a fellow Baptist and express for me
the hope that we shall have through

needed in the world today than the
practical application OF the spirit OF

COLLEGE PARK, Spread
through Maryland and Virginia at an
alarming rate this summer is the one
serious fruit-destroying insect for
which the United States department
of agriculture has found no antidote
the Japanese peach moth.
II has followed the path OF the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad from Wash
ngton, where it first was discovered
eight years ago, until today there is
hardly an orchard or back yard fruit
tree between the two cities which is
not infested with the pest.
Government Helpless.
Until the present summer some
progress was made in fighting the
moth hordes. But now the United
States department OF agriculture adj
mits it is practically helpless, with
more and more serious reports COM
ing in every week.
The history of the Japanese fruit
moth is a typical story of beauty and
the beast Probably the most famous
towering trees in the world are those
in the line of Japanese cherries along
the Potomac river in Washington,
originally presented to Theodore
Roosevelt by the late Mikado. But
out of this pink ribbon of blossoms
the next spring, scientists here be-
lieve, the fruit moth came.
For five or six years it multiplied
in the gardens of Washington unde-
tected. Then for a few years more.
while it multiplied rapidly, its dam
age was almost negligible.

CHANGE COLOR OF
FOWLS WITH FOOD
MAKES CAY
ENNE PEPPER HUED PAR
RIOTS TURN LIGHT RED.

BERLIN.-Aesthetic poultry rails
ers in the future may give prize birds
any color they choose by varying their
diet. according to DR.. Ehrenreich, an
investigator who has been studying
the coloring of the feathers of living
birds. Hereafter white Wyandottes

or chrome yellow fowls, according to
the -whim of owners, the doctor as
serts. 1t will be possible to fool
watchfu1 hawks by giving feathered
Aocks the color of their surroundings
and camoufaging them after methods
adopted by the armies in the world
war.
DIR. Ehrenrcich says he has discov-
cred that red and green parrots turn
yellow if given certain food. len days
of this EXPERIMENTATION have shown a
change from a cayenne pepper TINT
into a vellowish red, while many 9th
err tests have demonstrated that a
birds p1umage depends largely on
dvestuhs contained in food.
Feathers of old hens cannot be ma
terially doctored in color, but dye
stuffs put into their food affect the
hue of the egg yolks to noticeable
degree. 1T,
Experiments made with caterpillars
have shown that those fed on walnut
foliage become dark butterflies
indians have long understood the
art of changing the color of living
birds. but it has not been studied ex-
tensively by modern scientists until
recently.

KING SAYS ATLANTA
is SOUTHERN RENO
ELEVENTH DISTRICT SENA-
TOR SAYS DIVORCES FIND
HAVEN IN CAPITAL CITY.

Senator f. R. King, of Fort Gaines
and the representative of this district,
described Atlanta as "the Reno of the
SOUTH" while speaking in the senate
in support of his bill to prevent the
granting Of divorces on grounds OF
cruel treatment or habitual intoxica-
ton. The bill was lost by a vote OF
1o to II.
The city of Atlanta" said Senator
King, is known everywhere as the
haven of men and women who want
their marital ties severed. They come
here from everywhere and find it an
easy matter to get a divorce in the
Atlanta courts. This kind of business
strikes at the sanctity of the homie
and the welfare of our children, and
the Georgia legislature should put a
stop to it.
The senator argued that the divorce
laws are badly abused in Georgia be-
cause there are so many grounds on
which divorces may be obtained. He
favored the South Carolina plan, which
only allows divorces on what he called
the Biblical ground of desertion.
Stresses Bills Importance.
Here in Georgia. the senator con-
tinued our courts hold that not only
physical pain, but mental pain is a
ground for total divorce. That is all
wrong. If a man takes drink of liq-
uor-and there are very few total alb
stainers-his wife, if she chooses, can
go into court and get a divorce by
charging him with habitual intoxica-
ton. Desertion is the only ground we
should recognize
Laughter among the senators hear
ing Senator Kings speech caused
him to conclude with the following
statement:
This bill should not be considered
in a spirit OF levity. 1t is far too inn
portant The trouble with the prohi-
bition law today is that it has been
laughed at and made a joke. There
appears to be opposition to my bill,
but | give you warning that sooner
or later the situation in Georgia will
become so intolerable that all of YOU
will agree with me-"
The senate has passed bill pro-
hibiting the issuance of a marriage
license in Georgia until the names OF
both contracting parties have been
posted on the door of the court house
in their county for FIVE days.

SPEAK AZ LANGUAGES
IN INDIANA TOWN
GARY, BUILT ON SAND DUNES,
IS BIG MELTING POT. NOT
ED FOR STEEL MILLS.

Where stood dreary, barren sand
dunes il 1905 now stands the city of
Gary, Ind, with more than $4,000 in
habitants.
Gary today is noted for steel and
for its schools. The Gary system"
of education is known from one end
OF the country to the other.
Hauled in Loan.
States Steel Corporation looked over
the sand dunes in 1905 and decided a
city should be built there it was not
the sand but the proximity to Lake
Michigan and to Chicago, affording
excellent shipping advantages. that
persuaded their choice of location.
The sand afforded nourishment for
only few scrubby weeds. Black loan
was hauled in by the thousands of
tons to cover the barrenness of the
site and give sustenance to trees and
vegetation.
Today Gary has AZ different Ian
guages. No other city in the world
has so many nationalities so striking
1y evident as in Gary. New York city
might have as many languages, as
many different nationalities, but they
are swallowed up or isolated in the
millions of its population. In Gary
every foreigner is able to impress
himself as a distinct individual.
The Melting Pot.
Writ, the superintendent, is taking
the children of all these foreigners
and making Americans out of them
by his work-study-play method. Such
is his influence in the city that he has
attracted hundreds of elders to his
schools, learning the language and
fundamentals of American citizenship
after hours.
New York city has been called the
great melting pot of America Gary,
however, is smaller version of the
melting pot, its thousands of children,
born of ~ different nationaities, be-
coming American citizens through
the work-study-play system of Writ,

Two or three specimens from the
Orient are belie&ed to be the ances-
tors of all those which now food the
territory. One of the hardest battles
has been fought to prevent the insect

been entirely successful.

