Gently. 1t was the destruction of cedar

there is more danger of the cedars be-

but the chances of detecting the
worm on cedars are much smaller than
on other trees. On naples and trees
OF that nature as soon as the worm be-
gins to work, the leaves begin to dry
up. On a cedar the worms may work
for a long time before they are dis

there were no bagworms on the tree,

The tree was probably eight feet in

would inspect their cedar trees, they
would find similar condition.

Denver. July "Spooning is no
crime 1t should be encouraged. The
city should provide long shady lanes
and benches for lovers. John J. Alex
ander OF Chicago doesn't know what
he is talking about"
Thus yaliantly does Dr. PAUL S.
Hunter of the state board of health
come to the defense of the love smit-
ten. He denies every allegation that
Alxander made when he addressed 500
young women recently at an interna-
tional Sunday school conference and
said spooning is degrading. He said
girls should not allow it. DR.. Hunter
proves his contention by quoting
Shakespeare.
"The Bard of Avon says that all the
world loves a spooner--especially wo-
men. Spooning is a natural recrea-
tion.
''No man. especially one In the vigor
of adolescence refuses to spoon. II
a married man does not spoon with
his wife, he is busy spooning with
some other woman. Cessation Of
spooning is the sure mark of the be
ginning of the end of matrimonial fe-
llcity.
