THE FOREST CITY (N. C.) COURIER
11 NEVER-ENDING WAR
ON INSECT PESTS
11
, j One war that never ceases is that
) j waged by insects* upon man. Every
! year insects cost the human race mil
j Hons upon millions of dollars by their
" S destruction of growing crops and
1 j stored harvests. And they kill or
! j maim thousands of human beings by
I spreading disease.
j Science is constantly engaged In
' I investigating new means of keeping
I ! insect foes at bay. and wonderful
I I work has been done.
" j The stamping out of malaria in
I large areas once almost uninhabitable.
!  and the checking of the spread of
I j sleeping sickness are examples of
j what has been accomplished.
! Now conies news of a discovery
| may open up entirely new lines
iof attack on insect, pests. For a loin:
I time past a young Australian scien
j tist. Dr. F. G. Holdaway, has been en
• deavoring to find a way of dealing
i with the flour beetle, which does an
enormous amount of damage. He has
found that the proportion of gruhs
that turn into mules and females can
be controlled by regulating their food;
starve a hundred grubs for one day
and the majority will develop into
wale beetles.
: Now. the female beetle may lay
« thousands of eggs. If, therefore, he
has found a means of decreasing the
number of females, the beetle pest
may be kept down. Similar prin
ciples of sexxontrol may be found ap
plicable to othe.r insect enemies of
man.
QUIET QUIPS
A woman's face isn't always as bad
bs it is painted.
A train of thought should never be
allowed to run wild.
Do not rest on your laurels: they
make a poor mattress.
Blushes are the luminous reflections
of a woman's thoughts.
An optimist is a man who lays up
sunshine for a rainy day.
lie who is sorry for having sinned
is almost innocent. —Seneca.
There are times when a man is
afterward glad he had no pistol.
When one waits on himself he con
siders himself well waited on.
Your frieiid doesn't flatter you; he
really means it, bless his golden heart.
One proclaims he won't "enter into
further argument" after he has made
his.
Even when men go to the dogs, the i
dogs, friendly creatures, welcome j
them.
All social theories, no matter how j
line, have to deal with selfish human,
beings.
, A wise executive lets a man do the j
work his own way if it helps the j
business.
Man learned to say "No" before hy
learned to say "Yes"; or he wouldn't
be on earth now.
No man can utterly control him
self; hut does that make lilm chari
table toward others?
A man simply can't be a failure at
everything if somebody will give him
the right kind of a steer.
Bringing Up the Past
A certain millionaire film magnate
arrived in New York from Hollywood
and proceeded to make cyclonic hive
to one of the youVig women of the
chorus, for whom he expressed the
greatest admiration and respect.
She made certain discreet inquiries,
and as the result of "information re-
sjie asked him whether he
was married.
"No!" he said. "I am a bachelor."
"Liut," persisted the girl, "1 was
! told only yesterday that you were a
j married man."
"Not now," said the film magnate |
i nonchalantly; "though, mind you, Ij
did have a few wives some years ago." j
Unselfish Idealism
"There is nothing that develops un- j
selfish idealism like music," remarked j
the esthetic enthusiast.
"Evidently," rejoined the impres
ario. "you have never heard a soprano
when she was talking salary or a
crowd of chorus singers going on a j
strike.''
Fortune Lying Loose
A young Pittsburgh business man i?
stili tingling from the experience of
walking into a downtown bank there
the other day to write a check and
finding on the counter, right under his
nose, a signed and indorsed check foi
?r»S,HX>. He turned it in to the bank
officials and was cordially thanked. '
