five ways Baptists could adj

creasing the support Of world
missions: praying for peace
and good will: supporting

when you take your walks this spring. Dr.. Cochran
reminds
You'll find four varieties of lizards two rare,
in this area You'll find the little fence lizards and
the sknks frequently If you keep a sharp eye for
them but you less likely to the race runners
and the ground skinks. They mostly found
in sandy places.
And the turtles charming. But watch
out for the snapper, because he will fight back
The land terrapn is a nice fellow although he
will eat your tomatoes But you ought to plant
enough for him, too, because he'll just nibble the
low-growng ones"
DR.. Cochran, who has been in the Smithsonian
for 40 years, succeeded DR. Lombard Stejneger as
curator of reptiles. She took her doctors degree
at the University of Maryland, and the blue crab
was the subject of her thesis.
Before 1 started work on the blue crab" she
says lust few more than a dozen Of his muscles
had been identified. When 1 finished, had
dissected and classified more than 200"
She is now at work on an deliberately illustrated
book on the living amphibanS of the world which
will become of seven volumes natural history
planned for publication. The book on living reptiles
published last year.

snakes, try to see their beauty. And remember,
too, that they have their place in that scheme
called the great cycle of nature.
This way you'll learn to see-and to enjoy
more things around you"

1T IS THE time Of year when the earth-and all
Il things in it-begns to awaken.
And to the crawling things that begin to stir
out into the spring sun, DR.. Doris Cochran calls
a CHEEKY welcome.
For Dr. Cochran, curator of reptiles at the
Smithsonian Institution, is friend Of all those
creatures that make most people Shudder.
One day, in her Office in the Natural History
Building, she was talking to Bufo paracnemis just
up from Bolivia Bufo paracnenis, in case you
don't know is huge toad, and during the four
years he has been DR.. Cochran's guest, he has
become rather friendly.
How ugly he is" visitor remarked.
HE isn't, either" DR.. Cochran retorted. He
is beautiful You just don't see him properly"
Dr. Cochran believes that all nature is beautiful,
and that all things created have their proper
places in nature.
There is nothing horrible about snakes" she
says. Learn to look at them Understand their
usefuness-they great friends of man-and
think before you kill them"
To DR.. Cochran, there is no such thing as
harmful snake, although she will admit that the
pit vipers, such copperheadS and rattlesnakes,
have no place in our domestic activities.
"They aren't safe around barn. for example,
she says although they do like to eat mice and
rats The black snake is better barn snake"

are quite harmless and very useful to man. Chances
are when you see gaily colored snake, it is

hognose snake or maybe corn snake, and not the
dreaded copperhead. Other useful and harmless
snakes are the mole snake, LAmpropeltiS rhom-
bromoculata and the milk snake, LampropeltiS
triangulum
And, speaking of the milk snake, DR.. Cochran
says there nothing to the old stories about milk
snakes milking COWS.
ut may have been that farmer, coming into
his COW shed one night, snake wound around
hind leg of his cow" she says. And he of course,
thought the snake after milk.
But what really happened was that the snake,
in the shed after mice, got stepped on by the cow
and in trying to get free, entwned itself about
the cows leg.
That's how lots of stories get started. Not
enough investigation"
And there is the old story about the hoop snake.
Almost every boy has heard about this strange
reptile that takes its tail in its mouth, forming
living hoop, and rolls down hill
Well there's nothing to that story either"
DR. Cochran says. 1T is old that think it
must have started in the old country, but it may
be that the antics of the hognoSe snake have
added to it.
The hognose is a dear. He is gentle, and when
YOU tease him for while, he'll curl himself up
sort of like hoop And I've had one roll few
inches right here in the laboratory.
Il expect that he may have added something
to the hoop snake story, but don't know"

helped prepare the chicken that
was to be barbeeued in foil, and
assisted in the making of some
tasty potato salad that accom-
panied the rest of the meal Ice
cream and cold drinks were serv-
ed also.
Activities of the week included
arts and crafts, dramatics, home
building and home keeping, hiking,
songs, dances, and games.
