The Government of our country deerns it necessary to have its Reserve Units brougtu ta strength; it is aur job t e that this is done."

DEFEATING DISEASE In twenty years Canada has eut her death rate from Diphtheria from 900 per year ta oniy 270 per year,' and, the heaith statisticians repart, the rate is still falling.

BIRDLAND -- PILEATED WOODPECKER If you are interested in thing.î in the woods. you cannat miss th( Pileated Woodpeckcr-providini sit is present. Either sight az sounci may draw your gttention. A great splash ai colour and an unusually loud noise, whether produced by the voice or the bibl repping against a trep trunk, make its indentification easy. This, aur biggcst Woodpecker, 17 inches in lcngth, is positively spectacular. The greater part of the plumage is black, while the throat, a streak down the long neck, and a large patch on the outstretched wings are white. But il is the fiaming red crest, fore- bead and moustache ai the maie that give a thrill ta even the most experienccd bird lover. The te- maie has a black furehead and lacks the moustache, but is other- wisc the same as ber mate, with a long, powertul, horn-coloured bill which can be used either as a drum-stick or a chisel. Uniess for pure e n oym e nt, there seems ta be no good reason Why the Pileated Wood p e c k e r beats a tatoo on dry, resonant limbs; but the large, square- shaped cavities which il naisily gouges out ai solid-looking wood is for the purpase ai getting at borers. on account ai its size, it is capable ai uncovering larvae and grubs that smaller members ai the family can neyer reach. This apparent destruction ai good trees is offset by the benefit derived tram remaving the in- sects. Ai-d 50 the handsome bird should be pratected for its econo- mic as well as its aesthetic value. Like the Flicker, it also feeds on ants; and ils notes, thougb lau- decr, resemble those of the same bird. The s]owly wbistled "cow, c0w, cow" i nte rs p e rs e d with .wick-up" many repeated, are quite trightening ta a brie wan- derer in our northern balsam - sPrucc torests. Here its 3-5 white eggs are laid in a big hclc made in a tree trunk. At one time the colloquial name was. vcry appropriately, "Cack- of-the-woodls". This was later carrupted into "Woadcock". But as this word is also used ta desig- nate a totaily different species, it should be discarded. Civilization has gradually pusbed the Pileated iVoadpecker back mbt the wilder- ness. This is the fault ai men vho, nominally bunting deer, con- idered it smart to return home vith a gargeous feathered tropby.

Rural Mail Carriers Urge Abolition of The "Tender" System The Rural Mail Cauriers' As- sociation ai Canada, reprcsenting Canada's 5000 cauriers met in convention at Guelph, ta discuss the many and vaicd problems relating ta rural mail delivery, and haxing especially in mind the deletian ai the word "TENDER" with ail that it implies, fram the prescrit "tender contract" system. At the pres-ent time practically everv route is operating for an individual price an an individual contract. This is quite -,; il should be. but il is not rigbt or just that three or four rouies o,,- erating tramn the same office, prac- tical the same miles ta travel, and the same numbe: of boxes ta serve, should be working under contracts withi hundrcds af dollars fifference in the contract price.
