BATS WANTED
Germany's most celebrated flittormouse tower is at Bingen; but now historic Heidelberg is to liave its *bat tower, too. The tower is to be built in such a way as to attract hosts of bats —a kind of model dwelling for them. The- reason is that folk living in the wooded valley of the Neckar arc plagued in summer by midges, gnats, and mosquitoes. If only they can get crowds of bats to live in their tower, they hope, they will help to do away with the pests.
