R. B. Warren, B.A. B.D. The Conquest of Canaan Joshua 1:1-7; 6: 1.5, 20. Memory Selection: As I was with Moses, so I will be with thee, - Joshua 1: 5, 6. Joshua and Caleb were tine only adults who left Egypt and were privileged to enter Canaan. Jo- shua successfully led Israel in its first encounter with the Amalekites while Aaron and Hur were the, two faithful spies, who recommend- ed that Israel go up and possess the land, He became a minister to Moses. On the death of Moses he became the servant of the LORD and assumed the leadership of Is- rael. When they crossed the Jordan they carte, to the walled fortress of Jericho. The manner in which the city was taken was unique. God, as the efficient cause, was Magnified before all men. His ark and his ministers, by their prominence, at the head of the procession, were especially honored in the eyes of Israelite and Canaanite, The course of proceeding so unnmilitary and ap- parently absurd was a severe test of the faith of Israelites in Je- hovah, But the walls fell when the people had made their thirteenth trip around the city and had shout- ed and the priests had blown their trumpets. The incident encouraged the Israelites and struck terror to the hearts of the Canaanites. The next encounter ended in de- feat. Covetous Achan had appro- priated an accursed garment and and stolen gold and silver that was to have been given to God. Thirty- six men were !tilled. The wicked one was discovered and he; his, family and his property destroyed. Among the events of special in- terest are the deceit of the Gideon- ites, and the sun and moon standing still as Joshua continued the battle. Truly Joshua proved God's promise, "As I was with Moses, so 1 will be with thee," to be true. God buries His workmen but carries on His work, Ile never wearies! How comforting to realize that the saute God is ours today. 9. Narrow Inlet 10. Peculiar 11. Tiny 17. Salad dressing 19. Asterisk . 21. Bangs 22. I3llnd fear 23. Son of Seth 24. Picture puzzle 26.

' HRONICLES %INGERFARM Gwendoltne l Clarke It is grand to have all kinds of electrical conveniences - and of course once you get used to therm you wouldn't want to be without therm, But one thing is certain - the more things you have to work with the more things there are to go wrong. Right now I could write a'pretty good story on "The In- convenience of Conveniences." Just about everything that could go wrong has gone wrong around here during the last few weeks. And trying to get anything fixed is a nightmare, * * * First of all the radio went dead. I took it downtown. "Okay," said the radio fellow, "leave it here - we'll look after it in a day or two•" * * * "A day or twol" I repeated, "for goodness' sake, it won't take more than ten minutes to put in a new tube! I am sure that's all that is wrong with it. I know by the way the radio acted." My indignation really worked. In fifteen minutes I was out of the store with the radio under my arum all fixed up and ready to go. * * * Next on the list of casualities was a warming pad, But that could- n't be fixed and since it has be- come a necessity around here there was nothing for it but to buy a new one, • * e• * Then something happened to our outside lights, The three-way switch that operates the pole light would n't work. Neither would the light over the front door. And it wasn't a burnt out bulb in either case. It was ten days before we could get a than in to fix them -about half an hour's work, While the elec- trician' was here I got him to look at our electric kettle -the plug used to get so hot we could smell the rubber, I -Ie finally put on a new Plug after discovering the old one had' almost burnt through from the inside, With a solid ,rubber plug it is impossible to tell what is happening, 1 ant telling you this as a warning . no, one can be too careful with electrical appli- ances. But 1 wonder how many fires have been startedby using some- thing that needed fixing -but which nobody had time to fix. There is some talk these days of unemploy- ment -but there seems no sign of it when anyone wants a iob done, * * * We thought we had conte to the end of our :"fixing" troubles and then tonight my typewriter started acting up -so things don't have to he ale; trifled to give trouble, This time 1 didn't wait for a mechanic. I turned the typewriter upside down, watched to see ,which levers did what, found Where they were sticking and then brushed them lightly with oil, That's all and now it works. * * * Oh, but I mustn't forget to tell you about the clock! We have a very nice little 8 -day travelling clock that was given us as a wed- ding present, Last week it got tired and would go only for about five minutes at a time, Since it would run that length of time I concluded there was nothing broken and that maybe it might be particles of dust stopping the . delicate mechanism, So I set the clock on a chair, open- ed up the back, and blew into it with the vacuum tube -standing a little distance away so as to re- duce the , air current. And the clock has been ticking merrily ever since, *** Conte to think of it, 'most of our worries occurred last week -elec- tion week -maybe that accounts for all the trouble. Certainly the air was charged enough to upset the balance of any' intricate contrap- tion, I'll leave it at that! . * * * One thing around here that works perfectly is an old-fashioned • octagon -shaped wooden mouse trap in which I have caught 14 moose mice during the last week. And still they conte. I believe they come in from the field as fast as I ' catch them in the house, Joe is gtmitc ready to cat the mice once I have caught tltctn but he would much rather hunt them in the field than sit waiting for then to come out of hiding in the pantry. And • Honey goes mouse -hunting too.

