Spray Now To Control
BagwOrm On Evergreens

SPRAY NOW TO CONTROL 49, -.
Spray now with one ounce of
Toxaphene in one gallon of water
to control bagworm on evergreens,
is the recommendation of County
Agent William III. Henderson. Mr..
Henderson suggests that home
owners with evergreen trees in
their yard should not wait until
the worms are half grown before
spraying the trees. BY waiting the
worms do a great deal of damage
to the trees and are much more
difficult to kill.
A second spraying with the same
material may be necessary in from
two to three weeks after the first
application. This is especially true
IL there is much rain after the
first spraying.
For further information on in
sect control on shrubbery or gar
dens call or write the Extension
Office In Georgetown.

Millsboro's Fifth Grade classes.
Upon arrival. the candy factory
was visited. Here they watched the
processing of various products.
Their guide, young lady teach
er who is employed by the com
pany, explained how the chocolate
is mixed to a velvety smoothness
and then shaped into bars, buds.
drops, and kisses. The machine
wrapping and packaging of the diff
ferent items was viewed also.
After leaving the candy factory.
the motorcade wended its way to
high hill overlooking the town.
Here they entered Hotel Hershey
where an inspection was made of

beauty and grandeur of this fam
Gus hotel. For, in addition to its
interior elegance, it possesses a
breath taking rose garden.
After descending into Hershey
Park, the children trooped to the
zoo which is divided into two sec
tions. One part is housed in a
building that displays stuffed wild
life in a natural setting, behind
large show windows. While the
other half allows the real animals
to roam in pits or cages. The only
exception to this arrangement is
the manner in which monkeys ca
wort on rocky island.
Then the sightseers motored to
Indian Echo Cave, at Hummels-
town, distance of miles. While
in the cave guide informed US
that 1t required the passing of L.

of -stalagmite. He also mentioned
the names of the various rooms
into which the cave is divided,
such as Mable's Room, Rainbow
Room, Frozen Niagara, Ball Room,
and room which is difficult to
enter is named Fat Mans Misery.
Upon returning to the Hershey

The Beavers Are Back!

Suddenly new faces begin to appear in clusters
uptown, and side streets unfamiliar autos with out
of-town license tags become evident One senses un-
activity the college campus and then the

of a sudden it is midSeptember and the Beavers are
Back!
It's great day for Bluffton when the villages
adopted sons and daughters" begin school
year. This is happy time unknown to the thousands
of small towns not fortunate as to have college
in their midst and to larger cities where the colleges
and universities so overshadowed that the annual
re-opening does not hold the importance.
Bluffton citizens hope that it is great day also
for the $50 some new students who have arrived on
the campus this year, and for those who are returning
for the second, third or fourth time. We hope you
will like town.

SEPTEMBER

When September steps over
the threshold, a change comes
over the land. There is a nip in
the air at dawn. When day is
done and light fades from the
western sky, one can feel the
sharp edge of the breeze pushing
in from the northwest.
September is a month of color
and fragrance. Goldenrod lifts its
spikes beside the roads and the
blue of the asters matches the
blue of the ninth month sky. Joe
Pyeweed holds purple flags and
blue vervain spreads colorful
patches in open fields. Down in
the swale, cattails' heads are
chocolate-brown cylinders; and
in field corners, wine-red candles
of the sumac are bright on scrag'
gly candelabra. AS soon as first
frost draws a cold brush across
the landscape, poison ivy will be-
come bright red quilts on walls
and fences.
There are good smells in the
air in September. On a brisk
morning as the sun pulls into the

COUNTRY FLAVOR

sky, one can smell maturing ap-
pies and the heady pungency of
warming soil. AS coolneSs leaves
the sun-cured grasses on upland
pastures, there is pleasant,
spicy aroma from Earth's most
numerous herb. When a man
walks his acres on a mellow, sun
blessed September afternoon, the
tangy fragrance of frosted grapes
is perfume in the air.
September is the beginning of
autumn. After the solstice one
knows that Time is beginning its
downhill slide to the nadir. But
there are many who will nomi-
nate the ninth month as their fa-
vorite of the twelve. This is the
beginning of a new season; this
is the time of fulfillment. For
man knows that after the time OF
planting and maturing, there
shall be the ear and then the
full corn in the ear. We cannot
regulate time; each must travel
his destined years. But he who
will can take each season as il
comes and from it gain wisdom
for the seasons ahead.

