PlOw Under Corn Stalks
Now To Control
Corn BOrer

Plow under corn stalks now to
help control the Corn Borer and
thus reduce the loss from this de-
structive insect, is the advice of
William H. Henderson, county ag-
ricultural agent. Results i'm 1948
show that where a high percen-
tage of the old corn fields were
plOwed prior to May 10th. the corn
bOrer infestatiOn was reduced ma
terially.
Loss from this insect is estima-
ted at about $1SO,OOO annually in
Delaware.
This years corn crop can be pro-
tected from the borer by the use
of DDT at the rate of 2 pounds of
so per cent wettable powder to Is
gallons of water. per acre. This
treatment should be started not
later than the late whOrl stage of
the corn plants and continued for
2 or applications at 5 to Z day
intervals.

how can we call FirePower the only new type

one you ought to know before you invest a car.
The fact is that engine Improvements" happen
every year but basically new motor car

the most basic new development since Chrys-

up as ne goes along as he grows a
little older.
Some Of the first songs the
little child enjoys besides those
just mentioned are Mother
Goose songs, nursery songs, lula
bies and simple folk songs The
sounds OF the words, especially in
Mother Goose songs, have a def
mite appeal and are very rhythmi
cal.
Playing echo" is both enjoy
able and instructive. A child goes
behind screen or out of the
room and call "whoo-whoo' or
"Bow-wow" and you answer back
as an echo on the same pitch or
tone of voice. Musical games are
valuable in helping a child de-
velop skill in the use of his voice
through his sense of hearing
Apart from the real music in
struments that children can de
velop their musical abilities such
as the piano. bells. drums, etc.
there are many things in the
home which a child can adapt to
his own musical use. One is a
wide-tooth comb with a piece of
tissue paper over it; he moves
this wrapped comb lightly across
his lips and blows a tune through
it. This is only one Of the possibi-
lities for sound experiences with
simple materials which any home
can provide. Drums, tuned glasses,
bowls and other instruments can
be made for the child at home
Every child should have a must
cal library. Following are a few
song collections for children:
Music in the Home by Aitken,
which is composed Of singing
talking, songs. games for rhythm
and melody and quiet music; "A
other Singing Time" by John Day
which is more songs about child
rem and their interests. Another is
an illustrated collection Of Fifty
Favorite Songs" by Whitman. A.
mong the many monograph re-
cords made for children can be
found "Children's Marches by
Goldman on a Victor recording;
"Nutcracker Suite, March by
Tschaikowsky orche stra, SOL
diers March" by Schumann; jun
bo's Lullaby, Debussy on a Decca
recording, and the Cat and
Mouse" by COPELAND. OF course this
is only a few of the hundreds of
suitable recordings for children.
Most ehildrens recordings can be
purchased for very small sum and
most can be played on the regular
record player or a record player,
can be purchase for the child
separately.

us what happened; but why does II

Take, for example. the well known
story Of the Exodus. when the Chill
dren Of Israel got out OF Egypt
where they had been slaves for
about as long as the Negroes were
slaves In America before 1868. All
historians agree Cd that Israelites
were In Egypt; and CD that they
got out.
But the history books do not read
like the Bible. In the Cambridge
Ancient History" or in any history
Of the ancient Middle East. you can
read the account CT the Exodus
with the miracles left out.
Furthermore. the historians
never bring God Into their tale.
An they can tell us Is what you
could have caught with . NOV

caught that way. The story Of
the Exodus, In the Bible, has
another slant. The Hebrew folk
