As Lucy WO4 deposited in .her chair at the -dining-Mom- table and
titraed in to the latter her eye was caught by a black patch just at
the We of .00*P3:1rePf. „ •
It looked like a Olga cloth crumpled up. She blinked her eyes and
looked again! The shape of it was like a black sqpirrel flattened out.
and this is jtist what it was! He kept perfectly still so long that it was,
deceiving, But then, he suddenly gathered himself, flipped his tail
and scolded. Lucy looked to the ground ' and saw '"Mister" the
Galbraith's .little black and white fox terrier was. coming away from
the garbage pit, He never fails to ipok there on every visit to. Bayfleld
although Oarl is careful to burn any Oboes,. etc„ in the incinerator
still there is always the chance of. forbidden foodl
Lucy told Carl of the inCident and .he..informed her that black
squirrels are very curious, And so this one was peeking over the edge
of the barn roof, spying on the .dog At a safe diStanee.
At the rate the black .squirrela have been burying .nuts all fall at
"The Hut" it portends a cold winter. And if it isn't we hope' the
squirrels will find those nuts or we may have to change the name of
the property to Walnut :Grove,
On several occasions this autumn, Carl has watched squirrels
burying nuts in the ground pear the house, Each time he marked the
spot with his eye went out and tramped about trying, to find the
nuts. But Mr,. Black Squirrel is an expert at camouflage. One
couldn't even see a spot in the grass where he had been digging.
There -seem to be a number of birds about yet. One - day Carl
identified a female Scarlet Tanger in the
to On November 14, he was surprised to see the white birch tree on
the lawn literally crawling with small birds busily picking the seeds
and twittering their pleasure. He 'commenced to count, them and
estimated there would be about 200; When he opened the.dpor, they
flew sway. Later in the day a smaller flock came, and he managed to
focus his glasses in, the sunroorn and identified them as lied Folls.
- Red Polls are small stubby-billed finches 5-5% inches; little
streaked gray-brown birds that may be known by a bright red cap on
the 'forehead and a black chin; with buff wing hors. Males are pink
breasted. • •
They nest in the Arctic and sub-Arctic building in low trees and
shrubs, in sedge tussocks or in rock crevices. It is woven of grasses
and twigs, warmly lined with cottony plant down, feathers and
sometimes hair or fur. Eggs,. usually'5 or 6 are blue dotted or spotted
with reddish brown and are incubated in 10 or 11 days by the
,female, the male feeding her inSects during this period.
They winter irregularly in southern Canada and northern United
States, sometimes going as far south as the Carolinas and California.
Like Wind blown leaves they- sweep over snowy fields to alder
trees. They flutter in its seed laden branches and glean the fallen
seeds below. They prefer open fields with weedy edges for feeding..
Their favourite food is alder and birch seeds.
In flight their call is a metalic "chut,chut, shut."
So while they might winter in this district or farther south in
Ontario this year, one may not see any next year.

Warner and Paul West.
Following the nominations,
Brigadier F. A. Clift assumed
the chair at the request of the
large number present; and
invited the nominees to say a
few words.

important projects undertaken
by the outgoing council but not
yet completed.

the example of the outgoing

Don Warner thanked his
sponsors and said that he would
be pleased to serve.
Councillor Merner spoke next
and withdrew his name. He

the county school board (at
present this area is represented
by two residents of the Seaforth
area).
Councillor Baker was not
present but had already made
arrangements to qualify.

items which had been started
while he was reeve.

to stand the other four nominees
are in by acclamation.
Reports on their work were
given 'by the outgoing reeve and
councillors. Mr. McFadden paid
