their doorways, Mother began to take
him to the apiary to watch the bees.
She taught him to stay a little dis
lance away, never to throw gravel
or a rock at the boxes and to make
no loud noises.
She told him the bees were like
people in many ways: they had regu-
lar work to do, and they did not like
to be disturbed.
She showed him the workers COM
ing and going and the guards at the
door to keep robber bees away. In
his own flower garden she showed
him bees loading their hind-leg
pockets with yellow pollen dust from
the centers of the flowers.
What do they use that yellow
dust for?"
ITO make beebread. They mix it
with honey to feed the baby bees"
Buddy wanted to know about baby
bees. "How big are they? What do
they come FROM"
Different Sizes" he was told.
"They come from little white eggs"
81 want to see them," he said.
every day I want to see the baby
bees"
Sister made him a bee bonnet. It
was fashioned from one of his own
straw hats, a strip of wire net being
fashioned tightly around the rim, and
a piece of mosquito net sewed on the
edge of the screen. Brother Reg
found him a pair of overalls big
enough to go over his own clothes.
Mother put on her own bee outfit
and provided herself with a smoker.
She put gloves on Buddy, but she
said, 'The bees know me, and they
do not sting me any more, so I need
no gloves"
The other children said, 1--WE will
tuck the mosquito net in at your
neck, Buddy, and tie strings around
the legs of your overalls so no bee
can crawl up and sting you. Do not
be afraid, Buddy. Mother will show
you. She showed US"
Then Mother took Buddy to the
apiary. She had the smoker in her
hand and she puffed a few puffs of
smoke into the hive. The bees had
been making a loud buzzing, but
after the smoke entered the hive,
they became very quiet and stopped
coming and going.
Mother opened the box, Buddy
standing as close as he could, not at
all afraid.
On the big combs the golden bees
crept slowly around. To Buddy they
looked beautiful.
In the hive that Mother opened
were all the different kinds of bees.
She took out a comb and showed
Buddy that every waxen cell had a
little white egg in it, standing on
its end. She took another and showed
him that what had been an egg was
now a tiny white worm, curled in
the bottom of the cell. In the third
comb she showed him bigger baby
bees; now they were white worms
that filled the bottom Of the cell.
After that, the worms were still
bigger, and filled the cell nearly to
the top. Then she showed him the
cells sealed tight with wax, where
the babies would change from worms
to real little bees. Then she found 6
5 comb Matching, and there she showed
him the greyish, fuzzy little bees
creeping slowly around, with nurse
+, bees to feed them.
"Do you want to see more, Bud
dy?" she asked.

about this for a long timel"

by Young Republicans
in National Contest.

A Nationwide oratorical contest for
,oung Republicans, with prize money
\otaling $4,000, will begin in October,
Donald w. Hornbeck, chairman Of the
.Toung Republican National Fedora
ion, announced today.
The contest is sponsored by the fed
Grafton and the Republican National
Committee to inspire enthusiasm for
and greater understanding of funda-
mental principles under the guidance
OF the Republican party and to stimu-
late the interest of the youth of this
country in Republican and true Amer
tcan principles" Mr.. Hornbeck said.
The contest is open to members and
associate members of Young Repub-
lican Clubs between 16 and "a years
of age Beginning October 3, county,

Eight Regions to Compete Here.
Winners of the county contests will
participate in the congressional dis
trict contests and so on until only the
winners in eight regional districts are
left to compete in Washington.
John Hamilton, chairman Of the
Republican National Committee, said
today: There is no better way for
the youth of this country to obtain a
clear understanding of the vital and
fundamental issues at stake in this
years campaign than through the
preparation and delivery of carefully
thought-out speeches dealing with
these issues"
The hope of America is in its
youth" he continued. Unfortunate
ly, I fear that unless the present trend
in government is soon reversed, the
net result will be to the detriment of
those now approaching their majori-
ties and in their early manhood and
womanhood. Neither the youth of to-
day nor their parents can view without
misgivings the crushing burden of pub
lie debt that is being piled up for
future generations to pay and the con-
slant trend toward contraction Of
all agriculture and industry. thus di-
mlnishing the opportunities for en-
ployment."

To Woman Voters.

Senator Claude Pepper OF Florida
explained to members Of the National
Woman's Democratic Club at a dinner
meeting yesterday at the clubhouse
why the Democratic party appeals es-
pecially to women.
Like the Statue Of Liberty" he said,
women always hold torch aloft, the
torch OF the new freedom. They In
evitably stand for high cultural and
moral goals and these are being fur
thered by the Democratic party"
He cited the social and health legis-
lation of the present administration
as measures in which women are es-
pecially concerned as we'll as the at
tention that has been given to cultural
improvement In this connection he
called attention to the bill for the
creation of a bureau of fine arts which
he is sponsoring, saying that 1t was
lin keeping with the cultural aims Of
the administration"
The genius of the Roosevelt ad-
ministration lies in holding q course
towards idealism. that means so little
to the small mind or the sordid heart -
he told his audience.
Senator Pepper was introduced by
Mrs w. w. Hubbard, president Of the
club, Other guests at the speakers
table were Mrs Pepper. Emily Newell
