Spent the day as best we could. It is practically impossible to do any collecting from here without a car. At 2[[underscored superscript]]30[[/superscript]] I went over to see [[strikethrough]] the Co [[/strikethrough]] Mr. Devaux. I asked him to help me get a map case I left at Matouba. He tried the telephone, but the service is so bad that we gave it up and went over to the Post Office to send a telegram. After that we went back to the Consulate, and he showed me his new radio. It is an Ultramor, one of the cheaper 10-tube all-wave sets. It brought in several stations with ample volume. Couldn't tell about the tone on the short-wave stations. He offered to let me come over to listen to the news at six.
Went back to the hotel to wait for the pay-off. No one arrived and we went to bed early. 
I spent quite a while in the afternoon working on the glossary. Added terms from what periodicals I have here now, Ent. News, Vol. 46, No. 7 and Rev. Ent. Vol. 5, No. 1. Must have 500 more than I have cards for. I am keeping references to [[text ?]]definitions in Snodgrass whenever I find them. It would be much easier if I could start out with a set of cards made from Smith's Glossary, and then add the additional ones.

[[left margin note]] XI-14-35 [[/margin note]] Got up early and finished breakfast before eight. Got our car and started out to make a circuit of the Grande Terre. Our route was through Les Abymes, Grippon, le Moule, St. Francois, Ste. Anne, le Gosier and back to Pointe-a-Pitre. It was just ninety [[strikethrough]]m[[/strikethrough]] kilometers. The rental was to be 1.50 francs per kilometer,--everything included. The first stop was

Eight kilometers west of le Moule (21 k. northeast of Pointe-a-Pitre). A small pasture. Collected only in dung but found a fair series of Staphs and quite a few Aphodiinae. (also Myriapods)
[[underline]] Station 87. [[/underline]]
Five kilometers west of le Moule (24 k. northeast of Pointe-a-Pitre). A small pasture. Dung yielded several large black Scarabs, and a fair series of Staphs ^[[27)]] [[insertion written in pencil]] and Aphodiinae. Also broke into a termite nest and kept specimens. Didn't see any guests.
[[underline]] Station 88. [[/underline]]
Two kilometers west of le Moule (27 k. northeast of Pointe-a-Pitre). A fine sand beach. Drift was very scattered and I found only three of the brown Carabids and one Staph ( [[underscore]] Cafius [[/underscore]] ?) This was the only beach we saw all day.
