A pair of northern yellow throats dined meagerly on 7000 plant lice One flicker consumed 5000 ants without stopping, while his lady polished off 3000. I know something of this after feeding about 18 bluejays during the winter months. I did not keep count of the tremendous amount of grain they ate last winter.

Patience This is what tries a teacher's soul, but only patient gentleness will help cither pupil or teacher.

Usually It is best to let this sort of pupil go ahead with his age group and give him a program that offers the subjects and the methods that he can best use. There is one tiling about slow children that often is overlooked. Life teaches them far more than the schools ever do. Just day-by- day living, the piling of experience on experience, matures them and adds a power to their intelligence that permits them to do useful work and hold a respected place' in the community. They should! never be discarded as they should be encouraged to do; their best in whatever field work is open to them, and there! is always one.
