You think 1 exaggerate a bit, ]

But I'm trying to tell you how God
will bless
If we bow before Him with oul
face to the ground
And it's the only way that He car

You may say prayer and yet no
pray
Vain words may drive the spiri
away
For no one can pray I'm sure as h,

Unless by the Holy Ghost he i

That's privileged to bow meath Hi

But bow down before Him on bend

Fight To Control
Army Worm In Kent
Continued from nrst pageO

The County Agent reports that
the pest does not seem to be spread
ing from the original areas of in
festation but urges all farmers. to
keep a sharp watch on their wheat
and corn fields. Should the worms
be found entering a new field plow
a deep furrow about the field, dig
post holes every fifty feet in the
furrOw, and apply poison bait.
The one or two farmers who ap-
piled the poison bait by plane are
obtaining a fair degree of kill but
with worms present in large num-
bers, some have escaped to do dam
age in unprotected fields.
Reports are coming in that an
outbreak is developing in New Cas-
tle County in the vicinity of Nc
Donough and MiddletOwn.

31Orphuns Work Extra to Earn
Money to Buy Christmas Gifts

The children of st. Johns Or
,.phanage are proving this Christmas
that generosity is not exclusively a
quality of the fortunate.
These 81 children are themselves
dependent on the generosity of the
citizens of Washington, notably OF
the parishioners of St. Johns Epis-
copal Church, who have supported
the orphanage at 1922 F street fol
the last IS years.
Few of the children are actually
orphans. AS Miss Ruth Hoffman
director of st. Johns points out
there are very few real orphans
in institutions in the United States
today. Most of the children at St
Johns are there because their fam
lilies for one reason or another are
unable to support them at home
Ranging in age from to II, they
are placed there by the Board o1
Public Welfare as we'll as by in
dividuals.

Mexico Increases Tariff
On Shipments From U. 5.
By the Associated Press

Mexico, in a new effort to cope
with dollar shortage, has ordered
a tariff revision on imports largely
raising rates on shipments from
the United States to 1912 levels,
the State Department said yester-
day.
The United States agreed to the
action, effective December 20, pend
ing negotiations to rivise the 1912
reciprocal trade agreement to "af-
ford a more reasonable measure
of protection for Mexican indus
tries"
officials say the new tariff order
will change duties from specific
rates to duties based on value,
giving Mexico greater revenue be-
cause of price increases in the last
| five years.
