in our own area in spite of tlie elforts of conservationist and the general appeal of National Nature Week is deplorable. The th re a t and decline is undoubtedly against the will of the people. Why then do we tolerate this sort of thing, or why does such a tragic state of affairs continue. The answer is not so difficult.


* But before I go into the main


problem first let me explain why I consider all tliis to be of such vital importance to all who are interested in the preservation of our flora and fauna.


Several woeks ago I was


approa ched by several m em ­ bers of Cl i thcroc Na tu ra l is ts Society who, h a v in g in min d the e n thus ia sm ot the younge r mombe rs th o u g h t It would be an excel lent idea to go out in the c o u n t ry to obsorve the badgers.


I thought the idea admirable


and during the days which followed tlte suggestion I began to ponder on a suitable rendevous

would not have been difficult even within a few minutes of Clitheroe. By nibble in the Gis- burn area, a t Bolton by Bowlattd. and not far front Waddington the once occupied sets are now emptv. So realising tile diffi­ culty I a t once thought of the badger set in the Stonyhurst


district. This would be reasonably


handy for our purpose and my previous inquiries had shown the farmer, on whose land Die set was placed, was more interested in preservation th an extinction.


H O R R I F I E D


A few days a fte r my decision I chanced to meet a friend who


also knew of these badgers. I mentioned the idea to him and was horrified to learn th a t these had aJso been exterminated. Perhaps volt can imagine my reaction but I can assure you th a t no one can possibly have the slightest idea concerning my emotional revolt and disgust.


Now most readers will agree tile majority of naturalists are


tolerant people. We watch as vandals and hooligans slowly decimate the tilings we admire. We take a far too passive part. Most hate violence and hope th a t progress can lie main­ tained by reason.


However, following my observa­


tions over the years and in par­ ticular in recent times I am beginning to wonder if such methods will not be better by being replaced by a more active and forceful method. Several years ago 1 drew attention to the gross intolerance of certain people who thought badgers a danger to th e ir own particular interest. They were not farmers


but people concerned with the preservation of game. At th a t


time I thought their action dis­ gusting and primitive mainly because of an overwhelming volume of evidence front en­ lightened people who have proved the badger more benefi­ cial th an harmful. I also, a t th a t time, intimated th a t for a good many years it had been my policy in these columns to main­ ta in a feeling of tolerance no m a tte r how provocative these reckless people became.


Knowing my reactions to kill­


ing I would have thought it more discreet for these persons to be more understanding less a


few home tru th s were disclosed. I have refrained repeatedly from stirring up emotions regarding th e activities to which they sub­ scribe and now again what do we get in repayment for this tolerance? Obviosly some people are only concerned witli their own selfish interests. They are not. I am convinced, influenced either by The Duke of Edinburgh appeal or the preservation of anything save an ignorant belief of what they con­ sider harmful.


Y O U T H S E R V IC E What ever vour opinion such


actions are not in any way encouraging to these young people who are concerned with Hie preservation of wild life. Nor is it helpful to those of mature years wlto wish to encourage young people in things worthwhile. We already have an encouraging circle in and around Clithcroc. and 7.000 children joined tlie Wildlife Youth Service a month a fte r its inauguration. This being a National organi­ sation devoted to the study and conservation of all wild life, junior naturalists and conserva­ tion Corps' run for the Council of Nature arc increasing. A trend which will he aelaimed by all those who have any concent for progress and better be­ haviour. Can it be said th a t these barbarous a c t i o n s repeatedly taking place in our countryside by so-called responsible adults are an example or an encourage­ ment to these young people?


O f course we shal l no doubt


be a r al l sor ts of a rg umen ts put fo rwa rd conc erning the d a n g e r of badgers. But wh o on s earching the evidence, can


say th a t the y are h a rmfu l . Only a n ignorantous bur led amongst Vic to r ia n predudicc would accept such a sugges­ tion.


All tlie major evidence shows


the badger in a favourable light. Indeed If this were not so why do we find even Government authority advising th e Game Council th a t the badger presents no serious th re a t to game stocks. They even suggest It may be regarded as a useful auxiliary to ntan in keeping down other harmful creatures. Why then do these certain


people in our own area waste so much energy and resources in killing these creatures which do little harm. However they have decided on a pa th ' which I llnnlv believe will only help to focus public opinion on their ways. They are preparing the the public for a cry and demand against artificial game preserva­ tion. I t is as simple as that!

Bonfire night danger


rpUESDAY is bonfire night: I anil in keeping with tile rest,


of tile country, children and adults in the Clitheroe district., will enjoy the excitement and colour of the occasion. Bonfire night can be a happy


or tragic occasion. More th an 2.800 adults and


children received hospital tre a t­ ment for fireworks injuries, some of them severe, during the weeks before and a fte r Plot n ig h t last


year. For the past week or so, fire­


works have been let off, some beng discharged in the street,


which is illegal. Young people are usually the offenders, and they too are


most commonly the victims of accidents resulting from misuse. Sometimes they attempt, to


make their own fireworks, often with disastrous results. Already


this year two youths who explo­ ded home-made fireworks have j been maimed for life. Home­ made fireworks are never safe, however c a r e f u l l y they are handled. Pa ren ts should not give young


children money to buy fireworks, or chemicals to make t.hcir own. and they should supervise the letting-off of fireworks and the


lighting of bonfires. Shopkeepers are reminded th a t


it is an offence to sell fireworks to children under the age of 13. Fireworks th a t ore on sale arc


safe if correctly handled and stored. Accidents can be pre­ vented by taking proper precau­


tions. Before lighting fireworks read* ^


carefully the instructions on the I label: and never carry them in a pocket or store them other than in a closed drawer or box. Clitheroe Fire Brigade were


called out lo a bonfire in the Henthorn district on Friday afternoon.

with some alarm—is th e concen­ tration of all facilities in a number of l a r g e District General Hospitals. The construc­ tion of the new hospitals is planned to coincide with the e l imin a t io n of over 1,000 othe r hospitals .


A gigantic tidving-up operation


of this sort must naturally entail some degree of amalga­ mation and the medical profes­ sion in general welcomes the incorporation into the new hos­ pitals of o large number of specialist hospitals. But some 5C0 of the threatened hospitals, staffed, by General Practitioners —the modem counterparts of Cottage Hospitals—are, in fact, an integral p a r t of general prac­ tice: all of them came into being as a result of the enthsiasm of local doctors an d their patients. These hospitads are by no means outmoded nor are they old- fashioned. The mast important p a r t of th e ir function is th a t they made it possible fer the patient to be cared for by his own doctor, who. with the col­ laboration of visiting consul­ tants. can continue to maintain his clinical skill an d experience. About 5.00 G.P.’s enjoy th e faci­ lities of the small hospitals and there is not the s lightest possi­ bility of equivalent facilities becoming available in the new District Hospitals.
