Elm Bark Beetles Buildup Poses
Grave Threat To Americas Elm

Elm Bark Beetles BuiIdup Poses
Grave Threat To Americas Elm
Elm bark beetles have built up
an enormous population, and this
spells peril to many elm trees
next year.
These bark beetles transmit
Dutch elm disease. That in itself
is extremely dangerous. But so
numerous are these beetles in some
trees that they may kill elms out
right by girdling. saws Don Can't
well, District Manager of the Bart
lett Tree Expert Co.
There are two generations of elm
bark beetles a year. The first one
in Spring is extremely serious be-
cause the insects are contaminated
with spores of the Duth elm disease
fungus. AS the beetles feed on ten
der bark of the twig crotches the
spores enter the water-conducting
vessels. of the tree and cause in
fection.
The beetles then bore under the
bark of trunk and large limbs of
elm trees and a second proof de-
velops. This year, Mr.. Cantwell re-
ports, favorable weather conditions
resulted in an unusually heavy
second generation. The adults ap-
peared in August, feeding on leaves
(Which were still green because of
summer rains) and in twig crot-
ches.
Now they have returned to weak
ened and diseased elms. They have
built numerous brood or egg tun-
nels beneath the bark So numerous
and overlapping are these tbaG in
many instances they girdle tree
This may cause the death OF the
tree by next year. Girdling destroys
the trees vital cambium layer.
Next spring larvae in these tun-
nels will change into winged adults
that will become a threat to other
elms. Dutch elm disease was very
serious this summer. 1t may be even
worse next year, Mr.. CantweIl, be-
lieves, unless tree owners act in
time.
That action is this: Feed elms
this fall to keep them healthy and
restore lost vigor. Prune out and
burn all diseased and dying wood.
Plan now to spray the elm with
DOT early next spring. This spray
will kill the beetles as the spring
generation begins to feed again.

Vaccine For Fowl Cholera
To Be Available Soon

Fowl chlorea, an old enemy Of
poultrymen, is about to meet
tough new vaccine according to the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, says Ray Lloyd, county
agricultural agent.
Mr. Lloyd says U.S.D.A. scien-
fists have developed several vac
cines which look good for fighting
this disease.
Experiments are under way to
find the best method of prepara-
tion and dosage to get the best
results for the longest time.
1t should soon be possible to
vaccinate poultry under field con-
ditions where natural outbreaks of
cholera occur or are danger.
A single dose os one of the new
vaccines gave excellent immunity
for nine months, the agent said.

For example: the protection you planned

THE T0ODLGS
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Ready for a few more
troublesome twins-those pairs
Of easily confused words which
sometimes make the most care
full speaker come a cropper?
How about council" and
counsel? Are you sure you
can always use each correctly?
Remember the difference be-
tween them this way: A council
is always made UP Of a number
Of persons. 1t is usually a group
gathered together for consulta-
ton on matters Of law-as a
city council. privy council, and
so on. A counsel" on the other
hand, may be a single person
usually a lawyer-who gives
advice or conducts a case in
court. In an important action,
Of course. several attorneys to-
gether may make up the
counsel" for the plaintiff or
defendant. Another and earlier
meaning Of counsel" is simply
advice" So one might say -
though you probably wouldn't
for fear of causing misunder-
standing-"the mayors council
deliberated a long time and
then gave him some mighty
wise counsel"
Credible" and "credulous"
are another pair that cause
much confusion. Credible"
means, simply, believable-"to
modern youngsters tales Of adj
ventures in space seem COM
pletely credible" "Credulous,"
however, means gullible - too
ready to believe. Tommy was
so credulous that, If his uncle
told him so, he'd be willing to
believe that the moon is made
Of green cheese"
A pair that even careful
writer's sometimes use wrongly
are --latest" and last" For

gratefully and that you have faced
its trials bravely. You must in
variablv pursue the paths of truth
and of duty which will enable YOU
to cherish a good conscience above
worldly gain. And above all, you
should SO practice the good things
of life that you will learn to value
a health soul above sensual gra-
tifcation.
You young people of this TWEEN
tieth century, you of this pragma-
tic age, you of this practical age,
may want to question whether
this sort of thing-all admittedly
good advices-really pays off. I
should like to borrow from that
phrase and say to you in all sin
ceritv that integrity does pay off.
humility does pay off, hard work
does pay off. A humble man. a
mar of integrity, a God-fearing
man can find real happiness in
life. When pride and self-aggran-
dizement enter a mans heart the
whole world becomes insufficient
for him; because of his inflated
opinion Of himself, he will con-
stantly grumble about his portion
in life.
Take these thoughts seriously>to
heart. Half the world is not
enough for a Khrushchev. A mil
lion a year income is not enough
for the man who earns it. The
most honored is never satisfied
with honors. Honesty, integrity,
humility, and an indomitable de-
dication to do the best you can
do-always-win make you be-
loved of men and acceptable to
God. 1t will give you the comfort,
the strength, the guidance, the
will to go forward, steadily for
ward, in your chosen career.

COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS
of Morris F.. deCsstro. President, West Indies
Bank and Trust Company, Charlotte AmaIie
High School, June 26, 1858

the Virgin Islands, Commissioner
of Education. Principal and Mem
tars of the Faculty of Charlotte
Fmalie HIGH School, Graduates,
Parents and friends
A hush of so1emnity, an expec-'
tant stiffness, a ponderous wave
shock of emotion, should come
ever this gathering here tonight,
row that these graduates, with
joyful feelings yet anxious hearts,
lave laid aside their daily High
School tasks and have come to
receive their diplomas in the
rrideful presence of their parents,
their relatives and their friends.
When the shades of night veil
from our eyes the beauties of the
earth. a world of opportunity
cpens before our minds. Even in
this pragmatic age, perhaps be-
cause of it, it would be wise for
these graduates to pause for a
brief moment to contemplate the
brightness of their home firesides
which, in essence, has been the
backbone of the education they
lave thus far received.
Indeed. my young friends, at
tbs iovful vet anxious turning
roint in your lives, how serious,
low solemn, does life, with its
iovs and its trials. appear in view
cf the duties and in view of the
elections of home. At this hour
we should ask Almighty God to
lave His messenger of peace
descend from above to turn the
Fcarts of the parents to the chill
frnn and the hearts of the chill
dren to the parents and to
strengthen the bonds of love and
Of devotion in the home.
For no community can be better
il strength of spirit, in progress
and in ultimate achievement, than
the individuals who make up the
community, and no individuals
can achieve any substantial pro-
gress, or progress of any sub
lance, without the bonds of love
r1hich should have developed in
the sanctuary of their homes. And
70 education is Of any lasting
value or of any intrinsic worth
unless the brightness of the fire.
sides shines forth to tell that a
divine spirit of love holds sway.
Indeed, we have cause for seri-
Gus contemplation here tonight.
These graduates are leaving High
School, whether to immediate
Jabors or to further their educa-
ton, in the dangerous thermo-
nuclear or hydrogen bomb age.
Mankind today hungers for peace,
yet sadly there is abundant evid-
ence all about us that in this world
today, mans heart has become
more calloused, sensitiveness has
been dulled, mercy has been or
phaned, even genuine sympathy
has diminished, and disrespect is
rampant.