On the other hand, poorly , fitted, improper footwear can so deform children's feet that they are sure to know the misery of foot troubles as adults. If keeping up with growing feet cuts holes in • your budget, skimp on other items of clothing. Noth- ing does more to spoil the foot than ill-fitting shoes. Even with the right fit, a young child may grow out of a size in a month. Until the age of fifteen, the average child grows out of a shoe size in anywhere from one to six .months. Shoes should be about three- quarters of an inch longer than the longest toe, leather should hug at heels. To be sure shoe is wide enough,. pinch leather across, toes. If it won't lift, shoe is narrow. Don't let a child wear liand-nie- down hoes (even if they're hardly worn), unless you are sure the shoes meet the above requirements. This is a must, Low-cut, laced oxfords arc still the best -in looks and in construction, If you choose shoes with straps, the straps should be placed so they give the same kind of support around the instep that lacing would, RELIEVE' COUGHS and COLDS THIS SIMPLI, ' IFFICTIVI WAY • Warm Eeleetrk 011 • Rub well Into chest and throat • Cover with warm flannel • Effective For children USED FOR 85 YEARS CHEST RUB with ISSUE 50 - 1951 Is Future Determined Before Birth? A woman baying a hat may spend an hour's agony of indeci- sion over which of several suits her, best. Yet a Fatalist would argue that all her anxiety is wasted; that her final selection is predestined even before she enters the hat shop! That's also the Mohammedan's belief. 'Whatever befalls hint, ,good or bad, he attributes to fate-Kis- nmet-against which he considers it useless to struggle. It makes hint a fearless soldier, but a lazy work- er, For he tights on the theory that if a bullet "has his name on it," it might just as well find hits a hero in the front rank as skulking in the rear. The sante argument holds in his daily life, Why slave and toil when his destiny is al- ready "in the bag"? If he is doom- ed to starve, then starve' he will writes Deret Barat in "Tit -Bits," Scientists have long scoffed at such notions, Yet they arc borne out remarkably from time to time by strange examples of "identical twins," whose lives have mysteri- ously followed an exactly similar course -although the individuals concerned may have been separated front birth, unaware even of each other's • existence. Edwin and Fred Nestor were identical twins, born in Nebraska but separated as babies, Unknown to each other, they lived exactly similar lives, Both married girls of the sante weight, coloring and height -and from the sante town. They both became fathers of sons at the sante age, and each followed the same career of electrical en- gineering, But perhaps the most astonishing and inexplicable factor of all , is that when ,the twins were finally re -united as grown men (and even their wives couldn't tell them apart) they each owned identical fox ter- rier pets -named Trixicl One day a seventy -year-old car- penter was admitted to a Massa- chusetts hospital with stomach trouble, later diagnosed as a dread disease. The surgeons noticed, in- cidentally, that the old fellow's nose had been broken at some time in his life and that he had been operated on unsuccessfully for hernia, Imagine their amazement, there- fore, when another carpenter, sev- enty years old, also with signs of a broken nose and an unsuccess- ful hernia operation, was admitted to the hospital. He was an identical twin of the first patient; and he had precisely the same symptoms of disease. Do examples like these bear out the "what is to be will be" argu- ment? When two men, living separ- ate individual lives, follotiv such exactly similar paths front cradle to grave, one is led seriously to consider that perhaps all our des- tinies are determined at birth. It is, of course, only with identical twins that this theory can be tested. Nor must identical twins be con- fused with ordinary twins. They are far rarer, virtually "soul -mates" since they are born of the same germ cell which has divided, just as a single match might split, leav- ing two matches of identical wood. So are the very bodies and minds of identical twins of the same grain, This would account for the bond of- sympathy that exists between them, It explains why identical twins think and feel alike, have the same hopes and desires. It's the answer to tltc strange tele- pathy that ,exists between pretty - twin American singing sister's Mar- ian and Mary Wild, who kept se- parate diaries . , , until one day they compared then and discovered that what they had written corres- ponded almost word for word.

