Cherry Ball League

Sturgeon Bay, Wis. - Present indi-

Door-Kewaunee baseball league, known
as the Cherry. league. At a meeting
held here yesterday, Algoma and Ke

which, according to baseball officials of

PENSION LAW
OF Printers Union Changed
Extending Age Limit

Kalamazoo, Mich.-Old-age pension
law changes were made by the annual
convention of the International Typo
graphical Union.
Under the old law member unable
to secure sustaining employment
could be placed on the pension roll
and be paid So week if he were 60
years of age and had record of 20
years continuous good standing
membership. A pensioner could work
two days week at his trade.
The new law raises the age limit to
IS years, and the good standing quail
ifcation to 25 years. Pensions will be
paid only in case of total disability
for work at the trade or failure to
secure sustaining employment in 9TH
er lines
The 65 years clause will be enforc-
ed one year at time, effective i'm
mediately. Between January /, 1927,
and December 81, 1927, applicants
shall be 62 years of age; between
January l, 1923, and December 81,
1928, applicants shall be 63 years of
age; between January |, 1929, and
December 81, 1929, applicants shall
be Ga years of age, and from and
after January l, 1880, applicants
shall be 65 years of age.
These changes were made on rec
ommendation of the actuary employed
by the International Typographical
Union. The convention called upon
succeeding conventions, until 1880, "to
duly consider the recommendation of
the actuary in acting upon proposals
to modify the pension laws until the
new regulations have been given a
full and fair test"
In support of his recommendation
that the pensionable age be increased,
the actuary said:

by the Hot Springs convention in
1907 the calculations which formed a

Something to
Think Ab0ut
By r. n. WALKER
DO NOT LOSE HOPE
By F. II. WALKER

EREQUENTLY, when the days seem
you like the storming waves of the sea,
trying their best to overwhelm you,
sunny-faced Hope is lowering near,
ready to rescue you at your bidding.
Thousands OF weary souls on the
very threshold of encouragement,
about to yield to the crushing weight
of their burdens. have at the last mo-
ment resolutely resolved to stand up
and make a new fight.
This resolution, in perhaps the most
trying hour-of their lives, marked the
turning-point in their careers.
They found new courage which
carried them on and on, carrying them
safely through their hardest battles,
where they fought inch by inch until
the shout of victory stirred their
hearts. warmed their blood and cleared
their vision,
From doubling Thomases they be-
came sanguine Pauls, filed with the
spirit of faith.
They saw new visions and dreamed
new dreams.
They had strength of their own in
stead OF that borrowed from others,
which through adv ersity they ,soon
learned how to use to. advantage.
Such are the men and women who
today are maN.ng a better world for
all mankind.
There is nothing too big for them
to undertake, no load too heavy for
them to carry, no troublesome hills
over which they cannot blaze an easy
path for the less confident to follow.
Leaders IN their chosen fields of la
Dor, they take part in the boldest and
noblest adventures. never growing
weary of well-doing, never faltering by
the wayside, never declining to lend
a helping hand to the earnest, strug-
Cling in their first effort.
They think, plan, organize, achieve
and create while those. without hope,
hesitate, draw back, afraid to step up
in the clearer inyigorating air and
wage the battle with alert brains hard
sinewed arms and hearts unafraid.
They turn stubborn difficulties into
willing servants. surmount impending
obstacles, write their names on the
eternal skies, and call Justify to the
new generations to grid their armor
accept Hope as their captain until the
end of their days.

JUDGMENT in FEEDING

Good judgment must be exercised in
feeding the pullets after they are ma
ture and are in their winter houses.
Usually eight quarts of hard grain is
fed TO one hundred birds a day. One
third or one-foirth of this amount
should be fed in the morning and the
balance at night. When about half
the birds are laying well they may re-
quire as much as ten or twelve quarts
per day. Sometimes, however, eight
quarts is too much and it is necessary
to cut down on this amount Mash
should always be kept before them in
hoppers or feeders

ANIMAL SANCTUARIES

Coming almost at the same time as
the announcement Of the establish
ment of a farm" in French Guinea
for the preservation of apes, etc, to
be used for medical experimental pur-
poses, the plan recently adopted by
the Belgian government for the genu-
inc protection Of Ngorillas ald other
rare animals in the Belgian Congo is
particularly acceptable In accord
ance with this project the Belgian co
lonial authorities are now laying off
large tract of land in the Kiyu dis
trict, not far from the southwest cor
ner Of Uganda, to be used as an ami
NAL sanctuary. The region selected
comprises an area Of about 250 square
miles of territory and enjoys a variety
of temperature varying from the mild
climate of the plains to the colder
atmosphere of the mountain heights.
incidentally, the idea of this great
animal sanctuary was first suggested
by Carl Akeley, the American big
game hunter and African explorer,
and it is in accordance with his ideas
that the plan is being carried out.

Contagious roup is probably easier

cold, with thin, watery discharge
from the nose and eyes. This secre-
ton has a peculiar offensive odor.
Inflammation sets into the nasal pas

and sneeze. breathing becomes noisy,
and if the air passages of the nose
become entirely blocked. they breathe
through their mouths. The birds soon
lose their appetite and become de-
pressed their wings dropping and
their feathers ruffled. The secretions
from the nose and eye change from
fluid to yellowish, cheese-like mass.
This grows rapidly about the eyelids
and the nostrils. One or both eyes

A four-hour day in industry would
be possible if workers were placed in
work for which they are best fitted, in
the view of Dr. Donald A. Laird of
Colgate university. He so told the
New York chapter of the National AS
ISOLATION of Cost Accountants. The
differences in human abilities are
amazing, he said. One coal miner
loads twelve times as much coal as
another, while it is not rare for one
salesman to sell $50 times as much
goods as another. A worker may have
low ability for one type of work but
high ability for another. Every plant
should be combed for employees with
low ability and those found trans
ferred to work for which they have
more ability, he advised.
