MARINES DEFEAT
COAST GUARD in
BASEBALL GAME
EXHIBITION STAGED sATuR-
DAY AFTERNOON BETWEEN
AGcREcATIoNs RESULTS
IN SCORE OF 1s TO o

On Saturday afternoon the Mar
ines defeated the Coast Guard
baseball team by the score Of 16
to 0. Shain pitched for the Mar
ines while Lila had the mound for
the Coast Guard. The Marines
played 100 per cent ball while the
Coast Guard team played listless
game. The pitching of Shain was
greatly improved. He allowed
but three hits Saturday. yet on
former occasions was knocked out
of the box.
In the second game Of the
double header the Coast Guard
was defeated by the LIBERTIES
BY the score of 16 to five.
The Coast Guard team meets
the Liberty aggregation tomorrow
afternoon at 4 o'clock, and the
Marines on Thursday afternoon at
2.
The Coast Guard players are
often put to a disadvantage by
one of their boats being called out
and taking some of their material
away. But rather than have a
game called off they get together
q nine of some kind and go ahead
with the contest--win or lose.
Such was the case Saturday.
They confidently expect to make
better showlngs in the games Of
the immediate future.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Looking at familiar things from
unusual positions has always been a
favorite occupation of ours.
Lying on ones back on the living
room floor, for instance. gives
strange aspects to chairs, tables and
other furnishings.
In the first place, by SO simple a
procedure. one turns the clock of
time back many years, and becomes
a child again. which Is always a good
thing for a so-called "grown-up."
Make, me a child again, just for
tonight, says the old poem. which
not one person In 100 knows who
wrote. (No, we do not. either.)
One can do better than that Just
by lying supinely on the rug. and
taking In as much as the eyes will
absorb for the time being.
What a queer thing the Windsor
chair seems, viewed from the bot
tom.
1t has a capacious seat, indeed, fit
to hold large persons who have
eaten not wisely but too well.
Surely rotund figures first brought
this style Of chair into being, and
the result was thing of beauty as
well as of utility. All good furniture
is SO. Today one may think of the
various periods in furniture as
having sprung out OF nothing. but as
matter of fact each one had good
reason for being, having been evolved
by craftsmen who combined use with
appearance.
One notes with satisfaction that
all the chairs. end tables and so on,
are finished underneath, although not
so we'll as the upper surfaces.
Who was it that first perpetrated
that libel upon modern craftsmen,
that they never finish anything that
does not show?
It is not true.
Here, from our upside-down position,
we positively assert it is. more or
less of a lie.
The ancient Greek temples, 1t is de.
clared, were finished on all inner sur
faces exactly the same as on the
outer.
Surfaces that met other surfaces
were as carefully chiseled as those
exposed to the eye. Modern workers,
the charge asserts, never paint a
surface that one must climb up a
ladder to view.
The underneath sides Of tables and
chairs. however. are generally we'll
finished, so that the cat need not
be offended by the lack.
A sensitive house cat. living one
foot off the floor, sees the house as
the .recumbent one now sees the living
room.
Crawling children, too, must regard
life from the same standpoint. Grow
ing up" undoubtedly, has reference
to the child assuming the upright
condition, physically.
If he grows into a really upright
young man or woman, he Is entitled to
the appellation "grown-up." How
many of us qualify?

Mystic numbers written in chalk
on the under side Of tables intrigue

Since the table in question did not
cost as much as 10 bucks Gron men,
simoleons, greenbacks, berries), the
chalked number must refer to some
thing else.
Probably any one engaged in the
intricate meshes Of modern trade
might solve this problem at glance,

Urges Better Shelter
For Farm Animals
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
The writer noted in your issue Of
the 18th that Mr. Thomas Of the
Humane Society has secured the
arrest and conviction of a colored
man for leaving a span of mules
unprotected at night. Good for Mr.
Thomas. 1t is fortunate there is
some one to look after neglected
animals.
In this connection, the mind Of the
writer goes back one year when one
night she was coming up from Ashe-
vile, n. c., over the Southern Rail-
way. She saw. in the cold gray dawn
of that November morning, unpro-
tected and unsheltered horses and
cattle standing stiffened and shivering
in the farmers pastures, with the
grass all around them white with
frost. 1t is pitiful the Humane So
ciety cannot reach out and intercede
for such as these.
Now here is where the farmer can
legislate for himself independent Of
Congress. He can make a law that he
will properly care for his stock, and
it will be for his own benefit to obey
that law. Neglected animals cause
loss on farm. They should be placed
in a warm barn at night as soon as
the weather becomes uncomfortable
I hope this article will catch the eye
of some farmer.

@. What is the difference between
a continent and a large island!-
S. o. N.
A. The distinction between a conti-
nent and an island Is primarily size.
A continent, however. also differs from
an island in it's structure. which is
that of a large basin bordered by a
mountain chain.
@. What Is the vibration of the
lowest note on piano. and of the
highest?-B. NJ. S.
A. The lowest note has a frequency
Of 27 vibrations per second; the high
est, Abs.
@. Are the locks at the 500 as long
as the ones in the Panama Canal?-
r. s.
A. The new locks at Sault Ste Marie
are 1850 feet long, while those of the
Panama Canal have a usual length Of
1000 feet. The latter are wider. how
ever.
@. Car you tell me whether cigar
cites were used by CubanS, MexicanS
or other Latin American people. either
men or women, as far back as 1867
II. H.
A. The Mexican News Bureau says
that the use of cigarettes by all Latin
American people, either men or wom-
en-. dates, much farther back than 1890.
In fact, it dates back to time 1mme-
mortal The ola, a corn-husk cigar
ette. tobacco ground up coarsely and
wrapped in the soft inner husk Of
corn, is used by both men and women
and always has been. 1t is not uncom-
mon to see them smoked by women
Of the upper class, but not in public.
@. Are powdered and confectioners'
sugar the same?-M. NJ.
A. Granulated sugar. powdered
sugar and confectioners' sugar are all
composed of sucrose (the chemical
term for pure cane or beet sugar), the
difference in the products consisting
only in the form of the crystals.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
BY FREDERIC J. HASKIN.

Powdered sugar Is made by pulveriz,
ing ordinary standard granulatel
sugar and is produced in varying de-
grees of fineness, the different grades
being designated by various terms OF
the trade, such as "Confectioners'
Powdered" Fruit Powdered" ''LOz.
enge Powdered" 'XX," Xxx
"XXXX," etc. Another type OF sugar
which is produced in the form of large
crystals 0arger than ordinary granu-
lated sugar. is also known as confec-
toners sugar.
@. Is It regarded as effeminate for
men to wear wrist watches?-D. d.
A. II such an idea ever existed, this
World War dissipated 1t. The wrist
watch was found convenient and
practical. Since the war. its popu'
larity has increased rather than di-
minished.
@. What regulations govern for
eign aircraft In the United States?-~
H. s.
A. Aircraft Of the armed forces OF
a foreign country can navigate only
upon an authorization order of the
Secretary of State. The civil aircraft
Of a foreign country may navigate.
