For He commandeth, and raiseth the, stormy wiiid, which lifteth up the waves thereof. They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble. . They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit’s end. Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distress es, He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.” Psalm 107; 23-30. During the dry season, keep all shrubbery and plants watered. It is best tp water a few times and water them well than often^and water sparingly. Always water in daytime as this prevents mildew on the foliage. Mulch shrubbery to protect the roots. Berry producing shrubs have to have a sufficient amount of water to keep the ber ries. See that the birds have plenty of water for bathing purposes.

If the roots are exposed to the sun—they will not have the rot. Soap or nicotine sulfate will kill thrips in iris. Thrips thrive in hot weather. If you have nemotades in your iris—throw away your plants and start in a new section that hasn’t had nematodes in it. After you grow a cereal crop on your soil it will correct this condition. When larkspur turns brown' and rots at the root it ’has Southern rot, destroy all plants. When lilies turn brown and flop down, it is called limber neck. No one knows much about it.

For men may come and men may go, But I go on forever. With many a curve my Lambs, I fret By many a field and fallow. Are many a fairy foreland set With willow-weed and mallow. I wind about and in and out. With here a blossom sailing, ,, ^^nd here and there a lusty trout,^: , And here and there a grayling. I steal by lawns and grassy plots, I slide by hazel covers; I move the sweet forget-me-nots That grow for happy lovers. I murmur under moon and stars. In brambly wilderness; I linger by my shingly bars, I loiter round my cresses. And out again I curve and flow To join the brimming river, For men may come and men may go. But I will go on forever. —Alfred Tennyson Steve Cochran and Fay Spain play husband and wife in “The Beat Generation," powerful dra ma laid against a topical back ground of today's controversial "beatniks."

You don’t need to do a lot of hard digging to unearth treasure from eggs, to bring it refined and gleaming to the table at meal time, snack time or anytime. Miss Jo Earp, nutritipn specialist for the N. C. Agricultural Exten sion Service, says that the golden egg contains “pure nuggets of nu trition and pleasurable eating. Eggs can weld the ingredients for im pressive cakes, pastries, custards, or puddings. “Summer. nrieals, picnics, and snacks of eggs alone, or in combi nation with 'mflk arid dairy' prod'- ucts, fresh vegetables, meats and fish provide added protein, yet are light and appealing to hot-weather appetites. Eggs boast health-protect ing A, B and D vitamins, and the yOlk holds a rich store of iron, some phosphorus, and other needed min erals.” Use eggs with a lavish hand during this period of seasonal abundance, advises Miss Earp. Small causes are sufficient to make many a man uneasy, when great ones are not in the way. FOr want of a block, he will stumble at a straw. — Swift.

Our congratulations to the New Bern Public Library for coming up with a clever idea to increase summer-reading among the town’s small fry. A make believe tree—11 feet tall — has been rigged up, and evei^ time a child reads a book he or she gets to hang a leaf on the tree with his or her name signed to it. In order to qualify for a leaf, the moppet has to give a book review. That in itself is excellent training, since a tot of us parents aren’t too adept at presenting such a review. At last report, no less than 264 children between the first and si\ grades had registered for this tree gimmick. Believe it or not, one little girl has already read and reported on 51 books. Most of the youngsters fall well below that mark, but collectively they have hung so many leaves on the tree that it is sporting an abundance of foliage. Judging by existing enthusiasm, the librarian tnay have to put up another tree, or establish a small forest. Incidentally, your child would no doubt enjoy the story hour at the library each Wednesday after noon at 3:30. It’s efficiently con ducted, and kids attending are finding it delightful and intriguing. You probably don’t need to be reminded that Walt Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty” is opening its run at the-Kehoe today. Our guess is you’ve heard nothing else for days. Like other Disney productions, his latest work of art has universal appeal. Adults—especially those of us approaching second childhood— will find it just as appealing as the small fry who are looking for ward to seeing it. In wact, we’re inclined to think that parents would be showing wisdom if they went to the movies oftener with their children, to share the pleasure of good films. Your local theatres do show such films, and it’s up to us to take ad vantage of them. Among mortals second thoughts are wisest.—Euripides.
