 since meningitis has appeared in some parts of the state in epidemic form, we deem it w.se to issue the following bulletin:
 Cerebro-spinal Meningitis is an infectious disease. lit attacks healthy people.
 General resistance is of less i'm portance than temporary local ass st, ance. ...
 The nose and tonsils are the DOT tals of infection.
 See that the noses and the tensile of your children are in healthy coalition and keep them so by using antiseptic sprays aud gargles.
 Prevent spreading infection from ths nose and throat by :neisttng that the children use the same precau- tions in regard to discharges as they would use for the sputum of tuber- culosis.
 Keep she hair, skin and clothing clean.
 Prompt and concerted action on the part of parents and children saved Little Rock from an epidemic last year. The same can be accom- plished ths year.

spite of the fact that the Grays are
going good just now.

cleverly enough to win but received
poor support.

was of the championship quality.
Britton pitched cleverly. His con-
troll was not SO good in the second
inning he worked, but the Tigers say,
he could beat any team in this league
If he is right.
Eschen broke up Saturdays game
with a home run and Calhoun
smashed the second game yesterday,
the same way.
Chubby Manser says the reason he
refused to go to the Eastern Asso-

notuher in football and basketball
and his work in baseball gave him
a place on the team. 1t was at
football, however that he excelled in.
He was the teams mainstay for two
seasons in the baellfield and it was
partly through his work that the
Baringer eleven attained such a high
record on the gridiron. Mills played
as a regular on the varsity nine at
Notre Dame last summer, and was
a member of the varsity basketball

C IS
Now that the bike fans have seen
Bill Bailey perform, the impression
seems to be that, while he will do, he
Will not outshine Donald McDougali
TO any great extent. This opinion
prevails after his race with Gus
Wohlrab at the Velodrome yesterday
and after Bailey, with little effort,
mind you, disposed of his opponent in
two straight heats The victory was
about the easiest thing imaginable,
yet quite a number of the fans were
not so sure that Bill would beat
Donald as they were before they had
seen him perform. Hearing SO much
about the prowess of Bailey probably
put many of the fans in way of eX-
pecting too much from the English
man. Surely he did all that was asked
of him, and he did 1t in such com
mandng style and in such a positive
manner that he should not have lost
any respect as result of his efforts.
! But he. has. Now, good sound fans
who didn't give McDougall a look-in
| before his race with Wohlrab are
rather certain at the present time that
Donald, if beaten, will not be dis
| graced. 49,,
That's the way it goes sometimes
The tickle fan changes with the
wind. For a moment he can see moth
ing but Bailey, then all of sudder
he can see "out of both eyes" thai
McDougall has more than passing
chance.
The complaint about Bailey's rae,
yesterday seems to be that, Bill
didn't show the fans anything to Civ,
them a line on what he might dc
against McDougall OF course
everybody knows Donald's game anC
knows what he can do After thu
Bailey race, though, everybody
seemed to be in the dark. Bailey can
not be blamed for that, however, 70
the did his part well. He raced hi
opponent into submission when TIN
time came and he won with com
parative ease on each occasion
What else he could have done il
hard to tell. yet the spectators didn'
feel as If they were able to pass judg

way or to leap from one side of the
ing. Whereas Bailey, who is only
human, simply went out on the track
won his race with as little energy
as possible and made no blow or no
bones about it. He was indeed I'M
ostentatious and didn't play for any
particular demonstration. The APP
plause he received was well deserved
and he accepted it gracefully Still
the fans who have been hopeless
ever since Bill Bailey's visit to this
country has been known, seemed to
pick up courage after seeing him race
and now are giving Donald half a
chance at least.
C
al Reich seems to have made a
good enough showing against Sailor
White to get him in a more preten-
tious bout. In beating White, who
took on the match out of condition,
Reich didn't do much, of course, but
he performed his task in such a thor
ough manner that he must be given
credit in that respect. Reichs next
opponent will be the redoubtable Carl
Morris, and the men will meet in
Madison Square Garden next Friday
night. That will be a pretty good
test, although Morris never amounted
to anything. and has been beaten sew
eral times. However, it may show
us whether Reich is worth the while
For one thing, Al has all the lines of
a fighter. He Is tall, has a long reach
and he is developed SO symmetrlcally
that he doesn't look within many
pounds of his correct weight, which
Is 210. No one seems to have much of
line ON the fellow, and Jimmy De
Forest, his trainer, is not saying a
great deal. The fellow himself seems
to be in doubt as to his capabilities,
and his most fear seems to be whether
he can take a good licking. He is
apparently anxious to be sturdy and
game, but he has his doubts. He
doesn't know, because he has never
| been tested. That is a funny argu-
ment for a fighter, but he will find
out soon enough
