As distances go in space, the
earth is quite close to the sun
—only 93 million miles away.
Pluto, the solar system's most
remote planet, orbits around the
sun about four billion miles
from it. But there is reason to
believe that another planet may
yet be discovered beyond Pluto,
further still from the sun.

Where Are Musk -Ox Found?
The Musk -Ox is a large, ox -
like animal of the Canadian
tundra regions and the Arctic
Islands. It ranges as far north
as Ellesmere Island, west to
Great Slave Lake and east to
Hudson Bay.
Musk -Oxen remain in essen-
tially the same area through-
out the year, despite the severe
Arctic winters. During heavy
blizzards they take refuge in
the lee of the hills. In more
favorable weather they graze
on the uplands where the wind
has swept away the snow and
exposed the plants — dwarf
willows, saxifrages, grasses and
sedges—that form the bulk of
their food. When the snow cov-
ering is deep, they are obliged
to paw away the crust to reach
the plants.
The wolf is their only ser-
ious enemy, apart from para-
sites and disease, and they can
usually protect themselves
against these predators by form-
ing a circle with the cows and
calves on the inside and the
bulls on the periphery. But this
strategy proved disastrous when
man and his rifle invaded the
Arctic. Excessive hunting has
greatly reduced the herds but
legislation has helped to pre-
serve remaining stocks.
The Musk -Ox, with its long
shaggy hair, humped shoulders
and broad, curved horns, is
quite unlike any other Cana-
dian mammal. It is one of the
largest; adult bulls weighing
from 500 to 900 pounds. The
single calf is born in April or
May and the severity of Arctic
weather at that time of year
makes infant mortality high.

Which Queen Included a Por-
poise with the Royal Treasures?
The male narwhal, a large
porpoise of the Arctic Ocean,
has a very long, straight, spir-
ally grooved tusk which pro-
jects forward from the left
side of the upper jaw. The larg-
est tusks are about eight feet
long, with a girth of about nine
inches at the base.
When the tusks first appear-
ed in Europe their true origin
was not generally known and
they were said to be the horns
of the mythical unicorn. In
August 1577, Sir Martin Frosh-
er's seamen found a "unicorn's
horn" five feet 10 inches long
in Frobisher Bay, Baffin Island.
It was given to Elizabeth I, who
put it among her treasures at
Windsor. Charles I paid a
great price for another.
* * *
Do Yesses Make Good Bait?
The early settlement of New-
foundland and the isolation of
small communities for many
generations has fostered the
development of different local
dialects, yet traces of British
dialects of the very early per-
iod remain common to many of
them.
Examples are: angishore: a
weak miserable person; bautom
a ball of wool or yarn; bavin:
a brushwood faggot used for
kindling; dean: a valley; droke:
a narrow lane; clever: strong
and healthy; nish: tender, deli-
cate or sore; proud: an inflam-
ed finger; rote, roar of the sea;
siehe: a small brook; yesses:
earthworms.
