Huron County is third Wings make nights hum On® VsocA Itill® ifUff@VI by Bob Tqcntoo . There's no mistaking a July evening. The sun so often sets in 4 blaze of red and heat waves dance over the highways and the rocky places. In that wondrous hush of twilight. you can hear the zoom of a night hawk's wings as it plunges after the millions cif insects in theair. In fact. the summer night hums with the sounds of many different wings. I was brought up in the Kawartha Lakes district and nothing brings back childhood memories as vividly as the crazy cry of a loon on a lonely lake. The Algonquin Indians. 'think. called it the Month When the Birds Cast Their Feathers. My grandfather. sitting and puffing on his pipe. said a July evening was so hot even the birds were drained of energy because they were too tired to sing after the heat of the day. learned later in life that birds sing less in July because the mating season and the nesting season is Over. You hear them singing in the morning and sometimes throughout the day but they da seem quieter in the evening Maybe it is because they are settling to sleep and they do not want ' predators to find their young ones. Certainly. the fine. rich. songs of May and June are gone. It is said that a cricket chirping in -a house is a sign of good fortune. We have one this slimmer living right outside our bedroom window alfd he is as noisy as a guninea hen. I am not a naturalist but I recalaeading somewhere that only the male crickets chirp. Old Johnson Paudash, an Indian chief from back home. said you could tell the temperature from a cricket's song. "Count the number of chirps per minute. subtract 40. divide the result by four. add 50 and the result will be the , SHIP YOUR CATTLE THE CO-OP WAY UMW CO-OPERATIVES Of ONTARIO ONTARIO moor YARDS, (414) 77-1143 A 4****** YOUR U.C.O.

I suggested it was not worth thc trouble: it would be easier to use a thermometer. He always answered "that he never carried one with him. Try it sometime. It does work and it is fun to quietly sit and count a cricket's chirps on a warm summer evening. Too many people do not take the time to sit and listen to the sounds of a summer night. We are too busy with our big and small problems. our trials and troubles and tribulations. Heaven knows. the world is in a mess. The universe. whether Pierre Elliott Trudeau knows it or not. is not unfolding as it should. As this is written. the Canadian dollar is lower than at any other timc in history. The Israelis are bombing Lebanon. The lraquis are pounding the Iranians. The war goes on in MorOCCO. in Cambodia, in Chad. in Somolia. in El Salvador. I know of no other odour so pleasing than that of new•mown hay! It gives the air a tang which gets into your blood and sets YOU to chanting poetry. My dad loved theland. I remember him placing his hand on the grass with his fingers surrounding that beautiful nuisance. a buttercup, and saying' "Everything under my hand is a miracle." It seems to me that everything of a summer's eve is a miracle. The glorious sunsets, the trees blackened on the horizon behind the sun. The sweet fields of grain. The hum and buzz of nightbirds and insects. There is nothing but God out there on a warm summer night. Is your kitchen ready for a face lift ?
