YOUNG GIRLS NEED CARE
Mothers, watchyour Daughters'Heal
Health Is Happiness

From the time a girl reaches the age of twelve until womanhood is es- tablished, she needs all the care a thoughtful mother can give.
 The condition that the girl is then passing through is so critical, and may have such fsr-reaching effects upon her future happiness and health, that 1t IS almost criminal for a mother or guardian to withhold counsel or ad- vice.
 Many a woman has suffered years of prolonged pain and misery through having been the victim of thought lessness or ignorance on the part of those who should have guided her through the dangers and difficulties that beset this period
 Mothers should teach their girls what danger comes from standing around with cold or wet feet, from lifting heavy articles, and from over working. Do not let them over-study. If they complain of headache, pains in the back and lower limbs, they need mothers thoughtful care and sympathy.

PLATTSBURC
WON GAME BY
COSTLY ERRORS
Fairbanks Defeated BY

PLATTSBURG, June 30--It
was the case of the disciple sup
crceding the old master when
Cuddy Murphy, the former Dart
mouth star, was forced to bow to
the youthful Patten, leading pitch
er for Boston College, in the
Plattsburgh- st. Johnsbury base
ball game, by the score of 8 to 2.
Both twirlcrs resorted to the spit
ball delivery. 1t was Cuddy who
taught Patten how to throw the
moist ball, little thinking that per-
haps some day the boy would de-
feat him in a baseball game. The
game should have been Murphy's.
He twirled a better brand of ball
and had he been given any sort of
support he would have won his
game with ease.
Ponderous Cuddy Murphy pitch
ed his head off for Fairbanks
against the slugging Plattsburg
baseball team at the Clinton
county fairgrounds, yielding the
home talent but six scattered hits.
But the block Of errors of which
the Vermont ball tossers were
guilty offset his steady tWirling.
Plattsburg scored eight tallies
only one of which was earned,
while the other seven were hand

platter. Coach Hoernle's men got

inning when they slammed Patten

Capt. Carrigan's diamond stars
rolled up lead in the first inning
when Cuddy issued free ticket
to Malone, who logged along to
second via Hoernle's passed ball;

JOKER IN LAW BURDEN TO
AUTO OWNERS

The poor automobile owner,
whose shoulders are already round
with the burden of tax placed upon
him via his machine, will receive a
jolt when he comes to purchase the
privilege of operating his machine
for the year 1928. Ears of the mem
bers of the last State Legislature
will probably ring until long after
the last owner has purchased his
new license.
Little was said by automobile
owners, as a whole, when the Legis-
lature passed a law requiring the
payments of 25 cents per horse
power machine, although the usual
grumble was audible to those who
took the pains of putting their ear
to the ground. Members of the last
Legislative organization, however,
probably were not guilty of having
INDUCED in this pastime or they
would have been able to anticipate
the howl which will go up in De-
cember when the automobile owners
learn that, concealed in the license
measure is provision requiring
each and every owner to pay, in adj
dition to the horsepower tax, a
license of 40 cents for each one hun
dred pound weight of his car, this to
be gagged on factory weight. The
law becomes effective January /,
but all automile owners who obtain
their license in December for the
new year will discover at that time
just what the law means to them.
Owners of the lightweight cars, Of
course, will suffer light, but proud
possessors of the big buses will be
compelled to pay greatly increased
licenses.

SEES FORGOTTEN TRIBE
American Bird Specialist lnvades
Jungles of Nicaragua.
Gets Large Collection OF Rare Birds,
Beasts, Fish and Repkiles-Pene-
trates to Villages Of Sumo
Indians.

Observation-Disclosures Huber. as
sistant curator of the ornithology Sec
ton OF the Academy Of Natural Sci
ences. returned recently to this city
from hitherto little known regions of
Nicaragua, where he assembled q
large collection Of birds, beasts, fish
and reptiles, number Of which he be-
lieves have not yet been classified.
he also claims to have penetrated
to the villages Of Sumo Indians, who
rarely had seen a, white man. The
scientists specimens include 600 birds,
40 rare mammals and 1000 fish, rep
tiles and insects, all OF which will be
placed on exhibition in the local in
StitutiOn.
MY research work was done about
$50 miles inland from the Nicaraguan
coast" said Mr.. Huber. "We estab-
lshed our headquarters at a small
mining camp, whence we made trips
farther into the country. The aver
age annual rainfall here is lat inches.
From the time 1 reached the interior
until 1 left there never was a dry
article of clothing on me. The coun-
try is infected with red bugs, smaller
than 1eas, which burrow under the
skin and inflict serious wounds.
Il went up the Prinza Polka river
for $50 miles in q pitpan, an open
boat made Of hollowed-Out mahog-
any log. Then in smaller pitpan
assembled the Banbana river to Mimi
da. The district is billy and covered
with tropical forests so dense that 1t
is impossible to enter them until a
way is cut by Indians. -,
"The only inhabitants are a few
scattered tribes Of Indians apparently
Of Spanish and Miskito Indian de-
scent. With a body OF these Indians
as guides, I penetrated to certain vii
lagos of the Sumo Inmans.
1.-THE Sumo men are very skillful
hunters, but the tribe is rapidly be-
coming extinct. With all their ability
in hunting and their courage Of fac
ing wild animals, they are excessively
timid Of strange human beings and
will run away even from members Of
other Indian tribes. Miskito Indians
sometimes walk into their villages and
take anything they want without meet
ing resistance. The Sumos, number
ing about 500 souls all told, have the
slant, almond eyes Of the Chinese, and
their skin is about the same color as
that of a Chinaman."
Mr.. Huber had with him a number
Of dogs, two of which were killed by
jaguars. The scientist believes that
fully 40 per cent of the birds and an
finals he shot were lost, because Meth
er dogs nor Indians could make their
way into the jungles to the point where
they fell. He used dynamite to secure
his fish specimens.

KENTUCKY is POPULAR SPOT

If one doubts that Kentucky is a

Modern gypsying-with the COM
Portable motor replacing the lumber
ing, rickety camp wagon-would
seem to be the coming national sum-
mer pastime, if it does not head the

coming auto trourists spread their
stories of the delights and adven-
