Many Birds Spend Winter In Canada O.bservationa H ave Made on 111 Kinds Never Fly South While it is true that the majority of Canadian wildfowl and feathered songsters fly across the border ev- ery autumn to winter somewhere south of the Ilemini011, investiga- tion shows that malty birds remain in Canada during the season'of ice and snoW. Counts made by expr•rieneetl vol- unteer observers last Christmas at fourteen Canadian centres, scatter- ed from NOVA Scotia to British Col - arable, reeordbd 36,000 birds of 111 different kinds. While these obser- vations provide a fair sample of the winter bird population for analysis, they represent only a small frac- tion he most f the total ,tabundant .birctlif cin inthe in winter is found along the coast of British Columbia, the southern coasts of .the Maritime Provinces, and in southern Ontario. The largest single report thisttwill- ` zahere more t r came from Hamilton, ibirltwere noted.. Because the :I.t)40 Christmas per.

Been Who Trend "To -day hi House De. signing is -Toward Placing Kitchen and Garage at Front of House -- Living Quarters at Rear A fanily builds or buys a Movie not just for today but for the fu' tore, so in designing or selecting a home families will benefit by con- sidering architectural trends, the Federal Housing Administration suggests. YARD AT REAR There is a growing movement today to place garage, kitchen and service facilities at the front of the house and to move living quar- ters to the rear. Houses are being moved forward on the lot, allowing greater use of the yard as addi- tional living space. The uniform building line is being eliminated, and houses are being placed so .that each home will be separated as widely as possible from the neighboring dwellings. Improvements in the design of so-called "modern" houses, new materials, and new methods of building are helping to broaden the acceptance of modern styles of ar- chitecture. 0 HAVE {YOU .HEARD' 114 L, A.

"I am assured it is true, but pass it on to you without comment," he gaid, "One of the local big- wigs, returning after a couple oweeks' absence, learned that a certain old man in the village had lost his wife, and went off to pay at visit of condolence.

Many people wonder why the date of Easter should chane year by year, while Christmas is a fix- ed ixed holiday. The reason• is that the Crucifixion took place at the time of the Jewish Passover, which, due to peculiarities of the Jewish cal- endar, is a moveable feast. The Christian Church therefore decided that the Easter festival should co- incide with the Jewish Passover. Easter can toile any day from March 22 to April 25, a range of five, weeks, FIXED BY THE MOON ,The Method of fixing Easter is cmplicated, and would take too long to explain here. Easter Day is the first Sunday after the full moon which happens either upon or next after the spring equinox. if the fuli•nioon'happens on a Sun- day, Easter Day is the Sunday after. Owing to the imperfections of our calendar, the spring equinox for fixing Easter is, curiously, a calculated date, and not the actual spring equinox.
