The Twelfth Annual Convention of Mariposa Township Sabbath School Association was -held at- Salem Cor- ners on Friday afternoon, Nov. 30. 1906. and was a decided success in every respect. There was a good representation from the vanious Sabbath Schools of the Township. After devotional eXercise. led by the Rev. E. E. (‘raggx 13.0., Manilla. the chair was taken by the Presi- dent. Mr. I. McKee. of Little llri- tain. The address of the afternoon was given by the Rev. Mr. Leitch of Sonya. on “Better Teachers and How to Secure Them.“ Mr. Leitch handled his subject in a very clever manner, the address was very ear- nest, very helpful, and was listened to by- an appreCiative audience. The solo by Miss Graham. of Salem. is deserving ofi particular mention. The Round Table Conference was con- ductedgby Rev._ G. “R. Clare, of Mill- hrook. . The evening session commenced with a. song service and devotional exercise. led by the Rev. J. E. Moore. Ph. 8!. of Little Britain. followml by music by Valentin choir. Valentin has every reason to be proud of their choir. Rev. G. R. Clare's address, "Teachers, their Helps and Hlindrances," clearly dealt with the importance of- the work in which Sunday school teachers are engaged and ought to be productive of much good. This address was folloned by Singing from Valentin choir in their usual pleasing style. Rev.

In commone- ing he spoke in complimentary terms of what he had bean! of the L. 0.1. lecture course, not .nticlpating then that he would be called on to take part in it. The whale tribe was, he said, an interesting one, because it included the largest animals on the globe. it was amlstake to suppose that larger animals existed in the past. There was no record of larger animals than those among the whale tribe. It wasa diminishing tribe. Some species were extinct that ex- isted fifty or sixty years ago. The subject of whales was of special in- terest in Canada became no country oh the face of the globe allorded as many of them as the «raters n! Cana- da.

It is a miSfi take to suppose that the whale‘ spouts water. The spouting is cauS- ed by the whale coming to the sur- face of the water and ejecting damp air from its lungs.- This :n'oScs In the form of \‘aer, and. sometimes who it condenses quid-21v through contact, with cold‘ air falls in the form of spray. The whale has no fins. The paddles or flippers are really» .their hands, and have at their ends what correspond to fingers. Smaller protuberanoee are found in some whales for which no use has been discovered. near the tail and this has led to the theory that whales Were at one time land an- lmals. but having no longer use for hind legs since they took to the wat- er they have almost disappeared. These small attachments are some- times overlooked by Whalers in cut- ting the animal up. The tail of a fish is perpendicular in the water, while that of the whale is horizontal. it is used for propelling the animal through the water with great power and speed. The whalebone hangs in sheets in the mouth. sometimes fifteen foot long. It acts asn strainer for the food. which is composed of mul- titudes of small animals found in the Arctic Seas. The capacity of the mouth in a large whale is about 200 cubic feet. Whalehone is now used in weaving silk. afine thread of it running through the clotn. Artificial flowers are made of it, and the most durable wigs. The value of whaling lis seen when it is stated that whale- ‘bone is worth $15,000 aton. The .sperm whale is a tooth whale. (The professor exhibited atooth and also part of a sheet of whalebone.) This whale has a large head. and it is from it that spermacetl is? obtained. The eye of the whale is situated just. behind the jaws. It has no external rrean of hearing but bones are found which are supposed to beithe intern- al ears, and the Professor expressed the opinion that the whale heard through its .iaw. through connection with the ear. He spoke of whales in our seas attaining a length of forty to fifty feet. some as high as 65 feet, and exhibited. a picture of one captur- odon the coast of Scotland 110 feet long. The heart of awhale pumps l20 times as much blood as the heart 01a man. '1‘he aorta isas wide across as a man's waist. It is said that the sea has been reddened with blood when a whale was killed which is literally true. .The whale ism in- ofiensi\'e animal. and the old stories of its attacking vessels are not true. The mother whale is véry fond of her beenmore present but for the' in- tnnsely Cold weather. Judge= Handing wok the chair, and introduced â€" the lecturer. Prof. E. A. Prince.