The attack on the twigs starts in
the spring when they are from six to
eight inches long and continues until
the active growth of the tree ceases
in the fall. The larvae prefer tender,
actively growing shoots. The catapil-

discuss methods of combating the

TRresRo Z : e ARCTIC;
JUSTICE New. ES
ESKIMO SITS IN CELL WAIT
ING FOR THE WHITE JUDGE
WHO WILL TRY HIM.

Travelling $500 miles into the bleak
Canadian Arctic, a white Judge is on
his way to try Alikoomiak, an Eski-
mo, for murder. On Herschel Island
the farthermost outpost of the Cana
dian mounted police, the trial is to
be held.
Thou shalt not kill" is a COM
mand that is little needed in the fro
zen North. Woman is mere chattel.
The story has to do with a woman,
a beautiful Eskimo woman, one of the
few in that far country.
One day Otto Binder, trader, laid
eyes on this woman and desired her
Offering her husband, Ikialgagina,
some skins in exchange, he procured
her and together they journeyed still
farther north.
Ikialgagina held a council with his
father and cousins. They must get an
other woman.
Vowed Vengeance.
One night they went out armed and
killed Aniagviak. By all the laws of
the Arctic, the wife of Aniagviak be-
came the wife of Ikialgagina and his
family.
Pugnana, a friend of Aniagviak, the
dead Eskimo, swore vengeance. In
turn he killed Ikialgagina and the
latter's father and cousins.
With food and ammunition Pugna
ma fed. Corporal Doak of the mount
ed police, sought him day after day,
traversing the dreary wastes in pur-
suit of his quarry. Finally the Eskimo
returned to Herschel Island and con-
fessed his failure.
Alikoomiak, friend of Ikialgagina,
whom Pugnana had slain, had also
been engaged in the hunt. Alikooniak
had vowed that he would kill Pugna-
ma the moment the two met
Waiting in Cell
In course of time word reached
Herschel Island that Pugnana was
living with tribe not far distant.
Corporal Doak set out to bring him
in. But Alikoomiak had also gotten
word and had gone on ahead. When
Corporal Doak reached the abode OF
Pugnana he found the body of the
latter on the floor. Alikoomiak had
killed HIM.
Corporal Doak now began the hunt
for A1ikoomiak. He located him sew
eral days later and was bringing him
to the post when, relaxing his watch
fulness for a moment. he found him
self tussling with his captive, who
got hold of his gun. A shot rang out
across the white reaches and the body
of Corporal Doak stretched, on the
snow.
A1ikoomiak made his escape, but
was caught several days later and is
now waiting in the prison cell on
Hersche1 Island for the coming of
the white Judge to deal out to him
the justice of the white man.

U. S. PLANS PRESSURE
ON DEBTOR NATIONS
IS COUNTRIES ASKED TO SAY
HOW THEY INTEND TO PAY
IGNORE QUESTION.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-The Unit
ed States next winter will begin to
apply pressure on the tardy foreign
governments which have failed to re-
spond 20 its invitation to send repre-
their war time debts to this govern
ment, It was learned today.
Ambassadors and ministers OF the
United States in those countries will
probably be instructed to inform their
foreign Offices that this country de
sires its invitation to be needed with
out delay.
Eight Likely to Get Hint"
Sixteen months have elapsed since
the invitation was originally Dispatch
ed to the 20 debtor nations OF the
United States. To date only five have
responded. These are Great Britain,
Finland, Rumania, France and Gee
cho- Slovakia The first two have fund
ed their debts.
OF the remaining IS eight are liza
bic to receive the hint that more
speed is desired. These are Armenia,
Belgium. Estronia, Greece, Hungary,
Latvia, Lithuania and Poland. France
and Rumania, who have permitted
considerable time to elapse since con-
ferring with the debt commission, may
also get reminders.
Special considerations entering into
the cases of the other seven countries
will probably preclude them from get
ting notes. Austria's $27,000000 debt
has been RENTED for 20 years. during
which no interest or principal pay
ment will be made.
Italy and Jugo-SIavia have signihed

the Mexican Conservatory, and my
self, as a representative of Univer sal
Service, to attend them while they are
in Mexico.
An elaborate program will be pre-
pared, the eclipse being visible in
Santa Catalina Island, California, and
at four different points in Mexico,
Lower California, Sonora, San Luis
Obispo and Durango, at which points
will gather scientists from Tucson and
Flagstaff, Ariz., and Others from the
east and Canada.
Senior Gallo has invited all to meet
in Mexico City Immediately after the
phenomenon to discuss the different
phases of the eclipse
At San Luis Obispo the eclipse will
be of three minutes duration, and
great enthusiasm exists here over the
making of the trip to view it.
