as the GeishaS were concerned,
There was no exchange of con-

two reasons for this. For one, the
GeishaS were busy and for the
other, no common language ex-
listed between the Is girls and the
one interloping spectator. The
only three words of japanese this
department knows are "banzai. !"
"kamakazie" and "Jo," the first

lem they cannot solve. They
shift from quietly sleeping to vio-
lently dreaming men with as
much FEASIBILITY as any actors
could. Fuzzy relationships are not
their fault so much as that of the
playwright who dared such a diff
f1cult thing as "a Sleep of Prison
ers."
1t is to their credit that Fry's
allegorical acrobatics are so en-
crossing that the spectator quickly
loses a feeling of strangeness at
seeing a play in a church.
The four players represent
three of the original cast. with
Donald Harron as an impressive
replacement in the role of the
adolescent Peter. Leonard White
is a passionately reckless man in
the role of David, Stanley Baker
is precisely right as the order
loving corporal. and Hugh Fryse
is completely winning as the phil
osophic older soldier.
If they cannot make "a Sleep
of Prisoners" as dramatic as Fry
has been before, the fault is more
his than theirs.

dreams in which weak men kill

of men saved by a common hope

Fry's work.

table reason that it leaves more
earth-bound morals behind in
stead Of inspiring them, as earlier

1t is a fascinating, obsessive
love Fry has for words, strength
of poets that weaker humans are
apt to disapprove when they can
not share 1t. Yet is is not easy to
escape the spell of F'ry's swirling
imagination in this unusual and
perplexlng work. 1t represents
such a break with the spiritless
conventions of the theater that
one can only wish it the perfec-
ton that it somehow fails to
achieve.
The Fry of "A Sleep of Prison
ers" is not the merry magician

He is the poet rummaging in the
conscience of mankind, a con-
science represented in four priso-
ners of war locked in a convenient
church. This is a serious theme
and. apart from an occasional
wryly testing aside, Fry treats it
seriously.
The form he has chosen so
daringly to match with the cas-
cading language Of his religious
play is both strange and elusive.
He starts simply enough with four
men of varied temperaments. He
sets them down in their strange
prison and Identifies them.
They are easily recognizable,
Pvt. David King. the man of pas
sion who believes in his own
strength; Pvt. Peter Able, the
cynical. self-pitying adolescent;
Corpl. Joseph Adams who feels

ed like a manual of arms: and
Pvt. Tim Meadows, much older
who has learned from experience
q kindly philosophic resignation.

A unique and disturbing feature Of
our mosquito eggs is that even
though they may all be laid at APP
proximately the same time, the
hatch, in the following or in subse-
quent years, may extend through
three or four refillings of the de-
preston in which they were laid.
This uneven hatch has given the
general impression that there are
several generations a year while in
reality there is only one.
Matching Time Varies
The time required to hatch the
eggs once they have been submerged
in water will be determined by the
species involved and by the tempera-
ture Of the water. No general rule
can be followed in this respect, as
some species develop exclusively in
snow waters while others will not
hatch until the water temperatures
are above so to so degrees.
The length of time spent in the
larval or wiggler stage is likewise
quite variable. It may be as long as
IS days or as short as days. de-
pending on the temperature of the
water. The next stage, that of the
pupae or ''tumbler' may last from
3 to 9 days again depending on wa
ter temperatures.
It is from these pupae that the
winged adult mosquitoes finally
emerge. If an adequate supply Of
warm blooded animals, including
man, are readily available, the fe-
male mosquitoes will start feeding
almost Immediately. If such is not
the case they will start to migrate

for some time after the river sub
sides.
4.2s7 in One Pool
One of the species which inhabits
the prairie regions prefers foul, filthy
situations. These may be found in
roadside pools, around city dumps,
hog wallows, etc BY actual count,
a filthy puddle which was only
inches long, inches wide and
inches deep contained 4,287 larvae
or wigglers.
Using this puddle as a basis for
estimation, it was calculated that an
adjoining hog wallow and the filthy
pools surrounding it contained well
over 1O0,OO0.OO0 wigglers. This hog
wallow produced enough adult mos
quitoes to make life utterly miser-
able for the inhabitants of a good
sized town to say nothing of the
misery they would have dealt out
to livestock in the surrounding area.
Members of the remaining four
species usually prefer clear, open
sunlit pools whose waters are quite
strongly alkaline They do not seek
out shaded pools or places that con-
tain large quantities of decomposing
organic matter.
The eggs which are laid one season
will not hatch until the next year,
and then only if the depression in
which they were laid fills up with
water. If this does not happen the
eggs may remain where they were
laid for several years without in any
way affecting their ability to hatch
out when water finally does make
its appearance.

Aedes yexans. second most prevalent in
state. is also q wretch.
THE MOSQUITO is one insect that
needs no formal introduction to most
residents Of Montana. Throughout
the spring and summer months, its
attacks provide constant source of
discomfort and irritation to man as
well as to all other warm-blooded
animals
It may come as somewhat of
surprise to most people to know that
there are over 40 different species
Of mosquitoes in Montana From the
standpoint Of being bitten, it matters
little whether the culprit is a s'vex-
ans, an ''inscrepitus," or a "punc-
tor" but from the standpoint of
control, it may make great deal of
difference, as the breeding habits of
each of these three mentioned mos
quito species are entirely different.
Many people have learned to think
only in terms Of the malaria mosqui-
to whose breeding habits are quite
well known to most of US Unfortu-
nately, this has resulted in the pro-
motion and carrying out of many
control programs which were inef-
fective from the standpoint of reduc-
ing mosquito numbers.
2 Deadly Species
Though there are 40 odd species
present in the state, approximately
80 percent of the misery is dealt out
by the members of only about seven.
One of these species is confined al
most exclusively to our forested
areas, another to wooded river OF
creek bottoms, while the other five
are distributed throughout the open
mountain valleys and prairie regions
of the state.
All seven species have one thing
in common; namely, that they rarely
select permanent bodies of water II
or. around which to deposit theil
eggs. They all prefer pools which
are temporary in nature such a
those resulting from melting snow
heavy rains, river or creek floods
flood irrigation and SO forth.
The female mosquito does not la,
her eggs on or in the water bu
usually deposits them on the stil
damp soil where temporary pool
are beginning to dry up.
The nature of the drying up pool
appears to exert a great influenc
on the particular mosquitoes selec
ton Of a choice" place in which {
deposit her eggs. For instance, tn
species which inhabits the woode
areas usually select a well shade
depression where there is an abunc
ance Of moss or decaying leaves an
whose remaining waters show mel
trail or slightly acid reaction.
Those which inhabit wooded riv,
or creek bottoms prefer to lay the
eggs along the banks in depression
which will remain filled with wat
