Authentic Folk Song Balladeer By E. M. CHANTLER Canadian Press Staff Writer Guess you can call this a success story--or how a modern American bard left his native land behind him, came to Canada, married, and sang his way to the hearts of radio listeners from Vancouver to Hali- fax. Some years ago--before he be- came the continent's No. 1 ballad- eer of the air--burly Burl Ives sat g an Ozarkian lullaby aboard his New York waterfront houseboat. His digits were stiff from knock- ing on America's entertainment doors, his soul sorrowing from the sights he had seen along the repub- lic's skid-row--whence he had gone in searciy of the songs of the road, of the people. Came a tap on hig cabin door. Without budging his considerable bulk, Burl told his caller to come in The gawky lad with a banjo over his shoulder shook off the dew of the Hudson River, pulled out the . " and mildly askéd if he could "set awhile." Burl never stopped strumming his guitar, never really stopped crooning the lullaby. Its almost Elizabethan lilt filled the small ca- bin. The lad finished rolling his fag, silently swung the banjo frcm his shoulder, found the right key and became second voice in a muy vin : mighty fine duet. Then they in- troduced themselves. A couple of good hours passed. They compared notes. Like Burl he had tramped the roads and grab- bed "rattlers" in most of the states of the union, Like the big, affable houseboat master he spurned the peeudo, scorned modern swing, hated flap and fuss while seeking out the imperishable, strangely sweet tunes, songs and hymns of this continent's many peorles. They plumbed each other's store of song and story, They talked of the fabulous Joe Hill of long ago. They both recalled meeting Woody Guthrie, the swaggering little guy with the dancing eyes and lute-like voice who spurned radio contracts and Radio City to unroll his bindle with the wanderers of America's "jungles." Burl and his shipboard visitor could understand Woody. He had found a truly appreciative au- dience. They envied him. Sure, and it was a great night. Over the Hudson, up into the dank, wharf-world around the houseboat came the rib-tickling, toe-tapping strains of "The Sow Took The Measles" and the sad, plaintive sobbing of "Barbara Allen." Then came Negro spirituals, "white folks" spirituals, work songs, nonsense ballads, story songs and ong that told of railroads, prisons, tramps, whisky, gambling and .wo- men who led men to disaster. They polished off the evening with Jim Tully's rollicking "Rock Candy Mogmtain Ballads." en Bd McCurdy said goodnight to his host. y g ign A few years later Pennsylvania- born Ed found himself in San Francisco where he met Beryl, a Vancouver girl.

With Canada's Naturalists By The Canadian Press Summer visitors to Canada's northern lakes are always impressed by the long, loud laugh of the loon. These handsome divers, larger than ducks, and whose plumage makes a striking pattern of black and white, laugh longest and loudest, it seems, in the'stillness of the night. Often their weird cries are answered, like deferred echoes, by other loons at a distance. In the rich mythology of the North American Indians there- is no more fascinating story than the one explaining the laughter of the loon. Ages ago, it relates, one of the gentlest and kindest among the great spirits of "the Red Man lived: in the forests and his name was Glooskap. All the birds, fishes and land animals were beloved of Gloos- kap, and under his rule lived hap- pily together without fear. But when Glooskap departed into the shadow world and discord appeared among men and animals, the laugh- ter of the loons lost its merry note and became agonized as they searched for the lost ruler of the wilderness. LEE J One way of counting your chick- ens before they are hatched is to x-ray the incubating eggs. This was done recently by an inquisitive x-ray technician who is a keen amateur naturalist. Counting, how- ever, was not the chief motive. He wanted to study the skeletal development of the embryo chick during the 21 days of incubation and arranged for the removal of an egg a day from a hatchery incu. bator. It was not until the 14th day that the fragile, tiny bomes were visible to the rays. And the final four days within the shell for the baby chick were days of tremendous hurry in the growth of the skeleton, the progress each 24 hours being striking, In almost all the dncubat- ing .eggs the x.ray films revealed lines resembling the staves in a miniature barrel. They were caused by the symmetrical shrinkage of the inner membrane of the egg as the moisture content was gradually ab- sorbed. LR RJ When two friends of an amateur naturalist came rushing to him with the news that they had seen a "duck" climbing a tree trunk, laughter was his sole response and he was caustically told to see. for '| himself. He did, and found exactly whaty he had expected. . It was a pileated woodpecker, a bird as big as a crow, by far the largest woodpecker in Canada, and with its coloring in broad masses of black and white together with its conspicuous red crest, brilliant and pointed. Its size and characteristic loud call surprise those who see it for the first time and it has often been mistaken for some kind of queer duck. Pileated woodpeckers were form- erly distributed widely across most of Canada, but wanton destruction occasioned by the desire to carry home so spectacular a trophy, has made it somewhat of a rarity, HITS { SHE NAD A WN THEWARNER yr --t THE MURDER THAT NEVER HAPPENED HAPPENS AGAIN!
