It is your constitutional right to demand of anything you take into your home, that it shall be what it was represent ed to be and that it shall give you full value for the money it cost you.
 Unless you .have confidence Tn both the makers and sellers Of anything that is offered for your home, do not buy it.
 You do not have to take any chances in these days if you take the time to read and think. You have right to be doubt iul ot any product in the food llne that is not labeled Quail. tN or with something that in. dlcates the reliability of its maker.

 Advertising is the best edu. cator We have in these modern times, so far as our personal needs go. It saves people wor- ries and money.
 It is a fact that an inferior article or questionable busi. ness cannot stand up under modern publicity. It does not take the public long to take its measure, and when that is done, 1t goes into the discard to remain there forever.
 The evolution that has taken place Tn the baking industry in recent years makes it possible now for the public to get what 1t pays for-Quality and Serv- ice.
 It is the one industry now representing big business, that deals with all people every day. and woe betide any baker who tries to fool the people.
 It is self-protection as well as protection to the public to keep quality in the foreground.
 Bread, for instance, is an every day need at practically every regular meal and often IS used for a fourth meal, as every mother knows with . family of hungry boys and girls.

SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION.
Athletics Facing Huge Task
To Run Yankees Out of Lead
BY the Associated Press.
YTTH AAt,14f;nC ~

BY the Associated Press.
"HE Athletics, it seems. stand in
imminent need of ball games
even though the obliging Yanks
did what they could to help
by dividing pair with the
Griffmen at the Rupert Stadium yes
terday. If the champions win two
of their remaining three with WASH
ington, which seems reasonable, the
Mackmen cannot invade the stadium
on Sunday in first place, even by
sweeping their five at Boston. Such a
turn of events would send the contend
crs into their big series In virtual
tie. with the Yankees holding per-
centage advantage.
If Messrs. Hadley and BraXton should
turn out to be as tough as they look
he Macks could gain first place unchal-
lenged on five straight over the Red
Sox. and could enter virtual tie in
four out. of fve-a more legitimate Phil
adelphia expectancy. The veteran
manager of the Athletics counts on
three victories in the four games at the
Yankee Stadium. and his immediate
objective is to jockey his team into
position where first place can be taken
and held on such performance.
Although the new 1oih icau 'iin
morning remained two games. the AS
were in a better position for the simple
reason that they trailed by only two
games in the losing column. Until yes
terdays even break by the Yankees. the
Philadelphia deficit was marked by a
difference of three losing engagements
and Of only one in the winning column
The runners-up were idle. while the
champions we're at work on the Sena-
tors.

To Obtain Edge Over Yankees

Moore came on and stopped the Ma
tionals cold. So did Thomas.
The Yanks flared up trif1e In their
half of the seventh when with one
gone, Durocher singled and the muff of
a fly ball near the foul line by Harris
gave life to LaZzeri. batting for Ben
cough But Paschal. batting for Moore,
hoisted to Goslin and Harris tossed out
Combs.
The Nationals began the second game
by filling the bases with scratch singles
after one was out Bluege, though,
drilled into double play, and then the
Harris horde watched the Yanks have
good time at Burke's expense.
-Four hits accounted for two New
York runs In round one. Burke famed
two Yanks in the second session. but
Collins single was Sandwiched between
Koenig's single followed the second
Strikeout. Two more runs for the home
side.
Singles by West, Rice and Goslin and
Judges inf1eld erasure were good for a
brace of National markers in the third,
but the YankS came right back in the
fourth to score twice. Bluege's wild peg
put Durocher on first, and Collins fol-
lowed with home-run drive into the
left-held stand.
After Dugan singled with one gone
in the Yank fifth, Weaver picked up
Durocher's tap and threw the ball to
center when he had chance to get a
force play at second.
That put Dugan at third, from where
he counted following's Rice's catch of
Collins loft. Dugan opened the eighth
with single and was forced across
the plate when Weaver issued three
successive passes after Durocher sacri-
feed. -.e..,
The Nationals kicked in with third
run In the ninth. Bluege's two-bagger
and Kenna's single put 1t over before

