SPIDERS
Spiders are not insects; they com
prise a seperate class of animals to
themselves. They have eight legs
and do not have antennae (“feelers”),
while adult inselts have six legs and
have a pair of antennae attached to
the head As most spiders are of
what we might call “insectsize” it is
not surprising that most persons con
sider them as insects. Spiders are
numerous most everywhere.
Most spiders spin webs, these are
of great variety and each species
spins a certain type of web, the “cob
webs” in the corners of sheds unused
rooms, etc., do not seem to be any
definite shape, merely an irregular
maze of threads. The orb-webs are
rounded and very regular in shape
and are often seen suspended be
tween shrubs or tall weeds. Other
webs are triangular in shape. These
AN ORDINANCE
BE IT ORDAINED by the Mayor
and Aldermen of the Town of New
berry, S. C., in Council assembled,
and by authority of the same:
SECTION 1. That the Clerk and
Treasurer of the Town of Newberry,
S. C., in the collection of taxes, of
the Town of Newberry, assessed for
and during the year 1944, be, and
he is hereby, authorized to allow to
all taxpayers of the Town of New
berry, S. C, a discount of one per
cent, on all taxes paid during the
month of October, 1944, and to al
low a discount of one-half of one
per cent, on all taxes paid said
Town during the month of Novem
ber, 1944.
SECTION 2. This ordinance shall
take effect immediately upon its ap
proval.
DONE and ratifed in Council as
sembled under the corporate seal of

webs ate for the purpose of trapping
flying insects which the spider will
devour. Commonly the web is com
posed of two kinds of threads, one
sticky and elastic to ensnare the vic
tim, the other of dry harder silk
which forms a framework over which
the spider runs with ease and speed
without itself becoming entangled.
The spider stations itself on or near
tod the web in touch with some of its
strands, when a" insect becomes pn-
tangled its struggles vibrates the
whole web, and out rushes the spider
to kill the victim. If an insect is
caught which is strong enough to
tear the web to pieces the spider may
clip the threads around so as to .set
the insect free, or, it may run over
and around the captive, kicking it
over, spinning more webs all the
time until the victim is helplessly
bound up in the silky shroud.
Spiders spin the web from a group
of nipples or teats (spinnerets) near
the hinder end of the body beneath,
in which respect they are entirely un
like the caterpillars among true in
sects which spin their silk from a
gland in the lower lip near the mouth.
Spiders have sharpened jaws with
which they can bite into frail insects
and these jaws are hollow & inject
a small amount of poison, by this
means they kill their prey, yet very
few species can bite strongly enough
to penetrate the human skin Stu
dents who collect and study spiders
often pick up even large ones with
the fingers and seldom if ever are
they painfully bitten, while you (and
I also) might be afraid to exercise
such familiarity—a good example of
how widespread some of our needless
fears are about nature’s creatures.

Disease-carrying insects - ma-c,uitoes,
fleas, lice, ticks—have killed or disabled more
American fighting men than many a hard-
fought battle.
But today, men in the tropical theaters espe
cially are better protected against these killers
than ever before—thanks to amazing new dis
coveries like DDT.
Spray DDT on a screen — and a fly that
walks on that screen three months later dies.
Or take “Aerosol”—a new way of releasing
pyrethrum in a gas. One small drop of pyre-
thrum, when released by means of an aerosol,
will kill every “skeeter” in a room 12x12x7
in one minute!
Now the DDT and aerosols are some of the
thousand and one things — in addition to the
obvious items like guns, tanks, planes, and
ships—that are needed to fight the world’s big
gest and toughest war, and which make this
war so terrifically expensive.
They're going to spend part of your
War Bond money this year for DDT—and
other insect killers—some $40,000,000.
That money will save American lives and
help shorten the war. It would be a darn good
investment even if we never got a cent of it
back. But we will get it back — and get more
money with it.
Under those circumstances. War Bonds
have a mighty strong claim on every dollar
you don’t have to spend for actual necessities.
Maybe you could find enough of
those dollars to buy an extra Bond—
today.
