The men of Pennsylvania are going to
vindicate the seven years labor of the
suffragists of the state by giving them
the vote next fall Conditions are more
propitious here than In any OF the other
Eastern States in which the question or

people this year and failure at the fall

PROTECT US
BY EAGLE SCOUT HENRY E.
KhI0JUT TONT

Assistant Scoutmaster Bryn Mnwr Troop 1 and
Philadelphia Troop Q.
You are walking along a path in the
country and see a snake. A wave OF dis
gnst and hatred surges over you and
you pick UP the nearest weapon-stlck or
stone-and kill the snake. Scouts, in do
ing this you are doing as much harm as
If you were killing robin or a chicka-
dee.
There are but four species of poisonous
snakes in the United States, of which
two-the water moccasin and the coral
snake-are not known north OF the Dis
NAL Swamp of Virginia. OF the other
two. the rattlesnake needs no descrip-
tion, Everybody recognizes II at once
by the horny appendage or rattle on it's
tail. The copperhead, once seen, Is never
mistaken. 1t grows to length of about
four feet and has a head somewhat
broader at the base than that of q harm
less SNAKE colored like bright, new
copper cent This is what gives It its
name. The body Is n trife darker than
It's head, and has large diamond shaped
markings OF rusty black down tho
back.
These two snakes. the only two in this
vicinity which are harmful to man, have
two characteristics which distinguish
them at glance from the harmless
snakes-a pit in the head half way be-
tween the eye and the nostril, and tho
eyes, which are elllptical, like those of
cat. The eyes of harmless snakes are
perfectly round.
All other snakes are of incaieulable
value to the farmer and to mankind IN
general. The king snake is the deadly
enemy of all poisonous snakes. killink and
eating them wherever he comes across
them. The blacksnake lives almost en-
tlrely on field mice, house mice, rats and
English sparrows-all pests. The water
snake. thought by many to be the deadly
water moccasin, is harmless and lives on
fish. frogs and tadpoles. The garter snake
and other small ground snakes live on in
sects maggots. larvae and flies.
True, snake will bite when cornered
but will not any animal defend itself when
attacked? When we see bird defending
its nest we admire it's pluck; but when we
see snake defending itself we think of
its defense only as an evidence of its
viciousness 1t strikes and bites, but its |
bite is almost harmless; 1t is often so
weak that 1t falls to penetrate tho skin. |
The snake asks only to be left In peace
VIII you ruthlessly and needlessly kill |
one of your best friends, the enemy of |
some of our worst pests, the next time |
you meet him in the country? Overcome |
the innate horror of the snake which Is |
common to every one and consider him |
not as loathaome, crawling thing, but |
as living, breathing creature. You vio-
late the sixth point of our laws as much
by killing harmless snake as you do by
killing robin or a chickadee. The harm
less snake pleads with you not for respect
or love, but for a square deal. Scouts,
will You give It to him?
