It's a true saying that we never soc the other side of the moon. The moon turns as it moves so mat the same side is always to- wards us. When the sun shines on the side turned away from us. the moon is dark, When the sun shines directly on the side facing us we my "the moon is full." But when he sun shines on only part. of the iidC facing us. we see either a 'irst or last quarter of the moon.

Amiough there is no sunlight in he Arctic for six months, it is rover really dark because .the Aui'm'a Borealis pours down pink. ma purple and blue lights across the land. .

Every living thing we see is made up of microscopic cells. Every human being is made up of thirty billion of them- And though we never suspect it. these cells are constantly wearing out and bplng replaced by new ones.

Everyone in the Yellowknife gold mining town can be a radio star.

Known as the Voice of the Gold- rn North. C F Y K is a commu- liliy affair in which anyone may rake part. It has no scheduled pro- grams. no paid announcers. and no pcimancnt staff. Programs are mostly amateurish, but never with- out surprises. Originality does it.

From the beginning of time life iias ii never-ending struggle for CXlSI.BflCe. One creature devoured another. Then for some unknown reason most of the jelly-like crea- iurcs armed themselves with a hard, protecting cover of shell.

Did you know that at first ev- ('l'y living creature was blind? They had to find their way a- round by means of feelers. and strange as it may sound to the average reader. these feelers gradually evolved into eyes! They are called "stalked eyes" because ihey grow at the end of the feel- -rs - a lobster for example, still has such eyes.

Ti-is sting of the blue scorpion is not fatal to man. although it causes the whole body to become numb for 24 hours.

or scorpions I must tell you about "15 time my brother and I and one of our neighbors saw a taran- W13 lump from a stock of ban- Inn thlt hung in the store at Lorna Valley.

We hunted the creature but could not find it and came to the conclusion that it escaped into the cellar through a crack in the floor. I W35 Very iznorant of the ban- ana bug at that time and thought if it had bitten one of us we would surely die. I have since learned that this tropical creature is not able to inflict a serious bite on a human being. But a bite from a t;anrantula can be extremely pain- f .

Sometime ago I read where . large rat bitten by a banana bug became incapacitated in exactly 15 minutes. The rat lay in a coma about an hour. then began to show signs of recovery. it apparently was normal again within four hours.

Clarence Beaumont. once of the Pittsburg Pirates. was the only National League batting champion who failed to hit a home run dur- mg a season. He won the crown in 1902 with a mark of .357.

Snow is not frozen rain as many persons believe. It is frozen cloud. The tiny vapor drops meetleach other as they freeze making six pointed snowflakes.

Some tribes of the North Ameri- can lndians made snowshoes of small branches and deerskin.

Hail is rain that has frozen be- fore it hits the earth. These frozen bits of ice are carried to and fro among the clouds until they gath- er more water and snow, or until they get so heavy they fall to earth. The stories may be very tiny or as big as baseballs.

White men learned only in com- paratively recent times that .ma- laria is carried by mosquitoes. However. the Masai. a tribe in Central Africa. knew the secret for so long that their word for malaria means literally, "l have been bit- ten by a mosquito."

TREK OF PRIME PEI LIVESTOCK

UNDER WAY FOR

Home of Prince Edward Islands belt livestock is today on the way in Amherst where it will compete next week against the best in the

sister provinces at the Maritime Winter Fair. Perhaps the most notable ex-

hibit from this Province is Edgeles Beacon Jesteris standard. a Jersey sire owned by Edison B. Mutch of North River who took him into the circle reserved for Grand champ- ions at the Royal Winter Fair last year. It was the second year in a row- that Mr. Mutch had led a senior sire into the charmed and seclusive circle. The previous year Mr. Mutch won the grand champ-

ionship with Jcsters standard Dreamer. The Dreamer is not in Mr.

Mutch's herd now but he is hit- ting the Grand champions circles in big shows in the United states. He is owned in Columbus, Ohio. and has been grand champion four times in the six shows he has ent- ered this year.

Jersey Judge atAmherst this year will be Bill Dean of Michigan. Speaking of judges recalls to mind the fact that last fall Edgelen Bea- con Jester Standard was placed second in a class of two by another judge at Amherst. Yet a few days later the same animal went. grand champion at the Royal. Canada's biggest. and best agricultural show.

Other animals in Mr. Mulch's show herd that are Amherst bound include Rivci-north Oscar's spotty, the senior and grand champion

Harold Palmer of Kensinglon will be the biggest Island show- man In Guernscys at Amherst. But some good stock is also entered from the herds of Owen Younker and Son. Kingston and Ernest F. Coles and Son of Milton.

He was junior male champ- ion and reserve grand at Char- lottetown in August. other top show animals in the Palmer herd include Brackley Nora, the senior and grand champion here in Aug- ust and Brackley Nellie 2nd the reserve senior female champion.
