THE THEATERS

The BijOu was crowded again last
night by an enthusiastic audience.
The bill presented is an excellent
one in every way, for the pictures
were good and the vaudeville acts
went well, especially those of John
son and Wells and the Reece Trio.
The film entitled, "He Who Laughs
Last" was particularly funny.
Johnson and Wells were seen to
great advantage last night. Miss
Wells voice was certainly not up 10
the standard, but the pair more than
made up for this by the singing OF
Johnson and their combined dancing.
Some great effects were obtained
by the use of manipulated lights

The old theory that mo-
lasses was the best bait for flies has
been exploded. Experiments by the
Department of Agriculture have shown
that bread saturated with milk is 100
per cent more effective in attracting
flies than is molasses or other sweets.
1t is not improbable that a better
bait than bread and milk will be dis
covered by one of the contestants
who is out for the Stars first prize,
and in this event he is sure to win
recognition not only with local health
officials, but with DR.. Howard and the
experts of the Department of Agricul-
ture.
Ways of Killing Trapped Flies.
The problem of killing flies, after
they have been caught in traps, is one
that will be worked out in different
ways, but a valuable suggestion as to
this feature has been offered by DR..
Murray.
A pinch of sulphur, according to DR..
Murray, ignited under a fly trap will
produce sufficient fumes to kill all tr-
insects imprisoned. Drowning the
flies is another method
Not only has the Stars contest led
to a preliminary regime of invention
but Washington stores are getting
out their stocks of fly traps and dis.
playing them conspicuously. A drug
store in Georgetown has given up an
entire window to a display of poison

of being a pair of wooden people
owing to the jerky-like movements.
The Recess went well, as usual,
La Petite Laurie being a big feat
ture. Her endeavors to tie herself
in a knot were successful, and she
was loudly applauded. Her musical
number on the Xylophone also went
well, but it would seem that it was
too lengthy, as the audience gave the
impression that they were itching to
applaud long before it was over.

Contest will open Monday, July "a,
and will close at IL a. m. Saturday,
August 8.
Entrants must be children under six
teen years of age.
Flies must be delivered, after being
killed, between the hours of 10 and
II a. m. at any one of the following
six stations of the Associated Cnari-
ties: Georgetown, Central, Southwest,
Northeast, Southeast and Northern.
The stations will not be open Sunday,
July 80, and no flies will be received
on that day.
Specially made boxes in which the
flies must be delivered have been pro-
Vided, free of cost by the George p.
Killian Manufacturing Company of ASP
Pennsylvania avenue northwest, and
can be had upon application at any
of the above-named stations.
The names, ages and addresses of
the contestants must be carefully writ

The flies will be collected daily and
taken to the District building, where
they will be counted under the super
vision of DR.. Arthur L Murray of the
health department.
A separate card for each contestant
will be kept on file at the health de-
partment, which will show the daily
progress made in the compaign.
Flies caught on sticky paper cannot
be counted, but they may be caught in
traps, "swatted" or poisoned and eX-
terminated by drowning, the use of
sulphur fumes or other means.

No Way to Eradicate Pest.
Sprays cannot be used to kill the
eEls of the fly because it deposits its
eggs in the meat of the fruit. There
is not at present known to the science
Of entomology a natural enemy of the
fly which could keep it reduced to
where the damage would be nominal.
Even the remedy of destroying an en-
tire fruit crop would fail because the
fly attacks wild fruits and berries as
readily as the domesticated varieties.
1t also attacks vegetables of all kinds
which have skins, like tomatoes and
peppers.
THE female displays the greatest
cunning imaginable in depositing its
eggs A large, meaty peach will con-
tain from twenty to forty eggs, while
a small one of inferior quality will
have only five or six. Then a small
berry the size of pea will contain
one egg, just enough so that the mag
got when Matched will have sufficient
food to feed upon and will finally de.
velOp into a fly. This insect seems to
devote it's entire existence to the pro-
pagation of its species. 1t is busy its
entire life depositing eggs in fruit.
"The fact that it is so close to Cali
fornia and can be so readily introduce
ed, and the fact that it destroys every
kind of fruit it attacks make it dan.
gerous. If we knew of a way to fight
it with any possible chance of eradi
eating it, there would be no need foi
such concern regarding the enforce.
ment of the guarantees.
Situation Under Control.
81 believe we have the situation I'M
der control, and believe that if some
OF the flies do not get out before the
quarantine was put into effect the pest
will not reach California from Homo
lulu. There is danger and constant
danger, too, of its getting into the
United States through the Atlantic
Coast In that event it might event
ually reach California across the con
tinent
But when it comes the State Hor-
ticultural Commission, the fruit grow
ers and other interests which have the
fruit industry at heart will wage a war
on the fly which will, if not eliminate
it entirely, reduce it to a minimum
ard therefore prevent it from becom
ing a pest"
The Mediterranean fruit fly is about
the size of the ordinary house fly, bu
looks somewhat smaller. Its genera
color is ochreous yellow.
The living fly is very active, run
ming over the foliage or fruit on the
trees, with its wings dropping down
on the sides of the body. When dis
tjrbed it has a short flight, seldom go
ing more than few yards, and often
returning to the same spot.

Iron Man Lange is slated to pitch
for the Sox, though Ed Walsh is a possi-
BILE selection. Walker probably will work
on the slab for the other side.

not learn a great deal that will help them
to promote baseball in the Orient.

James ]. Callahan hit the ball. Baseball
affects many people in many ways.
mnen the cold wave struck the park as
the seventh inning closed several hundred
fans moved from the left field bleachers
over to the sunny right field seats for
protection The wave affected Jack Sher-
idan's voice, too, and he had to whisper
his decisions in the last two innings.
Andy Mcconnell sprained his ankle
watching Ping" Bodie catch fly ball.
1t was a short one to right field, and
Mcconnell chased back into the grass,
the ball gauged. he turned his ankle
and had to be helped off the field. Tan
nehill took his place at second.
Ping Bodie had three distinct
chances at the bat to cover himself
with glory. but 1t was not his day for
gaining glory.
Corhan had ten chances at shortstop-
ping and foozled on but one of them.
Unfortunately his mistake helped the
Nationals TO two of their runs. He
made a brilliant play on Cunningham's
sharp Erounder back of second in the
fourth inning, and his throwing was
perfect every time.
According to Manager McAleer. Wal
ter Johnson. his $1,000 a year twirler, is
still ailing. His pay is about $500 a
week, and such man is expected to
win a couple of games each week to
earn 1t. Johnson will have to finish
with a rush to make good.
