$8000 fire on Saturday morning, Don
was delivering meat to a home, the oc-

moment. He noticed a blaze in the
kitchen, apparently caused by the elec-
tric plate, which had been left on when
the lady of the house went out. Instead
of taking time to notify the fire depart-
ment, the lad smashed a pane of glass
to gain entrance through a locked
door and quickly extinguished the
mounting blaze. As lie left the place,
he encountered the returning owner,
and, in a hurry ,to get back to work,
merely shouted as he whipped by,

HUNTER CONSIDER
THE BIRD OF PREY
Large numbers of i•ecl-tailed hawk,
rough-legged 'hawk and snowy owl,
moving into southern Ontario during
the winter, deserve more protection.
Usually these large birds' are killed
because of their alleged attacks on pou-
ltry, but analyses of the stomach con-
tents of these birds made at the Royal
Ontario Museum show that their major
prey is shrews and wild mice. The
latter do much daMage to fruit trees
and shrubbery throughout the winter.
In addition, the snowy owl kills large
numbers of the brown rat—a dangetous
pest.
To many persons, however, hawks
and owls are intrinsically worth saving,
even, where the economic consideration
is not clear. They are a beautiful and
graceful part• of our countryside. If all
animals which fell foul of some special
part of our interests were eradicated,
this would be a dull and empty land
for the lover of the out-of-doors.
