Christmas iiailing At S’sido Same As Previous Year

The Christmas business at the summnrslde Post Office has been about the same as last year, Mr. Arthur Allen, the post master. has informed The Guardian. On Fri- day, their largest day for outgoing mall. approximately 20000 ‘otters were stamped. The outgoing rush i; now over but the incoming mail will continue heavy till Christmas eve. The stamp sales for last week amounted to over $2.000.

Five extra men have been add- ed. to the staff for the rush period and one m-fin h been hired to deliver parcels o the residences. This practice, which was inaugur- ated last year. is o-f great assist- snce in cutting down the conges- tion ln the already overcrowded office. It also helpa to “' ably rut down the congestion in the lobby and at the wickets It is also of considerable convenience to the residents who do not have to carry home their parcels,

The wickets and lobbies will be closed on Christmas Day. Crvzens should remember therefore that they wlll'not be able to get their mall on Christmas Day n: the building will not be open and they should arrange to pick it up on Christmas eve. This i»: not a rui- ing of the local officials but. of the Post Office DepartmenL-S.

Part of this project was a. search by plane for the nesting Irmmds of the cranes in Canada. Piloted by Terrls Moore, pregt. dent of the Boston Museum of Natural History. and with Dr. Olin Sewall Pettingill, Jr., zoology pro- fessor at Carleton College, North- field. Mlnn.. who headed the huntl for the stone's nesting ground, as Passenger, tho plane covered thou:- ands of square miles of the North- west Territories. vast areas in the Lake Athsbaska district. in north- western Soskatchcvtan air/i north- eastern Alberta. But the whooping crane succeed- ed for another year in keeping its nesting grounds a big secret. Not a single nest, not. even n solitary cralve was found in lliliS extensive region. It is now thought possible

“Gcd

that the birds go father northwest» ward in the breeding season. andb the spring and summer of 1941 a wider and more intensive survey wll be made.

The crane. a large bird named after its resonant call, stands more than four feet tail and has a wing spread of approximately seven feet. The adult bird is white except for the black tips of the wings. Once the nesting grounds of the whoop- ing crane are discovered. protection will be given it in the hope that the speolea will increase in numbers. The ram bird once nested in prairie marshes in Minnesota, with the last known nesting record at Thief lake in 1M9. Civilization apparently has pushed the extremely wary bird from its more southerly breeding grounds to northern Canada.

Only known wintering ground of the crane is on the Aranses Bird Refuge in Texas. Reports said 17 of the birds arrived there recently and that three of the birds were young, hatched this year. A hun- dred years or so ago the whooping crane was present in inpressive munbers and seen yearly in migra- tions along the Mississippi river.

Canadians who have been winter visitors to south Florida will re- member the coconut palms growing at all sort: of odd angles along the shores and keys. These palms are mt natives of that state. but were planted long ago when a ship. lad- en with 00c . was hopelessly wrecked and its cargo floated
