IS YOUR BOY at the age when long
evenings at home are tedious to him2
He doesn't care much about reading,
perhaps, and he Graves the con1pan-
ionship of others his age. You don't
want him on the streets. but that is
just where he will be if some diversion
is not offered him.
Why not give him a chance to learn
to play some musical instrument? If
he has a tendency or liking for mu-
sic, he should be encouraged to de-
velop it.
Boys all over the country are form
ing orchestras and bands, and your
boy would enjoy not only the music,
with his friends in his own home and
in theirs.
There is a complete line of band
instruments at the Jenkins Music
company. I noticed there a small
sized drummer's outfit that would not
take up much room. in the house, and
is large enough for orchestra use. 1t
is lots of fun to drum, and the Vic
trola furnishes an excellent opportun-
ity for practicing different efferts in
drumming.
Another item of especial interest to
the lad who longs for a saxaphone is
that the cases have been reduced at
Jenkins's, making the outfit cost less
than it did.
Let your boy learn to toot his own
horn, it will do him good-you won t
regret it-and in the meantime re-
ber-Jenkins

Committee will be presented by
members of the staff at the sixteenth

er of the Society-for Ethical Gull
ture of New York and professor in

Conditions of child employment in
certain highly industrialized forms OF
agriculture. such as beet raising and
onion culture. will be described. The
right of country children generally
to a good schooling and to plenty of
wholesome play and recreation will
be emphasized. The conspicuous
feature of rural child labor, says the
committee. is its interference with
school attendance. The average
school term in the United States is
40 days. while the city term is $50
days. OF every hundred children en-
rolled in city schools. the daily at
tendance is so, while of every hun
dred enrolled in rural schools only

"BUGOL0GISTS" DISCOVER
new ONE IN FLORIDA

MIAMI, Fla. June S.-"Bugolo-
gists'' here have discovered a new
bug, n not uncommon in the trop-
les. but according to G. F. Moznette'
entomologist in charge of the Fed
eral experiment station here. one
never before seen in the United
States. 1t is the Xylostodoris Luteo-
lus and the visitor has ~journeyed all
the way from Cuba to sample the
quality of the tender shoots of the
Roval Palms here.
Because it is a Sucking" insect
and feeds upon the leaflets of the
trees Mr.. Moznette considers the bug
an undesirable citizen and war al
ready has been declared. The de-
tenders are attempting to repel the
invader with a spray composed of
one part of nicotine sulnhate and l.
200 parts of water. The insect is
yellow and an adult specimen is
about one-half inch in length.
"This is the first record of a KY
lostodoris Luteolus in this country"
said Mr.. Moznette. 1.-THE insect was
recently described in Cuba by Bar
her, with the host plant given as
Oreodoxa. It's identity was deter
mined by Hubert Osborne. of the
Ohio State University. Until it was
found here last year none was aware
of its existence in this country. 1t
makes the new. small shoots of the
Royal Palm trees dry up and look
unsightly."
