PRESCOTT SCORES
 ONE ON MALVERN

The Prescott ball team iourneyed to Malvern yesterday morning and met the team of that place Tn tilt in the afternoon which resulted in a score of five 10 one in favor Of Malvern Good base ball was played all thru the game Jimmy Bush pitched the first three innings but not being in form was removed and Peek" Wilson was put in in his stead Tn the fourth. Peek delivered the ole ball in splendid shape only allowing one run and that run was made on an error. This is the first actual try-out young Wilson has had this season and he certainly made his mark in the world by the manner in which he handled the Malvern bat ters during his six innings of wcl ing.
 Prescott's tw onew players who will be in the game with Malvern this af ternoon, namely: Jew" Nelson boy with reputation in base ball hailing from Gurdon, Is said to play a tight game in the outfield- A Mr. Taylor, the front handle of whose name we have been unable to learn, comes to us from Benton and for local fans benefit we will say that Mir. Taylor was short stop on the All-Star Ark ansas state college team this season Both men will return with our boys when they come back home. With the lineup for this afternoon, Prescott looks good for win with the Nal vern lads.

Keen In the Game.

Just as soon as you take time to
sit on the sldelIne you begin to worry
about yourself and your possessions.
SO the only way to keep an open mind
Is TO keep busy. Besides there's a
satisfaction In II that grows with each
achievement. However dark the morn
Ing, noon and evening are bright when
you start things early enough. It's
natures way of bringing contentment
When you are kept busy enough you
have no time to watch for sights and
chllls from cold shoulders. AS long as
you can make the days produce some
thing that helps the world there is
something that keeps adding JOY to
your life and years to your future.
The best of all ways to keep abreast
OF the times is to start something
Exchange.

w HEN the talk is of bridesmaids
w frocks there Is no telling the
wide ranges II will travel, for here Is
where the bride may give range to her
fancy, especially If she is to have a
bevy of maids. She may choose to
lead them back few centuries In
choosing styles or she Is more than
likely to pick out some period not so
remote and revive its charm of quaint
dress or she may decide to be very
modern and frankly frivolous. But II
she hopes to please everybody let her
decide that her maids shall look de-
mure and beautiful. They can do this
In clothes with either an ancient or
a modern flavor.
Taffeta, georgette and fine net, all
make lovely frocks for bridesmaids
and each of them amounts to an in
surance of success; yet they are as
different as can be. All are beautiful
in light colors, and net, in white, used
to veil color, makes practical frock
that will give n great deal of service
after II has played its part at we'd
ding. Georgette is astonishingly dur
able in spite of its fragile looks, and
everyone knows the virtues of taffeta.

y EORGErTE holds It's own as the
NJ superlative In elegant fabrics for
afternoon gowns and will until some
genius comes along who is able to ex-
eel il. II seems improbable that any
thing more beautiful can be made and
the refinement of georgette has made
II so great favorite with designers
that they use II for many things and
for all ages. But where the adynn-
tages show at their best IS In those
lovely gowns for afternoon--beautiful
and restrained In style-in which woin-
en- put their very best efforts at gown
ing and which are the delight of cos
tuners.
One OF the two gowns shown In the
group above, reveals what has been
done with georgette In an afternoon
frock for this summer. Imagine this
in pale tan or In twine color with
white beads used In its establishment,
and little medallions Of filet lace set In
and edged with embroidery silk, like
the gown In color. The skirt has a

the bride who has decided To draw
upon 1920 TO supply the style her
maids shall wear, Is pictured here.
Tucks and frills, all at their pretty
best In net. are used for trimming.
An undersklrt of net has two groups
OF narrow tucks about the. bottom and
over II long and full tunic, wired
about the hips. A frill over the wired
line proclalms its allegiance to the
old hoop skirt effect, which Is the In
spiration of this frock. Below the
frill two groups of narrow tucks give
an embroidered band of net the proper
setting. The short sleeves are very
frilly, with three narrow flounces as
a finish, headed with group Of tucks,
The bodice is slightly low, giving a
line across the bust and shoulders that
is I'm keeping with the hooped skirt.
A frill Mt the neck opening has tucks
and embroidered band below and at
each side plain net gathered In and
extending to the waist, gives an added
| fullness. The sash of narrow satin
ribbon with hanging loops and long
ends set on at each side Is n charming
accessory, the loops falling from clus
ters of little chiffon roses.

Hub caps won't always come Off
merely by wrench persuasion. even
when considerable manual effort is
also used, says Motor Life. If the
cap is so tight that you cannot bulge
It by your own efforts, bring the jack
into the matter. Use a fairly long

under the end of the handle. A few
strokes of the Jack will get the best

THINGS TO KNOW
ABOUT YOUR CAR
Watch Your Generator and Stor.
age Battery Carefully Dur
ing Season Changes.
PROPER RATE FOR CHARGING
Great Care Must Be Exercised In Put.
ting Right Amount Of Current
Through Battery to Restore En-.
ergy Contained In Cells.

Due to the change of seasons from
the cold weather conditions to warm
er II is well TO see that the generator
that may have been boosted to take
care of the cranking conditions should
be changed to take care of the crank
ing conditions brought about by warm
weather. II Is not necessary to have
as much current flowing into n storage
battery during the warmer weather
as It is during the cold, because of
the fact that the oil is not as heavy
and the engine is not so hard to crank,
says a writer In an exchange. The
gasoline is easier vaporized and the
ignition has more voltage, due to the
fact that the battery can exert its
full energy.
Change In Charging Rate.
The reason that we advise change
in charging rates at this season of
the year Is because of the fact that
great many batteries that have been
used abnormally at this season of the
year and during the cold weather have
been worked to their limit; In other
words they have been almost entirely
exhausted and to start recharging
these batteries, even while on the car
at high rate will cause rapid
deterioration of the plates and also is
liable to cause a great deal of trouble
from armatures becoming overheated
cutout on the machine becoming over
heated and causing 1t to burn out. The
charging rate considered which is
proper for generators of certain types
is between 10 and 10 amperes and 1t
is not advisable to carry the charging
rate higher than this because of the
reflex action that this has on the gen.
orator and battery and regulating
apparatus. 1t is always good to take
into consideration that the lower
charging rate Is the better for bat
terry that has been worked hard than
to start rapid charging rate.
Bring Back Gradually.
There is a very similar condition
existing between the charging of a
storage battery and the case of q sick
man. When the patient is on the road
TO recovery, the physician always ad-
vlses that the food be carefully Sc
lected and the patient gradually be
brought back TO his full strength. The
same applies to a storage battery
Great care must be taken with the
proper amount of current put through
the battery to restore the energy con
tained In the cells. 1t is also adyis
able at this time 'of the year before
going into summer driving to have the
voltage and gravity tests taker
periodically so that the battery's re
cuperatlon will be brought back to {
normal state without causing undue
danger.

DIPHTHERIA ON INCREASE
 THROUGHOUT THIS STATE

The weekly mortality report issued for last week by the state department of health shows that three cases of diph- theria were reported from Norwich dur ing the week. Diphtheria increased mark edly throughout the state during the week, 137 eases being reported com pared with 95 cases for the week pre- Nious The disease Increased in Bridge port Greenwich, Hartford, New Britain, Plainfield and Willimantic particularly.
 There are many cases of mild scarlet fever and measles in Connecticut that are not reported because the cases are not under medical attention and parents are unaware that by law they are required to report such cases to the local health officer. Unfortunately these mild unre- ported eases are capable of causing the severe and fatal fo $ # these diseases and their spread is, in part, thus ac- couhted for.
