BRAVING WINTER.

Apart from the question of nourishment. most birds are eflurpped to stand freezing weath- er, but food is their great prob- lem: in fact it is the most import- ant reason for migration. They require even more in cold than in warm seasons. and many kinds cannot assimilate sufficient for existence as the days grow shorter and the temperature drops. Eng- ilih Sparrows. Blue Jays, and oth- ers that we are accustomed to see throughout the winter are in the "”"0F1”-.Y. 'being able to absorb enough to. produce energy. Cer- tain. species consume as much during a short as during a long day. We wonder if they eat faster. Whcnfood is plentiful. many birds "F Wlllma to brave our Canadian winter.

Some of the small birds that nest iiorvtvh of settlements. such as Snow Hunting; and Red-polls. come down to us in winter and feed on weeds that protrude be- yond the snow. The Northern Shrike survives by following these

flocks and dining off little birds. The Rock Ptarmigan. with an ex- ceptionally wiirm coat, and heavily feathered legs and toes, withstands the extreme cold of the arctic be1 cause its preferred food comprises. berries. buds, and seeds that can be had up in fir trees. above snow lcvcl. Migration is unnecessary. The Snowy Owl. in a thick, ilii-fly coat, ordinarily rcmains in its northern breeding grounds. But every few years its habitual diet of lemmings gives out. Then migration south as far as our towns takes place. There it stops, at- tracted by the nnmbcrless rodents on our city dum-ps.

Chlckadees, Nut-hatches. and most Woodpeckcrs are hardy. and throughout wirrter find food to their taste on Canadian tree trunks. Blue Jays choose acorns when pos- sible, but can live on insc-cts. grain. or fruit. Permanent residence here is therefore possible. Seeds of coniferous trees. wild. waste fruit left hanging on trees. and seeds of Manitoba ma-pics keep Canadian born Crossbills. Pine and Evening Grosbeaks from leaving us.

One bitterly cold December day a hard. dirty little object was found on the tiles of the fire-place of the living-room. Inspection proved it to be a crust. The next day more bread came down the chimney, and Starlings' voiccs could be heard. Now, whenever the temperature drops near zero we listen for Starling: talking. You may not have them inside your chimney. but when weather is particularly cold. look at your neighbours roofs. and how Star- lings love to sit on the rims of chimney pots.

Where are the migrants?

W.C.T.U. NOTES

"IT IS A SIN" By REV. DOES C. EATON:

--r-'1

excerpts from- The Maritime Baptist)

The common use oi beverage al- cohol - or "drinking" as we shall conveniently call it in this arti- cle - may be regarded nrom s dozen viewpoints. It may be stud- ied "physiologically" with a con- sideration of the effects of alcohol. on the nerves and the tissues of the body. There is a vast amount of reliable scientific knowledge available these days to 81V! It pretty accurate account of what happened in the use of drink. Drinking creates 1 great "Health" problem. with the rapid increase of alcoholism and diseases that accompany heavy drinking. W3 have what is commonly regarded these days as "Health Problem Number Four" coming right: up toward the front with heart dis- eases, cancer, etc. Here. also. is a "Psychological" problem. The Yale School of Alcohol Studies has been telling us again and again that these alcoholics and heavy drinkers have inner dis- turbances and neuroses, are psy- chologically sick and cannot be understood or' dealt with apart from that light.

A Moral Problem

Let us now see how basically and deeply it is a. "Moral Prob- lem." Like so many of our other social problems it carries us right down into the moral and religious realm. When we deal with matters from this viewpoint, we are get- ting down into the heart of things. We are looking at things from the ultimate standard and are trying to see them even as God would see them. Let. us then say it again. This is a moral concern, it is a matter of "right and wrong." Let us even go one step further and say it. "It is a sln- to drink." There are many who think that the passing of any such moral judgments on the habits of so many people is extreme and un- warranted.

What makes a thing right or wrong? What is the Justification for our claim here that "It Is a Sin.'.? our answer is that moral- ity is based upon Human Welfare Le Comte De Nuoy in "Human Destiny" wrltes:-

"Anything which opposes this evolution in the moral and spirit- ual realm, anything which brings about a regression toward the animal to replace man under the dictature of the body is contrary to the DIR.EC'I'ING WILL and is ABSOLUTE EVIL. Anything which tends to deepen the chasm between man and beast on the other hand is good."

It. is our conviction that God Himself is concerned in this world primarily with human good and welfare, and in His sight anything which destroys. debases and do- grades the life of His children is "Evil", and anything which liber- ates and lifts is "Good." It is on this basis that we make our judg- ment about drink and drinking. Drinking is wrong because of what it does to man. It is a "sin" because of its total effects upon human society. We take our stand here.

let us sum up our case under four simple statements-

I. Drink la a Killer

Summing up all killed by vio- lence. murders and brawls, in diseases directly attributable to drink, in highway accidents due to drinking and you would have a staggering total that would leave you gasping. My latest shock came Just a few days ago in hearing of a fine friend of oollege days who Just; "drank himself to death." There is still strong sup ort for the statement that drin is a greater killer than war. True it is that only a very small percent- age of those who drink suffer an untimely death, but the casualty list is heavy. Most men who go to war return. but we mourn our deiid. and the sin of war as with (brink consists in what it does to men. Drink is a "killer."

2. Drink is a "Crippler" .

It is true with drink as I with other great social evils, the list of the crippled and wounded is far girealer than those killed outright. We are thinking now of those who are actually physically wounded and handicapped for life, and those morally and psychologically wounded so as to be unfit for the race of life. Two weeks ago I met a friend of former days. 1. mar. with a brilliant mind and great talents. who all through his life haatbeen but the poor shadow of the msn he might have been, he- csuse of the crippling powers of drink upon him. He Ls living and grubbing along. but wounded and bearing the scars of the great crtppler drink. The number is le- gion, as you know.

8. Drink is a sister

Here is the alarming. the stag- gerlng fact of the growing army of men snd women who are the poor victims of the habit. in-America alone. it is conser- vatively estimated that there are today between 750.000 and 1.000.- 000 alcoholics who are caught in the toils of this enslavement and who are totally unable to extri- cate themselves. and who will go down to drunkard'a graves unless rescued by the Grace of Clod. Al- coholics Anonymous. or kindly treatment in hospitalization. And no person who takes his first glass can determine whether or not he may be one of that unfortunate company.
