But They Didn't.
Oh, Harry came along the lane,
And he was very late;
He hurried on to cbtch the train,
And had no time to wait,
He must hasten ! He must hasten !
But against the pane
He naught a glimpse of Katie,
And he didn't, he didn't, he didn'i
Oh, Katie had her doughnuts cut;
The sponge was light as air;
Her pies were in the oven shut.
And needed all her care:
She must give them every moment,
But she spied young Harry there,
- And she didn't, she didn't, she didn'i
Oh, Harry stopped, and spoke a wore
And spoke it very low,
And yet I think that Katie heard,
And still believed it so.
Thp' all the while the youth averred
That he would have to go,
Bat lie didn't, he didn't, he didn't.
Oli, Katie said the fire was warm,
And she was likely to drop,
And Harry seemed to think his arm
Was needed as a pi op;
And Katie was in such alarm
She said that he must stop:
Bat he didn't, he didn't, he didn'tAnd
as he held h*r to his breast,
And thought of all he'd missed.
With Katie waiting in her nest,
Just longing to be kissed,
He bent his head, her face was hid.
I saw aflash and gleam
Of lovely eyes, and then lie did;
I thought thegirl would scream,
But she didn't, the didn't, she didn't

A Difference That Exists Between
eu This and the True Army Worm, Mr.
*al
m- Luginbill Says.?How to Get Rid of
Thl.
Te ^
,n- Columbia.?Wliat 'was supposed to
d. be the fall army worm was found on
to the university campus recently "by
he Phillip Luginbill, the federal entomolIr.
ogist for the states of Florida, Georgia
,n_ and Soudi Carolina. The worms are
very small, and it will be several days
jn before the government official can de
, termine just what they are.
There is a difference between the
to true and the fall army worm. The fall
as army worm feeds largely upon grass,
to letting cotton and corn alone as long
as there are blades of grass in its
pathway. The true army worm is a
orarQfoi ap r>mnivomn s feeder.
JLJJ.L/1 O V. w?? . w. 7
devouring any green stuff that it
d- comes upon. Mr. Luginhill went to
St. Matthews again to investigate
bg conditions there. The true army
ar worm was found in that part of the
ua state several weeks ago, feeding upon
h, vetch.
ve The entomologist is devoting his
^ time now largely to studying the
greater corn stalk borer. This insect
*v_ burrows into the heart of the stalk
1_ and gradually eats its way downward
ve to the -base, leaving only a hollow
- i _
or shell. A patch of sweet corn was aea*
strayed by this pest within past few
30 weeks on the state farm, about seven
miles north of Columbia. A report
came from Newberry of a half acre
f. being infested there.
er One method of destroying the pest
^ is crop rotation. When the stalk dies
in the fall the borer remains in the
e' dead stalks, and if the same land is
a planted in corn the following year the
a? borer pupates, and again the field is
3k infested. The safest plan is to pull
le the stalks up by the roots and burn
them, as the borers are often down at
he the very -base.
[9. Farmers who find infected plants in
their crops should write directly to
the entomological laboratories in LaConte
college at the state university.

No Prosecution
Under Webb Law
Washington, June 10.?The Webb
law forbidding interstate shipments of
liquor into "dry" States is not a crimI
inal statute and violations of it can
[ not be prosecuted in the United States
courts.
Attorney General McReynoids so declared
in instructions sent today to
every United States attorney in the
country. The law merely prohibits
such interstate traffic and contains no
penalty for infractions.
"Irs purpose," said the attorney
general, "is to permit State laws to
operate in respect of intoxicating
liquors moving in interstate com1
merce."
The law simply deprives shippers of
any privileges they might claim on the
ground of interstate commerce and
permits the application of State prohibition
laws to interstate commerce
in liquors.
