Youn g ^ ^^^ rV^sfc ^ Re; cl 1 he Want Ads WHY Waterfowls Can So Easily Keep Afloat Th? fea thers of aquatic birds serve bo th as air cushions and as a heat in s u l a t or. Prof. Joseph Barcroft of King ' s college, Cambr idge , in a Royal Institute lecture recently said that the rea son waterfowl do not sink like other ordinary ver tebrates in water is on account of the air ret ained In t he i r f ea th ers. T h e wa t er does no t wor k I n t o t he I nters ti ces be t ween t he fr ills of the feathers because they are so completely oiled that they never get wet e v en on th e su r face. The a ir Imprisoned In the feathers a lso serves to keep the bir d warm. The hardihood of water birds in this respect Is fairly manifested by the fa- miliar sight of ducks swimming In the ice-bound spaces of lakes and rivers, apparently enjoying themselves. \It is not that the separation of a sur face of col d water by an Inch or so of a ir from the body of the bird would keep it wurm , \ said Professor Barcroft , \bnl i-onvectlnn currents would be set up which would rapidly cool the bird. \ Caught up, however , in the fine mesh work of feathers , the air is almost motionless anil, lit'ing a very poor conductor , the body wnriuth Is all re tained . \ Although in sleep we lose what we cal l consciousness—the active direc- tion of the mind—all our body and at least a purl of the brain are still awake and working. Our breathing, our heart action , our digestive proc- esses are still \ currying tm , \ though at u reduced rule , and there is ;i bit of our ' br uin still active. In our sleep we limy unconsciousl y take up a position leading to cramp or oi lier dlsOutufort . our di gestion <nuy be giving us trouble or the tempera- ture of ttte roo m may have changed and tile bed to be too hot or too cold. In any such event , the active part of the brain orders the body to do Its best to remedy affairs. And so we find that we have turned over.

Yet there are man y facts which point In quite the opposite direction , .in examina tion of wore than half a m illion school children proved that physical culture defects occur more fre quently In ru ral pnpllR than in ur- ban. Since W10 the New York rural death rate tin s been higher than that of cities. On the other hand , for t he countr y as a whole, the rural rate Is lower than the urbnn.
