OUR FRIEND, THE LADY BIRD
Red Coated Beetle Is One of Few Insect Tribes
That Are True Allies to Man.

" HAVE been a lifelong friend
of the lady-beetle or lady
Il bird, and / am glad that her
merits have been so conspicuously
recognized by the entomologists
Of the American Museum of
Natural History, where they have
opened an exhibit" of a realistic
character, revealing the life his

is the scientific name of these
beautiful little beetles. some of

HOUSEWIVES dressed in close-fitting
brilliantly colored calico gowns
covered with big. round dots.
There is something so bright,
active and cordial in the appear
ance of a lady-beetle that she
makes friends wherever she goes.
People who would not stay in
the same room with a spider, will
pet a lady-beetle as they would
a toy dog-if she allows it, which
she seldom does. She is too ac-
tive and busy to endure the frills
of anity.
Among the vast horde Of the
insect tribes-400.000 described
species-the lady-beetle is one of
the few that are truly allies of
man. One might imagine that for
some mysterious reason. urged
by some pulse of elective affin-
ity," she really likes him, and so
fights for his interests against
the constantly growing encroach-
ments Of her predatory fellows of
the six-legged world.
Appreciation in Rhyme.
This evident friendliness OF
the lady.beetle is no new discov-
cry of the entomologists. It is
traditional and historical. 1t long
ago entered the realm of popular
poetry. where the ''lady-bird," in
her dotted robes, has from I'M

"Lady-bird! Lady-bird!
Fly away home!
Your house is on fire!
Your children do roam!-
Except Little Nan. who sits in

Weaving gold laces as fast as
she can"
This nursery rhyme, according
to Doctor Frank l.. Lutz, of the
museum, had it's birth in the old
country. where. as he tells in
his book on insects, when they
blurred the hop vines after the
gathering, the vines were found
full Of Coccinellid children" to-
gether with aphids, or plant lice,
on which the beetles had been
feeding, and the rhyme no doubt
expressed the kindly feeling of
the harvesters toward their little
friends, to whom they would will
ingly have extended warning to
save their lives. Doctor Lutz ex-
plains that Little Nan" repre-

1t may be hard to find such friend, but do not be dis

You are friendly toward many men, but you know that

Therefore you are not deserving of strong friendship
since you would not be willing to reciprocate without
reservations.
Isn't it true that you desire good friend more from

what you might give to that friend.