And soon, they tell us, the automatic long-distance dialing being tested -jn Englewood will be extended to most of North America. We've often been grateful for the modern telephone system, es- pecially when living where writing a note often seethed easier -and quicker -- than telephoning.

If she isn't there, will it call its back in 20 minutes? And what if we call the wrong number in San Francisco? Can it straighten that out and make us feel it really wasn't our fault?

Williamson of Loy- ola University. The compounds are sulphur amino acids, which occur in the proteins of eggs, milk, wheat, corn and some other foods. The "healing index" — a number which expresses the rate of healing as measured in Dr. \Villiamson's re- search—is much greater on high than on low -protein diets in ex- perimental animals. The high -pro- tein diet gives this higher index because more sulphur amino acid is available for building new tissue. In Denmark ornithologist Holger Poulsen announced that birds do not sing from happiness or mating impulses but through a "hormonal process activated by light," Suez Canal—"Dream Of The Centuries" Changed The Map Of. The World Kipling may be responsible for the popular notion that the Suez Canal Is the dividing line between East and West. As a matter of fact, the Moslem World extends far out from both sides of the canal and the great Afrasian desert sweeps on from Egypt to the Ara- bian peninsula and to Central Asia. In the compact little world of the Greeks, Egypt was a part of Asia and ail the desert to the west was Libya, Africa only came in with the Romans, The boundary between Asia and Africa, in spite of th`e canal, has remained as insignificant as the boundary between Europe and Asia, where the low Ural Mountains cut across but do not alter the Eurasian plain, and the great Slav power has long been in undisputed control of all the lands on both sides of the chain of hills, * * Yet the opening of the Suez Canal eighty-two years ago this month had a strong appeal to the imagination of Europeans. The severing of the continents of Asia and Africa at Suez, like the later and greater splitting of North and South America at Panama, was 'a triumph of man over a hostile en- vironment. The event was fittingly celebrated. As it was a French en- terprise, Empress Eugenie headed the list of distinguished guests, The Ernperor of Austria cane, the Crown Prince of Prussia; Grand Duke Michael of Russia, Prince Henry of the Netherlands and hun- dreds of less exalted persons. Khe- dive Ismail of Egypt paid the ex- pense of the guests from and back to Europe and all the bills for the stay in Egypt, When he heard that Empress Eugenie would like to visit the pyramids of Giza while she was in Egypt, he set ten thousand peasants to work to build a road seven miles long, from Cairo to the pyramids. The Suez celebration on this lavish scale hastened the bankruptcy of the Khedive, the sale of his shares in the canal and the eventual occupation of Egypt by the British says a writer in The New York Tittles, * * * Thc British, who are now re- solved to defend the canal 'at any cost, were not interested when the canal 'was first proposed, Lord Palmerston, 'the Foreign Secretary, thinking of Napoleon's Egyptian ad- venture of .1798,1ooked upon the daring enterpr'ise:as'another French scheme to get -:.a.., bold on Egypt. He had a strange idea, • too, that use of the canal might disturb established trade relations. So the British Government declined the shares offered to it and even brought the work on the canal tri A standstill in 1864 by a protest to the Sutlan in Constantinople against the Khedive's use of forced labor for the benefit of a foreign company, Forced labor was stop— ped—the Khedive paying the com- pany £3,000,000 for this breach of co. ract—and the work was fin- is' I with the help of machinery. In the end Egypt had put up nearly half the cost of the canal. * * * The importance of the canal to the British appeared on the open- ing day—Nov. 17, 1869. The first ship to pay the tolls showed the British flag. Soon afterward three- -quarters of the trade going through the canal was British. The story of how another British Government reversed the policy of Lord Pal- merston and acquired a big stake in the .canal has been told again in a new life of Benjamin Disraeli by Hesketh Pearson. "Dizzy" bor- rowed £4,000,000 on his own re- sponsibility