Mrs. George c. Thorpe

Mrs. George c. Thorpe was useful and
respected member Of this community and
her unexpected death this week represents
a real loSS particularly in the civic work
that enlisted her continuing interest and
leadership. She combined the charm Of an
intelligent and well-informed woman with
a faculty for concise and lucid argument
that made her an effective champion Of any
cause. One Of the projects dear to her heart
was increasing traffic safety, and as chair
man Of the legislative committee of the
American Automobile Associations District
Advisory Chapter she was unusually sue
cessful in her persuasive pleas to congress
sional committees for helpful legislation in
that field. AS the first and only woman
member Of the Citizens Advisory Council,
and as director for many years Of the
Washington Committee for Education on
Alcoholism, she brought wisdom and tact to
their deliberations. Always lady, friendly
II insistent in controversy, she devoted her
self to being good citizen at time in life
that so often deprives people Of any interest
beyond the family circle.

This and That
BY Charles E. Trocewen

Recent investigators have found out
that bees indicate directions to other
bees by sort of dance.
This seems too strange, at first
thought, but one has but to think Of
the rhythm in the universe to believe
in it without further argument.
The wisdom Of the bee people is
famous the world over. (Maurice Mae
terlinck's 1.-THE Life of the Bee" has
at last worked its way into 35-cent
paper book.)
Yet we tend to overlook the bees
we city and suburban people. It Is
true they live in a different world than
ours. building up their honey and
special good food for the queen. A
chemist has analysed the queen bees
food, and found 1t not much different
from other foods.
Lazy summer days put the spiders
furiously to work building bigger and
better webs.
There is the large yellow one. not
to be feared, and the smaller black
one. the widow. most deadly of all.
Never take q chance with black
spider.
You might pat other colors on the
head, but not this one. And If she
bites. get thee to hospital quickly.
Do not wait. especially il child is
bitten. for the little one receives ex-
actly the same amount Of venom as an
adult weighing two or three times as

much. In other words, in the child.
each pound Of body must receive and
nullify more spider venom than an
adult would.
This notification cannot be carried
on properly without the aid that a
hospital alone can give.

And those dreamy butterflies!
Cats love to stand on their hind legs
and clap paws at them. seldom catch
ing anything, because the dreamy ones
are rather practical fellows. after all.
They dip and soar, easily outwitting
the cavortipg cat, which probably
didn't want to catch them in the first
place.
Festive cats, overcome with summer
madness, often stand up to bat at
oriental poppy blossoms, which they
never harm.
Best gift to a summer garden would
be sleeping possum in the vines. Let
no one disturb its slumber, since 1t Is
harmless.
It partakes daintily of bread and
suet, even holding out one Of its mar
velous hands for a gift.
Beneath the ivy there may be shrews.
looking for all the world like fat mice.
And should there be moles. destroy
them not, for there is too much de-
struction In the world already.
Let summertime hold happiness for
them and all little things that do US
no harm.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-08-12

Summer comes to Huidekoper place:
Along with the music of the birds,
Of which we have about % kinds
1.-THE perfume Of the flowers
1.-THE hum of the bee
1.-THE dreamy butterflies
"The large spider web, the chipmunk
and the squirrel
"And now possum sleeping in the
vines of our feeding table
"All these are part of the joy we see
from our broad window that faces the
eastern sky.
Most sincerely. MIR"
Here we have creatures summed up
that are easily overlooked.
The bees, for instance.
Well-conducted bees mostly let peo-
pie alone.
Even the thin-skinned person can
stand within few inches Of big bee
buSily intent on pollen.
It is only the exceptional man or
woman who inks the bees.
Such do well to stay away from them
The rest of us can enjoy them, per-
haps more than we do, because they
come to all gardens where there are
q few flowers.
Bees, like hummingbirds. seem to
prefer the gladiolus and other bell
shaped blossoms.
But they like New England asters.
and sweet rocket. and almost every
thing else In the garden.
