\o1cs of tho Meeting.

Inside baseball is the real game these days.
 Tho merger proposition is still in ,hc minds of the directors and it will l, e for q long while yet.
 IInch Mrl<innon feels sure that he is running no ghost proposition. Yet. he admits that his league may bc used as q snost.
 Clyde Waters, catcher, and Joe Pope, :shortstop, of the New Haven ball club, kept the scribes company during the league meeting.
 Had the New England league been less haSty in holding it's annual meet ing, plans for the merger would have been helped greatly.
 Northampton can be invaded by thc Sinks, regardless of any silent agreement with the Twin-State. The Eastern association recognizes no 'aGrecmcnt' with the Twin State league.
 Manager Jack Teller of Pittsfield insisted that ball clubs should have the '@uppol't' of newspapers. but not the "control." In other words. he wants baseball interests to be abso- lutcly independent. What do you mean Bro Zeller?
 If Bill Scihski decides to take a chance on Northampton he will be up against it. Thc TWin-Statc league has assurances from tho Feds that it will protect Twin State territory. ScinSki in Northampton means a fight. The Feds threaten to drive him out of that town.
 Hugh Mckinnon and Jim O'Rourke disagree on where the option is for the ball grounds :n Waterbury. Hugh claims ho can get it. Jim says or eanized ball will nave the first chance. Neither has an option, though each is confident he can beat the other fellow ito it." Says Hughie, Let O'Rourkc get it if he can.'

RETIREMENT PAY FOR
 LIFE SAVERS URGED
Report Of SeIv,Cc Shows he1 Worked Alone in l,476 Disasters.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Thcrc were 1,476 disasters on the waters of the United States during the last fiscal year in which the lifo saving scrviCc worked alone, according to it's re- port today to congress. The vessels involved carried 5,295 persons and the property was valued at S2,542,- 9S5. In 323 other instances the scr vice worked in conjunction with the revenue cutter service or other agen- cics and took part in the rescue of 2.691 persons from vessels valued at S10,641,655.
 The years record, the report dc Clares. was made 'in the face of an unfortunate situation, a deteriorated life saving service.' It again urges upon congress the need for legisla- ton to provide for retirement pay for life savers.
 To Impair Service.
 "It should be stated,' says the report. that if the present state of affairs is permitted much longer to go unreme edied it is bound seriously to impair the usefulness of the ser into disrepute.
 Io put tIS upOIl d proper basis of efficiency, it Is ob- viously necessary to provide for the retirement of the veterans still in the service and for filling their places, as well as the places now occupied by substitutes, with the best type of waterman to be found on the coasts"
 Approves Pending Bill.
 The report approves the bill pend ing in congress to consolidate the revenue cutter and life saving scr- vices into a coast guard.
 Tt is inconceivable," 1t says, that congress will allow the service to run down and lose its efficiency for want of legislation that alone will rehabilitate and preserve it."
 Summary of Work.
 In general summary of it's forty three years of existence the service is shown to have figured in giving assistance to 2S121 vessels, valued with their cargoes at S355, 401 ,0S4. of which property valued at $2S3- 071,237 was saved On these yes sells were 17S.741 persons and only 1 1,455 lives were lost, a less number it is pointed out, than perished on the Titanic.

Deputy Chief of Massachusetts State Police Says Only Such Movies
 May Be Shown OH Sunday

Boston. Jan. 19.-Only such pie lures as would satisfy a New Eng land conscience" may be shown in moving picture houses in this state on Sunday, Deputy Chief George C. Neal of the state police. who is the official censor, said yesterday.
 The manager Of d film exchange had complained that the story of Christ had been ruled our by the censor for Sunday exhibition because it represented a crucifixtion in one of the scenes. Tt was too cruel" the censor thought. Scenes from the life of Abraham Lincoln were barred. the manager said, because the censor thought that battle scenes were too strong for the Sa bbath.
 These pictures were sanctioned for use during the week. On Sun day the state police have forbidden the exhibition of films showing dane ing, new or old: gambling. crime, rough play, cruelty to human beings or animals, or the use Of firearms.