to clinch the deal for the Khedive's share and let Parlia- ment approve the purchase later. It was less extra -constitutional than another famous canal acquisition -- the Panama Canal case — where President Theodore Roosevelt said he "took" the Canal Zone and let Congress argue about it afterward. * * * ' The Suez Canal concession Is for ninety-nine years. So on, Nov. 17, 1968, the Egyptians can take over the property from the French - British company. The next seven- teen years should allow time enough to provide for the continued safe operation of this vital link in the world trade routes. The canal, which was the dream of centuries, will not be allowed to disappear in the sands of the desert and ships will not have to resort to the long voyage around the Cape of Africa. Yet it was the discovery of the sea route to India nearly five hundred years ago that made the building of the canal inevitable, The old navigators changed the map of the world and prepared the way for the canal builders. Vasco da Gama is the man we really have to thank for the Suez Canal and Ferdinand Magellan for the great canal at Panama.

Plants Grow Better Under Artificial Light By DOUGLAS LARSEN In a brilliantly lighted basement roost of the Department of Agri- culture's research laboratories at Beltsville, scientists are getting clo- ser to the elusive secret of life itself in plants. For the first time in the history of agricultural research they arc able to measure the exact effect which light has on plant 'cell growth. Past research, and work in the development •of better vari- eties of vegetables and flowers, up to now, has been hampered because natural light can never he accur- ately controlled. Although the roon1 has only been in operation a few montlat it has already been used to Ire p start development of a brand new vari- ety 'of disease -resistant potato seed, 1n fact, use of the room for tle- -veloping new t•arietics of all kinds of seeds now appears to be one of its most valuable by-products, according to Harry A. Borthwick and Marion W. Parker, the two plant scientists in charge of the project. It also could be a factor in re- volutionizing the world's food pro- duction if it helps in providing the answers about plants which 13orth- w'ck and Parker arc seeking. Thc room is 20 feet long, 10 feet wide and 71/2 feet high. Its vital feature, the lighting equipment, was developed and installed by General Electric engineers. Eighty-eight "slintlinc" fluorescent lamps, sup - .demented with 24 60 -watt incandes- cent lamps, provide the illumination. The lamps are the sante as those used in your home. The fluorescent and incandescent lamps provide all the light nour- ishment with none of the harmful elements of sunlight—which plants need for •growing. They give an illtunination level of over 2,000 foot candles, which is more than 40 times the level prevailing in modern stores and offices. The thing that makes the Belts- ville installation unique is a simple method of stepping up current cycle - for the lamps, plus an automatic means of keeping the light intensity continually fixed,' Research being done in the con- trolled environment room by Borth- wick and 'Parker will supplement work of a similar, highly practical nature already under way, Theirs is basic research aimed at answer- ing all the questions of the effect of light on plant life, The other work is aimed at specific problems in the• field. In Hawaii, for instance, tests are under way to determine whether light can be used to increase the sugar crop there. It is believed that if a cane field can be lighted for a short •time during the night it will keep the cane from forming a flower at the end, at which stage it ceases to grow sugar in the stalk, Finding out just- exactly how much light a cane field needs, and at what time of the night, could result in much bigger sugar crops. The same information has a similar application to other crops. 