cabinet along with those of others of their fellows 

 who have met a similar fate, how much better 

 would it be were each one of these budding 

 naturalists (who, by the way, seldom blossom) 

 supplied with a camera with which to chase his 

 "game," less dangerous 

 to the insect and more 

 instructive to the boy ! 



But it is not only the 

 boys whom I should 

 advise to follow the 

 insects with a camera ; 

 for it is a chase prolific 

 with possibilities, and 

 many of its problems 

 and obstacles can be 

 successfully coped with 

 only by a man. It is 

 a most fascinating field 

 for camera work and 

 one in which there is 

 much to be done, for 

 there are, as yet, but 

 few serious workers in it and there is ample room 

 for all those who wish to enter. 



There are a diversity of difificulties to be over- 

 come, but to the active man these difficulties are, 

 or should be, nothing ; and it is strange to me that, 

 in a field which is so full of chances to obtain such 



Lana Moth hanging from Cocoon.
