A new sort ,of bird -ran
Brom October 1921
Away back in1859, Charles,
Darwin shocked the world by -sug-
gesting
sug-gesting that man descended from an
ape -like animal, "probably arboreal"
- that is dwelling in trees like the
monkeys and squirrels.
If there is truth in that much -
'disputed Darwinian" theory, it would.
seem that man has not yet lost the
primitive instinct to sleep in a tree
when no ,better shelter and place of
safety is available. s. •
We are lead to this reflection by
a story which comes from out near
Whitechurch. A couple of weeks
ago a stranger arrived in that
vicinity, who, instead of seeking
accommodation in the ordinary
way, took to sleeping in a tree. The
cold evenings were spent by a fire
which he kindled near the root of
his arboreal home. The ' story is
quitetrue, as the beg, or -nest, is
still to be seenin the tree,- about
twenty feet from the ground.
^A number v of men from the
vicinity called on the .stranger one
day, and discovered that he was a
foreigner, unable to speak English
intelligibly. He pronounced the
words Montreal and Detroit, but
that seemed to be about the limit of
his command of the English lan-
guage. His visitors concluded that
he " had ' been in Montreal, that he
had relatives in Detroit, and 'that he
was tramping on his way thither; -
that his feet had become sore and
that he had stopped for 'a few days'
rest. Unacquainted with the country
and unable to make himself
understood, he had decided to camp.

Mr. John Purvis accepts - Mr.
John Purvis, the widely -known
auctioneer and fanner of Holyrood,
has decided to try his luck in the
political game, and has accepted the
Liberal -Conservative Party
nomination for South Bruce. This
makes it certain that this end of
Bruce will have a three -cornered
contest, as there is no chance of
either Mr. Truax, Liberal, or Mr,
Findlay, UFO, retiring. The third
man coming into the field creates a
peculiar situation, and there can be
nothing but guess work as to which
shall represent the riding in the next
parliaments All three have: their
strong points as candidates.