1t is .possible, through artificial lighting, to make many areas of the world with short days far more productive. The great variety of weather and clay -length probably lessens the need for widespread artificial lighting to increase food production. lHol'ever, in Florida, as one small example, artificial light used at night could be used to help grow onions shy altering the day - night cycle. There is a wide field for practi- cal use of light research in flower growing, Poinsettias, for instance, need a great deal of darkness, and their blooming time is difficult to control by ordinary growing means. With artificial light, however, their blooming can be controlled exactly. In the development of new seeds of all kinds the controlled envir- onment room will have its most practical application, in addition to its use as a tool in basic agriculture research, When the technique of new seed production in the room is more fully developed, it will be possible to produce new varieties of all kinds of seeds which can be tailored for use in any part of the entire world, regardless of what light conditions might exist,- there. xistthere. However, if the room is able to help Borthwick and Parker achieve their ultimate goal, the discovery of the secret of plant life, it is impossible to predict just what tre- mendous benefits to civilization will result. By The Light of the incandescent lamps, this Agriculture Depart- ment research worker tends some test plants. Under artificial light, the vegela'ion sometim ss does better than under sunlight.

So by measuring points of pro- gress along a hair at the time of the arsenic victim's death, scien- tists can easily prove not only that • arsenic was used, but can also say at what time the doses were given. The atom thus provides a diary of a murder and may help to deter- mine who committed it. Betrayed by Rays How is it done? The suspect hair is first exposed to neutrons (atomic particles) in an atomic pile. Some of the slow-moving neutrons are "captured" ' by the arsenic atoms. In doing this the ordinary arsenic atoms become changed into a new form (an isotope) of arsenic, known as "As. 76," This new form is radioactive and shoots out rays like radium which can be measured with a Geiger counter, it is re- vealed, Even less than one part per mil- lion of arsenic can now be easily detected, It is possible to dis- tinguish arsenic from other ele- ments because various elements differ in the ease with which they catch neutrons and -in the rays they shoot out. Unfortunately, this new method cannot he used to measure arsenic in the blood. Why? Because blood always contains sodium, which picks up the neutrons as easily as arsenic. An ingenious color scheme de- signed to detect arsenic poisoning immediately was put forward by a French chemist, M. Grinlaud, more • than a century ago. He proposed that all commodities containing arsenic should be treated before sale with a mixture of sulphate of iron and cyanure of potash. What—No Tarpaulin?—Lt's never been made clear whether the "Saturday bath" is a gag or a custom In this country. The Satur- day mud -bath, however, seems to be a fairly regular ritual during the football season. Here, an unidentified gridder'visits the water bucket—notfor a drink, but to clean the mud off his hands- -during a game. He made -••over twenty experi- merits with ordinary foodstuffs. He found that arsenic, so treated, gave a green bronze colour to hot meat soups, an opal color to hot or cold milk, a vilet color to red wine, a deep blue •to brcadstuffs, a dirty yellow to coffee—and so on through the whole gamut of everyday foods, He claimed that his scheme was foolproof against arsenical poison- ing, accidental or crincinal •Nobody, he urged, would eat blue bread or drink violet wine, or eat bronze meat. But for some unstated reason, the French government never put Gri- nsaud's plan into operation. He Revolutionized The Fighting Game Students of the fistic are gener- ally regard "Gentleman" Jim Cor- bett as the man responsible for boxing as we know it today. He introduced the straight left, the art of feinting, parrying and counter - punching, all of which enabled him to win a surprising victory over • John L. Sullivan, But nearly a -hundred and thirty years earlier there was born in London's east - end, Daniel Men- doza, who was destined to be the first Jew to take up fisticuffs and the man who changed the game from sheer brutality to a skilful sport. One of a large fancily, he was forced to leave school at thirteen • and became a shop assistant • until he took to the ring professionally. Nevertheless, he was sufficiently knowledgeable to write "The Art of Boxing" which was published in • '1787, when Daniel was twenty- four. It was said of hint that no pugi- list ever stopped with greater neat- ness, hit oftener or put in his blows