Can Bat See in the Dark? (Copyright, mo. By th. WhMUr Syndicate, Inc.) If only on account of its ex tremely delicate and sensitive nervous system, the bat is one of the curiosities of the animal kingdom because it may ,be said to have eyes all over its body. Those eyes, however, are not optical organs in the sense that the word is generally employed, but a series of minute v and curious sense organs distributed over almost the entire wing sur face and, apparently, extending into the ears. Spallanzani. a famous natur alist of the 18th century, noted that the bat's eyes are usually very small and deeply embedded in the fur of the head. Also that their construction is such as not to permit of the extension of the pupil, as in the case of the cat. In the interest of science Spall anzani conducted a number of ex periments with bats, covering their eyes so that they could not posibly see and turning them loose in a darkened room which contained a number of pieces of hanging string and other obstruct tions. To his amazement the bats circled around, apparently as surely as they would have if their eyes had not been covered. But further experiments proved that the application of coat of varnish to certain portions of their wings and even stoppage of their, ear-openings had a great ef fect upon their sureness of flight. The inference, of course, is that the highly sensitive nerves in the wings and the ears notify the bat when he comes close to any obstacle and thus, to all intents and purposes, act as eyes.

If the parties are minors (and, a girl under 18 would be) the consent of parents or guardian is required. Parents Problem Is it ever right for one child to "tel! on" another? It is very much to be preferred that one child should never "tell on" another; the habit of tale-bearing is such an ugly one. In no circum stances shouid a child "tell" for his own advantage or comfort. If to protect a younger child, whom he cannot otherwise protect, he mignt rightly 'do it.

' The man who makes cast iron laws for himself or anyone else is not the man who is either comfort able to live with or usually success ful. This does iiot mean that one should be vacillating.

Make up your mind that all roads lead to Rome, and if you are switched off the seemingly plain course through no fault of your own, keep right on going toward your goal in your mind's eye, and you will get there.
