GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY
Crowd the Front Pews. Adver-
tise Your Belief. Go to Church.

III HEN you GO TO CHURCH Sunday MARCH RIGHT
wv UP TO THE FRONT PEWS. Don't take a seat in
the rear of the church. In many churches some
~worshipers make for the rear pews as if they were ashamed
to be seen. Is there anything dishonorable in being seen
in church? If you go to a theatre you are proud to be seen
in the front rows. CROWD THE FIRST PEWS OF HI
CHURCH.
There certainly is nothing unmanly in going to church.
1t pays you spiritually. 1t pays you materially. The church
environment helps the business environment. The church
teaching helps every man to think clearly and to think cor
rectly. The church commandments are only the command
ments of health and mind.
Statistics show that communities with the greater mum
Der of churches are prosperous. The people, as a whole, are
HAPPY N ONTEN If you have neglected going to
church, don't let another Sunday pass without making a
visit to the house of God.
God is ~forgiving. He is patient. But his patience may be
exhausted if a man continually ignores him. You IGNORE
OFFEND GOD when you stay away from church. You
like to see your children GO TO CHURCH and Sunday
school. The children will be DOUBLY IMPRESSED with
the Importance of attending church if they see the father in
church.

KILL FLIES AND SAVE LIVES

Kin at once every fly you can find
and burn his body.
Observers say that there are many
reasons to believe there viii be more
flies this season than for a number of
years.
The killing Of just one fly now
means there win be billions and tril-
lions less next summer.
Clean up your own premises; see
and insist that your neighbors do like
wise.
Especially clean aout-of-the-way-
places, and every nook and Granny.
Flies viii not go where there is
nothing to eat, and their principal
diet is too filthy to mention.
The fly is the tie that binds the
unhealthy to the healthy
The fly has no equal as a germ "car-
rier"; as many as five hundred million
germs have been found ia and on the
body Of a single fly.
It is definitely known that the fly
is the carrier Of the germs 0f ty- /
phoid fever; it is widely believed that /
It is also the carrier Of other dis

RECIPES FOR KILLING FLIES

The United States government
makes the following suggestions for
the destruction of house flies: Formal
dehyde and sodium salicylate are the
best two fly poisons. Both are super
Tor to arsenic. They have their adj
yantages for household use. They are
not poison to children; they are con-
venient to handle. their dilutions are
simple and they attract the flies.
Preparation of Solutions
A farmaldehyde solution of approx
mately the correct strength may be
made by adding three teaspoonfuls of
the concentrated formaldehyde solu-
ton, commercially known as formalin,
to a pint of water. Similarly, the
proper concentration of sodium sail
cylate may be obtained by dissolving
three teaspoonfuls Of the pure chemi-
cal "a p0Wder) IN a pint of water.
Containers for Solutions
4 container has been found c0nven-
lent for automatically keeping the So

drink. An ordinary, thin-walled drink
ing glass is filled, or partially filled,
with the solution, A saucer, or small
plate, in which is placed a piece of
white plotting paper cut the size of
the dish, is put bottom up over the
glass. The whole is then quickly in
verted, match placed under the edge
of the glass, and the container is ready
for use. AS the solution dries out of
the saucer, the liquid seal at the edge
of the glass is broken and more liquid
flows into the lower receptacle. Thus
the paper is always kept moist
Other Simnle Preyentives
Any odor pleasing to man is offens-
rye to the fly, and vice versa, and will
drive them away.
Take five cents worth of oil of Law
ender, mix it with the same quantity
OF water, put in common glass atom
izer and spray it around the rooms
where flies are. Tn the dining room,
spray it lavishly, even on the table
linen. The Odor is very disagreeable
to flies but refreshing to most people.
GNAAAAASAAAAS AAAB AAUiACkbSy HCLhOLIUpG
and white clover are offensive to flies.
They especially dislike the odor Of
honeysuckle and hop blossoms.
According TO a French scientist,
flies have intense hatred for the color
blue. Rooms decorated in blue will
help to lcEHp out the flies.
Mix together one tablespoonful of
cream, ONE Of ground black pepper and
one OF brown sugar. This mixture is
poisonous to flies. Put IN saucer,
darken tine room except one window
and in that set the saucer.
To clear the house of faies, burn py-
rethrum powder. This stupefies the
hies, but they must be swept up and
burned.
For Stables, Barns and Out-Of Doors
Borax is especially valuable around
farms and out of doors. One pound
of borax to twelve bushels of manure
witt be found desirable as a poison
without injuring its maHurial qualities
or farm stock. Scatter the borax over
the manure and sprinkle with water.