quicker. Also, he was never at loss for wbrds and used the Press at every opportunity to stir up public interest in a forthcoming match. Royal. Backer When he was fifty-two he pub- lished his "Memoirs," an absorb- ing life story of the pitched ring. Recently republished, "The Mem- oirs of the Life of Daniel Mendo- za" are as interesting and exciting to read today as when they first appeared in 1815. Mendoza's Memoirs show con- clusively that he knew how to get (ore an High Hat - Korean 'Papa -San" above, who is un- dentifted, says he's waiting for armistice talks to successfully ind so that he can get back to Yis regular pattern of living. It s widely hoped that by that ime his beard will not have 3rown enough to make him look like "Papa -Santa." the most out of his chosen career, When he made a match he insisted on a stage being built in an en- closure to which admittance' was by ticket only -at half a guinea a time. His showtnanship attracted the attention of none other than the Prince of Wales, later George the Fourth, who became his backer; while he also claimed to have been sent for by the King himself, • George III, who walked and talked with him on the terraces at Wind- sor. Mendoza had about thirty pitched battles. But the most famous were the three with Richard Humphries, who was allowed to use the nick- name of "Gentleman," not so much because of his behavior in the ring, but by reason of the fact that he enjoyed the company of the gentry of the day. The pair ,started as friends and finished mortal enemies. One day when Dadiel was fighting a porter who had refused a tip because he thought it was too small, Hum- phries happened to be passing and offered to second Mendoza, He 'did this several times Mendoza's successes, however, aroused jealously, especially when he opened a school of boxing which proved as popular as the care con- ducted by his friend. The gulf widened when the Prince of Wales made a favorite of Daniel; and after a chance set-to between them at The Cock, Epping, there was no difficulty in arranging a match, Umpire's Betrayal This took place at Odillarn; in Hampshire on January 9th, 1788. Although Humphries was favorite, the Jews backed Mendoza heavily and he took with him two white pigeons to be released in the event of victory—and two black ones should he suffer defeat. Things were going well for the more scientific Mendoza when, dashing into strike Humphries who was defenceless in a corner, his blow was parried by one of his opponent's seconds. There was an appeal for a foul, but Mendoza's umpire disallowed it, This betrayal was philosophically accepted by Daniel, who writes in his "Memoirs": "The conduct of my umpire appeared very extraor- dinary at the time but I afterwards learnt he had laid money against me, consequently he could not be expected to be very willing to de- cide against himself." Black Pigeon A few rounds later Mendoza was thrown heavily, burt his groin— and had to retire. Humphries sent a note to his chief backer which read: "Sir I have done the Jew and am in good health"; While the whole of Houndsditch, Aldgate and Petticoat Lane was plunged into mourning by the arrival of a black pigeon which told them they had lost over £50,000. The unsatisfactory ending to the fight meant only one .thing—a re- turn match. This time. the scene moved to Stilton in Huntingdon and here Mendoza's superiority was most marked. He was too fast and too versatile for Humphries. The affair ended with Humph- ries falling without being struck and he thus forfeited the battle. But a third Meeting came off at Lancaster on September 29th, 1790. Tickets were quickly sold out and on the day fetched from £5 to £ 10. Again Mendoza proved to be master, and was acclaimed champ- ion of England. He became very wealthy, touring the country to give exhibitions of his skill, teach- ing the Noble Art to amateur gen- tlemen. The Road Downhill But he was moving Hi an expen- sive circle; he had a wife and six children and many sponging acquaintances. Although • he had announced that he would have no further pitched battles, lack of funds made him break this vow and after two winning fights against Bill Warr, he came a cropper against "Gentleman" John Jack - 5011. This time Daniel opposed a man more skilful than himself and suf- fered in consequence. Furthermore Jackson seized the Jew by his long hair and holding him down upper- cut him severely