Lucy (7,,40.,/3, Woods). "Mr!' answered the doorbell "The- Hut" about seven o'clockon Saturday evening, Then he clashed in for Peter- son's Field Guide to the Birds, saying that two boys were outside with a swan, "Who ...are -they?." 'Qet. their navies, called ."Mrs.". That job. of reporting was a bit out of "Mr's." line, so. he, said, "I'll .ask them in to see you," That 'really pleased -."Mr!%" because she .does like to see people—to say nothing of her tongue-wagging proclivities I In a moment "Mr." was back for a tape line. a whistling swan," he announced, And when the ushered +the two boys in, he said; "It's wing span is 6'S" ,from tip to tip," The boys were 'Douglas Darnborough and Wayne Heard, Lucy 'hadn't seen them since they were small boys, and here they were almost grown mem, "Mrs." sought to unravel the puzzle of the dead swan. It was obviously a young bird so could have been buffeted by high winds and died of exhaustion, The boys and "Mr." had looked it over but could see no mark on the body, It could have collided with an aeroplane over the lake but there were no signs of broken bones. Any blood marks would have been washed away, the boys said, as they found it in the water. ""r-r Douglas and Wayne were down on the beach below Poneer Park watching numerous ducks on the lake. Just at the edge of the ice they spied the dead swan floating on the water and were able to haul it out, They had seen five large birds which they could not identify flying west in line with that spot, Had the other members of the family been staying in the vicinity to mourn this bird? Lucy wondered, "Was it in good condition?" she asked. "How much would it weigh?" "Guess!" said "Mr." Douglas Darnborough thought about 30 pounds and Wayne Heard agreed. "Mr." went out and weighed it. When he reported "six pounds," the boys looked at each and laughed. "It seemed heavier than that when we were carrying it up here!" said Douglas. Lucy learned then that they'd carried it between them, holding it up high so that the head and neck wouldn't drag on the ground. And the wind resistance to the out-spread wings undoubtedly increased the weight, so it did seem mighty heavy. They then brought the remains in for "Mrs." to view, "Mr" examined its body and said that while it wasn't plump, neither had it died of starvation, And so the inquest closed. Death was attributed to un- known causes. All felt a sense of sadness that one of these graceful big birds would not go on with the flock to its northern nest grounds, and would not pass this way again in migration next autumn. While on the subject of birds, "Mr." has decided that he is not buying sunflower seeds for the purple grackle. They come to the feeding station, chase all the other birds out, and eat all the feed in no time flat! Moreover, he doesn't wish to enocurage their visits. He has an eye to his own food supply, for he informed his "Mrs." that those black birds are worse than crows to pull out sprouting corn, And "Mr." is already enjoying, in antici- pation, his garden corn. • "Mr." and "Mrs." at "The Hut" are but two of the many bird watchers in the village. People, generally, are fond of birds. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Sprague, Detroit, have been spending two months at Delray Beach, Florida. Mr. Sprague. does not identify our migratory birds down there, but she enjoys their vocal numbers. And Mrs. Mabel Wallace, Onsted, Mich., who has been feeding the same species of birds all winter, as have been at the station at "The Hut", lately, is one up on "Mr." and "Mrs." She has a pair of Titmouse in her list. P.S. Fred Watson was astonished on Sunday morning to find a dead swan behind his cedar hedge. It raised con- siderable speculation amongst those who viewed it. Had it died in flight and dropped there? Did it? MERRILL TV SEIM Authorized Philips -Dealer Radio — TV and .Appliance Repairs 215 Wictprio Street, — Phone HU, 2-7021 .1. "i.*11)i(4?

MaelVfibar. has the "Marriac" season and will operate her himself this year. But while he and others have been clown the lake as far as Grand Bend which is clear of ice, the only tugs to set nets from Bayfield are the "Play- fair" and "Bert and Dick" op- erated by Ed Siddal. At time of writing they had lifted once, taking 600 pounds of whitefish into Goderich. The bottom of the lake has been very dirty and the crews had to contend with consider- able rubbish in their nets, as well as the hazards of the ice fields. The winds have kept the ice- floes in to shore in the Bay- field i and Goderich area, cur- tailing fishing operations from these ports. Other boats Bayfield har- bor ar. the "Dungill" (T. and T.
