V. , Workman, Of Northside United Church, Speaks At School Literary Society. NEW ORDER MEANS CHANCE FOR ALL At the regular meeting of the Strat- ford Normal School Literary Society, held on Friday afternoon, Rev. H. V. Workman, miniater of Northside Unit- ed Church; Seaforth, and father of one of this year's Normal class, was the guest apeaker. Mr. Workman referred very happily to his year at Normal School in Ham- ilton, when: the late Dr., Silcox was a master there, for part` of the term, leaving to come to Stratford Normal, He felt that he had received more in that year than in any other year of bis school life. "You are at a stage in life tremend- ously important, - probably more im- portant than ever "in the history of our 'country," the sneaker said. "We, who have the traditions of the United Nations have cherished freedom. We have talked democracy but we have never lived it to 'the full. In the New Order, according to men's ithinking, the average person is going tohave a chance, is going to mean much more in the order of society, as democracy becomes a;der, democracy than we have ever' known." He stressed the fact that the generation of pupils whom the students will have the priv- ilege to educate will see this new or- der when it comes into being and that the direction they will give to these boys and girls will enable them to become students so that we will realize in time the meaning of that word "education." Only when a per- son ds mature is he educated, or un- educated, the speaker said. "I wish you , well and trust that in a few months you will go • for't'h' from this place smiling, ready to meet the pup- ils in the schools waiting for you. We have a . great chance to make them good citizens," Mr.' Workman said in closing. Don Lawless' ,expressed the pleasure of the students in having Mr. 'Work- man with them and thanked him for his splendid talk. The students were also pleased to. have Mrs. Workman as their guest for the afternoon.

Broley, Tampa's "eagle man," had his closest. escape in, all' his ' years of bird -banding the other day. He nearly fell from a -40 -foot -high eagle nest near Punta Gorda as a half-grown eagle attacked him. - He still bears scars on his head and left hand where the young bird sank talons. "It was my awn fault," Broley said. "I've learned how to handle the birds without injury to them or me,. but this time I was• a title too confident. "Before . I knew it, the eagle had labbed`its talon clear through .sire flesh of my hand. 1 tried to pull it out with the pliers, and I had no idea an eagle could be •so. strong. I couldn't pull it out. "The pain was so ,great and I was working desperately so that I care- lessly lowered my bead. In a flash the eagle had grabbed my head with his other talons. ' One sank into my nose and the others cut into my ahead. "The 'talons didn't sink deep in my head though, as the skull stopped them, and I was able to pull ,the bind off. How the talon got out of .my hard then, I'll never know. It just came ,out." . Although weak and in great pain, Broley went ahead and held .the bins down while 'the put the aluminum Au- dubon band around the eagle's leg. After climbing down . his rope lad- rer; Broley rested fora half-hour be- fore attempting to return. He ear ies a first aid kit with him, so was able to treat his own wounds. Broley found 37 new eagle nests along the Florida West Coast this year, but found that 18 others had beet lost because of timbering and, forest fires. - He found one eaglet that had been attacked apparently by a wildcat, from clawmarks on the tree. He left the bird in the nest however, as it 'seem-' ed to be getting along all right, and would learn to use one leg as well as if it 'had two. In the last month he has banded 94 young eaglets, and stili plans an- other trip .into the field before return- ing to Toronto, Canada, his summer home. Broley has s•peeializefd in banding eagles because little is' known about their migratory • habits. Although in his sixties, be climbs 50 and 60 -foot trees with agility to find the huge eagle ' nest's. "I found one nest this season that shows the eagles are saving scrap too," be said.
