The majority of our nammals have their young in the arly months of the year, and in tpril and May it is possible to H vatch the most delightful games ii among the puppies of the fields. 3adger, fox and otter cubs are ray playful little creatures. The tter and badger appear to have i certain amount of method in heir games, but fox cubs simply "omp among themselyes in a wild i abandon. On a sloping ' near my nme seven fox cubs came out at a large hole; on the ledge just nitside they played with a round tone, pushing it with their feet, ossing it in the air and allowing t to run down the dope. When tired of this. they played sand cliff game which resembled "Follow he Leader. One would run forward, dodge and leap over all inri of imaginary obstacles, and i rhere Sat Smithers Cat.

Bosncing Badgers. Young badgers are among the most amusing cubs to watch at play. With' their bold black and white markings they, are quaint-lookilittle creatures, and rather clumsy, but there is no doubt that they thoroughly enjoy life, and their, play is exuberant and strenuous. J. t First they poke' theiriioses in the ground, searching for hidden grubs; then, without any warning, all stiffen their fur, making it stand upright, and now they look twice their. sizey .With their short legs .also stiffened they bounce round bne knottier like footballs, then leap in,' grip a mouthful of fur, and roll over and over. They break apart, and again play the bouncing game, and just as suddenly as they started to play they cease, and the next moment all are diligently searching for more food. Many young otters are bom at an awkward time, that is at the beginning of winter, but they are hardy little creatures and appear to be able to stand any amount of cold. Otters, more than any other wild creatures, show us that they thoroughly enjoy life; a plentiful supply of food makes them contented, and both parents and young play the most delightful games. Fan ia the Water. What appeared to be a large brown ball was floating gently down stream, hardly making a ripple as it swept along. Suddenly the ball seemed to burst open with a loud splash, and four excited otters with their bright, eager eyes well above the water, started swimming round one another.

In the first place, despite our sup- posedly efficient Intelligence service, he would have found a good many generals and admirals opposing certain modernisation plans which are now essential. So that, had the President chosen to go to the country with the idea of scaring our Citizens into stirring up congress to huge national defenae appropriations, ha would not have hid a united front with which to oppose the pacifists plus the. little army and navy. men. CAME DISILLUSIONMENT It must be remembered that up until the invasion of Denmark and Norway there was a very large dement not only through the country, but in congress, which believed that any nation that desired to do so could preserve its neutrality, and that it did not need an efficient national defense tor that purpose. As tor the generals and admirals; who, people are saying, should have waned congress and the country, there are plenty of answers. In the first place, some of them did. But do you remember what happened tp General William Mitchell? He found that just saying the thing! he believed and which have since been to a large degree justified, was not enough. He had to say more than he believed in order to shock the country, as he saw it, into a realization of tiie necessities of the situation. That was why he used the word treason in his attacks on the senior officers he regarded as responsible. Everybody knew the men he attacked were not guilty of treason, and there was not much sympathy for him when he was court martialed. Roosevelt might easily have flopped had he tried to scare the country four years ago, three year ago, or even two months ago!

Of course, after the war la over, this country could always buy rubber from the islands which are now the Dutch East Indies. Even if they belong to Germany, or for that matter Japan though Cordell Hull has certainly put his foot down on any change in their national status. But as officials here contemplate the various possibilities of a world with no British empire, and particularly a world with no friendly British fleet, the possibilities change considerably. There would be no assurance in any futute war that this country could maintain trade routes to the Dutch East Indies, even if it had its own shipping.