LETTERS S
TO THE EDITOR

LaFollette, Tenn.
Sept, 8, 1858
To the Editor
The Bluffton News
Dear Sir:
We want to take this means to
publicly thank every citizen of
Bluffton for each act of kindness
to us while we were in Bluffton
Community hospital.
We had a very unfortunate
auto accident, but were fortunate
to be in your town. We are
grateful to the churches for their
prayers, visits and gifts. To the
"TopS Club" who adopted Judy
while she was in the hospital.
She enjoyed the gifts so much,
she took part of them to the
LaFollette hospital to enjoy and
sent the rest of them home.
We wish we could thank each
one personally but since we can
not, if you will be so kind as to
print this, we want everyone to
know that we are grateful. We
will always remember the hos
pitality your town extended to
us when we were in such desper-
ate need of friends.
Sincerely yours,
Staley, Maud and Judy Miller.

OUR LAZY SUMMER has end
ed and the busy rush of school
has started again. With all the
new seventh graders (59 to be
exacD stampeding the halls, the
word rush" has a real mean
ing. Because rampling is not COW
cred in our school insurance, the
Student Senate might take up
the idea of installing traffic lights
in the corridors.
THE JUNIORS are grateful to
Mr.. Geiger for teaching two
chemistry classes. Because of
lack of seating, the group had to
be divided into two classes. His
nerves will be ratified twice as
much this year.
Because 63 students are now
taking typing, fourteen new type
writer's were ordered, and of
course everyone wants to use the
new ones. First come, first

LATEST RAGE is the Hula
Hoop. Coach Osborne might pre-
sent each member of the foot
ball team with one for practice
sessions. 1t might look a little
ridiculous on the practice field,
but again it might improve their
swivel hips.
Speaking of football, we are
proud of our teams start, and
here's hoping they keep it up the
rest of the season.
OH YES, and doesn't the band
look snappy in their new uni
forms. 1t just goes to show what

do. The marching lines even
seem straighter.

IT'S AN old story the one summed up in the
Il plaintive statement I'm not married I'm
expecting a. baby" But it's not the same old
story these days.
At one time 1t may have been true that all
girls in homes for unwed mothers were there
because they had no alternative. Not now. In
recent years, more than one girl who has borne
a child at the Florence Crittenton Home, 4759
Reservoir road NV, has had the opportunity to
marry the childs father-and turned it down.
Usually" explains Mrs. Leora L. Conner,
executive director Of the Florence Crttenton Home
eff there's chance for marriage, the girl doesn't
come here. We have cases. however, In which the
prospective father wants to marry the expectant
mother, but the girl, realizing perhaps that
permanent relationship with this particular man
would result in more unhappiness, turns him down.
Another popular old notion that doesn't con-
form with facts the Florence Crittenton staff
finds them today is that the temporary residents
of homes for unwed mothers tend to come from
a single social economic environment, or are on
one intellectual level. ITO the contrary Mrs.
Annette Clay, a case worker at the home, says.
I'VE find that unwed mothers come from every
walk of life-from all sorts of social and financial
backgrounds. They run the gamut from dull to
extremely intelligent-and, in appearance, from
plain to beautiful"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-03-23

Conner says. 1.-THE criterion for acceptance" she
adds, "is the opportunity and ability to help the
girl and her baby without jeopardizing the best
interests of the group already in residence"
Shelter, medical care and seclusion are Just
part of the services offered The stress these days.
according to the executive director is on giving
the girl understanding of herself and enabling
her to use better ways of handling her problems
to the end that she can make better personal
adjustment and a wise decision for the best
interest of her baby.
She emphasizes that the home is not an adop-
ton agency, but rather resource" through which
satisfactory adoption plans be made for babies
released for adoption. I'VE try to give girls
guidance" Mrs. Conner says, ito help them decide
what would be in the childs best interest-and
their own as well But the final decision affecting
the baby's future is up to the mother"
The usual stay at the home begins eight weeks
before delivery and ends about two weeks after.
"This is a difficult period of course" Mrs. Conner
observes, "but it can be maturing experience"
Far from being ruined" as matter OF course,
"a girl may-with help-return to her home and
employment a better woman"
Indeed" Mrs. Conner adds, "the better under
standing of herself she has when she leaves may
help her to make healthy, happy marriage. I've
seen it happen!"
