Representative Gross, Republi-

does have to do with a gift. A
sizeable one, too.
Back before the turn of the
century, the District needed a new
hospital for contagious diseases
It was hunting a site, and the
Sisters of Charity at Providence
Hospital said the District could
put the building up on Provi-
dence's grounds.
That loaf of bread came back
to the nuns.
The District built a 5000, 900 in
istitution on the nuns land. Fifty
odd years ago, that was lot of
money. Not that it still isn't, but
$200,0 went further then than
lit does now.
About 10 years later the District
government built Gallinger Hos
Ipital. 1t no longer needed the
building at Providence, so it made
a gift of it to the sisters.
One more item-in all the dis
cussions with hospital people here,

conversation about bequests and
other gifts. Every trustee and
supervisor was agreed that there

During the first two weeks of
June the woods were full of 10
Gusts and the noise of their sing
ing. The song has no resemblance
whatever to the shrill, undulating
screech of the annual locuSts SC
common in August and September
and known as the dog-day cicadas.
"The song and all the notes of
the larger variety of the 17-year
cicada are characterized by a burr
sound and at least four different
Iutterances may be distinguished"
The locust has a lot of enemies
birds, hogs, dogs. fish and squir-
rels. Those which came out here
in 1906 were destroyed by birds.
But whether you call him the
I17-year locust, the periodical ci-
Icada, or Magicicada septendecim,
don't blame him for eating the
