TOURNAMENT
In Tennis This Year Starts
August 6
3rd Annual Affair To Be
Record Breaker

The third annual tennis tournament
of the town and county will occur this
year a few weeks earlier than usual
owing to the Chautauqua. While the
date has not been decisively fixed,
the tournament will, in all prcbabil-
ity, open next Wednesday, August 6,
this allowing two weeks to run it off
in before the Chautauqua starts.
Through the kind services of tne
owners, the Round Hill tennis court
has again been offered for use. It
is also planned to use several other
courts in the first and second pre-
liminary rounds as it has been une
experience of the last two years that
these rounds have seriously impeded
the progress of the tournament itself
Owing to the unusually large number
of available courts in town this year,
there is no doubt but that the tourna-
ment will be run off in record break.
ing time.
A larger number of entries than
ever before is promised owing to the
renewed interest in tennis, occasion
ed, to large degree by the annual
tournaments. Thus one of the pri-
mary aims of the tournaments has
been achieved, /. e., the creation of
wholesome interest in the game
in tha o0mpnupitv
This year, the committee will be
enabled to offer better prizes than
ever before, through the good sup
port offered last years tournament
by the people of Mt. Vernon. These
will aggregate in value $25 and will
be given in addition to the two cups
which go to the winners of the ladies'
singles and the mems singles. Thus
by winning one of these events, the
fortunate contestant will receive not
merely the possession of the cup for
year, but also very handsome and
valuable prize.
The committee during the next few
days will secure the entrance fee of
fifty cents from those who desire to
contest. The same admission price
of twenty five cents for the series
will prevail again this year.

OLDEST AMERICAN
NAVAL OFFICER

Washington, d. c., July 90-Rear
Admiral James H. Watmough, the old
est officer on the retired list of the
United States Navy, celebrated his
ninety-first birthday anniversary to-
day. Born in Pennsylvania in 1922,
Admiral Watmough became a mid
shipman in 184S and for forty years
was in active service in the navy, In
the early part of his career he par
ticipated in the naval operations of
the Mexican war and in the conquest
of California. He served throughout
the civil war and later became pay
master-general of the navy. Since his
retirement from active service in 1884

Quail
And Dove Given Protection
Until 1915

The dove comes in for equal pro-
lection with the quail in the new law
that has just gone into effect, max
ing a closed season until November
Is, 1913, for the quail. The law men
tions the Carolina dove,' but there
is but one dove here, the common
mourning dove or turtle dove, as it
is sometimes called. Lately the dove
has come in for much popular shoot
ing in the fall when the birds have
begun to congregate for the migra-
tion toward the south. At that sea-
son they frequent pools where they
offer fine wing shooting.
But the dove does not multiply
rapidly. But two eggs are laid and
there is usually but one brood a
year. The nest is very poor affair
and many eggs do not hatch. Be
cause of these facts the shooting has
depleted the stock OF the dove in
the state until it promised to follow its
cousin, the wild pigeon, into extinc-
ton. Hence the two-years' closed
season.

TUBERCULOSIS
Exhibit Will Tour The State
OF Ohio

The exhibit of the tuberculosis de-
partment of the Ohio board of health,
will be assembled and shown for the
first time during the coming state
fair.
DR.. R. G.. Paterson, who has the
matter in charge, has been advised
that the government will aid him in
making the exhibit complete, sending
along some of their most valued and
expensive designs. Besides the gov
ernment, the tuberculosis societies of
both Cleveland and Cincinnati will
have exhibits and the state health
board will spend several hundred dol
lars in original and unique display.
The object of this exhibit is to show
not only the dangers Of tuberculosis
but how easily it may be prevented.
Hundreds OF cases have been found,
upon investigation, which could have
been prevented with the proper pre-
cautions in the daily routine of house
hold duties or in the manner of living.
Inasmuch as a successful treatment
for tuberculosis has not been found
the society will strike at the root of
the disease and try to overcome the
rapid spread, by teaching the people
of Ohio how to prevent contraction of
the disease, which means in practical
ly every case slow but sure death.
Experienced lecturers will accom-
pany the exhibit when tour of the
state is made directly at the close of
the state fair 1t is planned to take
the exhibit to every county in Ohio.
