It was decided to hold the picnic in Wingham park the second Tuesday in August at 2 p.m. On. August 30th and September 1st. Mr. Allan Reed is. tak­ ing a bus load to Toronto Exhibition. A bicycle stand can be obtained free from the’London Free Press for a school if that school is on a high­ way, otherwise they sell at $8.50 which is half price. The topic was, “There is a place for everyone, so let everyone take her place.” The Institute is one place where every woman in the community no matter what religion or race can meet and lead in their own field. If one woman tries to lead in all fields, the result is tragic. Get all to work and there are fewer kickers. There is a place' for everyone from the school child th the grandmother. The roll call, “If I Were A Shut-in” was answered by cards, letters, maga­ zines, visits, gifts. The topic, “Progress in Our Com­ munity” was given by Mrs. T. Met­ calfe. Social welfare progress, Mothers’ allowances, baby bonus, old age and disabled pensions, were men­ tioned, No child today lacks for help nor does the aged and disabled. Education too has progressed with the forming of school areas and the bus to transport pupils to and from the high school. Likewise in medium the advancement has been as great.

W, Goble, pro­ vincial entomologist at the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, Counties reporting damage by mid-July were Kent, Oxford, Brant, Bruce, Waterloo, Lanark and South Simcoe. While the infestations reported are localized there are almost certain to be others, warns the provincial ento­ mologist. Growers are advised to walk through all their spring grain, corn and pasture, and to look for the fol* lowing symptoms: oats—kernels oa the ground and leaves gone; barley-—-. leaves and awns gone; droppings on the ground; and striped caterpillars under lumps of earth or Jn cracks in the ground. The infestations for the most part, will have to be |ocated by the grower himself, and growers are urged to ia> vestigate their fields immediately. Poison bran baits or sprays as rev commended by the agricultural repre~- sentative may be used to control out­ breaks, Baits which may be used are: paris green, aldrin, chlordane, diel­ drin, heptachlor and Toxaphene.
