ISSSI Fox Fz.es Fleaa in Wateii Is This Feet or Just Fablet ' Retirement hung heavy on his hands. Many years of ac tive service in the world's affairs had geared him up to a near feverish pitch. Now that he was retired he was suffering the big let down; time dragged, the days were long and the nights were longer. A friend suggested a cure, "Why not spend some time In careful observation of the little creatures" that inhabited an uncleared area near his home. . " The man tried it. After a few weeks he became so in terested in this new vocation there hardly seemed time enough to enjoy this entirely new field of wonders that had opened up before him. Dur ing the course of time, he made some remarkable dis coveries. He aLso ran head long into that peculiar area that exists between supersti tion and actual, scientific fact. He was to have trouble sorting it all out. Fox Approached In the man's actual field of observation was a small lake. He spent many daya on the shore, his back against a tree, his eyes focused on the pulsing life before him. Late one evening, lust before he decided to call It a day, ha saw a gray fox approach the pond's edge. The animal turned its head from side to side, testing the air. No tainted odor assailed his nostrils; he resumed his search along the shore. Two or three times he stopped. picxea up a stick, mouthed It a moment, then drooDcd it and trotted on. Evidently he was looking for some spe cial trick. The man said he was watch ing as the fox found what he had been looking for, an old tree branch, smooth and weathered. "The animal pick ed it up, balancing it care fully in his mouth. Waded Into Pond Holding the stick, the fox waded out into the pond. Ha allowed his body to sink un til only his mouth, which held the stick, was above the sur face. It was all very plain, the man reported afterwards. He could see, with the binocu lars, every expression on the animal's face. ' "Some time passed." said the man in telling of his ex perience, "and all the time the fox hardly moved a mus cle. Finally, the fox merely allowed the stick to float away, while he swam ashore. He shook himself, like a dog, and trotted away into the underbrush. Out on the surface of the little pond, the stick floated. The man, still an amateur In animal behavior, had no idea what he had witnessed. With out any definite thought in mind as to why he was doing It, he secured a long stick and proceeded to bring the stick to the shore. Probably, thought the man, the fox merely used the stick to keep himself afloat while his body cooled off in the cool water. Not expecting to find a thing. however, the man examined the stick. - Crawling With Fleas "That stick," the man later claimed, "was crawling with fleas." This of course presup poses that the wily fox select ed a stick, swam out into the water, held the stick in Its mouth until all the fleas crawled up onto the only dry place, which In this instance, was the stick. Also it implies that the fox knew when all the fleas were on the stick, and then he swam away and left them stranded. The gentleman ws not the first to report such a per formance. Whether true or false, fact or superstition, has been a much argued point in animal behavior for - many years. There is one scientific fact that throws a shadow on the entire business - that is tests that have been perform ed on fleas.. They are hardy little creatures, and they have actually survived under wo ter for periods of several hours, wlth.no apparent in convenience. Superstition can sometimes distort a man'a in herent Judgment. i - -t i mm mmt m t mini ut, Om 1 SAFEWAY STORES, INC 699 East Jackson Sf. Medferd
