Hand to Hit an Aeropiane.

When | was in Europe recently and
at the front with the French armies
saw several engagements between bat
teries of antiaircraft guns and aero
planes which were flying over, at
tempting to locate the positions of the
French batteries.
At one time saw Twenty-Five shells
break In succession about a German
Taube. There were twenty-nine
wreaths of smoke in the air all at
once, for the firing was so quick that
the first wreath had not disappeared
when the last wreath was formed. The
aviator was untouched. He was driven
back with his machine, but he received
absolutely no injury.
II is one Of the marvels Of the sol
der today that 1t is so difficult to hit
an aeroplane and 1t is another marvel
that II is so difficult for an operator In
an aeroplane to hit any specific OBJ
iect with q dropping bomb. These
problems OF craftsmanship, both OF
batteries firing at aeroplanes and aero
planes dropping bombs, are the sub
iects of deep study by army officers
the world over. They hope to find
means to improve the Workmanship.

WOMEN DECIDE TO ACT
Family Pocketbooks Are Favored by
Local Concern.

Women about the city have found
that there is one concern which needs
no investigating as concerns their re-
tail prices to the trade-they are
strictly in accordance with the investi-
cations which are now being made as
to the high living costs, and advice is
being given that the firm of s. B. Thing
& Co.. Inc, whose store is located at
1853 Main street, are selling shoes to
their customers that were purchased
six months and more ago and at the
old prices.
The Shoe Hustlers figure a small
ratio OF profit All the time, and the
fact that they make hundreds of sales
at lesser profits than the other fellow
naturally comes back to the better
ment Of the family >pocketbook.
Advice, given to trade with these
people is we'll worth consideration
that is. If people want more for their
money.-Ad-r.

duct this type Of lottery without in
reference from the police.
The latter, however, have been

'T've heard a whole lot about $780,
600 infields." said Sherwood r. Magee,
who toured the west with the ALMA
tional ball club, "but l don't believe l
ever saw one better than quartet l
played against this year.
You will be surprised when tell
the names of the infielders that pick
as the best have ever seen.
"They are no other than the four fell
lows who played on the All-Amerlcan
teams inner Gordon on the trip to the
coast. This is the team that Ban John
son said didn't fairly represent the
strength of bis league.
1.-THE infield was composed of Pipp
Of the Yanks. at first base; Mullen of
the same team at second; Shanks at
short and Schang of the Athletics, at
third. The oldest thing about it is
that Pipp was the only one of the four
playing his regular position. Mullen
is a substitute first baseman. Shanks
is an outfielder, and Schang is a
catcher"

In Canada the game of curling has
been known since 1907 and is today
played from the Atlantic to the Pa

to journey 5000 miles to Winnipeg. the
curriers' paradise. to attend the mon

In the early days Of the Scottish
settlers in the west men curled with
wooden blocks instead Of stones.
These blocks were soaked in water for
months and then allowed to freeze.
1t is said that these blocks slid over
the ice with as great velocity as the
granite stones Of the present day. In
many sections Of Canada iron" stones

they are less affected by weather
changes and that they run truer than
stone.

Washington Ike. Griffith.

Washington never has won a pen
nant in major league baseball. though
this city has been identified with the
big league since in the early eighties.
writes j. Ed Grille in the Washington
Star. In fact, not until 1912 did Wash
ington ever have a ball team finish sec
ond. and, what is more. prior to that
time no Washington team ever finished
higher than sixth. At no time in the
history Of the game in the city has
there been as capable ball club repre-
senting the national capital as has
been here during the last four years un.
der the Griffith regime. Whether Grif-
fifth has been responsible for this is not
argued. but the fact remains that
Washington has been on the baseball
map only since he has bee1 in charge.
