He should play out summer and winter, in the rain and in the snow If he wants to. He is starving for fresh air and exer. else, and if you will open the door for him you will do more for him than any doctor in the land could do. His appetite will come up. You must give him plenty of good food to eat, and let him sleep till he wakes, put his bed out on the porch if there is one, and if not perhaps you can have one built. Give him a good bath over with warm water and soap at least twice a week. and a rub-down every morning with towel wrung as dry as you can make it out of cold water.
 If you do these things for a year you won't know him for the same boy.

OUTLOOK TOUGH FUR ST LOUIS
 CARDINALS
(By United Press)

BOSTON, March 13. - The same sterling pitching staff, the same ener. getic field, and the same snappy, punchy outfield. probably will be seen in action for the Braves this year There are certain to be a few changes. but for the most part the Braves will be just as they finished a year ago Such a solidity of purpose, a bulwars of defense, and an angle of attack have been developed that to tear away part of the machine would be to dam. age it badly, in the opinion of George Stallings. He made a game fight a year ago. and he figures he will be able to deliver the same punch again this year. The catching staff again will depend upon Hank Gowdy, the backstop who played with such amaz. ing skill during the worlds series of 1915. He will have as assistants Blackburn. good youngster, and Ira gressor. Ricco will be given a tryout, but is not expected to horn in ahead of the others.
 Stallings remarked a short time ago | that he has heard from Bill James and | that the pitching star believes he can get his arm into shape for a season ! this summer. James was useles sin the last campaign. but was kept on in the hope that he would develop something. So far it has been a hope, but he win be given plenty of time to get in shape this spring.
 Dick Rudolph, Nehf. Hughes, Ragan, Tyler and Davis are expected to hold up most of the pitching. This staff is plenty for most any club. Stallings, in fact, is rated by many to be in a position to give the Giants a stronger battle for the pennant than any man. ager in the league.
 Collins, Magee and Wilhoit, the out, field which did the heavy work last years, seems to have the call, but Joe Kelly, obtained from Chicago in the trade which sent Fred Mitchell to that city, promising man, has been added to the team. Kelly has had major league experience. He will have to show the goods if he sticks. Larry Chappelle also will get another ma jor league trial
 The infield will be composed of konetchy, Eyers, Maranville and Smith, combination which never has failed to acquit itself with credit. The Braves now are in Miami, Florida, pre- pairing for the season in their costly plant. They will meet the Athletics in series of three games at Miami. be- ginning March 22.

tIon asked sergt. W. C. Hunt. by an
ased, whre-hafred woman who ap-
heared at the army recruiting tent
YESTERDAY.
Nhe officer was astonished at the
unusual nature Of the request, but
noting the evident sincerity of his
qusssttoaer. he gravely Informed her
that all soldiers are required to sleep
In camp or at the barracks, except
for an occasional furlough.
An angry woman entered the navy
recruiting station yesterday, and ad-
dressing Lieut.. L. E. Morgan, re-
eruiting oficer. said:
This government has got q whole
lot Of nerve to send sailors around
to my house and kidnap my boy by
enticing him to enlist with all these
posters and things. In the 20 years
have spent in bringing him up in
the way he should go, might have
converted myself into an independent
business woman. He wasn't a man,
only a boy of 10. How am 1 going
TO live? He was my only support. I
never gave my consent for him to
enlist
Asked in just what way the sailors
has stolen her boy, she replied, You

CONCRETE MERCHANT
SHIPS ARE PLANNED
New Process to Be Used to Increase
u. S. Tonnage.

Construction of concrete ships as
practical means Of building up the
country's depleted merchant marine if
being given serious consideration by
the shipping board. said Chairman
Denman yesterday. Marine engi-
neers are becoming convinced that
the successful use Of concrete barges
points the way to a new type Of sea-
going vessel.
In pursuance Of this theory, ten
San Francisco shipping men have
subscribed $4,000 each to build a
concrete vessel in that harbor. From
the construction of these vessels 1t lie
expected that subsequent steps will
develop concrete ships as an effectual
means of rapidly increasing the num-
Der of vessels in government service.
The first concrete ship to be built
will be at Redwood Harbor. 1t will
be constructed under a secret process
developed by Kenneth Mcdonald, tr..
and his brother, Alan Mcdonald.
The company which Is being formed
for patriotic coetribution to the gov
ernment includes Leslie Comyn, John
A. Hooper, E. A. Christensen and
John Lawson.

Washington. War demands it.
1--WE are entering upon the greatest
period of universal service in the his
tory of the world" declares Howard E.
Coffin. whose commanding position on
the Council for National defense makes
itycertain that he voices the purpose OF
the Administration. 'This will not In
any sense be limited to military SER
vice, but will reach into every In OF
activity. In the crisis Wh1cA me
United States now enters, every re-
source, human and material, will be
bent to the Nations needs"
Few people outside of Washington
realize that within a few months there
has been created in the Council for
National Defense a new branch of the
Government with powers almost as
great as the British War Council. The
council is composed of the members
OF the Cabinet whose functions make
them responsible for the conduc@ OF
the war, and of seven other persons
selected from private life who are
termed an advisory board, but who in
reality are an integral part Of the
council.
This council has enormously great
powers than has ever before been
held by any group of men in the Uni
ted States, and Howard =. Coffip. as
chairman of the advisory board ard
in charge of all plans for the pro0"e-
lion of munitions, is the domin-nt
force in, the council.
When he speaks, therefore, o the
administrations plans, his word car
RES weight second only to thatqi the.
President himself.

TRESSPAsSERS ON r. r. PRO-
PERTY LIABLE 10 BE SHOT.

Washington, d. c., April 16-"Tress-
passing on railway property, at all
times a perilous practice, involves an
even greater hazard for the trespasser
now that it has become necessary to
place armed guards at strategic points
to prevent possible interference with
the country's transportation through
the depredations of enemy agents.
said Fairfax Harrison, president of the
Southern Railway System and chair
man of the American Railway Associa-
TONS Special Committee on National
Defense, calling attention to the inn
portance of all loyal citizens keeping
off railway premises unles they have
BUSINESS thereon.
I'm addition to the ever-present
danger of being killed by a train" Mr.
continued, "the man vino now
trespasses on railway property sub
jects himself to the peril of being shot,
should he fail to heed the challenge
of the military guard. Chraged with
the duty of protecting railway struc-
lures whose destruction would inter-
fere seriously with transportation, the
guards cannot afford to take any
chances. Unfortunate occurrences can
be avoided if citizens who have no
business on railway property will keep
of. 1t is especially important that
pedestrians who have been accustomed
to walking tracks, rather than the pub
lie highways, should understand the
added danger and recognize that Shey
can perform a patriotic service by
avoiding it."
