Mrs. Barbara Fourth Graders at Lone Pine Study Life of Bees in Beehive By DOT SIMMONS Mail Tribune Correspondent Lone Pine Leo Taylor, an interested parent who be-, lieves in furthering education by actual displays, put him self out in order to further the study of insect life at Lone Pine school recently. Taylor set up a beehive in Mrs. Barbara Reedy's fourth grade room, with the aid of Mrs. Kenneth Blair, who has a daughter, Barbara, in Mrs. Reedy's room. Taylor's son, Melvin, a stu dent at Hedrick Junior High school, constructed the case, and Taylor helped set up tne project as part of a Scouting program for his sons. Mr. Reedy's, room studied bees and their habits. She feels this display added greatly to the study. The case was mounted near the win dow. The bees came and went through the tube. The case is class enclosed, so pupils could watch them as they worked. Taylor gave the students a description of the hive and the bees' activities. He showed them the routine of the workers and how the queen bee is cared for by a group of bees. Her life span is from three to five years. The only bees that survive the winter months are the work ers born in the late summer and the queen. When she is too old to lay eggs, she is smothered by the workers. New Queen Chosen The new queen bee is chosen by the workers, and the special egg they pick out. Students also learned that 12 bee stings are equivalent to one rattlesnake bite, and the venom is the same. On hot summer days the hive is ventilated by the bees fanning their wings. Mrs. Reedy said the pupils showed considerable interest in the project and did some research on their own.

Wendt said it might be pos sible to construct an L shaped public health building to al low for an arboretum spon sored by the garden clubs be tween the two buildings, pro viding a courtyard affect. Garden Clubs Protest Last month representatives of 26 garden clubs in the Siskiyou district protested to" the county court over the pos sibility of placing the health building in the plot where the arboretum is planned. The county court has made no decision pending a more thorough examination of the area south of the county ex tension building. County court members visited the area last week to study the problem. County court members have suggested location other than the one adjacent to the exten sion service building might ba possible. The arboretum would dis play trees and shrubs which could be planted around homes in this area. The Scars and Roebuck Foundation ha given $100 for the project.
