Its face was Mke & fla. 'isk with a short, strong bean ~ckiug out at the lower part. Around the eyes there were short derk hairs. The wings and body were of a creamy color, with dirty gray specks. It had long and sharp claws. As we were pitching hay on the sleigh the ow! shot down like light- ning to where some hay had been pulled away, seized a mouse with its claws and flew up to a heam. It then picked at it till it was dead. Then it chewed its head off, and not being hungry dropped the mouse in some hay in a corner of the barn We wanted to see how tame it was, 80 seeing that it' was within reach of the pitch-fork, we stuck the fork right amongst his feathers, but he would not move, so we left him alone, A little while later I wanted to make a careful examination of it, so I climbed up a ladder. When I turn- ed around it was over at the other side of the barn. None of us heard it fly across. . We had a leather mit, and threw it up at it to see if it would move, but it just glanced at the mit as it passed by.--Eric H. Warwick. Our Household Science Lesson, Household science is one of the girls' best classes in school. It is a way of learning how to be clean in everything we do. It teaches one how to cook and bake. necessities for home use. There are many good rules in household science, such /as table care, having the room well lighted, temperature should "be about sixty-eight degrees: laying of table, 'that is, serving, laying of dishes, ete. We first learned to cook cereals for breakfast use, next foods for din- ner. and now we are learning how. to bake cakes. Th® lesson which I liked the best this year was on muf- fins. We made three kinds of muf- fins, e.g., plain muffins, cornmeal muffins and" Graham muffins. In making these we first had to get our dishes ready for mixing, next we had to sift our dry ingredi- ents, then add the light ingredients, then the fat (butter), then bake in greased muffin pans until cooked. There are four girls in each group, and every week each girl has a dif- ferent duty to perform. These dut- ies consist of washing and wiping the dishes, scrubbing the tables, house- keeping, such as cleaning sinks, stoves and looking after the two towel racks to keep them in order.-- Evelyn Dumbleton. My Nature Study Walk. On Tuesday morning, when the boys of "Senior Fourth" class of Louise school wére over to Macdon- ald school for nual training one : oid that the manual was sick, so, we went back to our school. %r When wes got to our school the teacher let vs choose what kind of a lesson we woul® Jave, so we decided to. go out for a nature study walk. . The teacher divided us up in two groups. Gordon Bearance was ap- pointed captain of one group, and in the other group I was appointed captain, and Norman Jones was lieutenant. , ® We started .ut on Division street, and when we got near the Queen's College grounds we saw a chick-a- dee. It was a dark blue on its back and head, and underneath ft was gray. It was about the size of a spar- row, but it had a strait, erect tail. After we had examined the chick- a-dee, we went through the college grounds, and from there down George street to Macdonald Park. In the park we heard. a woodpecker, but could not find it. When we were on Barrie street we saw a crow fly- ing in a northerly direction. Then we went over to the City Park, but only saw some sparrows. 'We left for school at half-past ten and arrived there at recess, and toid detectives swore that Grass sold them a bottle of brandy in the Albion Hotel, on Feb, 21st, about 12.30 p.m, Grass swore itively that he 34 not sell any lig to the detec- tives. : » IOOL BRITISH MONDAY, MARCH 1, 1080 Dad speaks one word for me and two for himself when he tells Mother to order more the teacher the birds that we had seen ~--=Hughle 8mith, A Nature Study Walk. Tuesday morning we go to manual training, but as the teacher for it was sok we went back to-school. Our toscher let us have whatever Wwe wanted, s0 nearly all of us chose a nature study walk. WHIG We had two parties. For these we chose & lieutenant and a captain. The teacher let me have her watch, s0 we would be back in time. My side went out Johnson street. On one tree we saw where a woodpecker had been #t work. Pieces of the wood were at the bottom of the tree. 'We saw no birds except sparrows un- til we reachéd Macdonald street. The snow was pretty near up to our waists, but we struck a hard track and did not sink very far. When we were near the end of it we heard a peculiar noise. We looked around to see what it was, and discovered it was a nuthatch. The nuthatch is a smaller than a sparrow, and the back is black. Its breast is white. It is a species of woodpecker. It was picking away at the tree. thing he saw was a chickadee. The chickadee's crown, throat and back are black, the sides of the head and neck is white, back. is ashy gray, wings and tail feathers "white, and the stomach and sides a sort of buff. Next the saw an évening.grosbeak in a tree. The top of the héad is yel- low," tail black, wings black, back and sides of head olive, and breast yellow, Next we saw some funcos. They are at the upper parts a dark, grayish slate color; belly pure white. Phe two outer tail white. It was eating seeds. On our way back to school we saw a dead hermit thrush, and -also a crowd perched in one of the high trees. We started from school at nine o'clock and was back at ten-thirty o'clock. Gordon Bearance. Sydenham School. Our Sleigh Ride. On Feb, 14 the children of ths Home had a sleigh ride. We started out at four o'clock, and we went out to the penitentiary road. A horse and cutter came past, and our sleigh had to get to one side. Our sleigh went over on one side that had a lot of snow dfifts, and one of the girls fell off. After we got on the good road and the horses began to gallop, and one of the girls was left, till we #06ld the driver to stop. Quite away on another girl fell off the front sleigh. Our sleigh had to go slow. We thought we would get off and get some snowballs to throw at each other. Miss Chown was one of th: ladies who were with us, and she go. off and was throwing snowballs and wasn't watching the sleigh, and the horses started on a gallop again. We had a long run before we could catch up again. After our sleigh ride which ended at five o'clock, we had a Valentine party. Miss Chown and some of the other ladies helped t: serve af the party. We had games after. Some of the. bigger ones ar: going to write to Miss Chown thank ing her for her Kindness to th children, for we had a delightfu time --Charlie 'Cherry, -Sydenha: school.

During the Crimean war a gallant deed was performed by Captain Wil- | liam Peel, commander of a British warship, whose men had landed to fight on shore. Captain Peel and his men were sent to a certain place where guns kept firing at all times on the enemy. Suddenly the ammunt- tion ran out. A number' of men volunteered to go and bring am-. munition. To do so was to run into the greatest danger, as Russian shells' were bursting around all Great Britain's Drink Bill.

THe fuse was burning, and in a miniite the battery would be blown to pieces. But Capt. Peel without a' moment's hesitation rushed forth and grabbed the shell, ran with it to the side of the battery. The men shouted "Look out! the fuse is burning," but Capt. Peel con- tinued to run. Then he raised it over his head, hurled earthwork that protected the guns. No sooner had it left his hands than it burst with a terrific crash. A mo- ment later he would have sacrificed his own life for his battery. But it it were not for presence of mind the battery would have been ruined.
