A Greek legend tells the tale of a young girl named Araehne. It was said that she could spin fine threads and weave beautiful cloth. She was so proud of her skills that she challenged the goddess Athena to a spinning and weaving contest and won. Athena became so enraged at being surpassed bv a mere mortal that she tore up the cloth and changed the young maiden into a spider. Poor Araehne was doomed to spend the rest of her life spinning, By Dean Young BUM TN. v thank goodness J'CzC-- I WHV DONTVOU GET A JOB LIKE EVERYSOPV n ' and Jim Raymond don't have DO A ELSE-- MM that FOR to In .Am nCI LIVING' 1 'A By Alex Fred Basnet Graham iV .

To By Johnn Hart tab annual -PERLE JOKE OFF. JACK PACTY or something spiders do better arachnids man any other creature. The pretty black and yellow, or black and orange, spiders that you saw in your garden during the summer and early fall months are no longer with us. But you can bet that before they fell victim to the dull of winter they did their best to keep your garden free of many insect pests. As you may know, spiders are carnivorous meatea-ters- , and among their favorite foods are many of the freeloading insects that invade our prized plants. Uses for Webs Most all spiders can spin silk of one kind or another. Some of them use their silk to line underground burrows or make egg cases. The master spinners use their silk to spin webs to catch their prey, and the webs range greatly in size, shape and beauty. Perhaps one of the champion spinners is the garden spider. Her web is generally two to three feet across, although occasionally an ambitious Miss will construct an even larger one. When she is finished with her spiraled orb, she affixes a zigzag her signature band of silk running vertically through the center. In the fall, as cold weather begins to set in, she searches for a place to lay her eggs. A roof of silken threads is spun in which she deposits some DOO golden eggs. Golden Treasure Gently she pushes them together to form a d ball. neat Now she spins winding strands of silk hack and forth, until her golden treasure is almost hidden in a sturdy silken cocoon. The garden spider makes only one egg case, but the effort leaves her weak and tired. As the cold of October creeps in she drops to the ground and dies. But in her egg ease are hundreds of tiny eggs, and soon the spiderlings hatch and spend the winter in their snug, insulated shelter. Around May the first young garden spiders crawl through tiny openings in the egg case to embark on their journey through life. Their first order of business is to spread out into the wide world and find suitable places to spin their webs. Many uninformed people consider every spider a deadly enemy. They go to great lengths to eliminate them at every turn. Actually, spiders play an important role in the balance of nature. They help rather than harm man by preying on insects that destroy crops and carry diseases. pearl-shape- t : , J, V .Tumhlewh Momma NOW, MOMMA.'
