CROPS RAVAGED
' BYARMVIWORMS
f- Reports to the office of -late ento
mologist indicate that southwest Geor
<ia is being ravaged by the army worm.
Entomologist A C. Lewis in
a statement issued today dealing with
the best methods to tight the warm
jsays that caterpillars ate appearing in
large number in Jenkins. Berrien and
Mitchell counties
j In discussing the Inst methods
to combat their advance Lewis says:
» “The best way to stop the worms is
by a dust furrow This is made by
plowing a deep furrow and dragging a
log back and forth in it until a dust
mulch is formed The worms can not
well crawl up the dust) -ides and will
‘accumulate In the bottom, where they
may be killed by dragging .1 log back
and forth about ever? flfte* n minutes
or as often as it is rn-n ssury A nar
’row strip of coal tar run around the
field will catch many of th- m and stop
theft- progress until the tar is coveted
with worms
"To kill th- worm the . lop should bi
dusted with Paris green or powdered
arsenate of lead. If Paris green is used
Ji should be mixed with flour and air
slaked lime Mix equal parts of Palis
green and flout with thr- > or four pails
of air-slaked lime.”

Indian Relates Legend of Flower
HOW WATER LILY CAME
“How th- U atei Lllv Caine" was a
»
sto-y loid ibis morning witb beautiful
language and great dramatic effect by
the old Indian woman who takes the
pait of Nokomis In the group of r-al
Indians who are presenting “Hiawatha"
at Inman Park twice daily.
The story, a- l ording to R. S Pig
gott, who reads the poem while the
Indians enact It and who acts as a kind
o f stage director, is only one of many
-harming legends of the flowers which
has been handed down through gener
ations of Indians.
"Yes. there are many tales of my
people, but who cares for them now?
Our children go to the white man’s
school and do not care, and the white
man only laughs," said the old woman.
"My grandfather told me this. When
all the world was fair, and there was
no - vil in it. our people lived near a
b-.ittliful small lake. Bv day we saw
the stm reflected In It. unless there
were clouds, and b\ night we some
times saw tile evet-changing moon, but

filled with light, so that one saw many
other things in the water, but at night
when the moon was away our star
shone alone
Grew to Love “Our Star.”
“So we grew' to love tile star and
railed her Our Star.’ The star felt
our love and longed to be nearer, so
she left the sky and nestled in the
heart of a prairie flower, but the
stamping of the buffalo startled her
and she wept back to the sky
“Again she came to the heart, of
flower on the mountain, but her loneli
ness van greater than before While
she was hiding in the prairie and flower
and the flower of the mountain, our
people missed her and mourned her.
“One cloudy night when we could
see nothing she came to the lake to
rest on its surface, but the lake was
ruffled by a wind and she was driven
hither and thither, but when the morn
ing came the 'lake was covered with
beautiful snow-white blossoms, each
of which held a part of ’Our Star.’
“When the people, saw them they
were glad, saying, ’Our Star’ is with us
in the day as well as the night. Thus
came the water lily out of darkness
and sorrow.”

No 'Keep Off Grass' Signs in Parks
LOLL WHEREVER YOU LIKE
“The parks ate for the people; not
the people for the parks,” said Dan
Carey, park manager, today.
“There will be no more Keep off
the Grass’ signs in Atlanta parks.
What’s grass for if people can’t stroll
on it. lie on it. enjoy it. People don’t
hurt grass unless there is unusually
heavy passage over it, and even If a
plot is rtflned, it will grow again next
yea r.
“This isn’t peculiar to Atlanta. The
’Keep off the Grass’ signs are going
into the scrap pile all over the coun
try. Park commissioners are realizing
that recreation draws people to the
parks. The playground feature is be
ing emphasized, not the artistic. The
people want recreation, not soul uplift.
If they attain soul uplift it will be only
through recreation.”
Mr. Carey’s order that “spooners”
should not be molested further, that
seats for two should be placed in cozj’
spots and away from the lights, and
that holding hands should not consti
tute a misdemeanor, was told in The
Georgian several days ago. He stoutly
defended his position today.
“Why shouldn’t the parks encourage
courtship?” he asked. "This is a big
city now. It has hundreds and thou
sands of girls who have no place to be
courted except the boarding house pal
lor. with everybody rubbering, or the
parks. Why shouldn't young fellows
court their girls in the parks?
“We used to have a couple arrested
if we caught them kissing or holding
hands. In future they may kiss all
they, like, but we’ll arrest the man who
spies on them.”
