over there was cheering one. No
new cases have developed and il is
thought that no more will show up.
Unless some new cases appear the
quarantine will probably be lifted
on the bridge by the first of the week
and mails will probably be resumed.
All of the cases which thaye develop
ed.are being carefully nursed and there
is little or no dangerof any further out
break.
New road machines have been re-
ceived and sent to Cass and Union
districts where they are to be used
during the present season. The other

LADYBUG VS. SAN JOSE SCALE.
The U. ). Agricultural Department has
a Scheme to Exterminate the Fruit
SanurOa

Sc0urge.
The Department of Agriculture
is preparing to fight the ravages OF
the San Jose scale throughout the
country with it's natural enemy, the
ladybug, brought from the interior
of China.
Assistant Botanist Marlatte has
just returned from the Orient, where
he sought the original home of the
dreaded scale Far in the interior
OF the latter country, where Europe
an plants had not penetrated, he
found the scales and also the lady.
bugs, which kept the scales in sub
lection and permitted the native
plants to flourish.
Mr.. Marlette started home with d
good supply of these ladybugs but
only l6 survived on arrival in this
country and IA of these subsequent
ly died. The two remaining, howev-
er, were nursed carefully by the gov
eminent with view of fighting the
scale in the same manner as in Chi
ma. There now are 80 of them re
curing the constant gathering Of
scales from the department grounds
for food. While not expecting the
scales to be exterminated from this
country, experts are planning to at
tack them with the increasing breed
OF their natural enemies.
The Experiment Station has beer
fighting the scale in several sections
of the state where its ravages have
caused the loss of thousands of dol
lars. Reports that the scale has in.
creased very much in some of the
Southern counties are coming into
the Station.

TOO MUCH CONLEY
PATR oLMAN MOSES ZIMMERMAN
HAS EXPERIENCE OF HIS
LIFE LAST NIGHT
STRENUOUS FILIAL DEVOTION
While Endeavoring to Adjust SOME
Family Differences He Is At
tackled by Eight Sturdy
Young Children.

Patrolman Moses Zimmerman encoun-
tered fihaI affection in large quantities
last night that nearly caused him the
loss Of several sections of facial epidermis
to say nothing of many tufts of valuable
hair. When he and officer Swanson were
patroling their beats last evening they
We're approached by woman in state
of hyper-agitatIon over the conduct of
her husband, one William ConIey, who
resides on L Orient street near Glencoe.
MRS. Conley managed, after some effort,
being about half cut Of breath after a six
blocks sprint to say that her husband
had been mishehaxing, himself, both as
to language and deeds and she added
entreaties that the officers should go to
her home and assist in the quieting Of
her spouse.
Officer Zimmerman started out on his
task Of reconciliation and soon found
paternal affection in the Conley domicie
was OF the strenuous character. Mrs
Conley is the mother of eight children
Of varying ages and physical ability,
which they apparently syndicated for the
time being on Officer Zimmerman to good
effect. While he endeavored to arbitrate
the matter with the large ones in front
of him, the smaller and more agile mem
bers of the family made a t1ank move
ment and attacked him from the rear.
Iney clambered up the official back, and
twined their arms around the official

ing the official breastworks rom the

The result of the dashing onslaught was
that Officer Zimmerman was stretched

younger generation of Conleys endeavor-

at him
For q time it appeared as if the Conley
household would be able to resist the at

HINTS FROM GREAT LIFE
CHAPLAIN GROVES breaches ON
PERSONALITY OF WASHINGTON.


Memorial services, in the form of
patriotic programme. were held last night
IN the Park Avenue Congregational
church, under the auspices of the choral.
association. Chaplain Leslie r. Groves,
of the Fourteenth United States infantry.
presided over the meeting, in the abb
sence of the pastor, who was unable to
attend on account of illness Chaplain
Groves delivered short address on the
Life of Washington" His address was
in part as follows:
Patriotism in this country is sub
ject from which God is not excluded,
but intimately included, and for this yea
son it is appropriate that lessons of pa
trlotism should be taught in the church.
From the life of Washington there are
many lessons to be learned, but the one
that stands out most strongly is that of
disinterested patriotism. for Washington
was disinterested in all his actions. He
was no practical politician, serving his
country only in so far as his services
tended to benefit himself, but as the
servant of the people. Among all the
great names of this country, 1 think
with but one exception there is something
to be said which in a measure lessons
the greatness, but not so with Washings
ton, and his true greatness has brought
to his name honor and devotion exceed
ing all others.
"The question arises, To what extent
may patriotism develop without embrace
ing Christianity? Experience has taught
us that morality without religion soon
fades, and finally disappears, and this is
the great danger America has to contend
with today. We are each year becoming
a little more lax, and losing the firm
grip that our ancestors so GncompromiS-
ingly held in earlier days. Little by lit
tie we exact more of others on Sunday,
until it is no longer a sacred day of rest
and prayer for a great number, but
rather a day on which their efforts have
to be doubled. What has been the re-
suit? If you knew the young man Of
today as | know him, you would see
cause for alarm. If you knew the moral
tone of many that we are sending into
our newly acquired lands, you would feel
deeply panied, for you would readily see
that instead of civilizing the people, their
neral status will be lowered. The reme-
dy for all this is the incubation of the
lesson of the life of Washington into
the youth of the present day.
