Base Ball.

There was no game Of base ball in
Mount Holly, on Saturday, as the
Empire Tire team, of Trenton,
scheduled to play here, failed tc
appear.
Moorestown went to Florence, on
Saturday, and went home with q
victory over the ''would-be county
champions''-sco 20. This is the
second defeat that Moorestown has
handed the Florence aggregation this
year. Going by past occurrences it
isn't likely that Florence will play
Moorestown any more.
Next Saturday there promises to be
q fine game on the Mount Holly
ground. The visitors will be team
from the colored troops camped at Fort
Dix, Wrightstown. There are three
ball clubs there, and the one to be sent
to Mount Holly will be composed of
the pick Of the three. Some of the
fastest colored players in the country
are included in the list. The regimen
tai brass band may accompany the
players to Mount Holly.
The annual feud between the Delan
co and Palmyra teams had its first
round on Saturday. 1t was pitchers
battle, as only six hits were raped out

two by Dslanco. Palmyra won by
score of too. The feature of the
game was the star work of Holman,
who covers second bag for Delanco.

FILTH, FINGERS AND FLIES.
Thsse Are the Most Potent Factors IL
Spreading Disease.

Spreading Disease.
Fingers as disease carriers rank next
to flies. Dirty fingers and finger nails
may carry about with them as many
disease germs as dirty flies. For this
reason filth, fingers and flies are said
to be the most common means by
which disease is spread. A safe rule
that has been given with reference to
avoiding any infection that the hands
might carry is to wash the hands I'M
mediately before eating. before han
ding, preparing or serving food, after
attending the sick and after handling
anything dirty.
A common habit with many people
that Is not only dangerous from a
health point of view, but is disgusting
" indecent from every point Of view,
is the constant picking of the nose and
mouth with the fingers. A safe rule
and a decent one is to keep the hands
away from the face, particularly the
nose and mouth, and II these parts
need attention use a clean handker
chief. A dirty handkerchief is as dan
gerous and may be as much means
Of spreading disease as dirty fingers.
| The United States public health serv
ice says: Disease germs lead a hant

would learn to keep the unwashed hant
away from the mouth many human dis
eases would be greatly diminished. w

the hands to the mouth If the hand

with saliva before counting money
turning the pages Of book or perform
ing similar acts. In this case tn
process is reversed, the infection bein
carried to the object handled, there

i II anybody doubts the filth of the
own hands and fingers let them tab
