One finds it hard to believe that Mrs. 2. I.
Barnum's article, ''Moths of Modern Mar

March, is really the first she has published.
Her keen comment touches the very heart
of existing difficulties, and transforms an
old subject into one of fresh and genuine
interest. The timely suggestiveness of the
article is attracting wide attention.
