HEALTH HINTS

We spend one-third of our life in
bed. Therefore bedrooms are import
ant as regards health.
There is no harm in night air If it
be fresh air. Therefore the import
ant thing about bedroom, other than
that 1t contain bed, is ventilation.
The most healthful curtain arrange
ment FOR bedroom Is short cur
tain on tho lower half Of tho window:
In this way windows can be opened
top or bottom with no dusty curtains
Tapping about in the breeze. Never
have double curtains. They keep out
air and hold quantities OF dust.
Keep bedrooms walls free from pic
lures so that they can be brushed
down frequently. Have few rugs. The
floors should be painted or stained SO
that they can be easily kept clean.
On no account allow soiled clothing
to remain in the bedroom from .one
washday to another. Not even in a
covered container.
Leave bedroom windows wide open
during the part of the day that the
sun strikes them. The more fresh air
and sunshine during the day the
healthier 1t will be at night

SOME REASONS WHY THE CUBS

The local prexy says the meeting is
being held merely because the char
ter of the club demands it and only
routine matters will be considered.
That seems TO dispose of the ru-
NOR that a successor to Joe Tinker
would be considered or that Joe
would be given a pilots license for
another season. Joe is still away
duck hunting and says he will not
return until cold weather forces the
game fowl south for the winter.
In all discussions anent the man.
agement Joe seems the least con-
cerned, which is fair indication
that he has some kind of assurance
of being continued on the job.
The principal reason Joe did not
make a better finish with the 1915
Cubs crops out in the official aver
ages of the attacking strength of the
National league teams, issued by
Sec'y Heydler. Cy Williams is the
tOp CuD DaCC6P, anu W uaQ pound
ing mark of .279. Not one member
of the Cub encourage was in the 800
class, and the average for the COM
bination was .239, superior only to
Boston.
Zimmerman hit .286, but Heinie
was not a Cub at the close of the
season. Larry Doyle batted .278.
Other averages: Mann, PIP; Yerkes,
1858; Flack, .258; Kelly, .254; Safer,
.253; Knabe, PA; MoIlwitz, 236;
Zeider, .235; Wilson, .227; Hunter,
PIG; Workman, POI; Hendrix, 200,
and the pitchers down the line to
Gene Packard, who guarded the rear
with a percentage of 100.
Williams had an even dozen home
~uns in his figures, which tied with
e.. Eve Robertson Of the Giants for

sacrifice hitters, advancing man 81
times through his own demise. The
Cubs lead in home runs with 49,, TAX
ing advantage of the short right
field fence before the screen was
raised.
As baserunners the Cubs took the
dust of every other team in the cir
cult, a total of 1873 steals emitting
them to eighth place. %
Hal Chase (not the kind of a man
wanted in the American league, ac-
cOrding to Ban JOhnsOn) topped all
clouters in the old major with mark
of .339. Hal made 1874 hits for 249
bases and stole % bases, proving he
had lost neither his eye nor speed
during a sojourn among the Feds.
Mccarthy, Giant catcher, had the
same average as Chase, but played
in half as many games. Jake Dau-
bert was third with .S16 in 127
games.
The Giants made the most runs,
597, and also led the, basestealers
with 2O6. Brooklyn was the best hit
ting team with a percentage of PSI.
When the fielding averages are Of
ficiaIIy compiled more reasons for
the lowly showing of the Cubs will
develop. The failure of the pinch hit
was disastrous, but even this handi-
cap might have been partially over
come if there, had not been a porous
spot in the center of the infieId dur
ing the greater part of the season.
The addition of Doyle and Workman
changed matters there.
Wortman's batting average is moth
ing to brag of, but the young fellow
was going a trife better when the
season closed, indicating he is not of
the class that comes to the big league
with a healthy stick, then has his
hits extracted when the enemy pitch
ers locate his weakness.
