spray should be used then with
good solution, and it will bring about
excellent results. These bagworms
are very injurious to the trees
For solution, Mr. simpkins advised
that arsenate OF lead be ueed a
paste should be formd first, by mix

with 80 gallons ef water for use in

GET READY.

Atlantic City, y. j., June 13-Al
training activities in Jack Dempsey's
camp were dropped today. The world
champion will rest completely until
Wednesday. Manager Kearns offered
no explanation, but camp followers
thought Dempsey had reached the
peak Of his training and could set
himself on edge within 10 days If
necessary. 1t also was generally ac-
cepted that the tenderness OF the
wound over his left eye is causing con-
siderable alarm.
Tne titIe-holder has not done any
boxing since week ago yesterday
when the cut was re-opened by Larry
Williams. A stitch taken in the wound
was removed Friday.
Dempsey worked for 35 minutes
yesterday only because ne did not want
to disappoint the Sunday crowd which
turned out. Lew Tender, the Phila-
delphia lightweight, saw Dempsey and
was impressed with the champions
condition.
If Carpenter lasts beyond the third
round, I'll be the most surprised man
in the arena" said Tender.
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, former
boxer, who visited the camp yester-
day. expressed an opinion that Demp-
sey was in no danger OF going stale.
II think the layoff from boxing is
the best thing that could happen TO
Jack, said OBrien. Il believe ne will
enter the ring in wonderful physical

AVIATORS DREAMED ZR-2
WOULD BE WRECKED

HULL, Eng, Sept. 24-Those
who believe in dreams will find
subject for reflection in several
remarkable visions forecasting the
destruction of the airship, Hn-2,
which came to Two American Off
GERS attached TO the Mowden air
fore and to Chief Rigger Shields
wife who is in America.
Three times in the six week $
preceding the HR-2's fatal trial
trip, Lieutenant William r. Tay-
lor Of the medical corps dreamed
that the airship was wrecked and
one of the dreams wildly pictured
almost the exact circumstances at
tending the actual disaster. Tav-
Tor, by the way, was in Hull on
the day Of the catastrophe and
saw the ZR-2 meet her fate. In
his dream, he saw her eplit in two
and hurtle down lust as a few
days later it actually happened
Lieutenant J. Il. Lawrence also
dreamed that the IR-2 was wreck
ed. Shields was one Of those sell
ccted 10 take the trial trio on the
biz airship but was taken i'll after
boarding her, owing to an earlier
accident. and Norman 0. Walker
took his place; the latter being the
only American survivor after. the
wl'ack.
Mrs. Shields wrote 10 her hus-
hand from the United States
shortly before the airship's trials
saving that she dreamed that the
ZR-2 was wrecked, and imploring
her husband not to make the trip.

VIII Present Their
Work and Plans

The frequent appeals of late for
the children of distant lands have
caused some to wonder if perhaps
it would rot be we'll to give def
mite attention to the problem at

mont children? What are the pros
poets of the coming generation?
What kind of citizens and parents
are the influences of today mould

flawed because of neglect, of ply
steal need and of moral infection?
In response to such feeling and
the questions thus raised the pub
licity and finance committees OF
the Vermont Children's Aid Socie-
ty are working out plans for a Ver-
mont Children's Week. 1t is hoped
that arrangements can be COM
pleted in time to observe such q
week October % to 80. A vital
part of the plan depends upon Sc
curing the support and coopera-
ton of women's clubs, patriotic
societies, etc. The plan is to secure
as wide publicity as possible fol-
the problems and needs of child
helping in Vermont, and for the
aims and policies of child-helping
agencies. Through churches,
schools, clubs and societies, by lee
lures, talks, and discussion, as well
as by distribution Of suitable liter
AZURE, effort will be made to arouse
the general public to a fuller real

the extent of the problem of child

IN connection with this general

for finding and supervising homes

that the response will enable an
