One of the most successful ways of
checking cutworms is achieved by the
use oil poisoned oait or bran mash. Tho
bait is easily prepared by dipping fresn-
ly-cut clover or some succuient yegeta-
ton in solution of poison and scatter
ing handfuls in places frequented by
the worms so they will go to the lure.
To make the other preparation, mix d
small amount of white arsenic or Pan
green in each pound of bran as will be
needed for size of patch, sweeten BY
adding syrup or cheap molasses, an
saturate it all with water. The juice
of q lemon or orarge also mixed in K
is claimed to make it more savory to
insects which operate just above the
surface of the ground. Scatter this
mixture where the worms occur, placing
1t out on the ground in the evening SC
it will be in readiness for the night anc
not dry too quickly. The caterpillars
will then eat it in preference TO attack
ing the plants, and consequently get a
dose TO cause ther death. Care should
be taken to keep poultry and other farm
animals, as well as children, from hav-
ing access to it.
Protecting plants with old tins cans
having tops and bottoms removed, CT
by other devices, is frequently employ
ed by gardeners. Tarred cardboard dist~
each being provided with a slit cut to the
center so that the card can be slipped
around the stem Of the plant at the sur
face of the ground are quite inexpensive
and furnish lasting guard against at.

SUPERNATURAL is
PART OF RELIGION
Is Spoken OF i'm All the Books of the
Bible Says Rev. John
o. MOSier.

1.-The true element in the Christian
religion is the supernatural. We can
not be true Christians in the sense OF
the New Testament without believing
in the supernatural" said Rev. J. o.
Mosier pastor of Mizpah Evangelical
church, Sunday evening in his sermon
on the subject. The Supernatural in
Religion"
we find that the supernatural ele-
ment is spoken of in all the books of
the Bible in some form or another.
In Genesis God speaking TO Abraham
as & man talks to another; in Exodus
the giving of the Mamma for 40 years;
in numbers we read of the brazen
serpent and the healing that came to
all who needed il, which must have
been supernatural elements manifest
ed everywhere.
when Jesus was here He turned
water into wine, gave sight TO the
blind, unstopped the deaf ears. made
the lame 10 walk and raised the dead,
all of which was supernatural.
Taking the supernatural out of re
ligiOn leaves il with a form, but with
no life. 1t is like shutting off the
current. il leaves the machinery all
intact but no power The church of
today needs power and this power is
pronounced through the Holy Spirit"

MEN OF VISION ARE
NEEDED IN COUNTRY
Honor OF American Citizenship should
Not BE Lightly Be
slowed.

Citizens Of the Times" was the
subject of the sermon delivered by
Rev. Chas. A. Decker, pastor of the
First Baptist church Sunday evening.
The services were of a patriotic char
acter and the choir sang sevral APP
propriate numbers including the ma
tional anthem and Kipling's Recess
siOnal."
Rev. Decker said that the citizens
needed in these times, as in all others,
are men who have knowledge, SYM
pathy. courage and vision. No real
and useful citizen will bewail his lot
as did Hamlet when he cried 1.-The
times are out of joint, . cursed
spite that ever l was born to set them
right" He dares 10 look the facts
in the face. What he sees is often
very discouraging, but he knows he
cannot act wisely until he knows the
whole situation. The men OF 10 took
all the facts into consideration be-
fore they signed the memorable dOcu-
ment, and now we know they acted
their part well. &,
This country does well to welcome
all who wish to come here 10 make
homes and help To further the prog
ress of humanity. But she should de-
mand Of such future citizens
knowledge of her institutions and a
sympathy with them which VIII make
them helpful citizens Of the times.
Naturalization. including as il does
the ballot, is a precious boon, and
should be guarded with all the care
its Importance deserves The ignorant
and unsympathetic cannot be good
citizens especially in these times of
great achievements and great crises.
one of the great needs of the times
is an increasingly large number of
citizens who have vision as we'll as
practical sense and a grasp OF every
day affairs. We need men of vision
more than we need men of war. a
sensible idealist does more for his
country than "a great military genius.
The country does not advance by
the brutal force of military power.
but by the quiet compelling power of
great ideals. We should honor the
seers thinkers and idealists of the
past much more than we do the war
riOTS important as they are in their
place and time The Chinese put the
lighters NTH in the scale OF import
ance. they put the prophets first And
in this they do wisely.
The men who. know what America
ought to do are the men Of the hour.
if coupled with that knowledge they
have sympathy. courage and vision.

Detective Ellis Diver is carrying the

broke the finger while engaged in a
battle with a desperate criminal was
exploded when he confessed that the
accident resulted from trying to

EVIL HABITS ARE
MEMS WORST ENEMY
Get Grip on One That is Hard TO
shake. Says Rev. George
VIM. Allison.

'In the Tolls Of Habit" was the
topic OF the sermon last evening at
Hope Presbyterian chapel by the min
lister. George William Allison. In part
he said:
There is a story by Mary Shelley
called 'Frankenstein,' which relates an
imaginary creation Of a giant similar
10 man who was then endowed with
life. This gigantic creature then de-
manded Of his scientific creator the
creation Of mate, that ne might be-
get progeny. This was refused by
Frankenstein. who then becomes the
victim OF a series Of tragic incidents
both directly and Indirectly.
There are more 'FrankenSteins' in
the world than the imaginary one Of
Mary Shelleys. Every man who is sub
hitting to the creation Of an evil habit
is putting himself in exactly the posi-
ton Of the one who was prosecuted
By this monster. He will sooner or
later find himself in the throes Of
forces which he is no longer able to
control and which are wrecking his
life.
I'm the vatican at Rome, this same
theme is impaled in marble in the
famous LAGOON Group. which shows
father and his two sons struggling
10 free themselves from the coils of a
powerful serpent which are slowly
yet certainly crushing them 10 death.
So with habit. Once in the tolls a
man finds himself cruelty helpless.
There is no escape
Occasionally 4 man will declare his
freedom and reform. This again re-
minds us of an ancient legend, that of
PrOmethus. PrOmethus was bound to
a rock on account of rendering ser
vice 10 a man contrary to the wishes
of the gods. Here each day a vulture
was sent TO devOur his liver, which
Genus caused TO grow again each
night. So he was forced to endure
this unspeakable agony without end.
Here is the picture of the man who in
a moment of decision decides to re-
form. But with the coming of anOth-
er day he is forced by habit to endure
the shame of fallin~ into his old deg
relation again in spite of himself.
He is in the tolls Of habit. 'gripped by
coils as cold as stony steel" We pity
those whom habit controls, who have
become the creature of their circum-
stances rather than the master. More
10 be Ditied are they than blamed, yet
they are not without responsibility.
I'VE see thus how literature and
art confirm the Christian gospel 1t
was because of the habit of sin incar-
mated in his fleshly body that Paul
was forced TO cry out that the things
he wished to do he failed to do; while
things he wished to avoid. those he
habitually did. We have all felt our
selves within the tolls of sin. And
there is no other way of freedom than
lin the name OF Jesus And the man
who would be free, can be free only
as he avoids the formation Of habits
which degrade. For habit is tyrant;
while, IT'S as easy to be heroes as 20
sit the idle slave of a legendary vir-
tue carved upon our fathers grave as
the poet has il. Hear PauPs further
words For freedom did Christ set
us free; stand fast therefore. and be
not entangled again in the yoke or
bondagen"
The sermon i'm the morning was up
on the theme 'LiberatOrs and Free
DOM" and was of a patriotic nature.
