370 NATURE-STUDY REVIEW 



10:00 



I got a spray of night shade and placed it in the glass all ready for 

 Ferdinand. Surely he will have a fabulous appetite after his long 

 fast. 

 11:30. 



Ferdinand is up! Perfect in every way and a great beauty. 

 He is not hungry at all and took only a few bites of the leaves. 

 It seems that most of the damage is done by the larvae. 



This is the last stage in Ferdinand's life. Hasn't it been wonder- 

 ful to watch the development of this little creature from the tiny 

 egg to the adult beetle? 



Surely no one with an understanding heart could see these 

 marvelous changes and not gain a richer appreciation of the great 

 truth "I am the resurrection and the life." 



O Silver Moon 



LoTTA O. Sloan 



Silver Crescent on a field of blue, 



1 wonder what I should find in you 

 Could I but get a nearer view. 

 Would I to your secret get a clew?

 Silvery 



Crescent Moon! 



O Silver Moon, in your starry domain, 

 Are there peoples, too, on that far away plane^ 

 Mountains and valleys, forests and plain. 

 High above the clouds and the rain?

Crescent Moon! 



O Silver Crescent on a field of blue, 

 May I not join your retinue, 

 And your starry Westward way pursue 

 When I to earth shall bid adieu?

Crescent Moon!
