Citizenry Warned
Of Phony Termite
SwindlerS Here

This is a pretty good time to
check the household for unin-
vited, hungry, occupants, other
than in-laws, that is, according
to DR.. Dale F. Bray, chairman of
the department of entomology
at the University of Delaware.
What he has in mind is ter
mites. Some of them are taking
to the air with a double pair of
wings now, and this makes them
easier to find.
There is reason for concern
about termites DR.. Bray says,
but there is no need for hasty
action nor panicky hip shooting
at shadows.
In fact, DR.. Bray says home
owners should be careful about
phony termite control operators.
The National Pest Control Asso-
citation has reported that a
swindler has been operating in
Delaware, Maryland and Penn
sylvania, calling himself a field
representative of the NPCA.
This man calls on household
ers who have had their homes
treated and checks" the job. 1t
is always a poor job according
to the crook, and he offers to do
special" job at cost. All the
homeowner has to do is sign on
the dotted line and he is out
considerable cash for which he
receives nothing of any value.
DR.. Bray suggests dealing with
reputable local pest control men.
Don't be rushed into action, +"
Bray said. Legitimate pest con-
troll association members will
not try to frighten you into TAX
ing immediate action. Termites
work very slowly, there is no
reason to panic.
Just because you find some
double-winged insects flying
about doesn't necessarily mean

you have termites, Bray said.
Winged ants are often mis-
taken for flying termites, but
it's easy to tell the difference by
the narrow waist of the ants.
The termite is smaller and is the
same width all the way down.
If you want to do little
scouting you can check around
your foundation walls for little
mud-like tubes about a quarter
inch wide. If you find any, break
them open and look for small
white insects inside. They are
the worker termites and are the
real "baddies" in this racket.

If you want more information
on the problem, write the de-

Questions and Answers About
Termites." Another publication
dealing with chemical controls
is u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture leaflet No. 324, called "Soil

Control"
Both publications are avail
able through the entomology de-
partment or your County Exten-
sion Service Office, Bray said.

Check for these tubes at all
points where wood touches the
ground or where concrete slabs
meet the walls of the house.
If you find dry sawdust-like
powder, you have another kind
of insect which is usually not a
serious problem.
You can also probe wood
areas with an ice pick to see if
there are weak spots where the
wood has been eaten away.

operator will be glad to check

Horseshoe Mystery Cleared 80
w. D. Ford Was Witness
'O5 Horseshoe Hanging

The mystery of who put the old
horseshoe above the door in the
Circuit Clerks office has been
cleared up.
We have found an eye witness
who was in the office when the
horseshoe was tackled above the
door.
W. D. Ford, eighty-three year old
native of Holmes county, was the
man who supplied us with the in
formation.
Mr.. Ford came by the office the
other day to tell us that the horse
shoe was put up during the admin
istration of the late Mr.. E. v.
Ashley and it was nailed up either
in 1905 or 1906, ne wasn't quite
sure. But he said he was in the Of
flee talking to Mr.. Ashley one day
when Mr.. Ashley's brother-in-law.
Steve Swinney, came in with the
old horseshoe.
1t seems that a horse that had
been hitched to the hitching chain
which was used to surround the
courthouse lawn mad paved the
shoe off. Mr.. Swinney picked the
shoe up and carried it into the
circuit clerks office.
That's good luck, Mr.. Ash
ley told Mr.. Swinney, put it up
over the door,.
AS the story goes Mr.. Ford said,
the courthouse janitor, Henry Haw-
kinS, was sent for. He brought in
some nails and MI. Swinney
climbed up on a chair and tackled
the horseshoe up, with the ends
pointed upward, of course to hold

