Field Trips In Retrospect

10 start the year right Miss Mar
kus took both sections of her biology
class to visit Peter Huchalas apiary.
Mr. HGchala has made the study of
bees his hobby for seventeen years
and has learned much about their
habits, classes, and work. This trip,
in September, was one of the many
that the biology classes have enjoyed
making to Mr.. Huchalas farm for
many years.
One day last fall the class spent
a pleasant afternoon watching the
many types of birds in Martins
Bird Farm" and learned a great
deal from Victor Bakers explain
atoms.
The trip to the fish hatchery was
antique apprehension most of the
class and Mr.. Caldwell proved a
very capable instructor. The classes
returned with their minds filled
with new technical terms and the
trip was helpful to the class in
their work.
Another unusual trip was made
to the S. S. Nichols farm where the
biology students had their first
glimpse of registered livestock. Mr..
Nichols showed the class the books
in which the marking of each calf
are recorded and the milk house
where the milk is cared for.
The most recent field trip was
the trip to the Libby Greenhouse
where Mr.. Pike related stories of
his childhood that showed his love
for growing beautiful plants, and
Mrs. Peterson showed the class the
various plants then in bloom.
The instructor and the biology
students appreciate the courtesy and
kindness shown them by the owners
and supervisors of the several places
they are allowed to visit, as the sue
cess of these visits is largely due to
the spirit of cooperation shown by
these people.

trips on the sightseeing buses
and at least saw the outsideS OF the
imposing structures erected about
the enormous grounds. And after
several members of the party boasted
of their luck in including SO many
interesting features of the fair in
their itineraries Miss Bloom made
her classic remark: We'll you may
brag about your success in seeing
the crown Jewels. the garden OF
flowers, the Perisphere, the Trylon
and all. Well, mother and are,
feel sure, the only members of this
party to actually get into the 81
Varieties Building. And this is
something we have on you all even
if it was the only exhibition we
reached"
Stories like this went far into the
night and as conversation tapered
off. regardless of whether one ac-
tually was an eyewitness when the
tales were exchanged, one had
rather comprehensive idea of the
fair. and so, perhaps. the separation
of the congressional body was one
of those its an i'll wind"
The accomplished and gifted
daughter Of Representative and Mrs.
Bloom further entertained some of
her fathers delegation with her
charming voice. And as one anus
ingly put in, she sang in Philadel-
phia, Wilmington, Baltimore, Laurel,
Havre de Grace, and as the train
made its way into the Capital. Miss
Bloom was not alone in the song
recital, for the entertaining and
clever executive assistant to the At
torney General. Mr.. Ugo Carrusi,
sang songs of Italy, his native land.
The repertoire of the singers ranged
from folk songs to grand opera, with
Mr.. Carrusi giving graphic imi-
tationS of that other great Italian
singer with similar name.

Collectors have been invited to
study the sizes of the stamps of the
National Park series. William w.
Wylie reports that close examina-
ton will show that they differ in
length and width. Some specimens
are as much as a tenth of an inch
shorter or narrower than others.
The explanation probably is that
paper used in the manufacture of
the set was printed both with and
against the grain and there was
more than usual shrinkage.

American Philatelic Society, pleads
guilty to collecting match covers
as a supplementary hobby. He has
