Two discoveries have added greatly
to human welfare.

grains. zritkoM cane sugar.
This product HoRLick named
Matted Milk. (Name since copied

Reds went sadly away from here. de-
prived of two fat. luscious days of
combat with the Giants. who are AFRO
gantly leading the National league in
spite of st. Swithin. Chances were
good for q postponement of the final
game scheduled for the present al
legged series because of rain.
A four game series with the Cubs
and a similar battle with the Reds had
flowed down the river. Across Brook
Ign bridge Charles Ebbets was tearing
his hair, for he had lost the same
thing.
Between them the Dodgers and Gil
ants-to say nothing of the Cubs and
Reds-had lost a young fortune.
Thousands of persons assembled daily
at the two playing fields, gambling on
the chances of a game being played.
Last week Ebbets and John Nc
Graw postponed games when there
was no rain falling. McGraw wanted
to rest his pitchers. The reason for
Ebbets postponement was not known
but it was suspected he was influenced
by McGraw's action.

LAWRENCE STILL A LITTLE SHY.
University Town Would Keep Air
planes 1000 Feet Above Streets.

Lawrence, Kan. July 23.-One of
the first city ordinances in Kansas for
the purpose of regulating airplane
traffic is being prepared by Mayor
George Kreeck of Lawrence and will
soon be submitted to the city COM
mission. The ordinance will require
all aviators flying over Lawrence,
either for exhibition purposes or for
carrying passengers. to fly at a height
of not less than one thousand feet
The ordinance will merely follow
rules of army aviation fields, which
have always prohibited low flying"
said Mayor Kreeck. "I believe If the
aviator knows an officer is waiting
to arrest him for low flying when he
lands he will be more particular about
his height. AT one thousand feet /
am told that a flyer can volplane to
earth without power and without en-
dangering the lives and property OF
those beneath"

Commerce club of st. Joseph shows
the attention that is being directed to
the city from other points. Robert
Fullerton. chairman of the city COM
mission on aviation, has been asked to
assist the business men of st. Joseph
in giving them information on To-
peka's plan for an aviation field.
In reply to a query from the st.
Joseph club, Fullerton advised the air
boosters of that city to communicate
with the air service head at Washing
ton. and he advised them not to charge
for the use of their field to private
and commercial planes. The most
profitable way of building On air center,
Fullerton believes. is to encourage in
terest in aerial transportation of every
type.
The ST Joseph club suggested that
Topeka. st. Joseph. Omaha, Kansas
City, Wichita and other cities of this
part of the country get together and
cooperate as much as possible. Uni
form regulations would assist mater
tally in putting these cities in big type
