mother wasp goes on hunting ex-
petition. In bringing the cicada to
the cell she frequently hoists her
victim laboriously up a tree, from
which she flies diagonally down to-
ward her burrow. Thus she saves
much time and energy, for dragging
a creature as large as a cicada
through the grass is a herculean
task even for so powerful wasp.
Usually, though not invariably,
second cicada is added to the first.
After the cicadas-still alive but
helpless-are stored safely in the
underground cell, the wasp places
an egg on the body of one of them
just under one of the middle legs,
then closes the cell with earth.
Weeks Food for the Grubs.
The egg matches in three days,
and the grub feeds on the cicadas
for little over a week. 1t then
makes a cocoon of earth, mixed
with enough silk to make it rather
dense, and spends the winter inside.
In the spring, after passing through
the pupa stage, the wasp digs its
way out of the ground.
The cicada-killers that you see
walking or flying about a grassy
slope are living evidence Of the nu-
merous tragedies that have taken
place beneath the sod.
Only the young of this wasp feed
on cicadas. The adults, as is the
case with nearly all the wasps, are
vegetarians. For many days after
emerging from the ground, the CT
cada-killers, indolent and peaceful,
wander ainlessly about, tapping up
nectar from the flowers.
They are especially fond of the
sap of certain trees. If truth must
be told, they much prefer this sap
after fermentation has transformed
it into more or less strong beer.
Idle ease, nectar, and beer satisfy
these wasps for few weeks. Dur
ing this time they display not the
slightest interest in cicadas. Then,
with the attainment of full bodily de-
velopment, the females somewhat
suddenly become demons Of dynam-
ic energy murderously inclined to-

crochet cotton used to- make the
sweater. You'll love this band
and-bow trimming the more you
wear your sweater.
The jacket-like sweater blouse
above to the left has that air of
sophisticated simplicity about it
that every woman versed in the art
of smart costuming covets. 1t is
knit of knit-cro-sheen in an open
work stitch interspersed with solid
blocks that gives sort of plaided
effect. This sweater is the type that
looks just as well when you remove
your jacket as it does with the
jacket on. Make it up in one of
the lovely new muted colors and
you will find it an Indispensable and
fattering accessory. The square
neck line is high-style feature. So
also are the crochet buttons up the
front. Most fashion reports have
much to say in regard to the flair
for buttons running to larger rather
than small this season.
With word emanating from Paris
that "it's year for sweaters in
versatile Styles" cardigans get
headline attention. Variety in car
digan styles is the new mandate,
but it must be variety without fus-
siness." A cardigan type that en-
bodies all. of Paris sweater die

lustrous mercerized cotton. Work
it up in contrast of your two

X Movie Lure
X March Comeback
x Bipg's Song
By Virginia Vale.

DERHAPS you,. the public,
i hadn't realized it, but you
have been staying away from
the movies in such stupendous
numbers that the motion pic
ture industry is about to spend
81, 100000 to lure you back into
the theaters again.
Producers, distributors and thea.
ter men will put up the money. And
you will get $250,0OO of it, my
friends. There will be a contest.
At present, although the rules have
not yet been decided on, it seems
likely that this contest will be in the
form of a questionable based on
pictures released between now and
October 81.
Booklets containing rules will be
issued only at theater box-offices.
Each contestant will have to answer
80 questions about 80 different pic
lures in order to qualify.
Half of that 81 900, 900 will be spent
on advertising in newspapers and
magazines.
Fredric March is going to try,
try again-and if he fails this time,
no doubt he'll keep on trying-to
make a comeback on the stage.
Last year he and his wife, Florence
Eldridge, backed a play that was
produced in New York, you'll recall,

can't have it. The
song is "Hail

dialogues between
Bing Crosby and
Ken Carpenter.
1t was written
especially for the
broadcasts, and
that's that, even
if it has become

and it failed-not because of their
performances, but just because it
wasn't an awfully good play.
If they can find play that they
like, they'll do it again, come
autumn. In the meantime, he's stor-
ing up more of what it takes to
produce plays by working in Hal
Roach's "There Goes My Heart"
and in another picture when that
one is finished.
1t looks as if MyrOn Selznick had
started something that may result
in our having better pictures. He
has formed a partnership with va
rious prominent actors, writer's and
directors-as the best theatrical
agent in Hollywood he knew all of
them-to make pictures, with
share of the pictures profits taking
the place Of salary. Ernst Lubitsch
Productions, Inc, is the first of
these producing units.
Under this arrangement, picture
will have to be good-or else!
The Stroud twins travelled a long
and winding road, 80 far as their
career was concerned, before they
reached those Sunday evening
broadcasts where they share honors
with Charlie Mccarthy. They be-
gan as acrobats with a circus; ran
away from home to do it. Then
they went into vaudeville, and
switched to dancing. They toured
this country, then Australia, New
Zealand and the South Seas before
returning to Broadway, and
switched their act again, this time
to the sort of thing you hear them
doing on the air.

