Tlwmlllon JACK-lN-TIlE-PULPIT Do you remember earlier in these "Newsy Nature Notes" we “Tote about a strange plant that was call- ed "Skunk Cabbage?" Not only has it an odd name, but the whole plant was, you'll remember, of a very odd shape. Of course, the Skunk Cab- bages are all clone now. But if you go to the damp woods where all is shady and the rich black earth is always moist. you will find another plant which at first glance you will see bears a close resemblance to theSkunk Cabbage. This is the Jack-in-the-puipit. But Jack is a much more interest- lns plant. Instead of crouching in the mud he holds himself high above the ground on a real stem. Above this are two branches, each bearing three pretty leaves. Below these leaves we find the flower. And here we see the true family likeness. The flower in the Jack-in-the-pui. pit plant is a fleshy hood very aim. iiar to that of the skunk Cabbage. d inside we find a. similar knob. standing up boldly in his canopied knob the hood curls in a graceful, Eli-W Way so that it requires very little imagination to see the flower the similarity to a preacher standing up boldly in has aanopied rostrum over-arched by the leafy dome of his cathedral. Many of our wild flowers are fancifuiiy named. This plant looks just like a. “rever- end “Jack" in the pulpit. Perhaps you noticed how the lowly Skunk Cabbage withered away s to an unsightly mess. Not so Jack! After he has bloomed in his pulpit for several days-a long sermon you s thmklgthe Pilipit‘. yvilts away and Jack ripcns nlo fruit. Jack is now far more gaudy than he was before.