Weekly
Sermon
BY Rev. Cecil MuHoy

ana ne W1St not the Lord was
departed from him." Judges 1920
1t is sad to see a strong body
weakened and wasted, going back
ward : a caSe of physical back
sliding. Sadder still, to see one who
has been gifted with a strong
mind become Intellectually weak
and important; in other words, a
mental backslider. Saddest of all
to e one who has been useful in
the Church and enthusiastic in
Christian service, and lose power
with God and man.
The fact of backsliding is one
that constantly confronts the
churches and emperils their power.
the two common kinds of back
sliding are the conscious and I'M
conscious. Many backsliders are
conscious of their backslidden con-
dition. The soulful songs they used
to sing are 10Y as tinkling GYM
balls and sounding brass. The pray
ers of the sanctuary no longer stir
their souls and incite to more UNI
selfish service. The sermon no
longer comes as a message from
God directed toward their hearts
and their need for spiritual uplift.
Their souls thirst no more for God
and His grace.
Many have backslidden and yet
are unconscious of their deplor-
able plight. While they have no Joy
in their religion, they console
themselves that they are as good
as others. They make a molehilI
of their own imperfections and a
mountain Of the imperfections of
others. Because of blurred vision,
they "See no harm in hurtfuI
things. Truly we may have eyes
and see not.
Like poor Sampson, will you dis
cover your backsliding in I'M
speakable tragedy. Though he
knew not Of his loss of power YET
it was revealed to him in his own
undoing and death. Like Sampson,
you may have a saved soul and
lost life.
One of the best evidences OF
backsliding is an indisposition and
inability to do personal work. Many
wonder why they are unable to en-
gage in this needed and splendid
service. The usual reason is that
of backsliding. Without doubt the
arrested progress of the churches
rs due, in large measure, to back
slidden members. We are saved to
serve, and hence service is the nor
NAL condition of the child of God.
Only a few of the current causes
of backsliding can be considered
Cheifest among these, is the neg
lect of secret prayer. We may
prosper spiritually without public
prayer, but no Christian can neg
lect secret prayer and not back
slide. One of the first and surest
evidences of backsliding is a fail
ure to enter the closet and pray
tothy Father in secret. The soul
seeks to find itself and it's Saw.
Jour when it whispers its needs
into the listening ears of the
Eternal.
Another cause of backsliding is
the neglect of church relations. Nc
one can neglect his church and be
true to Christ, the great Head o.
the Church. Whatever the excuse
he who willfully neglects his church
is a backslider. Many fail to move
their membership because of back
sliding. The excuses for permitting
church membership to remain TO.
from ones place of abode is us
ually too silly to merit serious con

the good luck in.
Mr.. Ford, like SO many old
time Holmes countians can relate
numerous tales of the by-gone
days. Born near Liberty Chapel,
he has spent his entire life in the
county, and for a while was in

sideration. The fact that a loved
one is buried in the graveyard by
the old church is less than no ex-
cuse for holding membership in
such a church. Gods word, and not
the geography of a graveyard
should determine the question of
church membership.
An unforgiving spirit inpariably
contributes to backsliding. Like a
cancer, malice grows at the very
vitals of the soul. Even PLATE and
Herod made friends over a cruel
fled Christ, and surely all christ
ians al meet in forgiveness at the
Cross. Someone has said that the
ground is level at the foot of the
Cross and all men are equal. The
man who cannot forgive may well
ask if Christ has forgiven him.
The same God from whom we
oackslide is the same God who
says, 4 VIII heal all your back
sliding" The door is open, and
God stands ready to welcome the
vanderer home. You will find the
Did home just where you left it.

the joys of His salvation. Many

never speak until God has healed
your backslidings. It may be

Safety Council News

"Put safety at the head of your
list in planning that vacation trip. :"
That was the advice given to
Delaware motorists yesterday by
J. James Ashton, manager of the
Delaware Safety Council.
"TOo often vacation trips are
planned without any thought for
safety on the road, and what starts
out to be a pleasure trip ends up
as another traffic calamity" he
said.
Mr.. Ashton said that the best way
to keep out of danger on the vaca-
tion trip is to plan certain basic
safety measures, and to stick to
them. These safety measures are:
ID control of speed, (2 keeping
the car safety-checked and in good
condition at all times, 60 schedul-
ing your driving for daytime hours
and allowing for occasional breaks
to minimize fatigue, and (4) obey
ing traffic signs and signals.
"If a driver starts out on the
road determined to follow these
common sense rules to protect him
self and his family in highway
traffic, there is little doubt that
his vacation will be safe as well as
fun" Mr. Ashton said.
He said that the safety council
is trying to help reduce the high
toll of traffic accidents during the
vacation period by emphasizing the
individuals responsibility for traf-
fic safety
Safety is a give-and-take prop
osition," he said. "If you want the
other fellow to do right by you on
the road, you've got to do right by
him"
