PlainVille News PLAN TO INTERFERE
 IN SUNDAYS GAME 'Citizcns' Committce'' Intends to
 Get After New Britain Team. NO ADMISSION CHARGE AT GATE
Dewey Says He Has Received No
 Complaint and Police Actor Strung Dying at Hospital.

While leaders of the forces oppos- l ing Sunday baseball of q commercial ized character were reticent this
 morning when approached concerning
 their plans to prevent Owner Will
 liam Scinski of the New Britain team from giving an exhibition at Electric 1 field tomorrow afternoon, he having
 announced yesterday that the Pitts
 field team will play here, it was
 learned from authoritative sources that steps will be taken to stop the playing of the game and bring about the arrest of members of the team unless they heed the warning recent ly given them by Rev. F. l.. Grant, pastor of the Congregational church. Although MT. Grant is now out of town spending a part of his vacation at q Congregational conference held on Shoal Island. other members of the citizens committee appointed two years ago and who prevented J. J. Murphy from having Sunday games, are apparently determined to keep the Skis from staging the exhibition an- nounced for tomorrow. One of the leaders said this morning that the matter had been taken up with the
 
 play will bring about the arrest of the principals.
 The local authoriti do not ap- pear to be in sympathy with the op- position ana while they would. of course, havs to act on any complaint that might be presented, 1t is con- sidered doubtful if they will try to stop the game. Should complaints ho lad rr{t iS ho al they will issue warrants for the arr rest of the players after the game Is finished. Prosecutor M. A. Norton said this morning that he had not heard directly from the opposition and could do nothing anyway until there is a violation of the law. Police officers questioned by a Herald man also said that nothing had been said to them
 Two years ago County Sheriff Dew ey sent a small army of his men here to stop the New Britain team from playing but since that time 1t has been said that he has not been en- thusiastic about repeating the ex- perience because the usual fees were not given to the deputies. When com municated with by phone this morn-
  received no requests from the local opposition. He was not inclined, however, to state what action he would take should complaint be sent to him before tomorrow.
 Except for announcing that game will be played tomorrow afternoon, l Manager Scinski made no statements concerning what measures he will adopt to prevent interference by the local opposition but there was re- port in circulation that no admission will be charged at the gate, the management deriving whatever reve- nue 1t receives from a collection to be taken up among the fans. Many believe that such action would give the teams the same status as amateur hines which the state law allows to play on Sundays with the permits sion of the selectmen.
 As there are several such contests given here on Sundays there Is question as to whether tomorrow's game can be legally stopped if there

Makinu the Flat Sachet.


The tiny fat sachets that are placed
in the folds of a blouse or underwear
in a suit case must be of necessity
small. Here, then, comes small piece
of ribbon to the rescue. A pad of cot
ton batting should be cut and Sprinkled
with sachet. There should be a coarse
muslin or batiste covering made for it.
Over this sew the ribbon case, first
basting the raw edges together on the
right side. A dainty binding of mar
row ribbon can be added to give a neat
finish. Outline the four edges with this
and finish the joined ribbon with a
necktie bow or full rosette of ribbon.

Gather each edge and then sew the
gathered part around a crocheted ring
about one inch in diameter. Do the
same with the other edge. leaving the
short ends of the ribbon Open They
of course. must be hemmed for the
sake of neatness. Place two or three
bolts of ribboe with the ends coming
out through each ring and the opening
between the hemmed ends This little
case is always appreciated by women.

Tow Revolver.

A revolver which has been designed
for the nervous woman to carry in her
vanity bag is probably the smallest
weapon of it's kind in the world From
the tip of the hammer to end of the
barrel it measures about three inches
and it fires a steel bullet about twice
the size Of a pins head. The weapon
which is the latest production of a
leading gunmaker, is beautifully made
with mother-o'-pearl mountings.

II is not so important what you eat.
The great bane of the American peo-
pie is overeating. Everybody comedies
that we eat too much meat, and many
physicians contend that 1t is one of
the principal causes of the unduly high
death rate among persons over 40
years of age. The danger to the body
is in the protein, or albumen, which
is taken in through the stomach. The
sugars and fats are fully digested and
assimilated. The body doesn't use the
excess OF protein and gets rid OF 1t
through the kidneys. One of the
products of the chemical change of
the protein foods is uric acid and other
poisonous and irritating substances
which gradually and surely sap vital
ity.
The general impression is that the
more costly food is the better it is.
This is an error. The coarser the
food. the better for the stomach no less
than for the pocket Weight for

gradually coming to be recognized as
a great truth, that wisdom in regard
to our habits of eating would make us
both healthier and wealthier; and

will make this a matter of common
