NOW Is the time 70 attack the
peach tree borer, often a serious
pest damaging peach. prune, april
cot, plum, and occasionally cherry
trees, Frank Webster, Benton
County Extension agent, reminds.
An accumulation of reddish,
gummy sawdust around the base
of the Tree is the usual tell-tale
evidence that the borer is at work.
The sawdust is made as the borer
tunnels beneath the surface and
feeds on the inner layer of the
bark. The injury is usually to the
crown and roots of the tree.
The peach tree borer should not
be confused with the peach twig
borer or the shot-hole borer. Web
ster said. The twig borer infests
the tender terminal shoots and the
ripening fruit. The shot-hole Dor
er makes small round holes SINH
lar to shot-holes in the trunk and
branches of infested trees.
David H. Brannon, extension
entomologist of Washington State
College. says the adult of the
peach twig borer is a clear-winged
moth which appears during June,
July and August The female
moth lays its eggs on the tree
trunks. BY now most of the eggs
have been laid and have Matched.
Brannon said there are several
insecticides available for control
of peach tree borers Paradichloro-
benzene has been Used a number
of years with good results when
properly applied. Ethylene dich-

Was Job Real?

DON'T ask: Was Job real char

Hamlet and Macbeth? It is very
likely there was once upon time
some man by that name who suf-
fered in that way. and that he had
friends, not too sympathetic, who
talked it over with him.
AS Hamlet and Macbeth were his

peare used with high art to express
profound ideas, so the author Of
Job may well have used the trials
of some man he knew, or knew OF.
to express truths about problem
as profound and widespread as the

Suffering Is Test

solution; that is, it does not alto

Suffering is test: A test Of

The Characters

Inc CndraCCcfS
THE characters at first are three:
L God, Satan and a man named
Job. Job is a good man, in fact God
calls him perfect. He is also pros
porous, and thereby hangs the tale.
For one fateful day God and Satan
have a conversation about this man.
The Lord inquiries if Satan has seen
him, and how good he is. Oh yes,
Satan says airily, he has seen him,
but he does not think highly of his
goodness. He is too well paid
for it.. He has a large and happy
family, and has immense wealth;
why shouldn't he be good? Take
away his prosperity and he will
curse you to your face, Satan
SneerS.
So God lets Satan work his
malice on the man. In ter
rible series of disasters, one
ru shing on anOther's heels.
everything Job has owned van
ishes. His children are killed
by storm and fire, and Job is
left childless, penniless man.
But Job will not complains; his
faith in God still does not waver.
So when next Satan reports to
God, the Almighty asks again: Did
you see my servant Job? He holds
fast to his integrity. All, yes, sneers
the unbelieving fiend. Yes, but he
still has his health. He can have
another family, another fortune.
Make life itself so miserable that
he will long to die, and then you
will see his goodness vanish, then
he surely will curse you to your
face.
So God let Satan do his worst
Do all you can to him, God says.
only leave him alive. And then Job
is made horribly and painfully i'll.
he cannot sleep for the torture OF
boils covering him from head to
foot. Three of his friends come to
visit him. For seven days they sit
in silence, and then begins great
debate, with Job on one side and
his friends on the other: Why must
such things be? Why must good
people suffer?

Negroes, Indians, Spanish-Amer-

OUTSTANDING factor in the
case is that the IS were cleared
of disorder1y conduct charges
filed against them, when Judge
Joseph J. Drucker, sitting in
Boys Court, dismissed charges.
The IS point out that there was
no reasonable cause for the ar
rest, there was no warrant, and
that their constitutional rights OF

to the Progressive Party con-

delegates when she 1A.d ees,-
nestly:
eff we can only carry this back
to Chicago -"
BY "this" she meant the I'M
precedented, exuberant enthusi-
asm, loyalty, unity, and energy
that played such a big part in
making the convention phe-
nomenal success.
BUT. like all the others, she
meant more than that. She also
meant hope-the optimism that
found its first expression at Shibe
Park, when Glen Taylor cried
out:
Were going to win in Novem-
ber!"
Win win The word
worked wonders The crowd
roared its agreement
For the first time, at the con-
vention the delegates realized
that vote for Wallace and Tay-
lor could be more than a protest
vote-that it could vote into
office the first Progressive Presi-
dent in the country's history.
And it was feeling based, not
only on idealistic fervor, but on
the cold facts of political life.
They counted h DIS. They
probed particularly the possibili-
ties in the vote of labor and of
the Negro people. And what they
found amazed them.
NO ONE would claim that the
odds were with Wallace, but all
agreed for the first time that he
had a good fighting chance-and
these delegates were fighters.
Many labor and Negro leaders
felt that the potential Wallace
vote hadn't even been plumbed
yet. Some felt that they hadn't
done enough, that there was
much more that could be done.
And one thing was sure: after
that convention, everything pos
sible would be done.
A survey of l.l47 delegates
helped to strengthen that opti-
mism. Nearly haH-45% TO be

WHILE no poll was taken of
the number of Negro delegates,
the total was obviously very high.
And these delegates had prac-
teal political experience. The
survey showed 74% had actively
engaged in previous political
campaigns.
The youth of the delegates
also was point in their favor.
Newspapermen called it "the
singingest convention YET"
