9—' Nature's Balance : Kestrels and Mice'
C. C. GADDUM
Today the following points will be discussed and explained by Mr. C. C. Gaddum : (a) What is meant by the ' Balance of Nature '-every animal is preyed upon by some other animal, e.g., kestrels feed on field mice, thus preventing an increase in their numbers ; (b) The upsetting of the balance of nature by man, either deliberately or from ignorance, i.e., the dangers both of killing off animals and of introducing new animals into a country where there are no animals which will keep them in check, e.g., the killing of kestrels (with the resulting increase of mice), and the introduction of rabbits into Australia.
In order to make the talk more interesting for the pupils, teachers are advised to have illustrations of a kestrel and a field mouse, and also of a sand-eel mackerel, and porpoise. It is essential that the last three should be exhibited in the order just given.

Max Kowalski was born in Poland on August 10, 1882. When a little child he went to Germany, and was educated at the Gymnasium of Frankfort-am-Main. On leaving the Gymnasium he devoted himself to the study of law, which he completed at the Universities of Heidelberg, Berlin and Marburg. His favourite pastime throughout this period was music, and after having taught himself, to a certain extent, the theory of music, he became a pupil of the composer Bernhard Sekles in Frankfort, with whom he studied theory and composition.
At the present time Kowalski is living in Frankfort. Many of his songs are in the repertoire of most of the leading German Lieder singers of today.
