RAIL- TEAM REoRoANIzEs.

The Hancock Point baseball club has
been recognized, and is now ready to ar
range playing dates with any OF the
strictly amateur teams in Hancock coun-
ty. Games are especially wanted for the
Fourth OF July and Saturday afternoons
at Hancock Point. Would arrange few
games away from home during July and
August, or on any Saturday during June
or September.
The Hancock Point team has added
greatly to it's playing strength. and is
already putting up snappy game in
practice.
The summer colony at Hancock Point is
greatly interested in the baseball team,
and tear putting up fairly good
article of baseball is bound to be well
patronized. II the efforts that are being
made by the men who are getting the
team together are to count for any
thing, they must have the support
of the public at the Point, and II the team
turns out as we'll as it promises, 1t will
certainly deserve support.
The team has been more or less ham

material, but this season in Colewell and
Partridge, they have two good men, who,
with the kind OF support which they
should get, should win consistently.
Coleweli especially has plenty OF steam,
good curves, is cool as an iceberg, q good
batter and fast on the bases. Partridge
hasn't had ss much experience Is Cole
well, but with any kind Of support shoulc
come along nicely.
GalIison will be behind the bat as
usual, it is expected. He is steady
player, nard worker. sure on fouls in
his territory, pretty good batter, and
when his arm is right it is just as well not
to take too many liberties on the bases.
r. Crsbtree, on first base, put up a
mighty good game Of ball last season, and
viii do the same this summer. There
seems to be some doubt as to A. <. Crab
trees playing second again this year, but
il he can be induced to play he will Ger
tainly hold down second in grand shape.
Hall, as shortstop, is in new position,
but he seems to DIT in well in practice. aud
there no doubt will make good there. He

one will go long way before finding a
man who can work a pitcher any harder
than he can.
Nickerson, captain Of the team, is q new
man; he is real player good third

worry the coolest battery in the business.
The outdeld will be /. Johnston,

changes in the lineup as the team comes
along. and before the time for the first
game.

How to Tell When Tire Is overinflated

How to Tell When Tire Is 0verinflated.
Time was when every tire manufacturer
warned all and sundry to initiate their tires
10 high degree of pressure, and more prob
ably than not this was due to the fact that
in those days all pumping was done by hand
and with very inefficient implements into
the bargain.
The correct thing to do nowadays, of
course, is to consult standard table Of re
qusite pressures, according to the size of
tire and the load to be carried, and to use
this in conjunction with reliable gauge
Put there is also rough and ready method
which is by no means indeterminate if no
pressure gauge is handy, and that is to take
the car out onto dry road which is in a bad
state Of repair and full of holes. Preferably
there should be no passengers on the rear
seats. If the driving wheels are pumped up
too hard, the driver will experience con
slant sensation of incipient skidding, and
though he may not actually side slip he will
not find the car by any means easy to steer.
This is evidence that the tires are so hard
that they are humping over obstacles instead
of absorbing them without leaving the
ground.

Clean Storage for Lubricants.

Cans containing oil or grease should inva-
rably be kept covered. An uncovered can
of heavy transmission oil was the means Of
putting the owner of n-automobie to sew

have been avoided if the receptacle contain.
against the introduction of foreign sub
stance. The ear was new one and having
been used for month or two the chauffeur
decided to replenish the lubricant in the
transmission case. To accomplish this n
plate was removed from the top Of the case
and heavy oil was poured in a day or two
later at time when the ear was being driv-
en- rapidly through the street, there was
sudden crash somewhere in the cars interior

Under Initiation.

differentiation is source of many grave
ills. Something more than mere case and
tube is necessary to support the weight of II
car In fact the very purpose of the pneu-
matte tire is to place This burden on the air
column in the tube. The tube and case are
designed merely to be air containers, and if
the proper air pressure is not maintained the
burden falls on material not equal TO carry
ing it. Loosenng of the tread, fabric sepa-
ration and breaking of the threads result
In many instances the heat produced by the
working of the air and the chatting of the
tube against the casing actually burns the
fabric and robs it Of its life. A not less Sc
rious consequence of under-inflation is rim
cutting
There is little likelihood of tires being over.
inflated A good rule TO follow is to so round
up your tires that with full load they stand
without depression on a level floor Varia-
tions in temperature affect the pressure 80

Running in Ruts.

