Jesse Lee News
By Tommy billiard

The biggest news on "the hill' this week is the same as any home with children this week. Spring Vacation! With three days off from school, there will be time for skiing parties, nov ies and various other forms of recreation. One added treat came when the rising bell sounded an hour later Wednes- day morning!
 The igloo and igloo founda- tions visible in the door-yard are not the beginnings of new dor mitories, but the climax of contest between the "B" boys and girls to see who could con struct the best "ice" house. The boys were selected as winners by MT. Lee, but the girls were commended for their diligent eff forts, which resulted in many beginnings, cold noses, disgusted grunts and discarded piles of snow. The prize is choice for each boy of either one dollar in cash, or fifty cents and a trip to Moose Pass in the new station wagon.
 Just to prove their faith in their handy-work and in their own stamina, three of the boys slept out in the "prize-winner" Tuesday night, and even cooked breakfast in their new quarters. AS we'll as being a good time, this outing served some of the Scouts as the test of overnight camping for their badges.
 Rev. Boe from the Seward Lutheran Church spoke in the espers service Wednesday, March 3. He presented the sermon in a nutshell" (John 3:16), and illustrated his points with symbolic ribbon rolled up in a real nut shell. He and Mrs. Boe were supper guests before the Chapel program.

The Mixing Bowls All Club has been pretty busy for the last month. Mrs. Davies visited one of our meetings while she was here. She gave talk and then answered any questions we asked.
 At one meeting, when the weather was nice, we went ice skating by the radio station. Then we had cocoa and cookies for refreshments.
 When the harpist, Nicanor Zabaleta, was here, we took care of the reception following the concert. At our meetings this month, we have baked ginger bread, date bread and nut bread, and some of the girls have done extra baking at home.

"A PRACTICAL THOUGHT

One day saw a foolish bird cavorting with cat. The cat was set upon his prey, the bird should have known that.
 l watched with great anxiety and said, Why don't you fly? Do use those wings God gave you to wing up in the sky" Then as l thought upon the scene that l had witnessed there It caAe to me convincingly had thought to share That is the way we human folk so often fall in sin Cavorting with the enemy when we should flee from him. The wings of faith God gave us are meant to use you see To seek the shelter of His love and its security.
 Arise my friend when tempted to compromise with sin; Remember then Gods gift of faith and you will surely win For there is not a force on earth that can really make you sin When you are fortified by faith and fly direct to Him. Let's not be tricked or trifled with, but stand secure and strong;
 "The Grown of Life" is promised to those resisting wrong.

that containers in which such
flammable liquids are purchased
are usually marked "Flammable"
or Keep away from fire" Often
times, however, their words are so
small that they are overlooked by
the user or in some cases they may
fail to understand the meaning OF
these words.
Whenever a container of flam-
mable liquid is opened, vapors
tend to mix with the air and may
form an explosive mixture that
will burn or explode when they
come in contact with a flame or
spark. This may be a pilot light

Prepare To Fight
SpittIebugs Here
IT'S TINE TO GET READY
FOR SPITTLEBUGS

The "Areat - The 1854 hay
crop which was dealt a hard wal.
Top by the drouth in 1858 may
face another blow from insects
unless farmers are alert to pre-
vent it.
The Guilty Insect - A tiny in
sect known as the meadow spittle-
bug has caused widespread dam
age to red clover and alfalfa hay
crops during the last ten years.
In fields infested with spittlebugs,
hay yields have been reduced
from 25G6 to $50 where the field
was mtreated. Fortunately, this
loss can be prevented by chemical
treatment if applied at the right
time.
How DO We Know Well Have
En- This Spring? - The adult
spittlebug which lay the eggs
from which the Sap-sucking
nymphs hatch out were numerous
and widespread last fall when en-
tOmologiSt made spot checks of
alfalfa and clover fields. These
adults lay their eggs on stubble
or trash in the fields and the
adult population last fall was such
that there is a plentiful supply
of eggs for the spring brood.
What To Look For - These
eggs usually hatch in Franklin
County during the latter part of
April or early May. Look for the
yellow colored nymphs in a drop
of spittle on or between the ex-
panding leaves of the young clo-
YER or alfalfa plant. AS the
nymphs grow they suck sap from
the young plant and the mass of
spittIe grows and becomes more
noticeable One or two of these
small spittle masses per plant
would indicate need for quick
treatment if the hay crop is not
to be reduced. Don't wait till you

can see them from the edge of
the field - they've already done
much damage by that time.
What To Do For Them -
Spraying the field with Benzene
HeXachloride when the first
nynphs are found will stop the
invaders. One quart 1879 or 1870
gamma isomer of Benzene Hexa-
chloride, liquid form, per acre in
whatever amount of spray the
machine applies per acre has been
the most satisfactory treatment.
Treated early the plants will be
short enough not to be damaged
by a sprayer crossing the field
and the insects are killed before
they have a chance to do much
damage. Nymphs Matching out lat
er will find the BenZene HeXa-
chloride awaiting them on the foli-
age and will be killed. Weed
sprayers or airplane sprayers may
be used.
Caution - Fields sprayed with
BenZene HeXachloride should not
be pastured or harvested for any
purpose within three weeks after
treatment.
With so much 1854 hay acre
age badly damaged by dry weat-
her, it will pay to protect the
plants still present. Get down and
look in clover and alfalfa for
those little yellow sap suckers
each day now for safety's sake.

New ChrysIer Exec.
SAYS Outlook Healthy

A representative group of 500
Chrysler dealers from all parts of
the U. S. believe that business
activity is increasing and will con-
tinue to increase for the remain
der of the year, reports E. c.
Quinn, president, Chrysler Divi-
sion, Chrysler Corporation.
Their estimate is backed by
the fact that shipment of new
ChrysIers to fill dealers orders
increased 1875 per cent for the
period March Is through April Is
over the previous 30 days" said
Quinn, who was elected to the
ChrysIer Corporation board of
directors on April 20.
Another factor greatly in
fluencing our new car business is
the renewed sales activity in used
cars which has resulted since tie
first of the year in a 20 per cent
reduction in stocks in the hands
of Chrysler dealers. These figures
bear out the feeling by Chrysler
dealers that the expected upturn
in the automobile business has be-
gun throughout the country"
Quinn said he and the ChrySler
sales staff had talked with the
dealers about business conditions
in their selling areas when the
dealers visited Detroit last week
for a spring meeting.
From these discussions, he said,
had come six major points of
agreement by the dealer group on
why business will become. steadily
better.
First, Chrysler dealers report
that in contrast to the situation
of many competitive dealers they
are not overloaded" Quinn said.
"In addition almost all report
that payrolls in their areas are up
over last year"

that this month is Child Safety
Month" and that motor vehicles
kill more children every year
than any disease.
Mrs. Priest, who is one Of the
judges of the 1854 Carol Lane
Awards for Traffic Safety quoted
National Safety Council figures
that $500 pedestrians were kill
ed last year.
"Of that total, almost a fourth
We're children under ID" she said.
Spring means that the motor
ist must be doubly alert Mrs.
Priest pointed out. Not only does
spring bring more cars to the
streets and highways, but it is al
so a period of greater outdoor play
and activity by children. There
fore, motorists should drive with
extreme caution near schools,
Fairgrounds, residential areas and
other places where children may
congregate.
