The dress itself is made with a V-neckline and extended shoulder straps seamed at the top. Chiffon ribbon passes under the straps, goes across front and back and is tied in small bows at either arm.

In the evening light these crickets look very white. They are a pale green, their body is slender and ivory white, | tinged with delicate green. The wings are clear and so are the wing cases The antennae are extremely long and threadlike, with two slightly elevated | black dots on the under side. | The young suitor, besides being a singer of note, brings to the young lady cricket an offering of sweets. He be- gins his ditty with a soulful note, the | young damsel is seen to listen, she | comes closer, and sees that the gallant has his wings raised high and the song | now is most pleading. The song and of- | fering of a delectable sweet are ir- | resistible and the offer is accepted. She is seen sipping the sweet from & tiny pocket located at the base of his wings. The song is hushed while the lady en- joys her treat. | * Ot course, she marries him, and then | the mother seeks our apple trees, cher- | rv, peach, raspberry and blackberry | stems in which she bores a tiny hole to | insert her wee, pale yellow eggs. The mother is supplied with a very sharp drill at the tip of her body, she makes | a hole about the size of a pin point, | drills into the sapwood and places one | egg, about one-eighth of an inch long, | | in the puncture. ~She makes about 75 | holes, about 25 to the inch, in a very straight row These holes are often the open door for tree diseases. Canes split and break off where the mother cricket laid her eggs. All Winter the eggs remain in the twigs. In Spring the eggs hatch and | the pale, slonder infants steal forth to feed on the foliage of the trees, pollen and ripe fruit. They have very accom- modating appetites for such wee crea- tures. They grow slowly and are just like their parents. When fully grown | they have a pair of wings. There is | one gereration a year, and these crickets | | are known all through the East and Middle West. | Dusting or spraying the canes of your berries and the trees where the punv:| turss may be seen is the only way to still the voice of the lusty serenader. | | (Copyright, 1931.) | = . e i Peanut Butter Cakes. | Cream together haif & cupful of but- | ter or other fat, half a cupful of pea- | nut butter and one cupful of sugar.
