ST. PAUL'S LUTHERAN CHURCH
opportunity ‘may be
granted to God’s people every-
where to worship Him in His
Church on Sunday, August 19. If
we were to say, “Our Lord Jesus
Christ will be here in Person on
Sunday,” our Churches would not
be large enough to accommodate
all our people. The truth of the
matter is, He is here now in the
Presence of His Holy Spirit. Chris-
tians can understand this—others
must be helped. It is with this
thought in mind that at The Ser-
vice in St. Paul's on Sunday at
11, the Rev. F. W. Moock, Jr. will
use as his sermon theme “Co-
Another
Workers.” Members, friends and
tourists are most cordially wel-
ome,
Sunday school will be held at the
usual hour—9:45 A. M. The lesson
will be “The Christian and His
Government.” Read before - hand
the Scripture lesson in Luke 20:19-
26 and I Peter 2:13-17. We have
classes for all ages.
Wanta Stay Alive?
Don’t Drink and Drive
To stay alive, don’t drink and
drive! 3
That was the conclusion of the
National Safety Council after its
figures for 1950 showed that in
one out of every five fatal acci-’
dents the driver or pedestrian had
been drinking.
The 1951 edition of the Council's
statistical yearbook, “Accident
Facts,” states that 17 per cent of
the drivers involved in fatal acci-
dents and 22 per cent of the adult
pedestrians killed in motor vehicle
accidents had been drinking.
Rural Auto Accidents
More Than’ In Cities
When you drive a car, you're a
lot safer among the tall buildings
than out in the tall corn!
According to the 1951 edition of
the National Safety Council’s Sta-
tistical yearbook, ‘‘Accident Facts,”
it is more than twice as dangerous
to drive in rural areas as in cities.
Of the 35,000 motor vehicle
deaths in 1950, rural accidents ac-
counted for 24,800 and mishaps in
cities 10,200. The rate of deaths
per 100,000,000 miles traveled was
10.5 in rural areas and 4.6 in cities.

Penna. Leads In Parasite
War On Japanese Beetles
Pennsylvania leads all states in #
long-time efforts to kill ‘off Ja-
panese beetles through distribution
of other insects that are ‘sworn
enemies’ of the little brown and
green beetles which currently are
destroying corn silk, roses and
many other plants in virtually
every part of the State.
Colonies of beetie parasites
known as tiphia wasps, first im-
ported 25 years ago from Korea,
have been liberated in 560 differ-
ent locations where heavy infes-
tations of the Jap beetles have been
reported according to Dr. Thomas
L. Guyton, director, Bureau of
Plant Industry, State Department
of Agriculture. There are now mil-
lions of these ‘digger’ wasps
scattered over the State, aiding in
the killing of beetle grubs under-
ground. About 400 colonies have
been distributed in Maryland and
approximately 375 in New Jersey,
records show.
Jap beetles, according to early
reports to the Department, are not
as heavy in numbers this year as
last in the Harrisburg and south-
eastern Pennsylvania area. How-
ever, they are appearing in larger
numbers than ever in certain cen-
tral and western Pennsylvania
areas.
The Jap invaders arrived in Phil-
adelphia 32 years ago, buried as
grubs in the soil of some plants
imported from Japan. Since then
they have spread to all parts of the
Commonwealth except for a score
of townships in the northwestern
corner, south and east of Erie.
Parasitic tiphia wasps were im-
ported from Korea in 1925-26 when
a colony was established at Valley |’
Forge. Each year new colonies of
female tiphias have been collected
there, and in recent years from a
colony established on a Department
of Agriculture farm near Harris-
burg. The wasps fly for only a few
days during mating season. Females
then burrow into the ground to de-
posit eggs on the soft underside
of beetle grubs, laying only one egg
on each 20 to 50 grubs. When
the wasp egg hatches the larvae de-
vours the beetle grub, a case of
“grub eat grub’.
Another instrument of death to
Jap beetles is what is known as
“milky disease” which harms noth-
-| ing except Jap beetle grubs ‘under-
ground. It was first used in Penn-
sylvania about 16 years ago and
since then it has been spread on
practically every golf course, ceme-
tery, park and other grassland
areas where beetles have been
found to exist in large numbers.
With both of these beetle-de-
stroying aids it will still take years
to get the pest down to the point
where it is no longer a menace or
scourge. Such a condition now ex-
ists in Philadelphia and surround-
ing counties where most Jap Beet-
les have ‘gone native” and are
considered no: more destructive
than most other common insects
within the area, except that they
continue to damage blooms of ro-
ses and some other plants,
Where beetles are highly des-
tructive, the use of wettable DDT
as a spray provides relief, repeated
at intervals to keep new leaf
growth covered.

see every parking lot filled and

harried motorists
looking in vain for
an empty space. Your
