Is rather difficult at first to know
where the sepals end and the stamens
begin, which are petals, which are
sepals.
BY assuming the function Of petals,
the brightly colored sepals attract the
attention Of their important partners,
the insects. You should see the
crowds of hungry guests, not polite,
but rather boorish toward each ether.
The first ones that answer the invita-
tion seem to be the beetles. They
push and crowd in as the sepals be-
gin to open. The star-like disc Is
very sticky. The guests hsve brought
with them pollen grains from other
plants, and leave them with the
younger hostess as they depart.
In watching the young stigma that
is ready and waiting for the valuable
pollen to be brought from another
plant, you can see why the guests
cannot make their call upon the blos-
som except they crawl over the large,
sticky stigma. 1t is at this time that
the anthers are closed to prevent self
fertilization.
When the first important guests
have come and played their part. the
flower is liberal with her pollen, to be
sent to neighbors and shared with the
guests. The countless anthers are
covered with golden grains. Insect
visitors come in great numbers. Here
you will have the industrious little
bees. who are seeking nectar and pol
len to knead into bee bread for their
babies.
Look carefully at the blossom, "
you see strengthening loops of yel-
low within the bowl of an open bios
som. Perhaps you will even see the
manufacturer Of these ribbons at
work. She Is dainty little beetle,
Donacia by name, who is a trespasser.
She consumes the stamens and petals
and accomplishes woe and destruction
for the pond lily.
Do you remember Longfellow's
comparison Of Hiawatha's canoe with
the spatterdock?

~ USPICION is like a little seed
planted in fertile soil. It has a
way Of growing with no SEEM
~ ing cause for it to do so. Little
Miss Swiftly, the smart young Fox,
was filled with suspicion as she
opened up the passage to the back
door of her home, and all the time
she didn't know just why she was
suspicious. She knew that some one
had been around her front doorway
but that thing had happened before
and she had not been suspicious. This
time, however, she had feeling that
something was wrong and as she
worked to open that back passage
that feeling grew.
At last she poked her head out Of
the back door. 1t was we'll hidden,
was that back entrance. A lot Of
ferns grew around 1t and hung over
it. Little Miss Swiftly nodded approx
ingly.
THE Chuck that made this knew
what he was about" said she to her
self. II must take care not to dis
turb these ferns any more than Is
necessary In going and coming. I
won't use this back door any more
than I have to-"
She crept out from among the
ferns and then carefully made her
way around to a place where she
could see her front door, with its big
sandy doorstep. 1t looked all right,
just as it had looked all right inside.
But as she sat studying it. it gradu-
ally came to her that she missed
something. Yes, sir, she missed some
thing. What she missed were foot
steps in the sand-her own footsteps.
That sand right at the entrance was
very smooth. There wasn't q single
footstep in it. Still it looked per-
fectly safe and innocent. Sand
couldn't hurt anybody, and there was
nothing there but sand.
Little Miss Swiftly started down one
Of her favorite paths. Abruptly she

at o point where II she had taken
one more step she would have put her
foot in cunningly hidden wicked
steel trap.
Why she had stopped right there
Little Miss Swiftly didn't know her
self. It was just that growing fear
that all was not as 1t should be that
caused her to stop. Presently she
turned and trotted the other way.
She was using her nose now to try
to pick UP the scent of that man.
She followed it down to the edge of
the pasture. 1t led out across the
field toward the house where she
knew men folk lived.
"One Of them has been up here
around my home, and I don't like It,"
said Little Miss Swiftly to herself. ut
may be all right, but I have a feel
ing that 1t isn't. I wonder what he
came up here for. My, those hens
over there look tempting! I'd like an
other one of them. I would so, but
guess I'd better leave them alone. I
wonder II my taking those hens had
anything to do with this man scent
around my home"
This was new idea. The more she
thought about 1t the more it grew.
She began to wish she had left those
hens alone. You see. as I have told
you before, Little Miss Swiftly was q
smart young Fox. She started back
home, but she didn't take her usual
path, the one in which the trap was
set, nor did she try to enter by the
front door. She went in the back
way.
II know there's nothing wrong
about this" thought she, but I don't
know that there's nothing wrong
about the front way. I guess the wise
thing is always to do the thing that
you know Is safe

championship, following his de-

spectators at the Red Birds Sta

Employing a series of full Mel
sons, which held Ali Baba at bay
throughout the duration of the
match, Marshall crashed through
with a high body slam and cross
body pin to win after 1920 of
hard-fought wrestling.
Marshall come out strong at the
opening gong, and at no time dur
ing the bout was he in danger.
His early lead, acquired by body
slams and repeated ruShes, slowed
the pace of the former titleholder.
Ala Baba's famed body scissors
only once caused Marshall any
serious degree of concern, but the
new champion broke loose after
Referee Billy Thorn, Indiana Uni
verSity wrestling coach, had count
ed one. MarShall's constant ag-
gressiveness, topped off by his

about Ali Baba'S downfall, and
