IP YOUR CHILDREN SUFFER FKOM these annoying pests, send two dol- lars for simple home remedy, lii'at- tan Kelly. Postal Stution K, Toronto. Glued His Books To House Walls Of the 10,000 odd insect pests said to infest the North American contin- ent, the common clothes motli is per- bapa best known and most replied. Yet the motti is, except as an access- cry after the fact, rather an innocent creatur . It bas no predatory in- stincts, lives but a little while, and eats nothing because It is physically Incapable of doing so. The female of the species is only more deadly than the male because of I'.s habit of laying eggs every day of Its one or two weeks of life. It is at the larva stage of life that the moth species devours those things of animal origin on which it finds itself. Thus it eats wool, silk, feathers and hair, grows by what it feeds on and emerges into the chrysalis stage, at last taking wing after it has cast off its case. Before The Eggs Are Laid To cut the moth off tu its prime one must begin before it starts laying eggs, but since it does this on the first day of its short life, being pre- cocious, there Is little time to lose. There are several ways of battling the moth species other than clapping one's hands at it. These ways are all chemical. You can either repel Mother Moth, asphyxiate uer, or put her or her progeny into a lethal chamber. The modern moth repellent differs much from the Victorian moth ball which was composed of coal tar naph- thalene of varying purity, and was only very little less anathema to most humans than to Mother Moth. Nowa- days an aromatic organic chemical, which is easily volatilized and readily aired from the goods, in sufficient con- centration, actually asphyxiates the pest. It is, howaver, quite harmless to humans. Fumigation Often Needed For things such as furniture, drapes, ruga, etc., the moth can best be thwarted by treatment of the material with a chemical which does not suit the dietary fads of the larva. When- ever infestation with moth eggs is sus- pected ordinary repellents are of little value, and the safest treatment is fumigation with a highly lethal gas. This can only be carried out by prop- erly equipped fumlgators or dry- cleaners â€" and most up-to-date dry- cleaning establishments now offer a combined cleaning, fumigation and storage service. w orm Drill If you flash a strong light at night on to a lawn you may see it writh- ing with emergent worms. Give one tap to the ground and every worm will make two staccato movements, as if at a sergeant's word of com- mand, and within three or four sec- onds the whole community will have vanished .... Their sense of vibration is as acute as the hearing of the thrush that de- vours them. I "heARD Friday the Thirteentb of May Only once in 1938 comes Friday the l9tb. So frightened are the American people at the specter of the fig^ure "13" that one of the largest hotel systems in the United States found it necessary to abolish room 13. And yet the proof is strong that this hat- ed numeral is one of the luckiest in all the arithmeti: of life. Woodrow Wilson had such faith in 13 that he would be elected president because his name had 13 letters in it, and the number had always brought him success. For many years Woodrow Wilson wore a scarf pin a miniature of the great seal of the United States. Why? Simply because 18 stood out all over it â€" 13 stars, 13 stripes, 13 aiTows, 13 olives, 13 letters in the motto, "E Pluribus Unum." Columbus first sighted the islands oflf the coast of North America oh Friday, and he left Europe on Fri- day; left the West Indies for the re- turn trip to Spain on Friday; ar- rived at Palos Friday, March ISth; returned to land for the first time on the actual American continent, Fri- day, November 22, 1493; discovered Cuba, Friday June 13, 1494, and S. America, Friday, August 3rd. So might the lucky history of 18 run on indefinitely. Throw fear to the winds. Engage berth 13 for a trip on Friday the 13th and If it costs $13.13 for the journey, be glad â€" that it doesn't cost ndore! Some people believe If the wish they make On a wish-bone Or load of hay fails. It is plenty of time To pray. Daylight saving is founded on the old Indian idea of cutting off one end of the blanket and sewing it on the other end to make it longer. â€" o â€" Son (to his father) â€" How many kinds of wood are used in making a match?

