Index of Subjects My neighbour, Robie Cooper, told me about the Painted Lady Butterfly terrariums this morning. He is getting one of these terrariums as a Fathers Day Gift from his young son, Ben, (VERY interested in Nature). These, apparently, were available through his son's elementary school. (here in Dartmouth; it is the French Immersion school). I can't wait to see the terrarium and watch the transformation. Robie was excited too. Nice to see, even, us grown-ups, getting all wide-eyed about nature, and what a wonderful project for the school! Thank you, Jim! Gayle MacLean Dartmouth ---- "James W.
