Ottawa.—Thousands of sea birds—

, the scene which presents itself to
se visitor to the big sanctuaries of
ae Guif of St. Lawrence, says the
anadian bureau of patural resources.
Since the earliest times the bird
ocks of the Magdelen islands, Perce
lock and Bonaventure island off the
laspe coast and the islands along the
orth shore of the gulf have been the
reeding grounds for countless num-
erg of sea birds, and the protection
heir bird inhabitants received be
ause of the Migratory Birds Conven-
lon act has resulted in greatly in
reasing their numbers.
Each year the sanctuaries are vis-
ted by a migratory bird officer from
he department of the interior and
wareful note is made of the increase
ymong the birds.
The fame of the bird sanctuaries of
he St. Lawrence, which pumber 13,
as spread and growing throngs of
ourists make the trip by rail or
teamer each year. The Gaspe coust
ookeries were set aside in 1919 and
‘hose along the northern shore of the
yulf were established in 1925. All
are under the joint control of the
Dominion government and the Quebec
provincial authorities.
The bird sanctuaries off the Gaspe
poast, which are reached with ease by
rail to the quaint little town of Perce,
are better known than those of the
north shore and consequently fhe
thrilling picture of the great throngs
of gannets which inhabit the Bird
Rocks, Perce Rock and Bonaventure
{sland are known to many.
Skeletons Ages Old
Unearthed in England
London.—Five human skeletons and
ten funeral urns containing ashes have
been unearthed at Manea, Cambridge
shire. They have probably been
buried for thousands of years. and
may belong to the neolithic or bronze
ages,
‘ Excavations are still in progress.
The site was marked only by a slight
symmetrical rise in the center of a
field, which has for some time past
been suspected of being an ancient
barrow or tumulus.
All the skeletons were in the same
attitude. The bodies had been buried
in a contracted position with the knees
pent and the feet drawn up to the
body. The hands were placed either
under the head or supporting the chin,
‘Bach skeleton was lying on its side,
apd the eral posture was that of a
person sleeping.
The urns are broken, but it may be
possible to piece the fragments to
gether.
A number of good specimens 0
fiints and other objects of antiquarian
interest have also been found, and It
is expected that further discoveries
will be made on the site.

Malone, N. Y.—A belted kingfisher
crashed into the show window of an
automobile dealer and broke its neck.
The firemen at the station next door
turned it over to Raymond Patnode,
taxidermist.
Patnode said the tird undoubtedly
pecame confused and thought the win-
dow was clear sailing. He sald these

that contrary to popular belief, there
are many of them nearby. Some of
them have poached goldfish from back

Caves Valuable, Apart

The limestone caves at Waimoto
in New Zealand bring tourists from
every part of the world to see the
extraordinary beauties of the glow:
worm cavern with its myriad stars of
phosphorescent fire. The Mendip
caves of Somersetshire and the Peak
cavesn of Derbvshire, England, have
thousands of visitors yearly, and so
has the Mammoth cave of Kentucky.
The Mammoth cave had quantities of
saltpeter in it whicn were dug and
carried away for making gunpowder
But many caves have a value apart
from that of mere scenic splendor.
In the bush country near Te Kiuti
in Auckland a huge cavern ir which
is a wonderful deposit of alabaster.
has been recently discovered. An-
other cave called the Carlsbad cav-
ern, discovered under the Gaudaloupe
mountains, in New Mexico, has great
beds of rock salt. This place is said
to rival the Mammoth cavern for

(The following report of the Bellefonte
High school football game with Morris-
dale was taken from this week's issue
of the Bellefontian.
In face of the fact that Captain
“Sammy” Confer was out of the
lineup on account of to his
shoulder, the Red and White defeat-
ed the strong Morrisdale team by a
three touchdown margin.
“Shopey” was the acting head
man while “Bob” Heverly called the
signals. :
The grade children were the guests
of the B. H. S. A. A. and they acted
as though they enjoyed the fracas
immensely
The “Red and White” band was al-
so present, and under the leadership
of Mr. Wion they played the “Alma
Mater” like nobody's business.
FIRST QUARTER
kicking to the “Cheetahs.” Shope re- |
ceived and with good interference
and splendid field running, succeed-
ed in carrying the ball for a marker,
but to our dismay the ball was call-
ed back and a 15 yard penalty was
imposed on a Red and White play-
er who was accused of “clipping
from behind.” “Max” Kelley punt-
ed 38 yards against the wind, Mor-
risdale advanced the ball to our four
yard line then lost it on downs,
Kelley kicked, a pretty 40
yard punt, the Morrisdale team
fumbled on the next play and Kelley
recovered. A pass Kelley to Hever-

play B. H. S. fumbled and the ball
is recovered by Morrisdale as the

SECOND QUARTER

but they couldn’t get around “Bud”
Kelleher” who dropped the opposing
runner for a three yard loss, Morris-
dale punted 10 yards, on the next
play Kelley rounded left end for a
20 yard gain. Then “Bob” Heverly
made 20 yards in the same manner.
10 yards was all that was needed for
a touchdown which “Max” gained on
the next play. The “Red and White”
tried a pass for the extra point but
this was grounded. B. H. S. kicked
to Morrisdale and then forced Mor-
risdale aggregation to punt. Shope
went round left end for 14 yards,
and “Newt” Fisher made a nice 5
yard gain off tackle. On the next
play Kelley advanced the ball 5
more yaras, then Heverly fumbled, a
Morrisdale man pounced on the
leather. Dry made a nice tackle
back of the Morrisdale line, the
«Red and White” line held and Mor-
risdale was forced to punt. Our ball,
but we were unsuccessful in gaining
a first down then Kelley punted, a
nice 50 yard kick. Again Morrisdale
tried a long end run but “Max” roll-
ed the runner for a 5 yd loss. After
2 plays Shopey went off tackle for
25 yards and our second touchdown
as the half ended and the score 12-0
in our favor.

Morrisdale was forced to kick, and
the punt went 15 yards, Kelley re-

yards before he was downed. On
' the next play Kelley made a nice
run for about 25 yards and he was
dropped just a few feet from the
Morrisdale goal line, the ball, how-
ever, was called back to the 20 yard
line, Kelley stepped over the side-
line in his run. Bellefonte was penal-
ized on the mext play for holding.
Then Kelley threw a nice pass to
Kelleher on the receiving end and
“Bud” ran unmolested for our third
and final touchdown. Kick for extra
point was blocked. Bellefonte again
kicked off to Morrisdale, who ad-

tain team was forced to kick. They
retaliated and held us for downs and
Kelley punted for 40 yards against
the wind. “Bob” Heverly stop
Morrisdale’s end run and threw the
runner for a 5 yard loss. Morris-

The Federal Reserve Bank.
The collapse of the stock market has not affected
sound banking institutions which are in strong position
with ample reserves. Undoubtedly, this gratifying con-
dition is due in large measure to the Federal Reserve
System, which again has demonstrated the invaluable
character of its service.
Those who remember how, in the past, severe panics
on the New York Stock Exchange usually were follow-
ed by acute currency shortage, exciting general distress
and fear, how they marked the beginning of a prolonged
business depression, can realize how this great reservoir
of credit has prevented what otherwise may have proved
to be the worst financial calamity in our history.
We do not believe that the effects of this break will
be prolonged, but that, during the coming year, there
will be such recovery as will warrant renewed optimism.
