that the sentiment Of congress II

and equipment from this camp Il
others either east or south, but that
the secretary Of war is apparently
determined that the thing shall be
done.
There Is a resolution in congress
that should have the eeffct Of keep
ing the war secretary from taking
immediate action. 1t Is in the ma
ture Of an inquiry as to why Fun

Secretary Baker does not seem dis
posed to pay any more attention to
congress than the president has
done.
Assurances are given by the chair
man Of the committee on military
affairs Of the house and by Kansas
representatives and s/aators that all
possible pressure will be pyt on to
prevent the abandonment of Camp
Funston. and to delay any action by
the secretary of war until after the
new congress comes in. The best
that could be obtained from Secre-
tary Baker was that the camp would
not be wholly abandoned. but would
be used in connection with Fort Ri
ley.
For some reason. not disclosed,
there appears to be a determination
on the part Of the secretary Of war
and the military men to place the
troops Of the nation in the east and
south. Some look upon the plan as
purely political. There is talk that
the action is a rebuke to the great
west for the way it voted in Nov

1t is reported today that orders
have come to Camp Funston for the
demOlishing Of buildings. removal Of
all troops and equipment. by the
last Of January. If this is a fact, 1t
indicates the purpose Of Secretary of
War Baker to complete. the work Of
Funston wilderness be-

While the committee which visit

Camp Funston as 1t has existed dur !

ground for hope that such may vet |
be the case; especially is 1t believed
that such will be the result provid-

LEGION ASKS JUSTICE

The American Legion has served
notice on President Harding that the
campaign for adjusted compensations
for former service men cannot be
downed," the message being delivered
in person by Gilbert Bettman. chair
man of the national legislative COM
mittee of the organization.
Later Mr.. Bettman handed decla-
ration of similar import to Secretaries
Mellon and Hoover, and Attorney
General Daugherty, and issued a
statement which he said contained
substance of what he had said to the
president and three cabinet members.
1t asserted that the history Of the
legislation showed both houses in
favor of it, yet the president of the
United States followed the unusual
procedure of appearing before the
Senate to ask them for a deferment of
the passage of the adjusted compen-
sation bill.
at is our purpose to show the ad-
ministration," it said. "that the de-
mand for an adjustment of compensa-
ton will not and cannot down. It is
based on simple justice. The Ameri-
can Legion urges the president and
his administration not to stand in the
way of early passage by Congress of
this measure"

AVOID ASPARAGUS
Eminent Physician Says that Eating
it Causes the Blues

Cleveland, o., July 29.-Asparagus
causes "the blues" said DIR. Charles
Hazard of New York city, former
president of the American 0steopath-
ic Association, in a paper which re
read at the national osteopathic con-
vention. This is not the fault of the
asparagus, however, explained the
doctor He did not condemn asparagus
but explained that when it does
cause 'the blues" it is because the
persons system is already clogged
with its own impurities. He said:
"The asparagus is the last straw
which, added to the toxic state of the
system, produces physical state of
the brain and nerves which is reflect
ed in the blues This happens because
the mechanistic state Of the persons
physical system is such that the or
gans of elimination have not been
capable of doing their work well for
such long time that the system has
become poisoned with its own debris.
But had the system been kept always
in good mechanical condition, elimi-
inaton would have proceeded normal
ly, the system would have kept clear
of poisons, and no bad effects would
have followed the eating of asparagus,
for the normal mechanism would
readily throw of the acid Of the vege-
tables"
Mental functions, in other words,
according to the speaker. are marked
ly influenced by the condition of the
blood. He explained this as follows:
ain the struggle that mems phys
ical organism must constantly keep
up in order to grow, function and
keep healthy, it is always that organ
ism that is handicapped by the pres
ence Of distractions to the free flow
of its nerve and blood currents that
has the least chance to survive and
keep well.
"a mans mental functions cannot
keep clear and efficient and normal
unless his brain and nerves are fed
by copious streams Of pure blood. The
blood cannot be pure and circulate
freely so long as the organs of elm
nation are obstructed.
$50 it is that what is one mans
meat becomes another mans poison
Faulty diet is largely matter rela-
tive TO the mechanical status Of the
physical body of the individual"

