GEORGIA STATE
LEAGUE CHANGES
SALARY LIMIT MUST BE REDUc-
ED-NGW PRESIDENT TO
BE ELECTED. ~

In a letter addressed to Vice Presi-
dent James Sinclair, of the Georgia
State league, President l. J. Kalmon,
o. Americus, states that ne viii not
be a a1didate for reelection as pres
ident a, he annual meeting of the
league dir ors, which viii probably
be called sho Y.
According to ports from several
members Of the league, a man who
does not live in city in the circuit
will be named as president and sec
rotary. This IL is said, VIII remove
one cause Of so much complaint
which always makes the season any
thing but pleasant In this connection
it is said that Nick Cornish, president
of the South Atlantic league, Is IA
yored by more than one member Of
the Georgia State league ana may be
prevailed upon to accept the presi-
dency.
That the salary limit be reduced
from 1900 to 5000, exclusive of the
managers salary, is one Of the rec
concentrations President Kalmon has
just made, as it is known that the
league cannot exist another year wica
a large salary limit and no effort on
the part of any member Of the league
to observe the limit.
War or no war, the cities included
in Georgia State want baseball a.
other year, and it is felt here that
the league viii open as usual next
spring. The schedule for next season
will be prepared in a way that long
jumps will be entirely eliminated.
During lie past season the excessive
railroad expenses Il abe it hard N
osome of the teams. Vice President
Sinclair is confident these objections
can be removed and a schedule that
will be acceptable to all will be ar
ranged.

new BUILDINGS FOR
VALMORA SANATORIUM
WILL HAVE RE.
CREATION HALL AND LIGHT
ING PLANT

Dr.. w. 7. Brown, superintendent Of
the Valmora industrial sanatorium,
announced today that the institution
is to have in the near future a new
recreation hall, asmodern dairy barn,
an electric lighting plant and numer-
Gus other improvements. This is di-
rectIy due to a recent visit to the in
stitution of p. H. Scott, Of Carson.
Pirie, Scott and Company of Chicago,
one of the large firms that supports
the institution. Mr.. Scott booked the
place over and was pleased with it
and the work 1t is doing. The needs
OF the institution were pointed out by
DIR. Brown.
Shortly after Mr. Scotts return to
Chicago he wrote the superintendent
informing him that means fer provid-
ing the improvements had been de
vised. DR. Brown will leave Saturday
for Chicago, where he will take a part
in the selection Of plans. When the
electric lighting plant is installed, it
is proposed to purchase a motion pic
tire machine, with which a program
will be given once each week
The valmora institution now Is
housing 46 patients and is full to
capacity, according to DR.. Brown. It
Is maintained by several Chicago firms
for the exclusive use of their EN-

Raton's new Country club came into
existence as an established institution
last Wednesday evening when the
prime movers in the new enterprise
met in the office of M. G. Smigelow
and perfected an organization, says
the Ration Range. Mr.. Smigelow was
elected president and an energetic
executive committee appointed to-
formulate and carry into effect plans
for the club. 1t was announced at the
meeting that five-year lease had
been signed for the use of an 8O-acre
Letton tract lying to the south Of the
Miners hospital and east of the Cath
olic cemetery Examination Of this
tract shows an ideal location for Tie
nine-hole golf course which viii be
laid out under the personal super.
vision Of the superintendent of the
Trinidad Country club, Mr.. Hugh
Montgomery, who is in Ration this
HCOh Ou GuiS pdICtCuldT business. Inc
general plans of the club include not
only first class golf course but the
erection next spring of a club house
and the laying out of tennis courts
For the present attention will be given
to the golf course which, according to
Mr. Montgomery, will be one of the
finest because of its natural adapta-
bility and also because of its proxim-
ity to the city. The first tee will be
located Just south or the Miners hos.
pital, a few feet beyond the end Of
the cement walk, thus providing tho
unusual convenience of walk to the
very entrance of the course. When
the golfer completes his nine holes
he will have covered a distance ap-
proximately two miles, divided into
nine links ranging in length from 200
to 800 yards. The club will start out
with an enrolment of about 50 mem

Albuquerque, Nov g3-Colonel D.
X b. Sellers went out on the trail
yesterday to look for the sign posting
truck of the Automobile club of south
ern California, the arrival of which

fore part of the week He found it.
The truck was in trouble not far from
Los Lunas. Colonel Sellers straight
ened out the trouble and the arrival
is expected here tomorrow.
Travelling inf. T. storts' automo-
bile the colonel first went to Islera to
seek tidings Of the truck. There was
no word there, and the car went on TO
Peralta, where no more Information
was obtained The ear proceeded to
Los Lunas and there Colonel Sellers
was informed that the truck had left
Thursday noon to go to Isleta--erght
miles distant
Then the colonel went scouting in
earnest and at O'Clock he found the
truck on the wrong road three miles
out from Los Lunas. 1t wals up a sand
hill about as high as the Bartlett
building and about as solid as a Pile
Of flour The sign posting party had
spent 23 hours going 100 feet-and in
the wrong direction at that The
colonel showed the sign posters how
to get out of the hole they were in.
The colonel said that they probably
turned and will reach Isleta today.
From here they are expected to go to
Los Lunas bridge and sign the route
from there.
They were impelled to detour from
their original route at the Los Lunas
bridge because the structure Is not
heavy enough for the truck. and so

He was born of poor parents in

had direct from William Morris, Ber-

compilation Of the laws and regula-
tions on the subject recently enacted
in 50 states.
This compilation Of laws emphasizes
again the frequently made observa-
ton that the average American has
an abiding confidence in the possible
value Of statute law. It also suggests
that the laws relating to the manu-
facture, sale and uss Of poisons, while
numerous, are not effectual largely
because Of the inability or unwilling
ness of the proper authorities to en-
force them.
Much Of the difficulty encountered
in enforcing laws relating to poisons
is due to the fact that we have as
vet no popularity acceptable definition
for a poison individuals generally
feel that they understand what is
meant by "a poison" but efforts 10
satisfactorily limit this meaning have
signally failed. This is so largely be-
cause of the fact that by far the
great amount Of the material that
may be classed as poisonous is seldom
recognized as being menace to hu-
man life.
Considerable interest is evidenced
at the present time in discussions on
the need for greater uniformity in
laws relating to the manufacture, sale
and use Of poisons or Of articles that
may contain poisons, and the desira-
bility of having the various state laws
conform in their general requirements,
at least, to the corresponding require
ments Of federal laws.
It has been pointed out that the
several state food and drug laws while
following the same pattern usually
differ TO some extent and these diff
ferences particularly the paragraphs
relating to the labelling Of prepara'
tions have come to be constant an
noyance to the manufacturer the job
Der, and the retailer.=-The iol5ber and
the retailer are more directly inter
sted as the manufacturer having
labeled his products in accordance
with the federal law may ship them
into any state regardless of the spec
ial requirements of the state law, thus
making the other branches of the
trade liable In the event that the
goods do not comply to the provisions
of the local requirements.
Greater uniformity is also desired
in connection with the laws and regu
J lations designed to restrict the salt
, and use of poisons, and manufacturer
and dealers doing an Interstate bust
ness are atsthe present time agitatini
for the enactment Of a national poisol
law which would serve to provide
regulations for interstate traffic AM
would also tend to arouse renewed
interest in the nature and object o
local laws and would possibly lead t
their more efficient enforcement
