A human weasel is a shifty,
slinking, chinless weakling who
takes by unlawful craftiness what
he cannot gain by intelligence,
pluck, hard work and personal
integrity. All of this describes
not the real weasel, but his com-
plete antitlmsis.
There is nothing shifty abont
the weasel. He is as direct as a
bullet. Yet you never heal; any-
one speak a kind word in his
'behalf. This small caxnivore is
always pictured as a vile satanic
killer, sly, sneaky, without morals,
scruples or self respect.
But to Byron Dalrymple, once a
trapper, the weasel has many
characteristics of which humans
could be very proud, if they had
them to his degree. He is
equipped with a high-speed meta-
bolism which keeps him constantly
restive, always on the move.
Coupled with this tremendous en-
ergy arc one of the most alert
and agile intelligence in wildlife.
matchless fearlessness and deter-
ruination, lightning physical agil-
ity, and the most amazing
strength per unit of weight you
will find in mammals.
The weasel is one of the world's
smallest carnivores, yet probably
nature's most efficient killer. In
his every daily act he is, next to
the shrew, the most intense of all
mammals. We call this intensity
of movement and purpose ferocity,
but from the weasel's viewpoint, it
is nothing more than a superior
development in relation to condi-
tions of his environment.
--Iis unusual strength, plus his
ot?Ier qualities enable him to cope
with creatures outweighing him 20
and more times. To muscular
power he adds an expert surgeon's
knowledge of the most deadly
holds known to any rough-and-
tumble fighter. Artery holds. And,
knowing these, he never gambles
on using less effective ones.
The weasel must dart in and
sink his razor-sbarp de@tal scal-
pels in the fatal place with one
I lightning thrust. And he must
know the physiology and anato-

Many United States residents
who served during World War II
with the Canadian armed forces
have not yet applied for certain
benefits available to them, the
(2Chadian Department of Veterans
Affairs reports.
The benefits are not new, Can-
adian government officials point
out, and are available only to
World War II veterans who have
not obtained them in the past.
The benefits consist of war
service gratuities and reestablish-
ment credit.
War service gratuity amounts
to $7.50 for each 30 days of serv-
ice, with an additional 25 cents
for each day overseas plus seven
days pay and allowances of rank
for each six months of overseas
duty.
