P. R. NEVILLE, Registrar THE REASON WHY What is 'a totem pole'for?--Before people' had individual names i. the savages who lived in clans or tribes referred to ,thea nselves in the name of some natural object, usually an animal which they assumed as the name or emblem of the clan :or tribe. These names necrer applied to one in- dividual more than another, but only to the clan or tribe, so that everyone. in a tribe which had taken the wolf for its emblem was known as Wolf. Later' on. they blgan to distinguish individuals by' giving them additional names characteristic of the individu- al, such as Lonely Wolf, Growling Wolf or Cher names. The name, of this anim 1 was then the emblem of one tribe. They, therefore, placed thisemblem upon their bodies, their clothes, utensils, etc. Through this, these emblems also became at times idols of worship and so they erected poles upon which their emblems were engraved. The word totem is a North American Indian word meaning fam- ily token. The tribes called them- selves after animals from which they believed themselves descended. Where does a flower get its per- fume? --The perfume or smell of the flower comes from within the plant itself. The perfume arises from an oil which the plant makes, and just as • there are many kinds of flowers; so almost every flower has a different smell. Of course, flowers belonging to the same family or species are likely to develop different smells. The oils produced are what are known as the • volatile oils, which means flying oils, because, if ` extracted from the flower and placed in a bottle and the cork left out, they will vanish into the air. Without this quality we could not, , of; course, amen them at all. ' Man uses these oils to provide him- self with perfumes, but' the plant or flower has another purpose than this. The perfume is not made for man's use, but for the use of the plant it- self. , In the plant and flosyr.savorld the smell of the plant which' is in the flower is .a part of the scheme where- by plants reproduce themselves. Every plant in order tp reproduce itself must produce . a seed. The flowers are in most Gases the advance agent of the corning seed. Each flower produces within itself a little powder called the pollen, but as plants are like people -also male and femalie-they are dependent upon, each other for the production of a perfect seed. Some of the pollen from the male plant must be mixed with the pollen of the female plant before a perfect seed results. What are the sounds we hear in a shell ?-The sounds we hear, in the seashell are really air Waves or sounds made by air waves, because all sounds are produced by air waves. The reason you can hear these sounds in a seashell is because the shell is so constructed that it forms a ode The wooden sounding box. T e natural so part of a guitar, zither or .violin is a seunding box. They have the faculty of picking up sounds and making them stronger. We call thein reson- ators, because they make sounds re- sound. The construction' of a sea- shell>makes an almost •perfect reason- • ator. A perfect resonator will Hick up sounds which the human ear can- not hear at all and magnify them so that if you hold a resonator to the east you can hear sounds you- could nototherwise hear. tar trumpets for the deaf are built upon this principle. Sometimes when your with your ear `alone, think something is absolutely quiet, you can pick up a seashell and hear sounds in it. But the .seashell will magnify an sound that iaeaches it, P It would be possible, off nurse, to take a seashell' to a place where it would be absolutely quiet and then there would be no sounds. There are such places, but very few of them. A room can be built which is absolutely soundproof. The sounds we hear when we hold a seashell to the ear are not really the sound of the sea waves. We have come to imagine that they are be- cause they sound like the waves of the sea, and knowledge that the shell originally came from the sea helps us to this conclusion very easily, ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN Mrs. Elizabeth Holloway is the champion chess player in England.
