HAS FIND IN DAVIS
Western League Youngster
Proves a Sensation in Filling
Johnny Lavan's Shoes.
BY DENMAN THOMPSON.

AUGUSTA, Ga. March 19.-"Davls
to Janvrin to Judge" is likely to ap-
pear often in the box scores of the
Washington club this season. AS a
double-play slogan it may attain
something of the fame earned py
Tinker Evers and Chance when that
redoubtable trio held forth on the CUB
team that won four pennants for Chl-
cago and made Charley Murphy mill
lionaire. The ability of the Janvrin-
Judge end of the combination is well
established. The fans know what they
can do. But that Ike Davis has
chance-and a rafting good chance
at that--to horn his way into the Ma
tionals' infield this season did not
fully dawn on the base ball wise IN
the Washington party until today.
when he had his first real opportunity
to display his ability.
1t was apparent from the outset that
Davis had good 'saction." His every
movement bespeaks the athlete and
he looks the part of ball player even
in rcpose, but it was not until this
morning. when he was given thor
ough drill at short field. that the ex-
tent of his capabilities as a fielder
became patent.
Davis is the only infield candidate
with the squad now here and until
today little effort had been made to
test his, prowess, the work having
been con6ned to tossing the ball about
for wing-loosening purposes. fielding
of bunts at short range to work the
stiffness out of backs and limbs and
induce perspiration, and modified mar
athons to improve the wind. But this
morning Davis was stationed at short
and, with Ed Charity covering first,
Nick Altrock put the youngster
through twenty minute drill that
caused the coach to gloat with glee
and brought significant twinkle to the
critical eye of Mike Martin. What
Davis showed them about Scooping up
groufders and stahbing line drives
brought expansive smiles to the faces
of the two lieutenants, who fully ap-
preciate the predics ment Clark Griffith
is in with John Lavan lost to the
team.
Davis handled everything that came
his way with the grace and precision
of veteran campaigner. His task
was made as hard as possible by AL
trocks efforts to get the ball by him,
and was rendered even more difficult
by the poor condition of the infield,
where many ruts and bumps remain
to be ironed out. The youngster is
remarkably fast Of foot. and. unlike
Ray Morgan and many other big
leaguers, has no weak side; he goes

ing to persons familiar with his ath

that he will show some of the college

good pitching really is. To get COM

German Birth Rate Shows
a Drop of Forty Per Cent
Since Beginning of War

The birth rate in Germany for 1916
fell off 40 per cent from the figures for
the year 1913, according to DR.. Charles
Greene Cumston of the University of
Geneva, writing in the New York Med
ical Journal.
Doctor Cumston's figures are taken
from a report prepared by the intelli-
gence department Of the local govern
ment board of Switzerland. Doctor
Cumston says in part:
During the war there has been a
heavy fall in the German birth rate.
The first three years of the war alone
reduced by more than 100000 the
number of infants who would have
been born had peace prevailed.
would add that the infantile death rate
has been kept well down, but is so per
cent higher than in England.
The birth rate, which had risen from
36.1 per 900 inhabitants in the decade
1841-1S50, to 39.1 in the period 1871,
1880, fell in the succeeding decades to
1858, 36.1 and 31.9. The rate for the
last year of the decade 1901-1910 was
30 per 1000 inhabitants, and the con-
tinuance of the fall brought the rate
as low as 28.3 in 1912. In 1918 there
were 1885, 900 live births. In Ger
many, in 1916, there were only HOB,
600, a decrease of 40 per cent as com
pared with 1913"

GULL THE FLOCK

At no time has it been more impOr-
tant to Gull the flock carefully than
now. A good hen is returning to its
owner a good profit; poor one, a cor
responding greater loss. With the gen.
eral purpose breeds the pullet year is
the most profitable. In fact, it will
take two pounds more feed to produce
a pound of eggs with hens than it will
with pullets. No farmer can afford to
keep any hen of the general purpose
type after she has passed through the
second laying season. All females
which have passed the first year of
laying should be marketed unless they
are to be kept for next years breed
ers. IF the farmer cannot tell the age
of his hens, he can avoid future guess
work by putting a ring on the legs OF
the pullets.
Some features that will help the
farmer distinguish hens that have
been good egg producers have been
noted by the University of Missouri
College of Agriculture. In October
the poor layers will have yellow
shanks, a small dull comb, pin bones
close together, and will have COM
pleted molting. The good layer will
be in the mott, will have pale or al
most pink shanks, will be ragged in
appearance and, if laying, the pin
bones will be well spread apart. The
good layer, even though in the mott
will start laying just as soon as the
early molter. The good layer will
have soft velvety skin while that OF
the poor layer will be thick and
coarse.
1t will pay to Gull the flock if the
culling is done right.

