Through the Home Demonstration Club* and the inspiration of Mrs. McKlipmon have come beauty, con venlence. money In the farm home,' but moMt of all a new faith in her H*'ir and belief In her possibilities.1 With the new hats and dresses that she has learned to design and make alone the lines of-simplicity and good taste that Mrs. MdKImmon and her Home Demonstration agents have set has come a new self-respect and confidence that had much to do with the ease and assurance with which the women stood on their feet In the convention and talked as naturally as If they had been about it all of their lives. Meal planning and balancing the diet, the family cow and the milk campaign, home poultry business, better br??ad. heautlftcalion oJL the farmstead, making the home attrac tive at small cost, what It takes to make a well-dressed woman, the home demonstration club girl and her training for womanhood were some of the things they talked about, the subjects reflecting the va-1 rlOUl phases of the work of the Home j Bureau Federation of Home Dem-1 onstratlon Clubs.

IMPORT Vfl EAT CORN Million Tiny Insects Brought from France and Turned Loose to Save Millions of Dollars for the Farmers. Boston, August 2.?With the re- i lease of 1.000,000 tiny wasps, termed, habrobracons. in this Ticlnity, ex-' perts of the Bureau of Entomology.1 United States Department of Agri-] culture, hope they have jet lnrmo tion an agency that will result In the-, destruction of th? corn borer./and] the saving of millions of dollars to ,the farmers. The success of the ex-J iperiment. entomologists say, wilt not be determined until observational ? have extended over a period of y^ars. | Imported from France, in which country and In Italy the harbrobra icon has proved a relentless enemy of the corn borer, four colonies of the i insects were bred at the Government laboratories in Arlington. Whether ? the wasp can survive and flourish in the colder and more uneven climate of New England and the United I States In general Is a question still 'to be determined. I The corn borer itself 1b airlnvporT-" 'ed species, having come to America In shipments of European broom ;corn. Its ravages first attracted se rious attention in 1917 In Eastern Massachusetts. Since that time It has worked steadily westward. Last year yie borer caused damage esti mated at $1,000,000 In this state | alone. The corn borer, which In ap-J pcarance resembles a caterpillar, not only attacks corn but Inflicts injury | upon crops of beets, celery, beans, rhubarb, potatoes, peppers, buck-j wheat, and clover. Altogether, in vestigators have found the borer' guilty of damaging 211 varieties of | plants. The habfobracon is said to Injure no crop, confining Its attacks to the] borer, the gypsy and the brown tall ( moths. The wasps are very smaUn with bodies about the sire of the] head Qfca pin. The female wasp at-1 taches itself to the born borer and: la>'8 Its eggs on it. These, when they | develop, at first paralyze and later) kill the borer. The battle between borer and hab-; robracon began with the release of colonies of 250,000 habrobracons each In Saugus, Cambridge, Maiden and Arlington. Further experiments are being made by Government en tomologists with a view to flndlng other insects which may check the spread of the borer. GREAT BRITAIN HAS UNITED THE EMPIRE London. August 2.?During the war Great Britain seized a German submarine cable running from Em den to the United States, and at the conclusion of hostilities one end of the line was drawn up to England: and the other diverted to Halifax. Today at Halifax the wire Joins the telegraph system which extends | from Halifax across Canada to Van couver and thence under the sea to | FIJI, Norfolk Island, Auirtralift and New Zealand. As a result, messages can now be! sent from I?ond?n to the Antipodes In 30 minutes. Thus are the far flung parts of the British empire held together. MANILA LIKES PEItFl'MES Manila. Augujt 2.?The people of the Philippines have spent 14,273, 332 pesos for luxuries since the first of January. Of tills amount automo biles took the major part, but dia monds and other precious stones, perfumery and cosmetics show up largely In the customs records. Athens. 9ugust 2.?Fashionable women In Athens, and foreign wo-, men who follow the modern trend In dress, are being terrorised by the violent activities of a local organisa tion which terms itself "the Zealots, of Christ." The members of this associstion' hsve tsken a vow to compel modesty' in women's dress by force. Women! wearing low necked gowns or gotng | about with bare arms are often ?d the* MHMd parts of their persons are smeared with tar. . In several cases recently the male escorts of women thus attacked have given the roughs some very severe beatings, but nevertheless the syste matic campaign of molestation goes on.
