the camp on the Calapooia twenty
years before. Only his eyes had re-
mained unchanged. knd these were
as cold and cruel as ever.
If Holmes appearance had changed

morning in his young garden and be-
gins to pick squash bugs, cucumber
beetles, potato bugs, and such slugs

more good than poison could do in
three days, says writer in the Amer

Pour boiling hot water into the tin
holding these insects to make sure
they are killed. Go the rounds every
morning. Do not wait until after
school, or late in the day, because they
have feasted and crawled away to
sleep and rest-most Of them. Do not
try to pick them at noon because they
hide underground or behind leaves to
get out Of the hot sun. But bright
and early in the morning they come
out with the sparkling dew to get
busy and eat the good things you
have planted. Get up an hour earlier

BREAK IN SIXTH
Thomas J. Tierney, Leader
In the Sixth District,
Revolts

The Republican club in the Sixth
district. one of the IL gears in the G.
q. r. machine is doomed to destruc-
t3on. Thomas j. Tierney the only
Napublican candidate ever successful
in that district, has turned against the
administration and is working tooth
and nail Tor the election of J. R.
Whalen,s the Democratic candidate for
alderman. The fact is clearly indi-
Gated by the usual election betting in
the Sixth district giving odds ranging
from 2 to / to 8 to that Thomas
Conner. the Republican candidate, will
be beaten. There are no takers.
Mr.. Tierney defeated the Democra-
tic candidate in the Sixth district in
1915 by majority of 118. 1t was a
feat that had never before been ac-
complished in that district. but when
the time for passing out the favors
arrived Tierney, was ignored and all
were handed to Sheriff Thomas Cum
'ninsham. the district chairman. 1t
WAS the beginning of the latter's
career as district leader and he gave
Tierhcy full credit for his successful
start
Before T1erney had served the first
year Of his term John T. King dis
liked his idea in speaking independ-
emily upon the Lake Torpedo Boat
.connpany's petitions for closing two
etreets In the vicinity of the plant.
King reprimanded Tierney and it was
believed In political circles that al
had been forgotten,
But after the election last year the
council committee appointments were
made and Mr.. Tierney was given q
. place on the miscellaneous committee
q position less in Importance thar

democratic aldermen.
Now MIR. Terney announces publicly

them.

already beginning to show. The

club are sadly depleted and the dis.
