THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL AGE TWO Thursday, 'August 31. 1950 REV. ROBERT H, HARPER Peter, Who Became a Man of Poutr." Lesson for September 3: Acts : $.20. . - - . Memory Selection: Acts 5:29. SIMON was at the first like the shifting waves of his own Sea of Galilee. But he became as firm as the hills that rise about Galilee' shores. In the courtyard of the high priest's palace, he thrice denied his Lord, and even with an oath. But Peter in the Firelight was followed by Peter on the Seashore. Under the three-fold questioning of Jesus, he vowed a love that was never be lied by denial or show of wavering. From that hour he was truly Peter, the Rock. He became a great preacher. On the day of Pentecost, he preached with such power that 3,000 persons yrere added to the infant church. And the lesson text tells how Peter fend John, when the council forbade them to speak in the name of Jesus, eaid they would hearken to the voice of God rather than that of men and declared they would con tinue to preach what they had seen and heard. Peter interests men because the most of them are like Peter in their human weakness and their many falls. But let us strive to be like him in his later days when he proved true to the name Jesus gave him. As Peter became a man of power, so can we grow strong for our Lord. For, as we believe in Jesus and love him. the Lord can communicate enough of his power unto us to make us big and brave In our service for him.

Cool wet weather has slowed development of the borers and has apparently pre vented extensive egg laying by the moths already emerged. The few hot days experienced dur ing the week increased the egg masses found in southeastern Nebraska somewhat, but not to a serious extent.It is donbtful that the second generation will become a problem in the south east, but late-planted fields should be watched for a pos sible outbreak in the next few weeks. The situation in northeast Ne braska is somewhat more com plicated. Second generation egg laying has been reported as just beginning in a few scattered fields. Borers of the first gen eration found in growing plants vary from very small larvae to fully grown larvae and pupae. A few empty pupal cases have been found, indicating that a few moths have emerged- Such a wide range of development in dicates that emergence of moths and egg laying will take place over a longer period of time. This will be serious only in extremely late corn. Early to medium maturing corn may be expected to develop to a stage beyond serious injury before many second generation borers appear. The later fields may be expected to suffer a much longer period of attack by the borers. The development of the bor ers in southwest Nebraska is somewhat behind other areas. In the ' area along the Platte River the borers have not yet reached the pupal stage, while further south pupation has just begun. Moth emergence and egg deposition in numbers is not ex pected in the area for a least a week. Presence of egg masses does not necessarily mean treatment is necessary. Remember the treatment recommendations of 12 pounds of DDT per acre when the egg mass count reaches 100 per 100 plants. Meters Are Catchalls BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (U.P.)
