velopment; eggs, larvae or maggot
pupa and adult.
The eggs of the house fly are
smooth, while glistening bodies about
q twentieth of an inch in leigth and
oval in shape. Usually about twelve
hours after a female deposits a batch
of eggs, they hatch into the magot or
larval stage with which every one Is
familiar. After three to six days the
larvae migrate and burrow just under
the soil where they rest for about
three days, turning darker and form
ing a sac. This is known as the pu-
pal stage after which the fully grown
fly energies from the sac.
Flies do not travel very far and
usually remain within 200 or 800
yards of the breeding ground unless
carried by the wind. Therefore if
flies are found in a particular neigh
:borhood, it is very reliable indication
that people are careless in the handl-
ing Of garbage and other filth.
Fly prevention is much more sue
cessful than fly eradication. Fly
breeding is inevitable if Accommodations
of filth are permitted. Public dumps
constitute prolific source of these
insects.

PRESS COMMENT
Home Americanization.

Home AUGMENTATION.
Discipline in the average American
home is not regarded as altogether
simple in these days when the old
rules that childrea should be seen
and not heard, and should speak only
when spoken to, have become APP
parently obsolete. But discipline is
infinitely more difficult in homes where
the children are Americans and the
parents are foreign born. In these
cases there is frequently a pathetic
isolation for the father and mother,
particularly for the mother. The chill
dren pick up not only our language,
but our slang which is so difficult to
translate and even a contempt for
Old World ways and traditions.
Unable to understand all the new
interests and demands of their chill
dren, these parents fall back on their
faith in the American schools. do as
teacher says" is the order by which
they hope to train the children to
obedience. Unfortunately, they do not
know that what teacher says, and
ere tricked by the clever and rapidly
developing youngsters. The Survey
for Feb. II cites the example OF boy
who brought home his report card
with the prevailing grade of c. This
was in city where the grades ranged
from T, high, to d, low. Yet the boy
easily convinced his parents that C
was very good since 1t was near the
top of the alphabet. X, Y or z would
be bad, but not c.
1t is not enough to trust that these
children will come out all right in the
end through their own schooling.
They are losing the necessary pa
ternal discipline, the respect for prop
er authority and the fine things in
the homeland customs of their pa
rents. The only way to make the
safe and necessary connection be-
tween these foreign born parents and
their too-American children is by ed
ucating the Parents, too. Night
schools, day schools and home instruc-
ton are needed, with regular teach
ing staff instead of part-time or vol
unteer teachers. Many cities are al
ready giving special attention to these
foreign mothers, offering them day
instructor and helping them in many
ways to keep up with the Americana
cation Of their boys and girls. More
must be done, for their safety and that

Uncertainty of Northern Climate.

The news Of the blizzard that swent
the north and brought a cold wa e
that continues, is further. confirn1a
ton of the uncertainty of the northern
climate at this season of the year. II
also upholds the contentious Of Sonth
Florida that the season for our WISH
tors ought to be extended until the
middle of April or first CT May. Ger
ta.n!y, March should be spent in South
Florida by all who wish to escape tha
dangers Of sudden changes in tho
north. Everyone knows how bitter
are the chill days Of the latter part of
March and early April.
Staying In South Florida during the
winter is not a social lark. It is the
better part Of wisdom for those who
can afford to protect their health. #
is the practical thing to do.
Because some Of the society folk
come down here as part of their So
cial program and stay only q few
weeks. being guided solely by conven-
ton as to the date OF their return
Is no reason why those who come for
the benefit Of the climate should not
arrange to stay as long as climatic
dangers exist in the north. Most of
the society folks are quite wealthy
and have palaces in which thew can
take refuge from storms.
The majority of the people who come
here have only ordinary homes and #
is not so easy for them to avoid tho
cold blasts. They can best make
themselves comfortable by disregard

ciety folks and remain here NM

ing in full:
Dear Mr. Stewart: The labor of
uniting into still closer amity and
understanding the English speak
ing peoples of the world has a
significance of good to all Amer
leans and to all nations and races
of the world.
Destiny has made it a historical
fact that the English pseaking
peoples have been the instrument
through which civilization has
been flung to the far corners, Of
the globe l am impressed not so
much by the glory that English
speaking peoples may take to
themselves as by the profound
duties that God has thrust upon
them-duties of being restrained,
tolerant and just. These duties
will find their greatest recognition
in united, unshakable friendship
and understanding and oneness of
purpose-not for the exclusion
from brotherhood of others. but
for a better brotherhoo flowing
toward others.

of America IS summoned to assist
the world in building a workable.

SLUMP IN DEMAND
FOR CURB ISSUES
Price Movements Lessen in
Importance-Coal Group
Continues Irregular.

NEW YORK. Dec. s.-There we're
many interesting features in the trad
ing on the New York Curb Exchange
today, but price movements were OF
lessened Importance chiefly because Of
a marked decrease in the demand for
various groups of stocks that had
been active and strong in the past few
weeks. The coal group was irregular,
litigation over the absorption OF Lehigh
and Wilkes-Barre and the Farrell Coal
merger causing a curtailment of activi-
ties in Burns Brothers, which sold off
from yesterdays high level and was
traded in this morning at 3111 to BIZ.
Farrell Coal. however. after opening
at 1875 moved up to 10 and Glen
Alden was in fair demand selling at
43h to 43ss. The motor stocks were
prominent as they have been since the
beginning OF the week, Durant Motors
of Indiana being the most active of all
the industrial group as far as volume
OF business Is concerned, large trans
actions being made ranging from 13X
to 13k, the stock losing all the gain
made In yesterdays trading. Swift
International was influenced by the
various steps for ending the packers
strike and made a moderate advance.
Candy stocks were inactive and showed
a heavy tone, Sweets Company SELL
ing at ~ and United States Retail
Candy was traded in at S to 5k.
Philip Morris was in supply ranging
from Az to Az.
Conditions in the petroleum group
were moderately changed, many of
those stocks being in supply at con-
cessions, but the losses were not ex-
tensive enough to be regarded with
Importance. Standard Oil OF Indiana,
in which the dealings were again on
a large scale. showed a loss OF over
l point declining to S6h. and Interna-
tional Petroleum, which had been
strong earlier in the week, was sold
by some Of the traders and yielded to
16k. Maracaibo. another OF the tropi.
cal stocks, was also in supply with
