Mcdonald was st-own out as thrd on Clark's fielder's choice Ellis ai. to left field for two bases, scoring Coombs. Webb was an easy out. Mcdonald walked again in the third. but was left and Caton promenaded in the fourth.

VOLS PLAYING GOOD

The Nashville Vols continued their spurt, taking six of the seven games they played. Ellam's men are showing great form and the increased effective ness of the pitchers is said to be the cause of the recent showing of the champions.
 The Lookouts continue to lose. Kid Elberfeld's team won only two games during the week, losing five. The Look outs have now been displaced in the first division, the Vols passing them during the past week.
 Memphis played better ball during the week, winning four and losing three, but their position was not ma terially aided. The Little Rock Trav- elers had another bad week, losing five and winning only twice. Tincup ap- pears to be the only Little Rock pitcher ah1a to scora a win

GULLS FIGHT HARD

Mobiles play during the week was featured again by some scrappy con- tests. On Saturday, the Gulls dropped doubleheader to the Crackers. but bat tied Charley Franks men IA innings before they were finally humbled. The Gulls won once and lost four.
 The present week will bring another crucial series. The New Orleans reli- cans move over to Atlanta to start fve-game series with Charley Franks men in fight which will probably de- eide the holder of second place. The Barons meet the Mobile Gulls in four games.
 Nashville and Chattanooga also clash A few wins will place the Lookouts back in four place. Double headers will be played in Birmingham, Atlanta, Lit tie Rock and Nashville on Wednesday, July 4.

Birmingham has improved wonder fully of late, and local sportsmen, as well as Johnny Dobbs and A. J.. Heinemann said today that they would have to be reckoned with dur ing the next three weeks, as they seemed to be going at top form right now and would evidently pass out New Orleans and Atlanta before next Saturday night.
 FIELDING WAS GREAT
 Bailey and Ponder engaged in a pitching duel, both allowing six hits. However, Bailey walked five men to the four he struck out. while Ponder walked but one and struck out three. Sensational fielding behind both of the pitchers cut off sure hits on many occasions and brought the crowds ill the stands to their feet.
 Caton, although he made on error, took part in nine plays and acquitted himself admirably. Johnston grabbed some senSallondl oueS at iHse oaeo that seemed wild heaves and retired the runners every time. while Barbare for New Orleans. started the crowd yelling when he speared Webb's line drive in the fourth that was labelled two bases.
 Bob Higgins was the batting star of the New Orleans, getting four hits out of as many times at bat Ponder led with the stick for the Barons, get ting two singles, but he was left both

ARE YOU WORTHY OF TRUST7
Let Us First Be Sure That We Deserve
Confidence Before We Demand
It, Urges Writer.

People resent an insinuation that
they are not to be trusted, In general,
or with a particular duty. Do we not
look within in impartial judgment to
see whether we really merit trust ?
Are we sufficiently competent to I'M
dertake the task in question? Are
we wise enough to inform ourselves of
matters wherein we find ourselves ig-
norant? Are we clear-sighted enough
to estimate rightly men and affairs ?
Are we giving single-hearted service
to our fellow man?
Let us first be worthy Of trust be-
fore we demand 1t, says q writer in
the Milwaukee Journal. It is q poor
satisfaction to gain trust to which we
know ourselves not entitled. Let our
first effort to be to deserve trust; then
whether it is bestowed On us or not
will be Of second consideration. Mac
donald said: ITO be trusted is great
er compliment than to be loved" Yet
trust is the foundation of love. 1t is
we'll to be slow in bestOwing trust.
Let time prove its worth. Once you
find the man whom you may implicitly
trust, treasure him closely. There Is
an old saying, "Eat peck Of salt with
a man before you trust him."

CITY KEEPS PENN's PROMISE
Philadelphia Still Maintains Camping
Grounds for Indians II They Care
to Visit Metropolis.

Historical Philadelphia we all know,
or should know, we'll, but there are
very few who have ever heard of some
Of the old, ut-of-the-ordinary things
that go to form quaint Philadelphia.
One scarcely connects Indians with
the city nowadays, and yet at this
present time If tribe Of Indians
should care to visit Philadelphia they
would find two camping grounds await
ing them in the very heart of the city.
One lies between Broad and Juniper
streets, in the rear of the Ritz-CarltOn
Hotel, while the other one is down on
Second street. Years ago, when Penn
made his treaty with the Indians, he
promised them that a place would be
kept for them and their descendants
forever, where they could camp when
they came to Philadelphia and while
these plots of ground are not large,
yet they still stand there in fulhllment
of PENIS promise.
The old shot tower down on Second
street belongs, too, to Quaint Philadel-
phia. 1t dates back to the early days
of the republic. In those days there
were none of our up-to-date methods
for making shot round, and the method
then employed was to drop the melted
metal from height into water, thus
forming 1t into round balls or shot.

Music Language Of Soul.

The meaning of music goes deep. 1t
Is the universal language of the soul.
Where speech fails, song is only be-
ginning. Music can make mems hearts
as steel in the face Of battle, when
thousands are to be stricken down
and trampled into the earth, or it can
melt these same hearts to tender love
and make them tremble at sweet
hearts whisper. Music can cleanse
the soul for worship, or it can de-
prave for the vilest orgies. 1t uplifts,
and it debases; it inspires to the high,
the sweet, the true, and 1t deadens to
the gross and low, the vicious and the
heartless. Freedom and love and fidel-
ity and praise-words that illumine all
language-would be meaningless and
dead but for the spirit instilled into
them by song.-Exchange.

