Wings Tiled Like Roofs.
It your fingers touch the wing of a
moth or butterfly, soft dust Is left an
them, and a bald patch Appears on the
Insect's wing.
This dust, when examined under a
microscope, is found to consist of
thousands of tiny scales. These scales
give the color to the butterfly's wing,
which without them is as transparent
Eta that of a wasp or a bluebottle,
They are laid on the wing in much
the same way as the slates of a root.
But In spite of their exquisite Shape
and coloring, they are so tiny that the
scales on the wings of a single butter-
fly would outnumber all the slates on
the roofs Of the houses of a good-sized

Modern University Service.
In his inaugural address as Chan,,
- cellor of McGill University, President
E. W. Beatty of the C-P,R. said thati
the niodern 'university intist issue
from within its wall's and serve the
People of both urban and rural Coin-
manities. "If," he said, ,the moun-
tain will not come to Mahornet, then
MA1101not must go to the mountain.01
Briefly and less iigurative.17 Stated,
this Y eans' that unlve*rsities must
serve their constituencies by means of
extension work. This is the type of
work that Ontario's provincial uni.
versity has been doing, with magnifl-4
cent results, for some time. Apara,
altogether from the regular cour8es,,
the University of Toronto is giving
during the present session sorrierthirg
of hiiber education to 275 teachers,
nearly 600 farmers, 128 journalists,
over 800 industrial laborers, more
than 80 women who are taking house-
hold science, anpreximately 2,000 of
the general public in the Smaller
urban centres for whom single ex-
-tension lectures are arranged. and one
or two hundred who Study in Special
tutorial classes. With a continuance
of the present development of this
" outside work" so-called, the provin-
cial university will soon be reaching
many thousands more beyond its walls
than it can accommodate within them.
And it is by this Comparatively now
form of service, in addition to the
traditional teaching and research, -that
the provincial university really fulfils
its duty to the citizens of Ontaric,
whose property it is.
A Sealskin Church.
The world's queerest church was
discovered not long ago by -a mis-
slonary In the Aretw. It Stands an
Blacklead island, Cumberland Sound,
and Is con3tructed entirely of seal
skins.
Wood and other building material
not being available, the missionwry re.
abonsible for Its erection sewed the
Skins together and stretched them
over whalebone "girders."
Another Eskimo missionary built a
church of snow, with seats, altar, and
pulpit complete. He stated that his
snow -built edifice was warmer than
most churches lit had visited in. warm.
er climates.
Among cathedrals, probably the
most curious Is to be found In Ugau-
da. Viewed from a distance, it looks
like a giant haystack, but at clos6
qUarters it Is seen to be built of grass
and mud. It seats four thcuGand per-
sons.
