Solid oak dining room suite, Common Moth Is A Drepd Enemy The Pest Should Be Asphyxiated Before It Lays And Rums Your Wardrobe?. 0£ the 10,000 odd insect pests said to infest the North American contin- ent, the common clothes moth is per- haps best known and most reviled. Yet the moth is, except as an access- ory after the fact, rather an innocent creature. It has 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 its 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 lias cast off its case. Before The Eggs Are Laid To cut the moth off in 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 her, or put her or her progeny into a lethal chamber. The modern moth repellent differs much from the Victorian moth bail which was composed of coal tar naph- thalene of varying purity, and was only very little less anathema to most Bâ€"D large buffet, extension table, 6 leather upholstered, chairs and a fine 32 piece dinner set. *C7 Afl English oak dining room suite, large buffet, square extension table, china cabinet, and 6 leather seat chairs.

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, however, quite harmless to humans. Fumigation Often Needed For things such as furniture, drapes, rugs, 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 fumigators or dry- cleanersâ€"and most up-to-date dry- cleaning establishments now offer a combined cleaning, fumigation and storage service.

FEET HURT? >wr keel (*fv *** PaH | Smiles and f __ , „ % $ Chuckles & v A Friday the Thirteenth of May Only once in 1938 comes Friday the 13th. So frightened are the American people at the specter of the figure “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 arithmetic 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 itâ€"-13 stars, 13 stripes, 13 arrows, 13 olives, 13 letters in the motto, “E Pluribus Unum.” Columbjis first sighted the islands off the coast of North America on 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 13th; 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 13 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 more! â€"oâ€" Some people believe If the wish they make On a wish-bone Or load of hay fails, It is plenty of time To pray. â€"oâ€" 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.

There is no correlation between the intelligence of children and their par- ents; and the influence of environ- ment determines growth or decline of children’s intellectual development, according to, the report of a 15-year study of children by Dr. Harold Skeels and Dr. Beth Wellman, of the Iowa University Child Welfare Station. 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 t,o love, interest add comfort by re- markable intellectual gains. Duller In Poor Surroundings He finds no correlation between the intelligence of true parents and their children, but notes the longer small 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 they have 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 hoys and girls who re- ceived careful and sympathetic early training and discovered those trans- ferred to progressive institutions of this type continued to gain in intelli- gence, while those who entered less progressive schools lost considerable ground.