HOW SCOUTS CAN HELP NATION.

Offer your services to some gardener
as a patrol. He will be glad to pay
you for your labor. Make his crop
the best in your neighborhood. Show
the world that boy scouts can rise to
any emergency. No cutters need ap.
ply.
Plant a garden at home. No matter
how small the space. Forego the flow
err garden this season. Plant vege-
tables. If you have no garden use a
window box. You will be delighted
with the results, no matter how small
the crop. Do it now.
Offer your services to your teacher
to help in securing the necessary in
formation to establish school and
home gardens. Don't be Stacker
Ask your city officials to organize to
help conserve the food supply of our
country. Have them offer vacant
space for cultivation. Show your pa
triotism. Arouse theirs.

Conducted by National Council Of the
Boy Scouts Of America.)
PLAN TWO MILLION GARDENS

Two million home gardens, cultivat-
Scouts of America, are going to prove
invaluable to the United States during
the war period and help to end the high
price Of food here, according to o. n.
Benson of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Mr.. Benson, who is in charge Of the
governments agricultural extension
work, recently conferred with scout off,
Gals of the Boy Scouts of America at
their headquarters, in New York, on
the plans for mobilizing the 275,OOO
scouts and officers for food production.
He said the backyard gardening cam
paign is sweeping the nation and that
the movement to great extent will
prove the solution of the food problem
that now confronts this country.
If these new resources are properly
conserved, Mr.. Benson says, they will
furnish reserve food supply that will
be invaluable to the country in it's pros
ecution of the war.
'This Boy Scout movement alone
means more than 100000 new gar
dens throughout the country this
spring." said Mr.. Benson. "In addition
to raising a garden himself, each scout
is pledged to persuade nine other per-
sons, not scouts, to raise gardens. That
makes ten gardens per scotland
there are 100000 scouts, not counting
the adults in the organization. These
millions of gardens will furnish an ad-
dition to the food supply which the ma
ton will appreciate more next fall than
1t does now"

Wedding Cake Of Ancient Origin.

The wedding cake is Of ancient
origin. In it's earliest form it was moth
ing more than a small cake of wheat
or barley. Half Of this was eaten by
the bride and half by the bridegroom,
as token that they were Joined to-
gether for life. The wedding ring, a
symbol Of everlasting love, is derived
from a heather source. The giving Of
an engagement ring also dates back
many centuries, for in the time Of the
Roman empire the lover always sent
his beloved ring as pledge, but the
young lady had then to be contented
with ring of iron, without stone
Of any kind.

TENDERFooT is REAL SCOUT.

A tenderfoot may not be able to go
out into the woods after rain and
build fire, and his flapjacks may be
black on the outside and raw in the
middle, and when he cooks bacon he
may finish with a fryingpan full of
burnt grease, with just speck here
and there to represent his breakfast,

sound, smooth shell. Use males for
mating with these selected hens that
were Matched from hens that lay the
same kind Of an egg. Use the same
process Of selection the following year,
and in short period of time you will
find that the number Of eggs which
will have to be culled out will grow
gradually less and less. A much larger
percentage of your eggs will grade as

It Is advisable to use hens for breed
Ing purposes because they lay larger
egg than the pullets, and they lay
fewer eggs in the fall and winter and
are in much better condition for
breeding purposes in the spring
months than are the pullets.

SCOUT TRAINING DOES WORK

Major General Hugh L. Scott, chief
OF staff of the United States army, has
written from the war office in Wash
ington to the national headquarters of
the Boy Scouts of America, saying:
''The necessary elementary instruction
that every young American should
have in order to be prepared to play
his part in the national defense, may
be obtained by his work in the Boy
Scouts Of America"
General Scott has made thorough
study Of the methods Of boy training
followed by the Boy Scouts Of
America.

IMPROVED QUALITY OF EGGS
This May Be Brought About by Care
full Selection for Incubation
Use Old Hens.

(By T. E. QUISENBERRY, Missouri)
How are we to breed so that we may
improve the quality of the eggs? We
know it to be fact that a hen lays
essentially the same color and shape
egg year in and year out. OF course
we know that the first eggs of pull
let are small and will gradually In
crease in size until they reach their
normal state. We also know that In
varieties Of poultry which lay brown
eggs the last eggs Of litter" will be
somewhat lighter in color than will
the first eggs laid, so We can see that
the shape and color of an egg changes
slightly.
In attempting to breed to improve
the quality Of eggs, we advise the Sc
lection of eggs for incubation only Of

YOUNG CHICKS NEED WARMTH
Be Careful In Removing Little Fellows

ina Is Main Thing.

In removing chicks from the incu-
bator to the brooder great care must
be taken to prevent them from being
chilled. This can well be accom-
plished by placing them in basket
and covering them with wooden
cloth laid lightly over the chicks or
with burlap or cotton cloth laid over
the basket. A shallow wooden box
having a muslin cover makes very
convenient chick carrier.
The main thing to do is to prevent
killing. Care should be taken to have
the same as that Of the incubator, that
