This one is particularly popu- lar because it involves a game of chance and luck and provides an,op- portunity to play near the water. There is no need of getting wet, how- ever, unless you fall in by appoint- ment. The materials' necessary for this hike are a glass' jar. or two with mos - Quito netting,,,and a small wire strain- ` er from the ten -cent store • (or mother's kitchen), a small microscope or read- 'ing glass will also be useful Small ' brooks and. feeders . from grassy 8elds``.aont'ain animal and. in - .seed life galore.Dip and drag the net along the bottom and out- will come a collection of whirligy, wiggiely life which is transferred. to the glass jar.
