ONLY TWO HITS REGISTERED
AGAINST LEGION
TWIRLERs

The American Legion aggrega-
ton had on their batting clothes
yesterday at the Garrison and de-
feated the Coast Guard nine by
the score of 10 to 0. The Coasss
Guard was off form, while the
Legion seemed in ex "a good form.
Grey and Dey did the pitching for
the Legion, with Lowe catching.
Kean and Taylor did the battery
work for the Coast Guard.
The Legion are strengthening
their team from time to time and
expect to be able to stack up with
the best before the season is over.
Schedules will appear in The Cit
izen from time to time.
Practically all the Coast Guard
boats were out, carrying with them
a number of the service teams
best players, so that men had to
be assigned to unaccustomed posi-
tons on the diamond, thus seri-
ously reducing the usual efficiency
of the aggregation.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
RENDERS DECISION
tRy Associated Pressl

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Aug. IL.
LIN reply to query from Secre-
tary Of State Crawford as to
whether or not there is any pro-
hibition In the statutes of this state
that renders II unlawful for a
Common Law Trust, qualifying
under provision of Chapter 9125,
Laws Of Florida, 1923, to use the
, werd trust" as a part of its name,
Atlorney-General Johnson gave
the opinion that the provision of
Section 41sS, revised general sta
tutes reading .. and no COM
pany hereafter organized under
any other act shall use the word
trust as a part Of its name,"
does not apply to a eommon-law
declaration of trust, operating un-
der the provisions Of Chapter
ef25, acts of 1925.
Mr.. Johnson, said, however, that
eommon-law trusts could not do
a trust business as contemplated
by the act authorizing the organ
ization of bank and trust COM
panies.

Earthquake Waves.

When an earth shock occurs the
erect Is like the waves caused by
dropping a pebble in water, and so Is
similar in principle to the radio, where
sound waves spread in rings through
the air. Sometimes near the center
OF an earthquake these ripples are big
enough to see, an inch or so in height.
Ordinarily, these waves are felt at dis.
tant points far sooner than we would
expect II they travelled around the
earth, 50 that scientists know they
pass through the earth's core. They
do this with the speed we should ex-
pect If the core were solid steel, which
leads many to believe 1t Is just that.
Ir the case of very great shocks. how
ever. the crustal waves do travel all
around the earth. Thus a quake
measuring instrument will sometimes
record a shock twice. once for the
waves travelling one way around the
globe. and once for those going the
other way.
Now. what do you know about that? =?
Answers to Yesterdays Questions.
l. To tell If seeds are alive, float
them in water: those that float are
dead.
2. A dandelion normally produces
$50 to 200 seeds.
3. Boiling will kill seeds unless they
have been completely dried out.
4. Wheat and barley were probably
the first seeds planted by man.
5. Warmth, water and oxygen are
all that are needed to make seeds
grow. Soil and light are not neces-
sary.
s. Ferns. mosses, fungi and algae
and seaweeds never have seeds.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED,
Some Sensible Ideas.
E. C.. c. writes:

Mrs. T.. e. c. writes.
Il wonder if this might be Of in.
terest to your readers? Recently a
mothers club met at my home. One
Ing about would say. If the child
touched something that he shouldn't,
No, no, 1t will burnt
Now, of course, the child woulh
touch it and would see that it did not
burn, and he refused to mind her at
all. He was a very bright little fellow
and could have been taught so easily.
When my own little girl was small /
started to teach her right from wrong
and now we are never ashamed to
take her any place. / never moved
my books out Of her reach, 1 sat down
and showed them to her, and satisfied
her curiosity, but told her then that
she mustn't touch them. I never al
lowed her to tear even a newspaper,
but told her that it was naughty to
destroy things. ! took her hand and
put 1t close to the iron and to registers
and told her they would burn. This
was when she first started to crawl,
and she never went near them after
that. When she found pin on the
floor, and no matter how careful a
mother will be pins will drop on
the floor. 1 told her that 1t would
stick. and I stuck her with it ever so

children. That pin will bite or That
book will burn How can they expect
their children to talk correctly or for
that matter have any confidence In
what they tell them?
MY little girl has all the confidence
in the world in what tell her, and
when I ask her to do something she
knows 1t Is for her own good. She
does 1t. This might not work with all
children, but I think 1t would with
most normal ones There are times
that she Is rebellious, but don't rush
at her and spank her; I talk to her
kindly and explain matters to her, and
she soon changes her expression. Then
l sit down and try to think what might
have been the trouble. Usually she is
sleepy or perhaps constipated. Ny
heart aches for the little ones who are
spanked constantly for this and that
when so often the parents are entirely
at fault. hope have not taken up
too much of your time
Answer.
This letter needs little comment
from me. It Is too bad that more
mothers do not have time to sit down
and think where they" may be at
fault instead Of beating their children.
Time devoted to this will be saved
again In later problems of discipline
that can be that much more easily
solved, and the lasting benefits to the
child are inestimable.