Don't Turn Out Your Toes
Or You'll Get Flat Feet;
High Heels No Guarantee

Do you turn your toes out farther
chan necessary when you walk? A
good many people do, asserts an eX-
pert, and there are two reasons why
the practice is a bad one-fOr one
thing, it gives an awkward and affect
ed gait, which may even be a mincing
gait if the habit is very pronounced;
for another thing, it is apt to produce
datfOOt. that unsightly and often pain
full disability.
One hears a good deal about fiat
foot these days, and it is shocking
how many otherwise able and efficient
candidates for the army have to be
turned down by physical examiners
because of this disability-fatfOot So
much attention is being paid to the
welfare of the foot now that flatfOOt
is likely to be far less prevalent in
the next generation, but those who
have been fortunate enough to escape
the trouble so far in this generation
should be very careful not to let it
come upon them.
The common causes of f1atfOOt are
improper shoes and faulty ways of
walking or standing. FlatfOOt will not
be prevented, as many women seem to
fancy, by the continuous wearing of
high heels. There are people who
wear healless tennis shoes all summer
long without injury to the arch of the
foot. 1t all depends on the way one
steps. Barefoot people for the most
part walk with the toes pointing
straight fOrward-if anything a trifle
inward. The Indian always walks in
this way; Soft you will note-does
the barefoot lad in the country. The
toes in this method of walking get a
firm grip on the ground and help to
prOpei the body forward.
To avoid flatfoOt wear supple, roomy
shoes and take care not to toe out ex-
cessively. Make all the toes do their
work in propelling the body forward.

Balloons and Pigeons Were
Used to Garry Mail During
Siege of Paris in 1901

Although airplaneS were unknown In
1870, balloons played an important
part in the siege of Paris, relates a
writer in New York Evening World.
So closely were the Prussian lines
drawn about the city that communion
ton with the outside world was cut
off. The military authorities called
upon the aerOnaut Durouf to make a
balloon flight from Paris. Carrying
$50 pounds of letters, he made the at
tempt, and after flight of three hours
landed at Evreaux, far beyond the
zone of PruSSian control. A regular
mail service was then established, and
though many flights ended in disaster,
it continued until the surrender Of the
city. 1t was in this way that Gambret-
ia, the statesman, made his escape
from Paris to Tours, where he recruit
ed new army, which offered des-
perate but vain resistance to the in
vaders.
The balloon service was maintained
throughout the investment, from Sep
TENDER %, 1870, to January %, 1871.
Letters to be sent ''par bablOnmOte"
were written on very thin paper, and
among the most interesting relics of
the siege are the letter journals, in
vented by LIE Petit Journal. The news
of the besieged city was printed in
very small type on one side of a thin
letter sheet and the other side of the
sheet was left blank for personal COM
munications. About a score of Paris
papers issued these novel sheets, and
practically all letters were written on
them.
Getting letters into the beleaguered
city presented a more difficult problem,
but this was partially solved by send
ing carrier pigeons out with the bal
looms. Letters and dispatches were
photographed and so reduced that a
single pigeon homing its way to Paris
often carried thousands of dispatches
in a quill attached to it's tail. One
pigeon carried to Paris dispatches rep
resenting 100000 francs in postage.

PAPER
ECONOMY HINTS
Don't Be Ashamed to Garry An
Unwrapped Parcel

The good American housewife
should go shopping with basket. It's
the fashion! No longer can you be
ashamed to carry an unwrapped par
eel. thinking perhaps the market bas-
ket will mark your snObbishness. The
war industries board has made an ap-
peal for cooperation to the American
women to help the retail stores comply
with the recent order for disseminating
the wrapping of package merchandise !;
so do not protest when your dealer
asks you to carry home your cabbage,
your beets or carrots, your fancy
cracker box or Iurid strip can unwrap-
ped. Put your pride in your pocket
and your unwrapped parcels in your
basket and trudge home cheerfully
with them. 1t is the fashion!
Disdain the paper bag that you real
ly do not need. Only bread, pastry,
sugar, tea and such things are entitled
to be wrapped just now.
Save paper and help gas the Hun,
for it means more gas for Fritz every
time you say, ''DOn't wrap it."
