BUG-HOUSES AND HUM-BUGS HOW THE WRITER LEARNED THE LIFE HISTORY OF BEETLES—HOW HE USED THEM FOR HORSES. Among the little folk of this world known as the insects, we find almost as many traits of char- acter as we do among the human beings. We have the idle insects, the industrious insects, the warlike insects, the robber insects, the dead-beat insects, the stupid insects and the intelligent insects. We also have among them the low, degraded insects, dirty insects, clean insects, the sluggish slow-moving in- sects, the bright lively insects, the useful insects and the beautiful insects ; all of them are interesting, all of them in one way or another are of vast impor- tance to man, and a study of their habits is not only a source of fun but it is also a most useful study. Besides which, boys, nature lovers live longer and happier lives than ordinary people 1 2 Bugs, Butterflies, and Beetles Probably the first collection the reader will want to make will be butterflies, not because butterflies have more interesting lives or bodies, or even are the most beautiful, for some beetles rival the butterflies in beauty, but because but- terflies are better advertisers than any of the rest of the insects. They display their beauties, at- tract the attention of the boys and even of the more stupid grown people. I say stupid grown people, because one boy of twelve who is alert and fond of nature will see and observe more things than the best-trained naturalist of thirty. A boy of twelve has not had his mind bothered by worldly things which dull the perception of a man, consequently the boy will see more, feel more, hear more, and smell more than the older person. Not long since I was in the Smithsonian In- stitution at Washington in one of the private rooms not open to the general public and there I was shown drawer after drawer of butterflies, some of them so closely resembling each other that only a scientist could detect the points of difference, and enough of them to probably cover an acre or more of ground. Few of my readers will want to make such a vast Fore Talk 3 collection as that at the Smithsonian Institution at Washington, and probably none of them ever will, for the collection at the National Capital is made up of the contributions of many, many collectors, but some of my readers may contribute to the col- lection at Washington or exchange specimens with the people at Washington, whom they will find ever ready to assist them in their work and encourage them in their study.

NEW TITLES The Generous Fish BY JACQUELINE JULES, ILLUSTRATED BY FRANCES TYRRELL Inspired by Jewish folklore, The Generous Fish is the story of a young boy named Reuven who takes a verse from scripture to “cast your bread upon the waters” (Ecclesiastes 11:1) quite literally. The result of his daily act is a giant talking fish with golden scales! Boy and fish spend idyllic days together until the villagers realize those scales are real gold. Every villager has good reason to ask for one. Devorah needs clothes for her children. Old Joseph needs money for a cane. The fish says he has plenty to share. But he grows weak from giving away too much, too fast. Can Reuven stand up to the village and save his friend? Jacqueline Jules is the author of forty books for young readers, including the award-winning Zapato Power series, Never Say a Mean Word Again: A Tale from Medieval Spain, and Feathers for Peacock. A former school librarian and teacher, Jacqueline enjoys visiting schools to share her passion for reading and writing. She is a word person, who loves rearranging words on the page, the same way people have fun fitting the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle together. Jacqueline lives in Arlington, Virginia.

M ICHENER Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1982 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. ALFRED EDWARDS EMERSON December 31, 1896-October 3, 1976 BY EDWARD O. WILSON AND CHARLES D. MICHENER OMETHING ABOUT ants, termites, and other social insects S attracts generalists, scholars who begin with a deep inter- est in basic entomology, or else acquire it, and who restlessly probe far beyond into such fields as evolutionary theory, biogeography, the history of science, and philosophy while conducting otherwise ordinary research. In the eighteenth century it was Rene Antoine Ferchault de Reaumur; in the nineteenth century, John Lubbock, Auguste Forel, and that famous amateur myrmecologist, Charles Darwin. In our own time William Morton Wheeler has been followed by Karl von Frisch, Caryl P. Haskins, and Theodore D. Schneirla. Into the last group must be placed Alfred E. Emerson. Until his death he was the leading authority on termites, a restless technical expert who contributed massively to their classification, anatomy, and biogeography. He was also an important contributor to modern ecology, one of the synthe- sizers of the 1940's and 1950's who brought the large quan- tities of new data on adaptation, physiology, behavior, and distribution into line with the emerging principles of the "New Synthesis" of evolutionary theory.
