I rm sing-nests! Duck

The earliest record of this bird in the Provir-Le appears to be in the fall of 1939 when several were shot at Frazer's Beaver Dam, at Avondale. No mention is made of ithis species in the lists of Island ,birds published in 1910 nor in 1936 though Dr. PA. Ibuvemcr in 1919 rwrote of it a: "a scarce migrant lhi the east (d! Canada) where it lonce nested occasionally." I’. is scarce too on the Great Lakes, but ! “breeds regulariv in the west". In ‘ 1940 twelve airs of Ringmecked Ducks were ound nesting in the Avondale are; and as they were protected by the game warden, doubtless they have increased since than. The descriptions of this duck in the manuals, do not quite tally. and I suppose the reason to be that the young ‘Ir-lids and females may be misakcn :or Scaups, Gold. en-eyes, Redheads or Canvas-boars. However here is a. reliable, if somewhat lengthy picture. ltlngmecked. or Ring-billed Duck. .0.U. 150. Summer resident. first observed circa 1939. Male: Head. ‘neck, breast and back black; an hidlstlmt narrow chestnut neck- ring; chin white and the rest of the underparis mainly white; wings dark with a gray speculum. Eye yellow; bill with a white ring at the base and a white bond ncar the end. Female with no white feathers at the base of the bill distinction from the Scaupsi; a line while eye ring; speculum gray as in the male This is a. sea-duck as shown by lhe broad flap on. the hind toe. Length 16 about 7.5 in.

Anent Old Books

By the kindness of a friend in the eastern nan of the Island I am in possession of the "Old Auth. urs’ Flax-m" catalogue of oruz-of-prlnt books. This is ibe best list of such wonks that I have seen, and a short lntrodulztion. is in order. The proprietor appears to have car. rled on a. bookselling business in Ottawa originally. but moved to s. country farm (which he named as above), near Mozrlsburg, Ont. It was a shrewd move when. he made friends with the loos-l auctioneers, who phoned him when any books were to be sold This might cause him to rise at 0 a.m. for a sleigh drive to a distantfarm while the temperature was at 30 below zero.

t things we do for our cus- tnmersl" is his cherry conclusion.

The two lust pages of the list are devoted to original 51.411} sheets from 1802 onward. Steprien Fbst- er's songs are well represented.

There is offered an “Abrldge. merit of Alnsworlhs Dictionary. English-Latin. Classical. Thomas Morrell Lon. l8c4. Original calf. Thick. 4 to 1700 pp An authority, $2 00

I have this Latin dictionary and would not sell it for $10! The first part is lilngllsh-Intin and the Eng. llsh embraces a great many words not now used. For instance, a “u'hcrret" is alapa in Latin. and turrr-lng to that word we find. that e whet-let is a slap. j »

The first part is paged up to p.144, ihen inn printer thought better of it and left them- unnum- bered. The second part lLatin. English) has S18 pages and the third part (proper names) has 32 pages. Perhaps 1300 pages in. all. The Latin word has every use ex- plained with aporopriate quotations from classical authors. Two dollars for a work like this, implies that Latin is not appreciated in Can- ada.

A writer in a popular magazine tells of seeing a Bern Johnson's Dictionary on the Island. It was Samuel Johnson who was the hcxi- cographer. Ben Jonson was a great actor and dramatist.

The boys of Sandard VI —the M50110!‘ w" elito- were Judgal worthy of high- er things. The writing gave place to printing. The mom] maxlms. etc. wereydeflnitely “out”. The pages were headed by alphabets of various types, both caps zirri lower case. Here was where the "Old English" type came in: lt ivas still used in legal headings, church de. coratlons, inscriptions on bells and on clock faces, etc. Or: the last pages there was an alphabet of human figures more or less humor- ous (and rather less than more); for instance, a round foolish-look.

Increased Oonsimiptlon

1. Does making liquor more easily available tend to diminish con- siunption of ilquor and to de. crease consequent drunkenness as some Ontario legislators claim? No. Before the first World War, Public Houscs in Britain. were open for i9 1-2 hours a.- day. Following a campaign leal by King George V during that War, hours
