Show The Vanishing Bee Hunt In the July Atlantic Monthly there is an article that should be read by everyone in particular and nobody in general. gen-eral. It is entitled, "The Bee Hunter," is written charmingly by George Harold Edgell, and comes as an assurance that all is not lost; that the atom bomb is not the goal. For if there are people, as Mr. Edgeel claims there, are, who find exhileration in spending the better part of day looking for a "bee tree" then there's certainly little reasan for the rest of us to knock ourselves out fighting the cold war and the newspapers and radio are always talking about. Bee hunting is a very technical sport and we are not about to buzz in Mr. Edgill's hive with an attempt to explain it. If you don't read the article, you'll just have to take our word for it that the world needs more bee hunters and less head hunters. For instance, if the next time the Big Four Foreign ministers minis-ters meet, they'd got to bee hunting instead of sitting around insulting each other, fewer of us would get stung and even the Russian bear couldn't kick anymore about not getting his share of the honey. In hi;, article, Mr. Edgell claims that bee huntinb is rapidly becoming a lost art. Certainly there was never a better time for a revival. , -- - Bee Hunters, Arise! |
