SAID TO FEED on INSECTS
Pitcher Plant Known to Scientists az
One Of the Wonders Of the veoe-
table Kingdom.

The pitcher plant is one OF the
freaks Of plant life. It grows In
swampy lands and is well known In
Canada. The flowers, touched with
beautiful delicate tints, are priced
for decorative purposes. But the won'
der, Of the pitcher plant is its leaves.
They are green, water-holding pitch.
ers, beautifully veined with red and
purple, With considerable variation In
form. During rainfa1ls they are filled
with water. This largely evaporates,
leaving the receptacle half full. Elk
ternally these cups are smooth, while
internally they are lined with me brfs'
ties pointing downward There is also
q sticky, sugary sort Of semi 0uid sub
stance to be found around the inner
margin Of the bowl or pitcher. This
arrangement not only attracts a large
number of tiny insects, but they are
90 eager to feed ON the sugary sub
stance that not a few tumble into the
water below and die there. They can
not fly out, for the lines Of fight would
be practically vertical, while hun
dreds Of little bristles confronting
them prevent escape over the surface
by walking out. Many believe that
the plant, through its leaves, absofDs
the digestive parts Of thebe insects,
and that they thus contribute to lts
nutrition; In other words, that the
pitcher plant to this extent is one Of
the carntvores Of the vegetable king

MAKE GOOD ON THIS PROMISE.

No truer statement than "all work
and no play makes Jack a dull boy'
ever was conceived. Conversely, all
play and no work frequently makes
Jack quite bad boy and poor citi-
zen. The realization of a happy med
ium between the extremes Of all work
and all play, however, is very likely to
make Of Jack a fine boy who will work
we'll and at the same time benefit by
the proportion Of play time that is his
share.
Intensive study Of the boy problem
by leaders of the Boy Scout Movement
has determined how much work and how
much play is good for Jack; and also
has shown how to make boy-work so
attractive that it will seem like play.
The result is all for good citizenship.
It is a safe prediction that the boys
of the present generation who have had
the benefit of boy scout training WILL
twenty years from now, as a result Of
this training, do their work with less
effort than the present generation and
with greater efficiency in the main. :
There are in this country today, no
doubt, millions of men who in their
youth said that when they grew up they
would do something to make it easier
for boys to prepare themselves for earn
ing a living and exercising the duties
of citizenship. These men now have a
great opportunity to make good on that
promise. The Boy Scouts of America is
asking for one million associate men,
bers omen and womsn) at minimum
of $1.OO each-as much more as anyone
desires to pay-in order to greatly ex-
tend benefits Of its program for boys.
The campaign for this one million mem
bers will close on June II. Between
now and that date there will be numer-
GUS opportunities for everyone who
wants to give the boys Of America a
mighty lift.
Little Falls is to be thoroughly can
vassed this week by the block workers
of the Women's Council Of Defense.
Have dollar handy and help Little
Falls get its quota fright off the reel. -