did some good work and got out of
the hole with only one casualty. Hor-
ton struck out. Medlin bunted and
made good sacrifice of it. Clements
fielded the ball but it was too late to
catch West at the plate, so he threw
to first and caught Medlin. Crumley
few out to Lidde1l This was Liddell's
star catch. If he had missed it two
more runs would have scored.
Second: Both teams took the one,
two, three route.
Third: Ocala out in regular order.
First man up for Leesburg got on by
an error from Strickland but the
next three hit into outs and the side
was retired scoreless.
Fourth: Perez led off with fly to
short. Strickland drew an error from
short but was out trying to steal sec
ond. Wood doubled to left and we
would have had wonderful chance to
score If Strickland had been on base,
but that Buckles was there with his
peg yesterday and nobody went to sec
ond. The same may be said of Wood
for neither team was credited with a
stolen base. Swink struck out and
left Wood on second. Leesburg didn't
smell first in this round.
Fifth: Harris led off with a single
but Brooks popped out and Luffman
hit into a double play, right field to
first. Buckles and Epperson each
singled. West struck out. Gillespi
sacrificed the runners to second and
third but Rolling was out on foul
to third and retired the side.
Sixth: Ocala went out in double
quick time. Leesburg got on base
again but was stopped before crossing
the plate. w. Horton led off with a
| single. He was forced at second.
Crumley hit to short and Medlin was
forced at second. J. Horton struck
out.
Seventh: Strickland beat out an in
field hit but was caught trying to pill
fer second. Wood few out to pitcher
and Swink struck out. Leesburg got
a man on when Swink made an error
but nothing came of it because the
side was retired scoreless.
Eighth: Ocala went out without a
struggle. Leesburg got away for two
more runs and ruined what was q
good game. Rolling led off with q
double to center field. w. Horton
struck out. Medlin singled to right
and Rolling scored from second, Med
lin going to second on the throw tc
the plate. Crumley hit to Swink who
over threw first and Medlin scored
Horton flew out to Swink. Buckles
struck out.

AGAIN LEESBURG
Won FROM OCALA
Took Second Game of the Series, by
3 to o, from Our Boys in
Leesburg Yesterday
by L. T. Il

Leesburg appears to have the hairy
Angora of the Ocala team for they
took the second game of the series
from our boys yesterday afternoon in
Leesburg. Quite a good number of
0cala fans were on the job as visit
ing rooters and likely there would
have been more of them but for the
rain. There had been no rain in Lees
burg. Everything was dusty down
there.
The game was hard fought one.
Gordon Epperson had the Ocala boys
under the ball of his thumb at all
stages of the game and it was his in
yincible pitching that brought the
bacon to the Leesburg hut: 1t seemed
that the Ocala boys could not get
connected with his hooks and bends at
the time when such connection would
have spelled disaster to the Leesburg
nine. Epperson held our team to
three hits scattered is as many in
nings. Clements, pitching for US. was
in good form and pitched style of
ball that usually wins ball games, but
it was foreordained that we lose yes
terday's game so the hard work by
the banker was for naught. Leesburg
only got five hits from "Bub' Glenn
ents. They earned one run off our
twirler when they got two-bagger
and a single in one inning. Even that
run might have been stopped by a
true peg from right field to the plate.
The other two runs were du to errors.
The umpiring was satisfactory on
the whole although Clements and
Wood said that Sir Umps was little
doubtful about the corners. Jimmie
Liddell and J. Horton each distin-
guished themselves by miraculous
catches. Jimmie got his out of the
top of an orange tree. 1t is a good
thing that the tree was barren OF
Jimmie might have mistaken an or
ange for the ball. He ran back as far
as he could and saw that the ball was
going to hit in this tree and made a
one-hand stab just as the ball got
there. Horizons wonder catch was
made running forward at full speed
Wood and Rolling each got two-bag-
gers. Aside from those there was lit
tie hitting of note on either side.
First inning: LiddeH led off fol
Ocala by going cut third to first. Pc.
rez popped up very high infield fly
between pitcher and first. Eppersor
and Gillespi did the Alphonso and
CASTOR stuff until the grandstand was
on pins and needles and sure enough
the ball dropped untouched to the
ground. Strickland drew a lucky er-
ror from third and both runners were
safe. Perez had an idea that he could
steal third-he couldn't. Wood flew
out to center field. Leesburg scored
in the first. West walked after there
were two strikes and no balls on him
This is where Clements claims thai
the umpire had sand in his eyes. Gil
lespi got an error from Strickland
Rolling was hit by Clements and the
bases were full. The Ocala fans were
about ready to go home but Clement.
