NATIONAL PRESIDENT GIVES SALIENT
 COMMENT
BY JOHN K. TENER, President of the National League

. There is no good reason why our national game of baseball should not prove to be as popular as ever during the season of 1918 notwithstanding the universal anxiety centered in the terrible conflict now being waged on the European battlefields for world wide democracy. I am confident that the American people will Loyalty sup port their national pastime and that baseball will be even more popular when this awful emergency shall have passed into history.
 It is generally admitted that the best means of obtaining physical recreation is to seek and cultivate some outdoor sport. The inclina- tion for some form of sport in the open by youth and adult is as old as the world. This was true in Greece and later in Rome when the great empire was in outward form a republic. In our modern day the greatest sport loving people in the universe are those of the English speaking race, on which the sun never ceases to shine, and in whom the spirit of liberty is more strong ly implanted than any other people since the dawn of creation
 The American game of baseball never has had an equal as an out door sport and it is hardly conceiv- able that it ever will It seems that this game of our own invention in cludes and embraces every essential that stimulates the mind, recreates the exhausted faculty, amuses the jaded sense, revives the sluggish blood, makes strong the weak muscles and impels vigor and health to the
 body that no other form of exercise
 combining the element of sport can accomplish. Thousands of young
 Americans engage in the game of 1 baseball, either as a means of pleas ] urable exercise and recreation or as
 a means of honorable livelihood, while millions witness the playing of games l both professional and amateur

HOUSE |S
 WELL [FUM|GATED

Following the instructions of Dr. W. o. SWeek, state superintendent of pub- lie health, the state capitol building yesterday was closed at noon and the entire building fumigated.
 An epidemic of measles that had at tackled several young women clerks and stenographers employed in the capitol building, was the direct cause of the fumigating order. Two or three young women at the capitol had been attacked with the measles, but it was not until four women in a single office were seized with that disease that it was suspected that the measles germs had established headquarters in the state house.
 Before the capitol building is opened for business on Monday morning it will have been thoroughly fumigated with formaldehyde and the fear of further | infection will be dispelled.

Realizing that the restoration of self-reliance is the most valued gift to men blinded through the misfor- tunes of war, Mrs. Russell, wife of Col. Benjamin Reeve Russell, United States marine corps. is taking les sons in basket weaving and the wrapping of wires for electrical equipment so that she may be able to impart this knowledge should the occasion arise. Recently in New York a number of blind were taught wire wrapping, acquiring the art so quickly that within months time they were self-supporting.'
