The Beetles STAYED.

Recently carload of beetle-infested
potatoes arrived in Los Angeles. The
startling thing about this was that the
car came from Idaho, where the potato
beetle Is extinct.
An investigation was made by Fred
erick Maskew, state quarantine officer
of California. and 1t was found that
the same car had been used little
earlier TO carry load of potatoes out
of Colorado, where the beetle flour

were removed, the beetles lurked in
out-of.the-way corners, waiting for
fresh load. The department of agricul-

to Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Kaye, Jr.,

white wedding bells and wealth of
white ch-ysanthemums. The library,
where the receiving party, including
Mr.. and Mrs. Johnston, Mrs. Richards
and Mr.. and Mrs. Kaye, stood, artisti-
cally marked the prevailing effects
with an unique arrangement of we'd
ding bells and orange blossoms in the
midst of long-stemmed chrysanthem-
ums and vines of evergreens. The
drawing room, with the lights of
electroliers seemingly shaded by white
roses, repeated the white and green
tones, and the dining room adjoining
was floral study in the same color
ing. Above the table which had as
centerpiece a mound Of white chry-
santhemums, was a circle of a small
wedding bells, and in wider circle
upon the lace-covered surface, were
silver candlesticks, with chrysanthe-
mum shades. Between this the pretty
effect was heightened by cut glas
compotes, with bows of tulle as re-
ceptacles for white and green bon
bons.
