The one-celled ani-mals are very numerous in species, andoften have the power to move very quick-ly through the water, though at timesthey are firmly attached to the rocks orplants.

Among the diatoms in our river youwill sometimes see a crescent shapedboat with green instead of brown chloro-phyll. This is a desmid, another one-celled plant which is much esteemed asfood by many other animals besides thebell animalcule. WiLMATTE Porter Cockerell. 222 Text Appearing After Image: FROM COL. CHI.

This class is divisible intotwo well marked divisions or orders; first,the Hlydroidea, comprising the fresh-water hydra and the marine hydroids,and, second, the Sc)fphozoa or jellyfishes. A few species of the first ordersecrete a limy support, but the greatermajority are soft and jelly-like. The Hydroids have a more or less sac-like body which is usually attached tosome object by a pedicel or stem ofgreater or lesser length. They are colo-nial animals, like true corals, and hun-dreds or even thousands live together inclusters, forming huge colonies. As inthe sea anemones, the mouth is placed atthe upper end and is surrounded by a rowof hollow tentacles, which are very con-tractile and are seldom in the same posi-tion for more than a few seconds. A fewof the Hydroids are capable of lo Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
