TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, MAY 30,. 1918
WHAT SCOTLAND IS DOING DIFFER OVER ORIGIN OF DOG
Thia Little Country Has Already
Cheerfully Done Very Much More
Than Her Share.
We are pretty well acquainted In this
country with the part Canadu Is tak
ing In the war. We have been advised
from time to time of the Individual
sacrifices being made by the people
to the north o.’ us. We know only in
a general way what other people are
doing. So it comes as refreshing news
to hear from the lips of such a man
as Harry Lauder the heroic work and
sacrifices of the Scots.
More than 300,000 Scotchmen are
under arms, or have given up their
lives in the struggle. And Scotland
Is a small country. In the cities and
towns there are no more eligible men
—no more men fit to bear arms. They
have all departed. Scotland is a land
of old men and women and little chil-
dren—and crippled soldiers. It is not
the Scotland of three years ago, with
a husky set of strapping young fellows
tilling the fields and working In the
mines and mills.
Not only that, but the people do not
complain. There are no riots because
of the conditions—no murmurlngs
Against their fate. The war is on; the
Scots will fight it out. That is the
spirit one finds in Scotland, among
those old men and women and among
the little children. It is the spirit one
finds out in the trenches, where the
Scottish soldiers stand on guard and
meet the enemy face to face.
The history of Scotland is too well
understood to call attention' to it here.
The record of the Scots, made in the
long ago, still Is fresh In the mind of
every one who knows history. So it
Isn’t necessary to state that the Scots
are born fighters, that they are not
going to give up. They have done in
this war exactly what those familiar
with Scottish history expected them to
do. And they will not fail at any time
in the future.—Columbus Dispatch.
TOOK PHOTOGRAPHS OF CZAR
Movie Operation Wa« Privileged to
Get "Clo»e-Up" View« of the im
prisoned Former Russian Ruler.
In “Donald Thompson in Russian,”
the movie photographer tells how he
|racceeded in getting a picture of the
czar after the revolution had begun.
He went out to Tzarskoye Selo, the
palace near Petrograd where the royal
family were confined, and from a dis
tance saw the czar and his son walk-
*ig In the yard. "The servants must
have told hlmjf writes Mr. Thompson,
*for the cznr sent word to me to come
saying that he would allow me to make
a picture as close as I wished. I told
him that I had met him before in 1915,
and had made pictures of him then at
the front and at Lemberg. He remem-
beredantj immediately sfkjke of Meuse,

(was making plctqrçs and thé êîVfilerâ
was being re-loaded so that I could
put in some new film, several of the
^oldlers came up close, while the czar
fvas watching how the camera was
loaded. They were smoking. One of
[them elbowed the czar away and nt the
same time blew smoke directly in Ijjs
jface. But the cznr didn’t show that he
was annoyed by this. After I had made
some motion picture films of him and
his son, and also some still photo
graphs, I saluted and said ^good-by.’
He answered ’good-by.’ While walk
ing away I glanced around. He was
still looking after me and talking to
his sop.’

Looking Back with Reverence
Let Us Consecrate Anew
Whether All Kinds Had a Common
Ancestor Has Long Been a Mat
ter of Dispute.
Memorial Day
The ancestry of the dog has been
the occasion of much controversy, ac
cording to Leo 8. Crandall’rf book,
"Pets.” Many naturalists hnve con
sidered that it is descended from a
single ancestor, such as the common
wolf of Europe. Darwin, however,
leans toward the theory of multiple
origin, and advances much convincing
proof in support of his belief. It is
widely known that many savage tribes
have dogs, which appear to be simply
half-tamed representatives of the par
ticular wild dogllke animals Inhabiting
the same regions.
The dogs of the American pinina In
dians closely resemble the small prnl- 1
rie wolf, or coyote; the husky of the ,
north country is plainly not far re
moved from the gray wolf; the Ger
man sheep dog and the Sarrioyede are
strikingly wolfllke In appearance.
Whether our present dogs are the re
sult of crossing these many simple
derivatives of wolves nnd Jackals
among themselves, or whether there
was an original ancestral dog, now ex
tinct, with which the blood of other
species has become mingled, we have
not yet been able to determine, though
so many primordial animal remains
have come to light.
According to St. George Mivart, the
dingo is the only wild dog still exist
ing which meets the requirements of
an ancestor of our modern breeds.
This species is found throughout Aus
tralia and fossil bones which hnve been
found show its presence there from
very early times.

O
MOLLUSKS MAKE GOOD SOUP
Thrown Up on Florida Beaches by the
Wave« They Are Collected
Sold to Hotel«.
Along 1 the Florida beaches a very
common i and familiar kind of rock Is
wholly i composed of the shells of a
«mall species of mollusk, oval in shape
and half an inch long. It Is called
"coquina,” nnd is hnrd on the feet if
one walks over it without shoes.
In beds below the line of low tide
are mollusks of the same kind, alive.
Their bivalve shells are pink, blue and
of other colors, quite brilliant, so that
in places the beaches are beautiful to
the eye, great numbers of them being
thrown up by the waves along the
shore.
Under such circumstances they soon
die, of course, leaving thejr pretty
shells to adorn the strand. But there
are always plenty of live ones at the
water's edge, and these are gathered
in quantity at some of the winter re
sorts by boys who collect them with '
rakes and carry them In baskets to the 1
hotels for sale.
They ^re jjsed for soup, being'
pressed to a pulp in order to extract '
their Juice. The latter, strained and
heated, affords a very delicious table ,
beverage known as "coquina broth.”
It is particularly recommended for In-'
vallds and persons with weak diges-1
tlon.
The Sap of Spring.
When the sap of spring Is bursting'
the fetters of winter the general hu-'
man heart beats high. A few of us
philosophers receive amid the rich but
sober tints of autumn a happiness that
we would not exchange for any other
season, but we are a minority, and
small. The head of one of the most
important departments at Washington,
who thinks about the processes of man
kind, has a theory that makes a regu
lar curve of the {elation of die seasons
to the appetite for war. As the buds 1
open, every nation thinks It Is on the
edge of victory. This curve rises for a
while, begins to decline in the summer
and gets well down in the autumn.
The period therefore, when statesmen.
If they had decided to make peace,
could do It most easily, Is from the
days of goldenrod and autumn browns
to Just before the greening of the
buds. The story of coal, a tragic
story to the poor, helps this curve, but
there Is In it much of sheer poetry, in
dependent of more solid things.—Nor
