Many parents make the mistake of j expecting' school to make over a

youngster and enforce the discipline they have neglected or to correct th" behavior defects ttut have developed,

at home.

CLUBS The date of the next regular meeting of the Council of Clubs is Fr.,ruaiy 29. Place High School building. Time - 7:30 p. m. RAT DAMAGE LAST YEAR ESTIMATED AT $200,000,000

Rats are saboteurs of the most de-

structive sort it appears from the figures compiled by U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists. The damage they caused last year is estimated at more than $200000.000 easily enough to pay for two new battleships of the Iowa class or three air- |

craft carriers like the Essex. Rat damage went up duiing 1913

not so much because there were; more rats as because the cost of commodities in general had increased. Higher cost of living means higher cost of keeping rats on the

premises.

Men experienced in rat control estimate the over all rat population of American farms it around 60,000,000. The farm is the rat's great stronghold today, there he can find plenty hideouts and plenty of food he can steal Cities harbor fewer of the impudent vermin nowadays; improved rat-proof construction, better cleanup of garbage and the vanishing of the city horse are cited as factors in the rats’ back-to-the-farm

movement.

In addition to their role of thieves, ints are incendiaries. They steal matches, gnaw wire insulation, cause leakage of chemicals. Worse still, these vermin harbor smaller verniine (fleas) which in turn are carriers of two much feared diseases: the American form of typhus fever, anti bubonic plague. (Science News Letter, January 15, 1944.)

If Junior has been extremely sullen, unruly, err given to temper tarnrums or if sister has been an overly rib- child with no ,slay mates or in- | terest in children’s games, the adI vice of a doctor, child psychiatrist or child guicance clinic should be sought. Such abnon nal behavior is I a sign of emotional difficulty that needs coni cting just as much as poor ryertght or impaired hearing, if the tioubV; is deeps'ated and seiious, icliool rovaine and discipline are not likely to colivet it. Instead, the child may turn truant from school and get nto troub le that might bring him

; into court «.
