Yet all the rats together steel an- nually to the extent of $200,003000. No rat gives back, in any form of service the value of his theft. He is only and solely a pest. No‘hoarder steals from this country’s food supply enough to make a differ- ence in the total. Yet enough hozrders could play havoc with our food supply, defeat the Allies, and wound the honor of a country that has said it will keep elllough at home to feed its own peo- ple. The hoarder does not give back, in any. form of patriotism, the value of his theft.

There is hardly any doubt now that Norwich will go over the top and for the third time the city will not be lacking in patriotism. But should Norwich be satisfied just to clear the top? . “Over There” when the boys get over the top, they have just begun and No Man’s Land is in front of them and the enemy trenches are to be reached. ‘We are backing those boys. So don't let Norwich just go over the top. but go with the boys across No Man’s Land into the enemy trenches.

It is, however, not strictly correct to speak of the “ice age” or the “glacial epoch,” there have been many of them. It is now known that even this latest or Pleistocene glacial. epoch had several important subdivisions, and it appears that in the Rocky Mountain region the time between the glacial subepochs was sg long as to permit great changes tains, due. to a wearing down D erosion.
