waistline The antennae are very
fragile. The hind wings are a satiny
brown with dark edges and fringes
on them. Six feet assist her, as she
must cling to the bark of the tree dur
ing the day. Her coloring blends in
with the bark so perfectly that you
do not realize that this enemy of yours
is waiting her chance to get your apples
first
When the temperature is about so
degree Fahrenheit the mother goes
from leaf to leaf placing her tiny white
pancake-looking eggs, so of them, on
the upper side of the leaf. When the
weather conditions are favorable the
eggs hatch in days. but they may
take 20. The youngster feeds lightly
on the leaf and soon makes his way
to the young apple. He chews right
into the fruit, entering by way Of the
calyx cup at the blossom end.
Once inside the fruit, he eats his
way to the core and helps himself to
the seeds. Often the apple will drop
to the ground. The dweller within
goes on growing. If the apple does
not drop the youngster will calmly
drop from the exit he has made and
does not seem at all disturbed by the
jolt. He mas his way to the trunk
of the tr>e. some sheltered spot under
the Loose bark, and spins a close-fit-
ting garment in which to rest and
continue his growing. If he belongs
to the first group of children he will
soon be a grown moth. If not he will
take things easy and remain in his
wrapper until the following Spring,
until the flowers of the tree have
dropped.
Now to bite into an apple and find
you have shipped off the head or
tail of a most active and surprised
coddling caterpillar is a most uncom-
Portable feeling for both parties. A
full grown caterpillar is very plump
and about three-quarters of an inch
long. His head is brown and he Is
pale flesh color. often deep pink.
He has six feet close to his head, eight
fleshy prolegs in the center of his
body and tail clasper on the last
segment. Ills jaws are strong and
his disposition is anything but gentle.
In England it is said that every
little worm has its own little apple.

Other fruits are attacked by these

On packing boxes and under loose bits

PLEASING THE MAN
BY CHLOE JAMESON,

by THIS time you no doubt have
- found that the meat course Of
assorted cold cuts, including such items
as baked ham, tongue, sliced roast
beef or chicken, makes quite hole In
the weekly budget, if INDUCED in
frequently.
We have it from several men that
they are not SO particular about always
having these costly meats. Some con-
fess now and then laundering for
oldfashicned lunch ham, or bologna
Of the better type. Another man says,
rather sheepishly: do you know a
house? It's pigs foot jelly. that comes
in Slices" Two others, racking their
brains for things they like in the cold
meat department, recall fondness for
goose liver Sausag e-"the large kind
with the little green things in it" the
pistachio nuts. we SUPPOSED.
These are all less expensive selections
than the old standbys we think OF
first. Why not try a different aSsort-
ment for a change?
Another suggestion is the mixed fish
tray for those who are fond CT sea
food land it's so good for you In
summer. Buy a jar of big shrimp,
jar of crabmeat and one of tuna (if
serving two or three use half the con-
tents Of each), and arrange in sections
on lovely chop dish. separating the
sections with small leaves of lettuce
in which are placed stuffed hard-boiled
eggs In the center of the plate set
small compot of mayonEaise. Next
day for luncheon you can make dish
of sea food au gratin with the fish
you saved out of the assortment: or
a delicious fish loaf, or fish chowder,

dish.
And here is scheme for the cold
meat dinner, which calls for only a
cupful of diced ham, chicken, tongue
or whatever is handy as the founda-
ton for fine meat salad, to which
you may add cold cooked peas, diced
carrots and chopped celery. Blend
with mayonnaise and serve in mound
on the chop dish, garnished with let
ture and sliced tomatoes. This is in
deed cold meat that costs little and
goes a long distance

before her real chance arrived and
how she turned her back on the black
days.
You listen, visioning determined,
aggressive creature of dominant, albeit
charming mien and then in comes
Sylvia-as softly feminine and as gra-
cious as the sweetheart of any modern
She is Just the sort of girl you'd
expect to sit down and exchange with
you the directions for making "a per-
fectly darling chicken mousse" In
fact, she actually did it, and Eere are
the directions:
Cold Chicken Mousse.
One cup hot chicken stock, three egg
yolks, one-quarter teaspoon salt, one
quarter teaspoon paprika, one tablespoon
granulated gelatin, one tablespoon cold
water, one-half cold cooked chicken,
white meat, chopped), one-half cup
blanched almonds, one cup heavy cream,
few grains cayenne.
Beat egg yolks slightly, add salt and
paprika. and pour over chicken stock
gradually. Cook over hot water until
mixture thickens. Add gelatin, soaked
in cold water, and when dissolved, strain
and add to chicken and almonds, finely
chopped. pounded and forced through a
sieve. Season highly with salt and
cayenne. Put in ice water until the
mixture thickens, then fold in cream,
which has been beaten until stiff. Turn
into mould and chill.
That is just the sort of dish she
likes to serve for Sunday Mite Supper,

together party of friends as jolly as
those that surround her in the house

Spoonfuls of corcstarch with one cup

hot mixture to the slightly beaten
yolks of two eggs, then add two ounces

return to the double boiler and cook

If the custard thickens before the
chocolate is thoroughly dissolved, re-
move from the ffe and beat with a

thine Out. "

"Home SO early? That's good. Now
eat an apple. change your clothes and
get right at your lessons"
"Oh, nom! Gee! Give us a break.
I've been in school since 8 o'clock"
Yes, yes, 1 know. Run ahead now.
Eat your apple and change your clothes
and get right to work. See how much
you can have done by the time your
father comes home"
But I want to play. Gee. can't a
fellow have any fun? What's the idea?"
Now, don't argue about 1t, George.
You know the days are short, and it's
coming on time for the regents. Don't
lose any time. Now go ahead and do
as tell YOU"
This sort oftthing is what sends boys
out of the house in a tearing rage,
drives them into saying things they do
not mean, sets them against their par
ents because they believe them to be
drivers who have no understanding, no
pity in their hearts.
Boys and girls who attend high
school have a long day. 1t is no easy
matter to sit hour after hour in school
engaged with this and that and the
other kind of book work. It is a strain
on a growing body. Relief must be af-
fcrded or the child will break nervouSly.
After school is dismissed there ought
to be time of freedom from direction.
The child ought to be allowed to choose
his own recreation-when that can be
done safely-and not be asked to work,
to run erran6s, to continue the drive
of the day Ee needs rest.
The best way to do is to schedule the
day SO that routine is established.
This routine provides for the large units
of work and play. the fixed hours for
meals, and the like. 1t leaves consid-
cradle leeway in the use of free time
before the evening meal.
How long should child work at
home work? That depends upon the
child. upon the kind of the work, upon
the daily schedule. The amount of
time spent upon homework should be
the time as adjusted to the needs of
the child. There is no sense in asking
a whole class to do the same work

every evening-some need that point,
some need another. All do not need
the same lesson, nor do they need to
spend the same amount of time upon it.
It is certainly not good management
that requires an "A" student IN Eng
lish to do IS sentences according to
the analysis scheme. Some children
need that lesson. 1t is mere than likely
that the "A" child does not. He needs
something else. Each should have his
own.
But what I am anxious about is that
each child have time out to rest. Time
out to remove the taste Of the dry
atmosphere of the class room out OF
his mouth. Time out to readjust him.

stretch and laugh and put his body
into a state of ease that will allow