An elderly man reported in his in- come tax form that his wife bad a new baby. Aha! said the Income de- partment, we must look into this. So they did, and his wife had and they had to give bim exemption, according to Hugh D. Patterson, collector for Toronto. Aâ€" C Contractors Razed It There was another man who had ac- counting trouble. He wrote in to the department that he was in a quandary on account of contractors. Desiring above all to keep his business In order and ever before his eye he had kept his books by noting up l:ig cash aud sales on a piece of paper which he had g'ued to the wall of his shop. Desiring to make some changes in his shop he had in contractors, and, before he could say "income tax," the contractors snatched his wall awa.\ with his "books" still glued to It. The Income tax department made I~ him promise. Mr. Patterson said, to ''keep proper books". DWARF FLOWERS In the smaller types of easily grown flowers are alyssum, white and dainty and useful for edging. These will grow in partial shade and make excellent edging plants. Portulaca is a spreading plant with bright yel- low, red and pink wax-like flowers. It thrives in bright sunshine and dry soil. Nasturtiums, marigolds, calen- dulas and petunias will complete a good garden of easily-grown annual- flowers. These are all useful for edging beds or walk.<!. CULTIVATION During the early part of the sea- son a little cultivation every week will help plants along wonderfully. The purpose is two-fold. Unsightly weeds are killed and valuable mois- ture is conserved. Growth is hur- ried along, Later on as the flowers or vegetables develop, it will not be necessary to cultivate so often. Some- times a mulch of short straw or grass clippings is used to retain moisture during the summer. This mulch is simply spread over the ground be- tween the plants. It keeps the under- lying soil moist, open and free from weeds. SPREAD OUT VEGETABLES Several sowings of each vegetable are advi.sed. Otherwise all mature at the same time and then there will be a feast or a famine. After all, with such things as radish, spinach, peas, corn or practically anything else for that matter, the time they are really worth eating is when they are fresh, that it just mature, and FEET HURT? '•" ^ 50' tACN taken right out of the garden. They must be quickly grrown and used im- mediately when they have reached the proper size. These vegetables will deteriorate whether they are left in storage or ripening in the vege- table rows. To avoid this sort of thing, the good gardener has his vegetables coming along continuous- ly, a few feet of lettuce and baby carrots and beets ready for the table all season.

Dr. Skeels, psychologist for the Iowa State Board of Control, has discov- ered that underprivileged children, taken from inadequate environment and placed in foster homes, respond to love. Interest and comfort by re- markable Intellectual gains. Duller In Poor Surroundings Ho finds no correlation between the intelligence of true parents and their children, but notes the longer imall boys and girls remain in poor sur- roundings, the duller they become. He points out that If these children are removed early enough to foster homes ttey hare a good chance to reach nor- mal or superior mental achievement. Dr. Wellman has recorded that higher Intelligence levels are the rule rather than exception following the stimulating atmosphere of nursery schools. Significantly, during summer vacations at home, without the incen- tive of school and Influence of com- panionship, children show little or no development. The Best Type of School Miss Wellman studied the later pro- gress of many boys and girls •Who re- ceived careful and sympathetic early training and discovered those trans- fert-ed to progressive Institutions of this type continued to galh in Intelli- gence, while those who entered less progressive sohools lost considerable ground. "Children thrive best," Dr. Wellman concludes, "in schoolg where they are taught to think for thfmaelves instead of obeying blindly. 'T&ey do best in groups with children with capabUiUes aa great or better than thefi* owif.'* HAPPy ROLLING WITH OGDEN'S: If you're looking for a keen porfn«r 'in lollins -your- own, rtep out with Ogden's Fine Cut Ggorette Tobacco.

The big game oblig- ingly comes Into the cities. In Abercorn, capital of Northern Rhodesia, a motorist driving along the main street jammed on his brakes â€" and then accelerated hurriedly â€" when he saw a leopard standing near the pavement, a few yards from the Gov- ernment House and the shopping cen- tre. The capital has been suffering lately from the activities of leopards In the vicinity of the town. Shortly after the motorist's experience a leo- pard, believed to be the one he saw, was trapped and killed. A sum of |25 is paid to anyone who kills a leopard. At Sylhet, .4ssam, a tiger walked into a tea garden. The tiger fancied a worker, who retaliated with a spade. He wasn't very successful, and was badly mauled before other workers kil- led the tiger with picks and spades. OGDEN'S F I N t CUT Yarn Made From Wool and Flax Opene Up Many Kew Commercial roeiibilitiee The production of yarns and fabj rics from a mutture of flax and woqj has been engaging the attention <X. tie staff of the Textile Department! of the t'niversity at Leeds, Englan;dC! for some months past. As a resiifcil considerable commercial possibilitiMf are visualized, especially in produc^^ Ing novelty dress materials which win be cbekp and yet of good appeaiJ ance. Low-Co«t Procaases The cheapness is due to the pro* duction by low-cost processes of a flax fibre that readily blends with wool, 'fhe fibre is also said to bel suitable for blending with mungo, in place of cotton, giving increased tensile strengrth. The fibre has char- acteristics similar to cotton, and pat- terned fabrics are readily obtained in the blend. Higher Fabric Yield Instead of the retting process of] treating the flax, which occupies a] period of weeks, the fibre is pro-! duced by an acqua-mechanical pro-l cess which takes only a few hours.! In addition, it is said to produce a| higher fabric yield, which makes fori its cheapness. A director of the Lancashire firm of textile machinery makers and a Canadian textile engineer have ia vented the processes, and their ex- periments in producing flax fibre have stretched over a period of four years. A Lancashire firm of textile machinery makers, which has "ievel oped machinery for producing the flax fibre, controls the processes. mm. low *-«-4S-v-««.i<*- â-  ^f '•*•â- Â»; Here is the tire sensation of 1938.
