The little mother makes the house
tidy and often takes the fine hairs
from her own body to line the cradle
for the eggs. The little home Is half
filled with them. After so much exer-

walks to the door and drops to the
ground and dies. The eggs in their
coy nest are rocked about by the
Winter winds Late in the Spring when
the tender leaves begin to come they
will hatch into bagworms and begin at

Forewarned is forearmed. In August

When the tree is bare the enemy is

attached to the twigs and burn them
In this way we can destroy thousands

THE BAGWORM,
Family Psychidae

TINE bagworm children are clever
dressmakerS, they take after
their parents They even line
i their coats with silk-put in a
gore or two when the garment
becomes too snug and trim the out
side of their coats so cleverly with
twigs and leaves that their enemies can
not find them
The little bagworm has a very hard
head and neck, six strong claw-tipped
feet, mighty jaws for cutting and a
very tender "tummy." When the young
bagworm walks out of the old home in
search Of food she soon realizes that
something must be done to protect
herself from sharp branches and rough
objects. Eating her fill of tender leaves
she spins lot of silk. Reaching out
for twigs, bits of leaves and bark, she
sews them together until the mate
rial stitched is about the length of her
body. She fastens the edges together
and turns Somersault into the collar.
WheW! That was some accomplish
ment. From now on the collar Is added
to until the garment is completed and
the lower edge Is sewed up. She now
has a quilted coat within and an
armored one without. Looking at what
you suppose is small pile of twigs,
you Will see little head poke out and
the whole mass move slowly before you.
When it is time for the bagworm to
cast her skins, she will enter her house
and close the front door with cur
tain of silk. She has tiny opening
in the door where she pushes out the
four discarded skins Late in August
the occupant of the bag, now a larva,
completes its growth, secures the bag
to q twig, adds fresh layers Of silk
to the lining and within this cocoon
facing downward, transforms into a
pupa. In three weeks, the full-grown
winged male works his way out of his
curtained door, leaving the chrysalis
shell hanging to the old home. Flying
about he looks for the young lady bag

Nancy realized when she stopped to
think about it that children's eyes are
not ready, the muscles are not suf-

on material requiring close application.
Even sewing when taught to children
in the lower grades in school Is Of a
type which calls for heavy thread and
big stitches Forcing anything Is bad,
but treating children's eyes as If they
belonged to grown-ups is frequently
tragic.

Joan was sitting in large chair en-
broidering a square for q quilt for her
own bed. Aunt Nancy had demurred,
but Joan wanted to do what the Lacey
girls were doing. Nancy remembered
one Summer when she was about 8.
She, too, had been all enthusiasm. She
was going to embroider a cover for the
dining room table. That cover had been
started but never finished. Nancy hoped
that Joans enthusiasm would peter out
like her own had done. But 1t was