in the face, After this. Mendoza was glad to give in. Rapidly he went downhill. No longer champion, his friends for- sook him and he went to prison several times for debt. He was never downhearted and tried any- thing once in order to keep go- ing. At the age of seventy-three he died in extreme poverty at Horse Shoe Alley, Petticoat Lane, back among those of his race for whom he had fought so gallantly. MORE ABOUT THE BIBLE The Bible is inspired, That doesn't mean that every line of it is inspiring, Parts of it are not, It means that botlf God and each writer are true authors, The Ca- tholic ,Church explains inspiration as "a supernatural impulse • by which the IIoly Spirit has inspired and directed the sacred authors, and assisted them in their writing, so that they should preserve ac- curately, and wish to report faith- fully, and express with an infallible verity all that God directs them to write, and that only," The writers didn't find it easy to compose the books of the New or Old Testament. It was hard work. St, Matthew who wrote the first book in the New Testament, rewrote it several tittles. He had to keep in mind his audience—Jews who liad become •Christians. In so -doing, he stressed the point that Christ was the expected Messiah, And like all compositions his Gos- pel had to be put in some kind of order, So likewise slid the other authors have to work hard over their compositions. Copies were made of the original writings when they became worn from use. Naturally the copies had to be exact, The Christians would soon detect an essential change, •This is what we possess today— faithful copies of the books both of the New and Old Testament. But there is yet another point. Who is going to say what books are inspired? God must in some way inform us about the books of which He is also the author as well as the writer, And this is the work of His Church—"He who lis- tens to you, listens to ase." This is one of a series of messages by Father V. McGivney, Parish,Priest, St, Francis Parish, . Pickering, Ont. "Sea Tigers" The barracuda is believed to grow about ten feet, with a cigar - shaped body that is bluish or greenish above, with silvery sides. Its head was a long, undershot jaw filled with razor-sharp teeth, and its eyes are large, glassy and staring, - The fierce creature can tear off' a. man's hand or foot with one bite, and has been known to slash horses to death as they swam in shallow water. Itfany of the bathing trage- dies that have been blamed on man-eating sharks are now believ- ' ed to have been caused by barra- cudas. Natives of the West In- dies say .the shark is a coward and will swim away if a man falls overboard. Not so the barracuda, which will attack anything it sees moving in the water, Even a per- son walking ankle-deep along the shore may not be safe, they say, for the barracuda has been known to rush into inches -deep water to slash at a wader's foot. An early judgment on the barra- cuda was given by the Sieur de Rochefort, a French naturalist, in B of M PRESIDENT WARNS GROWTH OF INFLATION IS STILL POSSIBLE B. C.

Write Pelmo Park Perennial Gardens, Weston, Ont. 1665 in his "Natural History of the Antilles," He made this report: "Among the mriaters greedy and desirous of human flesh, the Be- cune (barracuda) is one of the most formidable." Modern ichthyol- ogists disagree about the man-eat- ing tastes of the "becune," however. They say he's just a lncan, nasty - tempered creature, so belligerent, or greedy, that he likes to attack anything that moves. The barracuda is a rather mor- ose, solitary fish. The big ones prefer to lurk in the green depths of coral reefs, from which they flash at thirty miles an hour to seize their prey. A favorite trick of this wily seafarer, when gorged, is to herd a school of small fish 'into shallow water, harry them into a tight group like a collie with a flock of sheep and then keep the frightened flock milling about until the urge to feast is strong again.' There are two schools of thought on the barracuda as a food fish. West Indians refuse to eat them Because of a centuries-old belief that the treat is poisonous. More venturesome people who have risk- ed an attack of ptomaine say a small barracuda is truly a delicious dish. It is generally agreed, how- ever, that the flesh of the big ones is coarse, oily and strong tasting, and that the creature is fit only for shark bait.
