Bugs and Butterflies Make Interesting Menageries

BY DAN BEARD, National Scout Commissioner, A great many of my boy friends are enthusiastic collectors of tugs, butterflies and beetles. I was, too, when I was a boy, and I am today. tC o fleeting bugs and butterflies is about the most wholesome kind of collecting a boy can do. It isn't necessarily cruel because bugs and butterflies, in nine cases out of ten are pests anyway, and should be destroyed. They are BEARD short-lived things* too, some of them living but a few hours or days at best and few lasting over the summer. They are pretty when properly preserved, and a number of handsome placks, serving trays and similar objects can be made by pressing the dried butterflies between pieces of glass, along with dried grasses and f*ms, and binding the glass together With passe-partout tape. The wise boys will collect and preserve these things now and In the fall and early winter will begin to mount them into handsome Christmas presents that he will sell and thus earn pocket money. But that is only one way of having fun collecting bugs, butterflies and beetles. There are scores of others. I remember one of the stunts some of my boys used to do was to develop a bug menagrie every summer. A bug menagerie is easily built and

League Covenant Foremost Peace Hope, Asquith Says

BY THE RT. HON. H. EL ASQUITH, M. P. .Former Prime Minister of Great Britainn Copyright. 19?2, By the United News. (By arrangement with “John Bull” (Odliams Press, Ltd.) London) LONDON, July B.—General survey of the International situation, nearly four years after the conclusion of the armistice, discloses abundant grounds for disillusionment and even despondency. The number under arms in Europe is greater than it was in 1914.

After a long series of abortive conferences culminating in the fiasco at Genoa, the problem of preparations and indebtedness, the root of the economic uneasiness, appears as far as ever from the settlement. The nations, debtor and creditor alike, live on from hand to mouth, while the exchanges establish tecords of fluctuation and enterprise tosses on the sick bed uncertainly. Why the Sacrifices? "What has mankind won in return j for the unexampled sacrifices, personal and material, of the war? The statesmanship of Europe has been tried and found wanting, and only a dwindling minority do not agree that the supreme council should wind up its activities. Covenant Stands Foremost. There is, for the mpment, one direction only in which we can look with hope for the establishment of peace on earth. The covenant of the League of Nations stands in the forefront of all the treaties of the last three years. It was signed by thirty states and since has been increased to fifty-one. I find a widely spread impression that the league, started under such Imposing auspices, has become more or less an academic debating society. This is based upon ignorance, and at

I have made and they positively will be the safest sort of cages for even the most ferocious snapping beetle or the most bloodthirsty spider. Build a lot of these cages and then go out and fill them. Get a different specimen in each cage and before you know it you will have a startling collection of the ugliest looking have ever seen behind bars. After you get them all safely caged dig up a good book on zoology and look up their various names. Most of the names you will find are just as formidable as the bug themselves appear. Print out these names in the form of little signs for each cage and paste them on, and while you are doing it study the bug closely. Before the summer ends you will discover that you have learned more about beetles than any other fellow in town, and you will have had a lot of fun. doing it.

variance with the facts. It is true the league has been nandicapped by some unforeseen hindrances. The failure of the United States to ratify and the continued absence of grfrt European nations such as Germany are serious draw- ! backs. The prime ministers and foreign ministers of the allied powers, who are always ready to attend anything that is called a conference, are rarely present at meetings of the league council. Connell Overshadows It has been overshadowed by the supreme council of the allies, who have taken functions for the performance of which, under the covenant, the natural and appropriate instrument was the league council. The league has been kept more or less in the twilight. Nevertheless, it has rendered conspicuous service to the causo of peace already. It has set up the permanent court of international Justice, and I understand that the first application for the active Intervention of the new tribunal comes from France.