Among the less common but equally Sc
rious abuses are running in deep ruts, on
muddy and icy roads running in car tracks
which breaks the fabric all around the line
of contact; locking the brakes so as to skid
or slide the wheels, which quickly grinds off
the tread, and if persisted in ruins the cas-.
ing beyond repair. In this category also fall
those injuries caused by misapplication of
the tire to the rim. Perhaps the very worst
of these is pinching the tube, which not only
allows the tube to blow out, but not infre
quently blows the easing over the rim and
leads the owner to believe that it is not the
proper size. As matter of fact, the tire or
its manufacturer is charged with multitude
of troubles which originate solely in the in
attention or lack of information Of the tire
user It is an actual fact that very few tires
as put out today by the leading manufac
mrers are faulty So rigid is the system Of
inspecting which they undergo at every stage
of their makeup that it is hardly possible
for even latent defect to escape discovery
and correction

Taking Out a Body Scar.

There IS hardly anything more annoying
for one who takes pride in the general APP
pearance of his car than to discover a deep
iy-seated scratch on the body work. This
happened to me after attending a race meet
ing last month Usually to hand the thing
over to the builder would be the best thing
TO do, but here is what ! did. The scratch
was first soaked in water nearly at boiling
spot. or otherwise white patch would have
resulted While the wood was warm mix
ture consisting of beeswax ANDERSEN was run
into the scar. The next morning this was
rubbed over with very fine powdered pumice
stone and water, after which it was given
the coat of varnish Color to match the paint
or thin coat of paint followed by varnish
could have been used

mechanism, followed by its even more sud
den stoppage. Without attempting to pro
coed further under his own power the chauf-
feur was towed to the garage. II was found
that two of the gears were entirely destroyed.
the cause Of which was a steel washer which
was so different from anything used in the
construction Of the car as to make sure it
had got into the transmission case when the
lubricant was poured in. The can contain
ing the oil was then examined and in the
bottom of it were found two more scraps of
iron which, through carelessness, accident
or design, had found their way there. While
il is not always practical to strain the lubri-
cant while introducing it into the working
parts of Il motor car, it is possible to use SUI
ficient precaution to prevent foreign sub
stances as large as a washer or nut from be
ing carried in with it, and owners should in
sist on precautions, the neglect of which may
involve large outlay.

ANCIENT HOUSE OF WORSHIP
Church New Hanover County,
North Carolina, One Of the Coun-
try's landmarks.

One Of the oldest historical land
marks in New Hanover county, North
Carolina, and among the oldest in
the country is St Philips church. To-
Gated 10 miles below Wilmington on
the historic Cape Fear river 1t was
built by the settlers in 1740. It was
then. and for a long time afterward.
the only dedicated house of worship
in the first settlement in North Caro-
Sna. Stirring scenes of the Revolu-
tionary war centered around this old
church, the English troops at one
time riddling the walls Of the build
ing with shot and shell while the col.
onists were at worship within. A Lon.
don magazine of 1871 relates that a
storm occurred in North Carolina
which began on Monday, December
20. and continued until Friday. Dur
ing this storm many houses were
blown ashore. This storm forced open
q new channel at the mouth of the
Cape Fear eighteen feet deep and
nearly half a mile wide.

The problem of supplying range

them thoroughly next morning and
spread them in halfinch layers in

water twice daily. In from three to
six days the oats will be ready for
feeding. For baby chicks feed when

BAD MANNERS IN SOME SHOPS
Story Concerning the Amusing su-
perciIiousness Of Saleswomen In
Big Establishments.

An amusing discussion took place
the other day in the dressing room
of a fashionable restaurant. Three
women we're laughing over the gran
deur of the saleswomen in a certain
Walnut street shop. The shop was
offering reduced rates. and one of
them sauntered in from curiosity
what woman can resist looking over
what may prove to be a bargain? The
saleswoman IN charge seemed quite
Indifferent. and upon Mrs. X making
some critical remark about a simple
little gown marked down to $3.50.
she raised her penciled eyebrows and
looked pityingly at the customer. as
though sizing her up according to the
gown value. oh" she drawled. but
that, you know. you would only find
ON an expensive gown-a $50 gowu!"
Mrs. X mimlcked the grande maniere
of the saleswoman quite out of all pro-
portion with her evident regard for q
$50 gown. and her companions laughed
heartily.-Kansas City Star.
