mouth breathing interfere with fill
tering, warming, and humidification
of the air on the way to the lungs.
3-Healthy nose and throat are
necessary for normal speech and for
effective instruction in language.
4-Defective nose and throat are
responsible for large majority of
cases of deafness and partial deaf
ness.

through the nose often results in
mental torpor, defective growth, low

edness.
6-Badly enlarged tonsils or sub
ject to frequent inflammation require
removal.
7-Adenoids which cause inflama-
ton of the eustachian tube, or him

moved.
S-Removal of adenoids and dis
eased tonsils should take place as.
early as possible.

tonsils in U. S. is 100000. The

mittee was held on Tuesday evening,
with a good attendance. Arrange
ments were completed for getting in
sufficient number of machines to
attend to the sewing and it is plan
ned to have these installed in the

their homes for time, if so, please
inform Mrs. Cohn.

Red Cross Notes.

The Morrow County Chapter of
the Red Cross desire to thank all
those taking part in the program
given for the draftees on Monday
evening. Tie entertainment was
splendid and its successful manage
ment is greatly appreciated. They
are also gratitied with the very large
attendance of the citizens of Hepp-
ner and Morrow county on this
occasion.

The Heppner Chapter will have
new sewing quarters from now on.
They have been granted the
privilege of using the banquet hall
Of the Masonic building and here
after will make this their work room.
The building is centrally located, the
room is we'll lighted and will be
comfortably heated. All Red Cross
members will please make note of
this change and be governed accord
ingly.

There is much work to be done
for the month of September, and the
allotment for the Morrow County
Chapter should be here now. This
work is to be finished and ready for
delivery by October 1st. There has
been little delay in the shipment,
presumably on account of the Chap
ter here calling for the work to be
sent cut and ready Tor making up.
The headquarters at Seattle is pre-
pared to cut the garments and will
likely send out all such work in the
future in this manner instead of
shipping the goods in bolts as here
tofore.

Convict Road Work.

The State Highway Board has
Just authorized the establishment Of
nine additional prison road camps
in Missouri Under the law counties
must first ask for the use of con-
victs before they can be used in
that county for road construction.
This makes il necessary for the
county court to make its request
both to the state prison board and
the state highway board. Prisoners
are furnished for road work at ST so
per day, the state prison board pay
ing the expense of transportation
equipping and maintaining the
camp. Road machinery must be
supplied by the county. township or
district A charge of SO cents day
is made for the prisoners on days
they do not work this item to
cover the cost of board in camp.
The state highway board has been
cooperating with the state prison
board in equipping the camps, and
applications are on file for prison
labor in different sections of the
state, The men are placed OIL their
honor and work without guards,
The percentage of escapes from
honor road camps" is less than that

men soon become proficient road

is used the men must be worked

direction of men employed nv the
county court. In the case of state

ment, one-half the expense being
borne by the local authorities.

Fishing at the city lake has been
the order of the day for some time
and some real nice fish, mostly
black bass. have been taken. 1t
appears that as the lake is quite
low and the spawning season com
ing on it is not good policy to take
the fish just at this time. These
fish are only about three years old
and many fish with which the lake
was stocked escaped during an over
flow. hence there are few younger
fish in the lake Restocking of the
lake must come this year from the
original stock and it doesn't seem
they should be removed until after
the spawning season.

LAJOIE IS 43 TODAY

Tack another annum upon the life of Napoleon Lajoie The great Frenchman passes his 43d milestone today, as he was born in woonsocket, R. L, on Sept. 5, 1875. For over 20 years he has been pounding the pellet, mostly in the main works of balldom. He began with the Phillies in 1s96- and they finished eighth, which wasn't a very suspicious beginning for Ma poleon. He had played more and better ball than any other man in the business, with the possible exception of Honus Wagner and Ty Cobb, yet Napoleon has never figured in a div1- sion of worlds series kale.
 La5oie-who pronounces his name 'Iazh-way," or something like that was a. member of the Woonsocket fire department and played with a club in an amateur league, before he heard the call of the professional diamond. Charley Marston, manager of the Fall River club of the New England league, discovered Lajoie. He offered Larry s10O a month, and, although his folks protested, Lajoie accepted. He had been pitching and catching with the amateur clubs, but Marston refused to give him a chance on the mound. No wonder, for Larry batted' .42S in the 80 games he played with Fall River, and in that period played every infield and outfeld position. Along in August Philadelphia paid Fall River
 S1,200 for a pitcher namer Geier, and Larry was thrown in for good meas ude. So does fate play with big men!

WORLDS SERIES l STOPPED BY RAIN
Weather Man in Chicago Is Not Optimistic About
 Chances for Today.

Chicago, Sept. 5-The worlds ser- ies got off to gloomy start yester- day. The first game of the set, scheduled for Comiskey park yester- day afternoon, had to be postponed which started at 8 o'clock yesterday morning and battered down relentless ly for the remainder of the day.
 The outlook for today isn't par ticularly promising either, as the skies remained overcast and gray. The weather man added his bit to the general gloom by predicting more ran, for today.
 On the whole the Chicago fans well comed the postponement, as 1t assur- ed them of Saturday game. An other postment today will mean a Sunday game at Comiskeys spacious park, as the teams remain here until three games are played to a decision.
 Should the first game be played here today and the following games played on Friday and Saturday it will not interfere with the Boston sched- ule, as the first game in the Hub is mot carded until next Monday. The teams then would utilize next sun day in making the jump to Boston.
 However, if the rain continues to- day the clubs will not open in Bos- ton until next Tuesday. Veteran worlds series followers are afraid that the present series will see such flood as the one in 1911, which held up the Giants and Athletics for a solid week after three games had been played.
 On the eve of the series it became known that Manager Ed Barrow of the Red Sox has even greater diffi- culties with his infield than weakness at third base. The veteran infielde1 Davey Shean, who has played second base for Boston all season, may not appear in the series as the result o1 splitting the middle finger of his right hand during fielding practice.

DOINGS in SHORTHAND
SUNDAY BALL
 IS NO CRIME

New York, Sept. Magistrate Short, in the Bridge Plaza Court, yesterday came out in favor of Sun day baseball where no admission is charged. He made the ruling when Sergeant William Wostenholm, of the Stagg street station, asked for a war rant for the arrest of ballplayers, members of the Empire City Athletic Association, who stage games at Arc tic Park, Gardner and Johnson ave- nues.
 The Sergeant told the Magistrate that a magazine was sold at the grounds, that the spectators could, but were not compelled, to purchase it; that no admission was charged, and neighbzors had not complained of any disorder at the games. In denying the request for a warrant Magistrate Short said:
 "The question whether or not ball playing on Sunday is a crime has been frequently brought before the Court, but in my opinion 1t is no crime, per SC, though attending cir cumstances may make it crime.
 'The courts, not only in this State, but elsewhere, are not in harmony on the subject of Sunday baseball, With most it seems different between public and private game, and it is the former which comes within the Sunday law, where it Is obligatory up- on this entering the gates to pay admission fee or purchase a score card, together with the element o1 disorder being present, which all fir all gives the game it's public charac. | ter.
 "On the other hand, as in the in stant case, there was no disorder which invaded the sanctity of the day and no admission fee was demanded of those who attended, but optiona and in no way compulsory for then l to purchase a certain pamphlet or sale therein. Then it is impossible for me to spell into their conduct ar l intent to desecrate the Sabbath, anC does not come within the condemna i tion of the statute"
