In a despatch from London by M«w York Tlm«s' correspondent, Jemea Reston, we find reasonable anweers: 1. the Finns doubted whe- Iker the 50,000 available Allied trovs» would eve<r get to Finland â€" Oenooay would have moved north to meet them with land and air tor- eea; 2. Finnish military experts doubted that Allied aid could reach there In time, even if m Interter- «Boe developed from the Ka;l quar- lar; 3. the Finns heeitated because •t their bonds with Scandinavian eountrles â€" they feared Norway and Sweden would be overrun and Scandinavia tamed Into the main hattlefield of Europe; 4. the Finns leared that If they did not sue for peace they would be kept at war In- definitely so that Russia could not k^p Germany (according to the "Ironside plan").

IDENTIFY GAME FIRST The hunter who makes the ex- cuse of mistaken identity when ho is arraigned in court on a charge of shooting a protected animal or bird, really has no excuse at all, according to an article in the De- partment of Game and Fisheries monthly bulletin for Januai-y and February. The article advises hunters to restrain their trigger fingers until they are sure of the identity of the game. "In Sudbury recently," the ar- ticle says, "two men pleaded guil- ty of shooting three elk in the Burwash Crown game preservo. In the course of their defence both men maintained that the elk looked like deer." The article goes on to explain those whose experience in hunting is very short, have no reason for stating that they thought an elk was a deer. The elk, both male and fe- male, is considerably larger than a deer. Refrain From Shooting "This business of mistaken id- entity, however, has a much more extensive application than just the inability to distinguish game. It becomes tragic when a hunter dis- regards one of the most important rules associated with the use of a gun for hunting purposes. Several lives were needlessly sacrifit-ed during the last year because hunt- ers failed to determine precisely, before shooting, just what they were firing at. At no time is there any similarity in appearance be- tween a man and a groundhog. "The moral of all this is that hunters who are unable to iden- tify their game should refrain from shooting."

The romantics look for sunshine, singing birds, and babbling brooks. The garden- era wait impatiently for frost to leave the ground. Others are cheered by the appearance of marbles on the sidewalk.

Not all these signs have yet become evident, but there is a growing agreement that spring is definite- ly on the way. â€" Halifax Chronicle No Trace Of Halliburton Richard Halliburton, American adventurer and writer, sailed a year ago th'.s month f-.on.
