BACK-YARD FRONTIER: THE RIGHT TO LIVE? by Polly Bradley
It looks as if Congress may at last pass , befor e this session is over, a bill protecting endanged species, prohibiting in -terest shipment and importation of animals and products of animals in danger of extinction.
It's odd, but there are s till people who wonder why we need a bill like this.
The other day I got into one of those weird arguments I have ever y so often with someone who can'tsee the purpose of keepingalive a sam,plingofwild creatures . .. some Eskimo curlews, some black-footed ferrets, some California condors, some blue whales and some alligators.
"What is the purpose of an alligator?" thundered this indignant gentleman. "People have been known to be killed by alligators, and if it would save the 'life of one human being I'd kill every alligator in Florida."
He couldn't say the same about the Eskimo curlew, and he had to admit that the ivory-billed woodpecker might even be useful in killing insects, but the wolf and mountain lion, the grizzly bear and the polar bear were definitely on his black list. "Only a few wildlife enthusiasts ever see an Attwater's prairie chicken, so who cares if they are all gone? Animals have been getting extinct ever since the dinosaur anyway."

NATURE'S WAYS by Wayne Hanley
New England's tree swallows now are taking off for Centra: America, shedding their feathers as they fly.
Fewotherbirds in the world can afford the luxury of moulting while migrating. Only biologists can appreciate the enormous energy that birds must pour into either migratory flight or moulting a nd renewing feathers. To perform bo th functions simultaneously seems a lmost unbelievable.
Yet, few birds can fly with the grace and ease of a swallow. And, moulting while flying tends to prove that tree swallow flight may be almost as effortless as it appears .
The tree swallow is common to all New England, and to a lesser extent, so is the barn swallow. In northern New Hampshire and north3rn Maine, the barn swallow fades from the environment.
.. Maine has a s pecial endowment of swallows, since it has
mo:. a bank swallows and eli ff swallows than any other New England state --possibly more bank swallows than the other five states combined.
The other two S'?CCics of New England swallows are fewer in number and more localized than their cousins. They are the purple martin which is more abundant in the northern states and the rough-winged swallow which has a southern distribution and seldom reaches Maine.
For all the swallows, the end of summer is at hand. Many started moving southward by late July and by late August the southward trek of all species has reached full throttle.
On some of the lace-like peninsul~s of the Maine coast, along the Merrimack and Connecticut Valleys of New Hampshire and Massachusetts and at such areas as Plum Island on the Massachusetts north shore, one can see concentrations of tree swallows now. Connecticut residents often see large flocks of tree swallows flying south over Long Island Sound.
Few places in New England, however, ever experience the build -up of flocks that occurs each autumn at Point Judith, Rhode Island, where thousandsoftree swallows join into mas sive flocks.
The other swallows are less given to dallying than tree swallow does, or just sort of disappear without notice, as the rough-winged swallows and purple martins do in our latitudes.
Along the New England coast at this season, one may s ee hundreds of barn swallows in one day. Each barn swallow, however, seems to be traveling southward oblivious to others of its kind, desp1te the solid stream of moving birds. They lack the sociability of traveling tree swallows.
Despite the thousands of bank swallows th.at live to the north ofNewEngland, especially along the sandy cliffs of the Gaspe the birds seldon are seen in great numbers as they move southward through our region. Cliff swallows leave the north even more inconspicuously, seeming more to evaporate than migrate . The rough-winged swallows are the most impatient of the lot. They usually have leftour region by the end of July.
The few ;>urple martins that nest in New England usually flee the region be~'H'e the end of August. In this area, they seem to move as families or i.ndividuais . If the whole lot of them traveled in one flock, the group would not be particularly noticeable since thtar present numbers are so low.
SEPTEMBER 1969 TIPS ON USING MEDICil\'E
Your prescription is actually "Medical treatment." in product form. You must value it j ust as you do directions from your physichtn to cat certain foods, or restrict certain activities.
TAKE 'l'HE WHOLE PRESCRIPTION
Don't stop taking a medicine after you begin to feel better unless your doctor approves. It he does sa.y "stop", destroy the remaining portion for it will probably lose it's potency.
NEVER SHARE YOUR MEDICINE Do not give anyone else some of your prescription just because their symptoms may be similar, and do not take medicine intended for someone else. This can be a dangerous practice and could result in serious harm. For many illnesses have s imilar symtoms, but requit·e wholly different treatments.
OBEY A PHYSICIAN'S REFILL INSTRUCTIONS
There are some prescriptions that are not r ef illable at all. Some can be refilled at the direction of your doctor. We ·always follow his instructions and will tell you if there is a restriction on refilling or how it can be refilled.
NEVER TRANSFER CONTAINERS
There is a number on every prescription that we. dispense. This enables us to identify it qu1ckly. Never t>Ut two medicines in one container. It could cause an error later on.