In a battle of the lower depths, the
Tigers turned on the White Sox to win
10 to 2 after the SoX had maltreated
the BengalS in q most shameful man
ner through all the early games OF the
series. Other clubs in the American
League we're unscheduled yesterday.
The Giants cleaned up their 1928 az
fairs with the Phillies by winning Ia
to decision for Larry Benton at the
Baker Bowl, his tWenty-third OF the sea-
son. The clan McGraw won II OF rS
% engagements against the tailenders.
but the Cards already have won 10 from
Philadelphia. with five more up 1of oe-
cision. The Red Birds are fine bet TO
take at least four of these. and the re-
sulting edge may represent just about
the margin by which they snare the
pennant-if they snare it.
The only other activity IN the Ma
tional League yesterday was at Boston.
where the downtrodden Braves turned
to slap the Robins by 8 to 2 and to l..
Even this dismal finish left Brooklyn
with Is victories over Boston in % en-
gagements. The Giants can do no bet
ter unless they sweep those four double
headers at Braves Field next week.
The Cubs and the Cardinals failed to
return to Wrigley Field yesterday to
play off their postponement OF August
80. but plan Is on foot to bring the
Red Birds into the Windy City on the
morning of September ID, when both
have an open date. A game would be
played Mt 1890 am, enabling the Cards
to catch the Broadway at 1910 pm, to
keep an engagement IN Philadelphia the
next day. The Cubs would be free to
board the Century at the same moment
and so arrive in Boston for a joust with
the Braves the following afternoon.

Jim Weaver, Criffs' New Pitcher,
Makes Hit With Gotham Fans

ut was the fifth inning of the Sec
ond game of the double -header be-
tween the Yankees and the Senators
at the stadium yesterday. The Yankees
had knocked Lefty" Burke out OF the
box and were waiting for another
washington pitcher to come out OF the
bullpen, which is located behind the
left-field end of the grandStand.
"All of a sudden there was a roar OF
laughter. A man mountain was coming
forth to face the Yankees. The nearer
he got the bigger he grew and the big
ger the laugh of the crowd. He made
the distance from the bullpen to the
pitchers box in about 20 strides.
LAS he stepped on the pitchers mound
the crowd gave another chuckle. So
did the Yankees. So did Bucky Har-
ris. Kenna. the Senators young catcher,
went out to the pitchers box to talk
to the new base ball giant. He did
not reach up to Weaver'S shoulder and
had to shout so that the rookie pitcher
could hear him.
Every ball player, even Bob Meusel
and Babe Ruth, big fellows themselves,
looked small compared to Weaver. while
most of them looked like midgets.
There was another roar when he
started to wind-up and let the ball fly.
He has tremendous legs and massive
hands He's the biggest thing in base
ball, as he stands 6 feet s. He is two
inches taller than Slim Harris OF the
Red Sox, and weighs $50 pounds.
Joe Engle recently bought him from
the Chattanooga club for the Senators.
AS soon as Joe got a peek at Weaver
he rushed to the telegraph office and
wired Clark Griffith:
"'Have bought a pitcher who is so
big that he'll scare the batters to death.
He's so big that he can look over Look
out Mountain.'"'

Harris Still Experimenting at Shorsop Yanks SlumPyot Due
STUFFY STEWART AGAIN
BOUGHT BY THE GRlFFS

A familiar figure will be observed
cavOrting about with the Nationals
next season when they start a brand
new bid for pennant honors in the
American League-nOne other than
that of Stuffy Stewart. second base
man Of the Birmingham club Of the
Southern Association and former
handy man of the Washington club.
the purchase of whom was an
nounced today by President Griffith.
"When Stewart was with us before,
IL looked as IL he was just little
shy of big league caliber," Griff as
serted in divulging the news. but
from the pace he has been maintain
ing with the BarOnS this Summer 1t
looks as il he really learned to play
ball while he was with us. Figures
up to the end of August show Stuffy
to be batting .327, his hits includ-
ing 4 home runs, 10 triples and Fl
doubles. and. as usual, he is leading
the league in base stealing with IS
thefts. believe he will prove
valuable man for US next season."
