his communistic errand.
But bees, one must remember, have
heavy bodies and relatively small wings.
In the rarefied air of mountain heights
they can't manage to support themselves
i'm the most literal sense. Hence their
place in these high stations of the world is
taken by the gay and airy butterflies,
which have lighter bodies and a much big
ger expanse of wing area to buoy them up.
In the valleys and plains the bee competes
at an advantage with the butterflies for all
the sweets of life, but in the broad subgla-
cial belt on the mountain sides the butter
flies in turn have things all their own way.
They fit about like monarchs of all they
survey, without rival in the world TO dis
pute their supremacy.-Popular Science
