Blue Geese Honking

Their Way Southward

And the Wise Gander Isn't Always. Leading

By JOE COLLIER All of you people who think the

Blue Goose is just one of the thousands of roadside eating places you pass up, cup your ears.

There have been several flights

of blue geese over this area in the last few nights, and they're worth

looking fer because they are relatively rarely seen in these parts.

They are perhaps the fastest,

most expert and determined fliers of all the geese now honking their way south, and they were chosen at least once as the trade mark for an expensive auto. The blue goose has become, more or less, the unofficial symbol of

vel.

The blue goose is “slate blue, has

a white head and pink feet and

rather smaller than the Canadian goose and other species. It nearly resmbles a duck in flight habits. In general, geese are capricious filers and often fly only fat enough to get out of the weather they've just left before settling down again. Then, as winter ‘advances, they fly on a little farther, and so on until winter has edged them down south. On their stopovers, the geese, usually about 100 in a flock, will rise at daybreak from the water to a height they have learned is out of shotgun range. They will hunt for a grain field, preferably wheat, and as nearly as possible in level plateau country. Then they will land and all but about 15 of them, apparently previously selected, will begin to

feed. 5

The 15 or so act as sentries and stand with their long necks straight in the air, watching for anything that might be construed as a hunter, If they see something suspicious, they sound a warning and up goes the flock beyond danger. Naturalists also say there is nothing to the old adage about the geese being led in their ‘wedge flight by the oldest, or wisest, gander in the flock. It is probable, they say, that the leader is always an adult, but they have been observed changing leaders in flight. Now that the State Conservation Department has built so many lakes and reclaimed so much of the old Kankakee swamp, more and more

POLES MOVED INTO SIBERIA FOR LABOR

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1 (U, P.)— The Polish Embassy said today that hundreds of thousands of persons have been moved from Russianoccupied Poland into Central Siberia to perform heavy outdoor labor for the Soviet Government. The Embassy said that most of the exiles are quartered in mud huts without adequate food or sanitary conditions. Most of them were compelled to leave Poland with only hand luggage, traveling in freight trains under heavy military guard. “The Polish exiles were immediately appointed to work in different kinds of manual labor depending

upon the locality as, for instance, :

clearing the woods of trees, roads

construction, stock breeding, chiefly =
