Keeping pace with the rapid progress
>. ade recently in the development of
rvays, a landing stage has been de-
swoosh and swish before he hit the
hay. In every woodshed in the land
were strap« or strips of lath, with
which the little erring chaps were
shown the righteous path. Tired
father knew infrequent joys, his
lot was stern and sad, and knocking
sawdust from tho boys was all the
fun he had. And as he made his
offspring smart, he’d say, “My
little Hugh, this pains me in my in­
most heart more than it’s hurting
you. ’’
Old fashioned things are done
away; behind the woodshed door
the birchen rod that used to flay,
the strap, are seen no more. On
children now there’s no restraint,
no caustic words are said if gayly
they elect to paint their native vil­
lage red. For father joyrides in his
bus that’s made of costly tin; he
hasn’t time to raise a fuss o’er
every boyish sin. The woodshed
now has wider doors, that cars may
enter there, and from it come no
anguished roars of Alecks iu despair.

Smell to Lure Boll W eevil
To Its Death
Government chemists aro now at
work on a new method of attack on th«
cotton-boll weevil. An attempt is t<
l>o made to find out whether any odor
from the cotton plant attracts the wee­
vil, and just what it is. It is then
hoped to duplicate the odor in the lal>-
oratory, and lure the insect to its doom
with poisoned bait, if necessary.
