Dr. G..l. Wherrett, the Canadian Tuberculosis Assoc- iation, returned from New York to- day and said lie is "enthused" with the new drug's performance.

The drug is rimifon. invented by United states scientists and in use experimentally at the Sea View Hospital in New York. '

Dr. Wherrett said rimlfon is "not I V0116?! drill!" in the sense that it will do away with all other tuber- culosis treatment, but it will be I "useful additional aid." He compared it with streptomy- cin, now in use in connection with 'r.n. treatment and said rimiton appears to be cheaper to make and easier to handle. Streptomycin is injcted by hypodermic. Rimifon is in tablet form.

UNINIENTIONAL KINDNESS

Like ourselves, the inhabitants. o( Birdlahd are sometimes unin- tentionally kind to others. thel. chief benefactors being Wood- peckers. Houses of all sizes are carved by the various types oi Woodpeckers (or their own famil- ies, and are afterwards used by, birds that are unable to fashion their own homes.

They range from the huge hole, three or more feet deep, excavat-, ed by the Pileaied Woodpecker in the trunk of a large tree, to the Downy's little apartment with a. round entrance only about one and a quarter inches in diameter. The doorway of the Pileated is oh- lortg. almost square, measurln. three and a half by three and a quarter inches, giving plenty oil

But the best carpenter is the Flicker. This Woodpecker and his wife work together, chlselling out their home in some tall, dead tree. It may be only a few feet above the ground, or as much as 90 feet up, with an opening about two and three-quarter to three inches in

Pictures on the left illustrate the "battle of the plows" to re-open highways ,and roads blocked in the recent series of storms. The pictures directly above, supplied by Mr. J. Finley MacLeod, were taken in 1926 and show the Souris train almost completely en-

gulfed by the huge snow banks. The scene is just 100 or 150 yards out of Souris.

The lower right picture shows the plow derailed. A telephone pole in the back; ground gives some indication of the height: of the banks. Mr. MacLeod states that near here the train crew were walking over the lines. The train crew included John Hughes, baggage-master; Cliff Cox, brakeman; a Mr. Donovan, fire- man; Cyrus Partridge, engineer; Jack Horton, express messenger and J. F. MacLeod, -

conductor; Ed Moynagh,

mail clerk. The pictures were taken by Morley Acorn, Souris.

Ducks now and again lay in the nests of other Ducks. The canvas- back is most ltrequently imposed on, especially by the Red-head and Buddy. and these two play the same trick on each other.

How early do birds returni SPRINGFIELD W. I.

The March meeting of spring- field W. I. was held at the home of Mrs. Crawford sinclsir with ten members and two visitors present. In the absence of the president. the vice-president, Mrs. Reginald Hasiam, presided.

Sick committee reported two get- well and one sympathy card sent and one pair of socks was passed in to the Red Cross. It was decided that the secretary should write to

Estons and Sirnpsons for rem- nants. All interested in sending old

noollens away for blankets were asked to have them ready by the next meeting. Correspondence was then read and discussed and one get-well card was acknowledged.

The following new committees were appointed. School: Mrs. Wil- liam Hsslam; lunch: Mrs. Hughes. Mrs. William "aslam and Mrs. Keith Mayne: programme: .'Iiiss Emily Howard and Miss Marion Ramsay. Mrs. Norris Sinclair in- vited the members to her home for the next meeting when the roll call will be answered with a "house- cleaning hint".

But several other species. unwit- tingly, do good deeds. The Mterlin is a Hawk unable to make its own dwelling, so besides woodpeckers wooden houses also uses the stick nests of Crows or Magpies. The Long-cared Owl also likes these. Purple crackles have been known to bring up families in crevices around the edge of big, untidy nests of Ospreys when those birds were actually in residence.

Big birds that are not builders -.'ind themselves restricted in choice. The 20 inch hlsh Barred owl requires either a large hol- low in it tree or a large stick nest. The still bigger Great Horned Owl takes over, neglected homes of Bald Eagles, Red-tailed Hawks, or even Herons.

DEAR MISS DIX; Do you think a boy can show his love too I'm 16 and he is 17. We go to the same school and he calls for me every morning. He waits for me after every class. and calls me up when I get home in the afternoon, and on Saturday and Sunday sometimes he talks for an hour.

calls me about four times.

W. M. ANSWER: This surely is overdolng it! Your family must have infinite patience to let you monopollre the telephone so much. Few households would permit it. Tell your friend that you must leave the telephone free once in a while so the other members of the family can make or receive calls. Short of hurting the boy's feelings, how- ever, you can't do much about his mooning around at school. What

kind of marks does he get, anyway. with so much romancing?
