DR.. CRAIG Pest Control say

Dr.. Craig Pest Control says
Watch Those Fleas!
Pet owners should be on
guard against flea infection of
house and yards these hot
summer days. both out of con-
sideration to animals and the
neighbors.
Fleas can breed quickly and
spread rapidly around neigh
borhood. There are quite a
few reliable insect sprays and
pet soaps that can control and
eradicae fleas before they get
cut of hand.
Homes and yards should be
sprayed thoroughly when
fleas become evident. Many
dogs and cats experience un-
told misery - and neighbors
al 0 suffer when pet owners
neglect this all important pre-
csution.
Another Thing: All creatures
need cool drinking wafer in
the sultry summertime. Keep
those pans and bird baths full
for an extra star In vour
crown.

The Master
Harold Macmillan is very
much master in his own
home. When he makes deci-
sions they stand, right or
wrong. whether they relate
to a political point or to the
color of new curtains.
For there is one thing
above all others which upsets
him and brings down that
gloomy cloud Of disapproval
anyone who panics.
With the Government run
ming through a rough pas
sage, some of the woe-woe
commentators are suggest
ing that the Conservatives
will introduce all sorts of
handouts for everyone as a
sop to the electorate-that
Macmillan will take panic
measures to win back popu-
larity among what is known
here as the floating vote"
But these commentators
forget the Prime Minister'S
detestation of anyone who
flaps. In public or at home,
he is likely to remain Mac
the unflappable."

LONDON.-Is the popular
image Of Mac the unflap-
pable" just a product of Con-
servative Party publicity?
This is what critics of
Prime Minister Macmillan in
the House of Commons have
been saying for some time.
The suggestion has been
that in his private life. far
from being placid and easy
going, Harold Macmillan is
a bundle of nerves.
Here is an inside" pic
ture. as seen through the
eyes Of the person best quail
flied to know-his wife, Lady
Dorothy Macmillan, VIII o,
however, will not be accom-
panying him on his present
trip to the United States.
Daughter of the ninth Duke
of Devonshire and therefore
entitled to the Lady" in her
own right, the Prime Minis
ter's wife is an extremely
friendly, frank, no-nonsense
type.
Winning Grace
Neither beautiful nor styl-
iSh. she possesses that most
winning grace of talking to
you as though you were the
sole object of her interest.
Ask her how the crises in
Parliament affect the Prime
Minister'S domestic life and
she says she can sense imme-
diately when something is
wrong. Not that he displays
ill-temper.
Il have never seen him lose
his temper in all the years
I have known him." says
Lady Dorothy. They have
been married AZ years.
No, Harold Macmillan at
home does not throw things
about; he does not slam
doors; he does not shout.
What he does is far more
awe-inspiring. With great
dignity. he simply withdraws
into himself.
When he is upset." says
Lady Dorothy, "he shuns ev-
erybody and goes off on his
own-perhaps for a walk, or
more often he shuts himself
in his study"
