.
