PAGE sr. THÉ HERMISTON HERALD, HERMISTON. OREGON. Gas, Chemicals Effective As Mosquito Exterminator 2. T fun amp r,°n daxe sons b, tion P 1 frie, us acaiillni Walk out on the lawn on a moist day or saunter among the shrubs and, presto! you may stir up a blitz krieg. One hundred of the 150 varieties of the family culcidae—the hungry mosquito to you—will swarm to the attack. You know the rest. Hordes of them have been, are now and will continue to raise mil- lions of welts on thousands of anat- omies. The best systems of defense against mosquito fleets have been outlined by W. E. Dickinson, Milwau kee, Wis., curator of lower zoology at the museum. In a special communique he gave directions for gas and chemical war fare to prevent the enemy from win ning on the garden party and picnic front. “Spread small heaps of pyreth rum powder strategically over the field of action," his order reads. “Light the powder and gas the en emy. If you have no pyrethrum powder engage in chemical assault by spraying field of action with mix ture of four ounces of creosol, one- third ounce of oil of mybrane and two quarts of kerosene.” In a second order he gives explicit the exposed rules for flanks. “Apply mixture of one ounce citron ella, one ounce spirits of camphor and one-half ounce of oil of cedar, or mixture of equal parts of castor oil, alcohol and either oil of lav- endar or oil of rose geranium.” In case of attack a third order decrees: “Strike hard, smash the enemy.” in "-n ‘ei ‘I P ealore ne Camp, T-unio, l this Destination Spokane Ft.

Some today would have us believe that the church has come to the sunset of its existence it no longer fills its place instiutions have in the world taken its place. Is that true? Jesus said “On this rock I will build my Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Young People’s meeting is at 7 o’clock. At 8 o’clock the pastor will bring a message entitled “Can the Ethiopian Change His Skin?” If you are not attending church and Sunday school elsewhere we in- vite you to worship with us.

Mercury Is Only Metal Common in Liquid Form TOWNSEND CLUB NEWS up some of the heavy silvery drop- lets of mercury that had spilled out? They were liquid, yet they did not wet the table’s surface. They scur ried elusively about; they defied your efforts to seize them. No won der the Romans christened that mys terious liquid argentum vivum and we today call it by the English translation of that same name— quicksilver. Many people do not recognize mercury as a metal simply because it is a liquid, writes Harry M. Day in Nature magazine. It is a true metallic element, none the less— just as much a metal as tin, zinc or lead. The fact that we usually see it as a liquid means simply that its melting point happens to fall below our ordinary temperatures; it is, strictly speaking, a molten metal. Professor Braune, at St. Petersburg, first succeeded in freezing it at 40 degrees below zero and recognized its true metallic properties. In its , low melting point mercury is unique, and out of its uniqueness arise many of its uses and indis pensable services to mankind. Presenting the Star Performer Golden Shell Motor Oil What You Can Do Neighbors, who are musically in clined, occasion the most disputes. A New York judge, according to news commentator Helen Rowland, ruled with the wisdom of Portia that a man could keep his radio going night and day if he wished but that if one note crossed the air shaft into a neighboring apartment he could be charged with disturbing the peace. People who know their rights may collect liberally upon this knowl edge. A widow in the Bronx and her two daughters received $100,000 from a sheriff's jury in a slander ac tion against a neighbor who had talked with such effect that a police man engaged to one of the girls broke it off. A manager of a New Jersey country club, who had been charged by a member with forgery, was tried, acquitted, and then won a judgment of $20.000, for false ar rest. The “haymaker” that an Omaha detective landed on the jaw of a robbery suspect proved a boom- erang for a court awarded the man $1.213 damages for the physical pain and indignities he had suffered.
