Dear Uncle Ted:

to learn that my sister Marion

is one mistake that was made
though. I am a boy and not a

BASEBALL.
Baseball is the National
Game of the United States. II
is one of the most enjoyable
games there IL. 1t is fun to watch
a game of baseball or play in 1t.
Would 1t not be fine If you could
knock out a home rum with the
bases full and win the game for
your team. That is one of the
most desired objects of PROBES
sional ball players.
TO American boys the Ma.
tional Game is easy to learn but
to foreigners It Ia very hard.
People who do not understand
baseball ask SO many foolish
questions about 1t that one who
knew the game would almost die
laughing at them. Like the
Irishman who asked a player who
had Just cracked out a three-bag-
ger, why he did not rum right to
third base instead of to first
second and then third base. Base
ball Is now played in France and
Is rapidly progressing in Inn.
portance In other European
countries. Baseball IL one OF
the best games on the face of the
earth.

The Superior Folk
BY BERTO N BRALEY.

BY BERTO N BRALEY.
Let's get together and tell ourselves
How supreme we are.
Let's perch way up on our lofty shelves
And gaze on life from afar;
Let's look with scorn on the common herd
Who toll at a useful job,
Let's speak of art as magic word
And sneer at the busy mob"
Let's speak of faith as an outworn thing.
OF love as q creed that's dead,
At everything simple and plain we'll fling
A barb with a poisoned head
Let's jest at honor and sneer at law
And chortle at truth as rot.
Till people murmur I'VE never saw
Such a hberal-minded lot
And while we jabber and sneer and smirk
And our words of wisdom fall
The world will trudge to its daily work
And never will care at all!

How Germs Travel.

When people become sick they Of
ten wonder how they ever caught"
it. They didn't catch anything.
"It" caught them and usually
the cit" is fly or mosquito. Peo-
pie used to think chills and fever
came from swamps just because the
swamps bred the kind of mosquitoes
which took keen delight in biting
a person with malaria and then in
biting one who didn't have it.
If you could follow fly for a day
or could see the germs on its pad.
like feet you would not be surprised
at getting sick.
The only safe way to prevent the
spread of disease by flies is to clean
out all filth so that flies can't be
Matched and to kill all the flies ir
sight.

That was a pretty scheme, and

That was pretty scheme, and it
worked fine, for the hotels at
Wrightsville Beach to get a lot of
free advertising, when they sent out
word that unless they were allowed
to sell beer. all the hotels at that
beach would be compelled to close
for lack of sufficient patronage to
keep them going. The hotels are
still running and we are told that
they have the largest attendance in
their history. But nothing has beer
said as to whether you can get beer
or not.