PRESIDENT DAVID 0. MCKAY Youthful president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter -Day Stlints Celebrates his 96th bir thday September 8, 1969 .
96 YEAR OLD DAVID 0. MC KAY HEADS FAMILY CENTERED CHURCH
Born in the alpin-like Utah community of Huntsvi lle on September 8, 1873, PresidentDavid 0. McKay, of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, will celebrate his 96th birthday Monday.
Although physically confined to a wheel chair, the tall, whi tehaired Church.leader, who has seen the Church double i n size, continues to direct the worldwide membership of nearly 3 million Latter-Day Saints.
Early in his years he was given responsibility in the family and grew to appreciate the value of work. He was an active youth and enjoyed participating in the local community ball games .
President McKay's parents .,verc n::nivcs of the British Isles; it was in Scotland that the young man served as a missionary before the turn of the century. While there, he saw one day a motto carved in stone reacling, "WHATE'ER THOU ART, ACT WELLTI-IY .PART." He has since stated that these words have carried great s ignificance to him through the years.
Bishop Robert Dow, the local presiding authority of the Church, recounted some of the life story of President McKay as follows:
"As a young man, President McKay aspired to be a career educator. Following graduation from the University of Utah,

he was appointed superintendent of Weber Academy (now WebE'r State C0llege) in Ogden, Utah.
"He surre11dered this position in 1906 to accept a call to become a member of the Church's Council of Twelve Apostles, and directed much of the Sunday School system. ·"DavidO. McKaywasnamedPresidentoftheChurch of Jesus
Christ of Latter - Day Saints in 1951 'and has seen greater growth than at any other period of the Church's history. He has travt~led millions of miles throughout the world looking after the spiritual needs of the members.
"The Great teacher that he is, President McKay has stressed the importance of good family life in developing the individual as a child of God. He has recently stated, 'nothing can take the place of the home in rearing and teaching children, and no other success can compensa.to for failure in the home. '"
Gne of the Chur ch programs initiated during his Presidency is the Family Home Evening program. It was begun in 19G3 to teach the precepts of honesty, sobriety, morality, respect for the law, and peace and unity in Mormon homes. Each faithfulfamilyin the Church meets together weekly for gospel discussions and recreational activities.
President McKay and his wife, Emma Ray Riggs McKay, have been married for more than 68 years and say that their love for each other grows with the passing years. They have
four sons and two daughters and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
David 0 . McKay enjoys the distinction of being the oldest living ex - collegiate football player in the nation. He has a keen interest in nature and until health restricted enjoyed horseback rides around the old family home.
Even today, David 0. McKay personally guides Latter-Day Saint members in strengthening the family unit and in building character through observance of Gospel Principles.
Members from throughout the area join in recognition of the start of the Prophet's 97th year.

BACK YARD FRONTIER Cont'd from Page 2
I tried futiley to explain the value of the right variety of the natural world . •• the 'idea that the destruction of these wild creatures may well be a danger signal for man as he wrecks · his world a nd makes it unlivable for himself .• the importance to me, even if I never saw a whooping crane , of knowing that mankind had made it possible for this fascinating creature to remainalive. Ievensuggestedthatotherliving things, per se , just because they exist , might have a right to a spot on the g~obe as lesser brothers of mankind .• . but this seemed utter foohshness to him. "Man is the measure of all things, " he quoted, and thatseemed tosettleitfor him. The rest of creation could vanish into oblivion, and this man would clearly never notice it until he choked on his last breath of polluted air.
I gototrt of there, fast, and went back to my kids, who frequently seem to have more sense than adults .
To kids it's perfectly obvious why there ought to be some polar bears and leopards and walruses and whales. Adults ask silly questions about the optimim number of walruses needed to enable a walrus herd to survive, and the purpose to humanity of the existence of walruses, but to kids it's all perfectly obvious.
So don 't ask me to explain why walruses should be allowed to survive. If you don 't know the answer , get in a quiet and beauti ful place, and ask the hidden six-year-old that still is hiding somewhere deep down in your soul. If you van't make with the child inside you, try asking your own child or grandchild. He'll tell you. He knows.
by rreada Lott This week's novel deals with the so called "Beautiful People,"
a group with which the author, Louis Auchincloss, should be quite familiar since his name is well known in that group.
The story deals with the Shallcross family, an old New York family whose fortunes have risen anj fallen periodically over the generations.
Into the lives of the parents, two daughters and one son of this socially prominent family comes Jay Livingston, forn Levermore.
Mr. Livingston, no stranger to the world of profit, buys the ancestral home of the Shallcrosses ~tnd thus becomes involved i n their lives.
Personally, I found THE \VORLD OF PROFIT dull and not really worth,the time to read. If this book accurately describes the lives of the ''Beautiful People" they arc to be pitied. Preoccupation with one's self and social position must be the least useful and most unrewardi.ng life style imaginable.
Mr. Auchinclossdida reasonably good job of telling the story of the lives of his .characte rs but what can you really do with dull charac t.er;s. l 'm sure he didn' t mean to make them dull and
: perhaps to so~e readers they might not be but that i.s how I found them .
So READ and make · up your own mind, but don't say I didn't warn you.
