•( t How To Get A Day In The Country— A Tip For Moms By MARIE WOOD High school biology teachers fall into the classification of folks whom tired mothers can use if they will employ a lit tle strategy in the matter. This is the story: Invariably the classwork is marked by an assignment of a bug collection - with bugs usually being the one group of liv ing things that a teen-ager (m^e or female) simply can't stand getting in the proximity of. We know-we went through the stage sometime ago (but of course when the world was much younger if you’d believe our progeny). Early in the semester when the fall classes have just started and the days are long and sweet and the nights warm and buzzing, the biology teacher announces to her students that they must turn in a bug collection before the end of the first semester. At the time the teacher makes the announcement, every thing from praying mantises to stag beetles are alive and possibly even still propogating. Stop under any street light after dark with a spray bomb and the collection you could knock down would bring an A plus from the most demanding teacher. But what happens? Sylvanius or Mary Isabella mentally retreats hastily as far as possible from the subject. One, two, three weeks pass-and the long, sweet summer- like days begin to be fewer and fewer as fall slips gaily into the picture. Slowly an awareness penetrates the student-TH AT bug col lection isn’t collected. At that moment, the student turns frantically to airing what by now has become a big grievance. He - or she - has gotta have a bug collection! He-or she-HATES bugs,CAN’TST AND’em; they RUIN his-or her-meal even to think about bugs! And, finally, he^ or she-guesses there’s no alternative but to take failure in the course. This is the time of course that Mother gets the burden shifted to her weary shoulders. “But a bug collection this late in the year. The bugs are almost all gone. Now you tell me,” she wails in tones equal ly as despairing. But if she’s a wise mother-has remembered anything about her own biology days-she’s been ready for this. If not-well here’s the way to take advantage of that biol ogy assignment. Make a deal with son or daughter, that in exchange for rounding up those bugs, son or daughter, will do the supper dishes for the next week - or until all bugs are collected. And if she really wants her pound of flesh, add the bed- making mornings - with Saturdays and Sundays included. Sunday evening dishes might be thrown in for good meas- Now the problem becomes mother’s. First thing is to buy a bug bomb-the biggest and the most efficient in the supermarket, hardware store or drug em porium. Fill the gas tank of the family automobile and wear low heels and old clothes and tell the family you’ll be gone for the next few hours. Then head for the country. If you’ve a friend who shares your love for the outdoors- and at this point if yours is no love, you’d better put on the best kind of a face that it is, because you’re going to need it - you can invite them to go along. And ignore the public! Best place to start huntingis where thereare plenty of late fall flowers-somebody’s neglected garden is fine if it looks like you can get by with it. Butterflies can be included in that bug collection - but you’d better have a spray bomb that immediately delivers a lethal blast or you’ll find yourself chasing that butterfly for long distance. They have been known to drop in the next county. Creek beds are good looking - the water striders are still active. If you’re lucky you might even find a helgrammite. (Any good fisherman can tell you they make wonderful bait so a fisherman might help you.) Snake doctors and mayflies also abound near the water. Watch the tree trunks-all kinds of flying and hopping and crawling creatures are also watching them with the idea of laying their eggs in the wood. That long thing on the tail won’t sting, so don’t scream. It’s an ovideposltor-she lays her eggs with it. Don’t be above getting down on your hands and knees in the sand for an ant lion. This you won’t see but you will see the inverted cone of sand at the bottom of which awaits the tiny 3/8’s of an inch long ant lion. But it’s an insect, mother. Remember those chores you’ve left for doing. Acquisition means grabbing all the sand at the bottom of the pit and spreading it on top of the ground and than grab bing when movement starts. The ant lion will NOT hurt you. Got your jar ready - and don’t waste the bomb here, you don’t need it. Don’t be afraid to turn over old logs and look under stones. It’s getting so late now that the snakes aren’t much of a menace. Oh yes, and watch the fall flowers-thepurpleJoe Pye weed is especially of interest because of the tiny floral spiders which lurk there just waiting for their chance. The nicest big bumble bee we’ve seen, we found already dead and discarded in a Joe Pye weed and it looks beautiful in the collection. What's that-yousimplycan’tabldebugsof any kind. You’d rather die than touch one of them! OK, lady, do your own dishes, and let your son take failure in his biology.
