Interested Parties Are Now Trying to
Organize. Have Good Players.

A good bit of enthusiasm is being
worked up over the prospect OF base
ball team for Shellman. Dawson, Edi-
son, Cuthbert and most all the towns
adjoining us are enjoying afternoons
seeing real first class, -the-m1n-
ute baseball games. Why can't we
have the same? There was a time
when Shellman was known far and
wide for its games. If you will just
lend hand we can again get the spirit
going and liven up things. Mr.. Hopp
is doing his best spending lots of time
towards this movement. Lend him a
helping hand and let's put it across.
We can have as good team as anybody
if we try.

Prince Albert's a new
note in the joys of rolling EN-!

And, for a fact, rolling
up Prince Albert is mighty
easy! P. A. is crimp cut and
stays put and you whisk it
into shape before you can
count three! And, the next
instant you're putting away
to beat the band!
Prince Albert is so good
that it has led four men to
smoke jimmy pipes where
one was smoked before! It's
the greatest old buddy
smoke that ever found it's
way into a pipe or cigarette!

MANY THINGS CAUSE
ENGINE TO OVERHEAD

Don't always blame the cooling sys-
tenn when the engine overheats. The
mixture supplied by the carburetor
may be causing the trouble. perhaps
being too rich Possibly the spark Is
not advanced far enough; maybe the
oiling system is ciogged or for some
other reason is not properly lubricat-
ing the mechanism of the power plant
1t might even be possible that the
fan belt is slipping. thus preventing the
fan from doing it's full duty. Then
there are the brakes. They may be
dragging because the bands are too
tight, a condition which can only be
discovered by lacking UP the rear
wheels and noting whether or not they
turn freely.
Overheating Is often chargeable to
improper Distinguishing the low gear
too long when the car should be
running in high.

Not many years ago and. let "a

ing custo n to consider any visiting
motorist fair game. The nrst traffic
cop who spied a license plate from
another State marked the driver OF
the car bearing IL as his own and
promptly handed him a summons. no
matter how exemplary his conduct
might chance to be. II is pleasant 10
note that this old idea is passing.
One city. at any rate, has pushed
the pendulum over TO the other side
so far as TO arrange a positive well

courteous welcome and any informa-

NEW ARMY CATERPILLAR.

The ordnance department of the
United States army has developed
combined wheel and caterpillar mount
for heavy and light artillery. This
invention makes it possible. when
running on smooth roads to fold back
the caterpillar traction, so that the
tank can be run on wheels, giving it
the speed of an ordinary automobile.
When approaching rough ground the
caterpillar traction is quickly re-
adjusted so the machine can nego-
tiate any kind OF rough going.

president planned to confer with ad- ministration officials and members o. congress before rounding out welfare department plans he first presented during his campaign and later formal ly recommended to congress.
 Some administration officials are represented as opposing any effort to consolidate additional educational agencies like the bureau of education in the interior department with the projected welfare department On the contrary. it was said. they believe that department of education should be created separately, leaving public health and related subjects to the welfare department.
 Organized labor's objections. as voiced by Matthew Woll, vice presi- dent of the labor federation, to re- moval of the women's and children's bureau from the labor department, rested on the contention that with them would go supervision over wom- en and children in industry, matters in which labor is held to have vital interest.
