By EUGENE BURNS A nature puzzler. Crack my Identity by No. 2 and you're an expert; by No. 4 you're plenty good; 6 only fair. The give-away clue is tucked away in the last paragraph. Hop to it. . 1. A beautiful creature, I have the widest distribution of any 'mammal in America. My young do not resemble me. I can leap 120 feet into the air to land on a branch. My tongue is covered with sharp, horny, backward directed processes. ' 2. Hardy, I have adapted njT iclf to conditions from the spruce forests of British Columbia to the swamplands of Florida, and down to the wind-swept tip of Cape Horn. I live at sea level to .mountain tops, from the foggy -chilled forests of the Northwest to the burning sands of Arizona. ; My beat may be 100 miles long, : covered within 5 to 6 days. Those in the northern and southern cx- tremities of my domain are larg ! er than those encountered in the ; tropics. t 3. My body is long and lithe. My skull, short and broad. My ,' rounded ears are prominent. Be- lng a pursuer, my yellow eyes, which I can narrow to vertical ihts, are well forward in my short face.

For thee are the kinds of goings-on you'd see full-grown adults engaged in: Spanking each other. Stalking angrily out of the , room, slamming the door. Yelling defiance, then refusing : to breathe. -; Sucking their thumbs. ' Tossing tantrums. : Kicking over tables. i Dashing plates against the floor. . ; All this is Fenn's first-time course in child behaviorism, of- f ering parents a chance to get to- I gether on awkward problems they're encountering in bringing) , up Junior. . liycnoiogist James A.

My claws sharp and curved, can be with drawn into horned sheaths. My hair is close, thick and soft to the touch. 4. My color is tawny brown deepening in tone toward the spine; pale around the eyes and whitish on the throat, legs and belly. The male about a foot longer than the female, leaves scented claw marks as love-notes on the trail. Our courtship is brief, the entire relationship sel dom lasting a fortnight. Should a rival appear, a deadly combat may take place with the female watching placidly. 5. 1 have perhaps the largest hunting territory of any land' t Fenn is the professor. He selects parents in the class, has them stand up, march forward and dramatize cited child problems, whether they entail thrashing on the floor or chewing on the drap eries. "At first, parents are reluctant to act like their own children," Bard said. "However, they soon realize that ,in order to under stand children's reactions they must place themselves in juve nile dilemmas." The psychologist explained that while acting parents hold the stage, the rest of the class makes decisions as to causes and reme dies for such child upsets. "Seeing things acted out, par ents are able to understand rea sons leading up to a crisis," he said. In previous experiments with similar class at Children's Aid Society, the ratio of attendance I was 80 per cent women, 20 per cent men. But in Fenn's Parent Workshop there are only two mothers, all the rest are men. Various parent education groups in the city are observing the new Fenn course with keen, if not morbid interest.

It served fruit cup, soup. ! salad, chicken, ice cream and coffee. based animal. An accomplished still-hunter, I stalk my prey, slinking upon it, and when within 60-70 feet, I may give two great bounds and knock it over with my strike. . Should I miss my quarry, frequently a deer, I do not run it down. Usually, I am right-pawed. 6. The reigning predator in North America, I kill from 35 to 100 deer a year. In California my yearly toll is around 30,000 deer. Although I seldom weigh 200 pounds or exceed a length of 9 feet, I can kill an elk and drag it about. My food is all flesh rac coons, foxes, rabbits, skunks. deer, elk, peccaries, ground-nest ing birds and man s domesticated animals calves, dogs, sheep, chickens with a particular fond ness for colt. In my killing, out doorsmen say I am more bene ficial than harmful because I weed out the subnormal those with infestations of ticks or bots, or with injuries, hoof deformities, and malproportions of leg bones or body lengths. 7. After being carried for 79-93 days, my one to 5 young are born any month of the year, weighing one pound, about a foot long, fully furred but blind.

Q For what is a divining rod used? A The rod, which is a forked stick, supposed to be attracted by water as a magnet is by steel, is used to locate the best spot to dig a well. Many say the rod is of no value. Q Has a census been taken of the population of Red China? A Red China claims a popu lation of 601,930,000 people, based on a direct census taken in June, 1953. Q What federal civil liberties does a convicted felon lose?

A Andrew Jackson, who at the age of 14 was captured by a British raiding party during the Revolutionary War. Q What is meant by the term "Divine Right of Kings"?

To become a good hunter takes at least 8 months' training, and sometimes a mother may keep them two years. 8. We have no important nat ural enemies. When cornered we may fight viciously, sometimes turning upside down to fight. Al though I habitually follow a man's trail, I seldom show myself and contrary to popular belief, I rare ly, rarely attack a human. 9. Because I fight silently and suffer great agony without utter ing a sound, a lot of outdoorsmen swear that I never made a sound beyond my purr of contentment. That's wrong. During mating sea son, tne female, far from reticent, shrieks her intentions with an unearthly yowl. The male re sponds with that universal mas culine expression of admiration, a low whistle. 10. Although Indians worship- pea me as a god who provided them with part of his kill, the white man has been my steady foe and driven me from most of my natural range, including the Atlantic seaboard. He calls me varmint, catamount, panther, painter, el leone, puma, mountain lion and cougar and mistaken ly, a Brazilian name, jaguar, a breed of cat of another color.