Cerise Added to Popular
Pinks by Paris Stylist

Cerise is new step on the ladder
of pinks. A pleasant variation of
the more purplish fuchsia shade.
the cerise is used by Lelong for a
flowing sash tying around a deep
blue evening gown with a halter
neck.
And the same vivid shade is the
background for dainty white-dotted
Swiss, which forms the bodice for a
bouffant white tulle skirt. The bod
ice is draped up and over the right
shoulder but comes under the left
arm, thus leaving the left shoulder
strapless, while the right is well
covered.

Wdsps and Hornets Are Efficient
DestroYers Of Our Insect Pests

Prepared by National Geographic Society.
Washington, D. C.-WNU Service.
CTINGS have a high edu-
cational value. After one
~ or two experiences with
these concealed weapons, the
personality of the little sting
wielders is firmly impressed
upon you.
It is quite proper to regard the
wasps and hornets with respect, as
they insist you shall. But do not
let their potent personalities preju-
dice you against them. For it is
within this group, taken in the
broadest sense, that is found the
cleverest and most ingenious of all
the insects, as well as the most
efficient and destructive enemies of
our insect pests.
: The cleverness and ingenuity of
wasps take numerous forms. Each
of the many thousands of different
kinds has it's own little specially
which differs more or less from that
of every other kind. Among these
specialties few are more fascinating
than those of the various digger
wasps that burrow in the ground
and lay up in little chambers food
upon which their young subsist.
Look closely into the habits of
some of the common digger wasps
and see what they are doing in that
sultry season when you can think
only of vacation, for it is then that
they display the greatest energy.
Familiar to everyone in the hot,
still. midsummer days is the mo-
notonous shrill song of the cicada.
Hornets Prey on Cicadas.
Once in a while one of these mo-
notonous trills stops suddenly. You
hear discordant shrek that star
ties yJu for moment. Then all is
the same again-the heat and the
interminable trills Of the cicadas.
What has happened? One Of Ma
lures little tragedies. A cicada has
been surprised by a cicada-killer,
has fed shrieking away, and in all
probability has been caught and
stung, not to death, but into a state
of complete helplessness.
The cicada-killer is one OF the
largest and most conspicuous, as
well as one of the commonest, Of
burrowing wasps. To many people
it is known as hornet-in fact, the
homeland is much feared. But it
is not at all aggressive. 1t resents
undue familiarity. of course, but it's
nature is wholly peaceful-except
when cicadas are concerned.
Cicadas are it's only prey. Some
times you see it flying about tree,
hunting for victim up among the
branches, or pursuing cicada at
high speed through the air. But it is
usually noticed dragging a cicada,
often much larger than itself, along
the ground on the way to its burrow.
This nursery is commonly made
in the higher and drier portions of

right in the Illustration, for of course
you will be wanting to have it ready
to wear with the new fall suit. The
other two sweaters in the picture
are knitted.
We agree with you, this trio of
handmade sweaters certainly have
chic and charm about them that
is far beyond the ordinary. Not
that there is anything complicated
about the knitting and, crocheting
of 'em, for each of the models is
really very simple to make.

mostly everything is being zippered
among the new fashions that can

The band-and-bo trim that gives
such dainty feminine detail to the
sweater pictured above to the right
in the group is definitely new. 1t
affords a grand opportunity to carry
out a two-color scheme which is
something to take note of, ,consid-
ering that bicolor treatments are
highly important in the current
stylizing program. The three bands
of contrasting color are fastened
with bows made of tufts of fringe
formed of the identical mercerized

Seek Not to Avoid Labor

1t is surprising how men will fg-
ure and scheme and work to escape
legitimate labor and to sidestep re-
sponsibility. Not all men, of course,
but some men. 1t is strange that
such can not see they are putting
in more energy to escape a task
than would be required to do it.

ignorance is at the top of it. Strug-

nations to "curb bloody profits
from war trade" and prevent the
United States from being drawn

REBELS TRAP
LOST DIVISION
10000 Declared Driven
Into Pocket; Firing
Heard in France

HENDAYE. FRANCO, SPAN
ISH FRONTIER. June Is. CUP
The roar of Spanish insurgent ar
tillery was heard on the French
side of the border yesterday as
General Juan Solchaga's insurgent
troops drove 10000 soldiers of the
43rd loyalist ''Lost Division" into
a pocket of the Bielsa valley.
The isolated loyalists, holding
out in the Pyrenees mountains
since April 6 when they were cut
off from their bases, gained a brief
respite, however, when rain, snow
and hail slowed down Solchaga's
enlightenment.
A total of 165 wounded loyalist
militiamen and civilians crossed
the mountainous frontier into
France last night, bringing with
them 600 sheep.
About 5000 of the loyalists
held out stubbornly around Rieu-
magou Hill, a short distance from
the border, as the insurgents slow
ly reduced the Bielsa pocket.
Insurgents along the frontier
believed the "lost division" would
be unable to hold out more than
four days longer.
Frontier dispatches said that the
government forces were retreat
ing toward the border, attempting
to reach French soil before the
insurgents seize Bielsa in the up
per Cinca valley and cut off all
communication and supplies.
Solchaga's Navarrese already
have cut off the "lost divisions "
escape into France through the
Rio Cinqueta mountain passes.
More than 40 bombing and ma
chine-gunning planes and large
artillery units aided the national
lists in driving the loyalists from
the ragged mountain sides ano
gulleys studded with machine gun
nests.