CROSBY CRABS OVER
 DEFEAT OF ITS CLUB
Waterbury Newspaper Says Referee Was Biased and Used Bad Judge
 mcnt in Removing Players.

Waterbury did not take kindly to the A No. 1 trimming given the Crosby High school basketball five by the local High school Saturday night. This is what the Waterbury Republican has to remark about it:
 '"The contest had hardly started when Harold Davis. one of the clev- crest men on the Crosby team, was struck by one of his opponents and hurled to the floor. Davis, alth ourh considered one of the most evenly tempered men of the local squad, struck back at his aggressor for which he was put out of the match. Referee Schovator's iudgme ent seemed strangely, or rather un- strangely biased.
 'The feature of the battle came not as an unusually clever play but rather as a pugilistic sensation. Tut hill, center for the New Britain five, one of the oldest and heaviest high school players in the state, made a hurl at Beers, the Crosby center, who returned the blow. The referee was on the scene of the assault in a minute and contrary to all bask etball ethics and rules, the Crosby man was expelled from the game. This, of course, was unendurable Capt. George Taylor of the local quintet called his men together and left the gymnasium. This action naturally produced dismay among the New Britain section and it was not until their coach suggested the propriety of referring to some precedent that a compromise was arranged. Instead of removing the New Britain center. Tuthill, the referee allowed Beers to return to the game and called a foul on both men"

WARNER XS. M\HONEI.
Managers Argue Over Which Is Bet
 ter Man.

Dan Noonan, owner of the Law renee and Havcrhill clubs of the New England league, says that Lawrence is the best club in the league right now. He also says that II. Eugene McCann made him an offer for a pitcher, presumably Harry Thomp- son. McCann says he didn't. Noonan also cracks up Jake Warner as a better player than Larry Mahoncy. McCann says Mahoney is the best minor league second sacller in the business The figures bear out his contention, at least in part. Mahoney hit for .2S3. Warner for .252. Maho- ncy, in 119 games at second and short ticlded for .935. Warner, in 11S games hclded for .956. Mahoney accepted 5S7 chances out of pos siblc CPS. Warner had 631 chances and accepted eos of these. Mahoneys batting average, however, is 31 points better than Warmers.

ECZEMA |S DRIED RIGHT
 UP WITH SULPHUR
Use like cold cream to subdue irritation and clear
 the skin.

Any breaking out or irritation on the face, arms, legs and body when accom- panied by itching, or when the skin is dry and feverish, can be readily over come by applying a little bold sulphur, says noted derrnatologist~
 He informs us that bold -sulp phur in stantly allays tho angry itching and irritation and soothcs and heals the Eczema right up leaving the skin clear and smooth. Bold sulphur has occupied a secure position for many years in the treatment of cutancous disorders be- cause of it's parasite-destroying prop crty. Nothing has ever been found to take it's place in treating the irritable and inflammatory skin affections While not always establishing permanent cure 1t never fails to subdue the itching irri- tation and drive the Eczema away and 1t is often years later before any erup- tion again appears.
 Those troubled should obtain from any druggist an ounce of bold sulphur, which is applied to the affected parts in the same manner as an ordinary cold cream. It isn't unpleasant and the prompt relief afforded, particularly in itching Eczema, proves very welcome.

WHY CHILLY WEATHER
 BRINGS RHEUMATISM
says Skin Pores Arc Closed and Uric Acid Remains in
 Blood.

Rheumatism is no respecter of age, sex, color or rank. If not the most dangerous of human afflictions 1t is one of the most painful Those sub feet to rheumatism should cat less meat, dress as warmly as possible, avoid any undue exposure andS above all. drink lots of pure water.
 Rheumatism is caused by uric acid which is generated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood. IL is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in tho urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chil- Iy, cold weather the skin pores are closed. thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accommodating and circulating through the system. eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness. soreness and pain called rheumatism
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put tablespoon- full in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for "ceh' IiiS lS Sdlu Ao ellillld'e uflC acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus riddng the blood of these impurities.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with li- thia and is used with excellent re- suits by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant effervescent lithia- water drink which overcomes uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as well.
