Happenings Here just 10 Years
Ago Today A. Taken From
The Files OF The Citizen

The city council is unanimously
in favor Of the aquarium for
Key Wet. President Paul Al
bury and the six others say that
not only is it a grand idea but
that it would be Of great benefit
to the city in more ways than one
liz the aquarium could be built
and in operation before the COM
pletion Of the Overseas Highway.
Each of the councilnlen was ask
ed to express himself as to the
display OF fish and they concur
red in the thought that nothing
Of greater value as an advertis-
ing factor could be devised than
an aquarium maintained by the
city and with ample space to
show to the world the varieties
OF fish which are to be found in
these waters.

be concluded on this Key next
week.
All Key West needs il to COM

thousands and then tell the world

atate, who believes that Key West
is destined to become one OF the
most popular winter resorts in
the country. Mr.. Edwards is the
man who refused to die. This
happened several year ago when
several eminent specialists told
him he was dying. He did not
die but got up out of bed, went
about his business ard still looks
after the interests of his stores
although he is a hopeless cripple.

CARING FOR RUSTIC WORK
BY Roger B. Whitrnon

MOT long ago I received a letter
~ explaining the purchase Of a
playhouse built Of rustic work; Of
bark covered saplings. Within a
week after it was put up, insects
were found flying around inside,
and were soon so thick that the chill
dren refused to play in it. Little
piles of sawdust were found all over
it inside and out. i was asked how
the insects could be destroyed.
There could be but one answer: that
wood, so thoroughly infested with
boring insects. could not be re-
claimed.
Many kinds Of insects thrive in
wood: There are borers Of many
classes that develop from eggs to
the adult beetle inside Of wood.
and that as larvae are very destruc-
tive. Other kinds Of insects make
borings just under the bark. Be-
cause Of these insects, rustic work
may not be practical, for there is
no sure way to protect it against
insect attack. One signal is the
loosening of bark. When this is no.
ticed, and borings are found under
meath the bark, all the bark should

THIS HURTS

THEY hurt US most a way they
L never dream. -. !.
Not with their words, however harsh
they seem, !.
But with their lives. the follies they
pursue,
That hurt the heart more than their
words could do. =,
Some strange rebellion in the girl
and boy
Now makes our special fear their
special JOY.
They hurt us most way they never
guess.
Not with their words, but with i'm
modest dress,
Immoral pleasures, for these deeds
are done
By someone's daughter or by some
ones son.
But yesterday we stood beside their
cot;
It hurts to feel they have so soon
forgot.
They hurt us most a way they never
know.
Not with their words, however hard
the blow,
But with the loss Of many things
we miss,
The dreams of parents that have
come to this.
OF all we taught them, nothing has
prevailed ..

be stripped off and the bare wood
given a coat or two of spar var
nish.
When there are holes in the wood,
an insect killing liquid can be squirt
ed in with a medicine dropper or
otherwise; kerosene and carbon
tetrachloride are effective. In one
case that know, the framework of
a chair was made of heavy sticks
which evidently contained borers. A
one-inch hole was bored straight
down into each timber from the top
to a depth Of four inches. Carbon
tetrachloride was poured into these
holes, and the openings were closed
with corks. Soaking into the wood,
the liquid worked nearly the length
Of the timbers, killing all worms
and eggs that were within.
Garden furniture is usually taken
into a cellar for the winter. This
is not advisable, for in the warm
atmosphere, any borers that may
be in the wood will continue: their
work. There is far better protec-
ton in leaving garden furniture out
doors through the cold weather.
They should be in a dry place, but
exposed to low temperature.

every one knows that Mistress
Spring has arrived.
Now, Mistress Spring wastes no
time, for she has a great deal to
do, and the very first thing is to
waken all the sleepers whom gentle
Sister South Wind has not already
wakened. Peter Rabbit never could
understand how she does it because
there are so many sleepers-little
people who wear fur, little people
who wear neither fur nor feathers,
but whom we call bugs, and all the
little and big plants. There are so
many, many Of them who sleep all
winter long that it has always
seemed to Peter as if Mistress
Spring must miss some Of them.
But she never does.
SO now that mistress spring really
had arrived Peter was too happy to
sit still. He just had to hurry around
and greet his friends as fast as they
walked. Bobby Coon and Unc' Billy
Possum had crawled out Of their
hollow trees just after Winsome
Bluebird arrived. Now Peter felt
sure his old friend Johnny Chuck
would be crawling out and he hur.

Orchard where Johnny's house is.
Sure enough. there sat Johnny
on his doorstep taking a sun-bath.
He looked very thin, not at all as
he had looked when Peter last saw
aim. He grinned at Peter and

legs and the first thing he asked
was if Peter knew where there was
any tender young clover. But Peter

that that would do, because he was
so hungry that he could eat almost
anything.
While they were talking a merry
little voice shouted from the stone

and he looked as pert and smart
and saucy as ever. He wasn't thin
like Johnny Chuck. You see he had
filed his storehouse, which opens
right out of his bedroom, with
plenty Of good things in the fall.
and he had walked up in the winter
often enough to eat what he needed
