NEW SPECIES OF

FLY In THE CITY

A strange species OF NY has ap-
peared in Wilmington. Il Is not I'M

longer. although its body Is about the
same size as the housely. It's legs
are like those of mosquito. IN

one entomclogist ar sort OF a
grand d-daddy-ioag-legs hy The new
insect has been seen ia several sec
tons of the city. and was discovered
because of his long legs producing
a ucklish sensation on more than
one hand. arm or neck
Some local "bugologists" are trying
10 ind out whether the new iiy is Of
the species that the Federal goyern-
ment has turned loose TO try to eXter-
inmate the mosquito II il Is Of that
brand OF mosquito-eating insect il
certainly will be welcomed In VIII
minRion. Many residents would rath-
or take a chance with a tickle-footed
fly than with the voracious 'skeeters
that invade the city from New Jersey
All mosquitoes, even though they be
found In Bermuda or IN Florida, are
Jersey skceters, according to popular
fiction.
Some of those who have discovered The
long legged fly are now trying TO find
out whether the new bug imported from
China TO war on the mosquito pest has
pouncod upon Wilmington. This city
has many bugs. and probably can find
room for the Chinese bug, too.
The insect, the praying mantis, would
rather have a nice mess of mosquitoes
