THE HORSE - MUSSEL

On Nov. 22, 1M8. there was brought to me from Augustine Gave, Lot 28. a specimen of the Horse-mussel. a moilusc f had not seen before. W. l". Gahong. in his “Economic Moliusco of Acadia" (i589), states that his species is abundant in N. S. and N. B. and “doubtless occurs in P. -E. 1.. but has not been reported." In this matter he was wrong. lcr in a “Report on the Resources of P. E. 1. 081i) by W. is. Dawson the Horse- mussel is named as one of the three species of Mussels found here. It is also mentioned by Francis Baln, “Natural History of P. E. I.” (1890).

Linnaeus. who first named it called it Myttllus modioluo. (Mod- lolus signifies a little bucket. or a little measure or dipper.) It was afterwards called Mitdiola modiolul, by conchologist Turton; and still later one finds it named Modlolua modioluu. It is necessary to know al‘ these names, to be sure oi what one reads about. Garong prefers Linnaeus/s name; Morris that of Turton.

The Horse-mussel inhabits rocky shores from low-water mark to a. depth of 100 fathoms. lt does not, however, live in great beds as the Edible or Black Mussels do. The Horse-mussel is somewhat of an individualistic turn of mind. and uses its strong byssus Wbeard of threads") to construct a kind of nest or refuge on the ocean floor. The byssus ls attached to gravel, pebbles, and shell fragments, and if the mussel is torn from its refuge in the tire-pools, it brings away a large mass of gravel too. The shells themselves bear many growths. both animal and veget- able. '

“The Horse-mussel ls used for food in England, though to no great extent. and only locally.” says Prof. Ganong. tPersonally I never heard of this, though the Edible Mussel is used for food just as we use clams here. Great quantities of of mussels are cooked, and after- wards sold in the streets and in the public bars) “The Acadian

brown color (never blue-black). A light-chestnut "gasket" seals the valves. Within the lining of the valves is of a beautiful pearly lustre. Bleached shells often show a. lavender tint when the epider- mis has disappeared. Usual length about 6 inches, though extremely large (Sinch) specimens have been found. My specimen is but 3.5 inches long.

A Retrospect (a)

A sharper contrast between the Victorian times and the present {especially in Britain) is the ‘then prominence of religion both in “C of E." and Nonconformist house- holds, with church-going as the unvarylng rule. _My years from 12 (when I joined the choir), to 40. musl- have been punctuated by

about 3.000 sermons, presumably of some influence though little comes to mind of their contents. The last Anglican clergyman, of whose congregation I was a mem- ber, was fond of preaching about the "Northumbrian Saints" whose lives he described after the mariner of a historian; but he gave us little guidance for the nineteenth century. On retrospect I am sure that I derived more lasting guid- ance from the study of the Ten Commandments at Sunday School confirmation Class. In day school the emphasis was more commonly placed upon contentment and duty, and the wisdom of modest aims. We have come a long my since then. but can we sincerely say that our aims are better?‘

In my early days politics oc- cupied a position which we can hardly appreciate now. Those were the days of the “Grand Old Man" William E. Gladstone. and his arlstrocatic opponent, the Earl of Beoconsfleld, Benjamin Disraeli, lu i868 Gladstone formed the first Liberal Government Previously those English politicians who op- posed the court party had been termed ‘ twigs"; but now more advanced whigs and refor- mers were first named "Liberals" in a derogatory sense meaning French Revolutionaries! In the present. era we can look back and see nothing more "revolutionary" than the awakening of the social conscience of England. In 1880 Just as Gladstone was entering his second term of office with high hopes they were considerably bed- evilled when atheist Charles Brad- laugh refused to take the parlia- mentary oath on the Bible. The hubbub that followed was eased when Bradlaugh was allowed to make "affirmation" instead of tak- ing the oath.

This period was most interesting

for the cartoonists and political

poetasters were brilliant and the two chiefs made speeches that were masterpieces of satire. Dis- raeli accused Gladstone of being “intoxicated with the exuberance of his own verbosity." a phrase not yet forgotten. A witty fellow com- posed "A Personal Explanation" by W. E. G. logultur:

"My speech upon Irish affairs Was wrapped in rhetorical mist. And nobody knew

What scheme I'd in view. Supposing a scheme to exist."

Gladsiones policy was in general approved by the mass of the people and may be looked on as the pre-

The Bold Eagle s;

This Eagle is the national em- . blem of the United States. It is not bald, for it has plenty of feathers on its head, but the effect of baldness is produced by their‘ white coloration. It is about the. some size as the Golden Eagle, but it differs both in habits and habitat. Its food is mostly fish which it captures by plunging down. sometimes even below the surface of the stream or lake. Uri it may attack the Osprey and force that bird to relinquish the fish it has captured. Large birds, includ- ing coots, ducks and geese. are also taken and one of the Eagle's] favorite stunts is to repeatedly dive at. a bird, forcing it. to sub- merge till exhausted when it. be- comes an easy PreY- W686 H810! have been known to kill lambs. and foxes. It also has an unfortunate habit (for a national bird) of searching for and eating dead fish and earl-ion. Still, as has been pointed out. more than once. it has a noble appearance and is master of the air. As to habitat. it has a preference for the sea coast. and the rellonl round lakes and rivers. The North- ern Bald Eagle breeds from Alaska and British Columbia to the Great Lakes and Nova Bcoiia; raving in winter south to Washing- ton, Montana, and Connecticut. The young eagles do not attain adult plumage till their third year. Northern Bald Eagle AOU. 352.
