Take 1t Easy.

DASE balls ancient axiom, take
D nothing for granted" holds
true for our Davis Cup cam
paign this year.
It will be time enough for one or
more of our bigger and more aristc-
cratic tennis clubs to hail the chance
to make up financial deficits, with 1884
Davis Cup competition at home, when
our boys actually get their hands OIL
the big bowl and its accompanying
platter.
This Davis Cup business Is all for
the great love Of amateur sport, of
course, but. you have two more
guesses coming If you think any Of
those involved is overlooking the
fact that the challenge round alone
means gate receipts Of $4,000 in
current times and possibly $4,000
in a boom year.

~ROSETTI has gone pretty well this
year, making brilliant stab every
now and then, but seeming to
have in the hot weather that fatal in
decision which Mccarthy says dlstin-
guishes the player Of Italian birth from
others on the diamond.
There is just little slowness-not
noticeable perhaps to the eye Of the
fan, but perceptible to the keen eye Of
the manager-which makes the differ
ence sometimes between an out and a
man safe on the bases. Two or three
of these a week bother manager so
much that he views with trepidation
every hit knocked down that players
way
Larry handles himself just a trifie
more quickly around short than does
Crosetti 1t was worth the price OF ad-
mission to see Larry and Reese working
in conjunction with each other when
the latter was playing second base for
the Yankees.
In one respect Crosetti has it on Larry,
for as steady batter he is probably the
stronger of the two. Crosetti, however,
has not fulfilled every expectation in
regard to his batting that was held for
him when he was a shortstop for the
San Francisco club.

K ators are giving the Yankees such

As for the Giants, they still have to
meet their most formidable foes in the
current invasion Of the East by the
Western clubs. Until they have finished
with the ST. Louis Cardinals and the

to say anything about their chances of

Picking the Winner.
IF you figure out the last three
year records Of Jack Sharkey
and Primo Camera, setting
them side by side, round for
round, their next meeting tonight
in Long Island City figures to be
as close to a toss-up as you can
get.
In the way Of actual performance
neither has been any devastating tidal
wave, nor yet any rip-tearing simeon
loaded with destruction.
It Is quite probable that the
Sharkey who fought Harry Wills
would soon have the Titan Of the
Tiber looking like a sponge dipped In
gore.
But the Sharkey who whipped Wills
is seven long years away from that
early promise of ring greatness which
soon began to fade and flutter against

School Grounds Project

Work, which will last eight weeks.
was begun last week on the fmprov-
ing Of the school grounds q. Rising
Sun. There are about twenty men,
four horses, two scoops, two plows
and two trucks at work on the job
now. This is a part of the Civil
Works Program which has employed
many men in the United States.
There will be a new playground
and athletic field behind the school
house. Shrubbery and trees will be-
planted on the front OF the school
ground in order to make it a beau
tiful part of the community. The
athletic field will be terraced SO that
the uneven land can be used. There
will be concrete road around the
school SO that buses and carr can 20
around the school without Destroy
ing the ground.

CHRISTMAS TIME
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Md.

Christmas time, and our thoughts
turn toward the little town of Beth
lehem, nesting cozily among those
old Judean hills, and to the sheph-
erds. who were keeping watch that
first Christmas morning on the
plains; and to the angel who told the
shepherds not to be afraid; and tC
The heavenly host and the song tina,
they were singing: "Glory to God in
the highest, and on earth Peace,
good will toward men,"
The only music of heaven ever
heard by mortal ear. And to the
Wise Men of the East who followed.
The Star; and to the manager cradle;
and best of all, to the Babe, the Saw
lour and Messiah who was to come
have often thought if the inn keep
er had only known who thc;. were,
the Star that memorable morning
would have stopped over his inn.
But he did not know.
Oh, if we only knew, if we only
knew,
What a different world this world
would be.
If we only knew and could only see,
That the time is short and the years
are few.
1t would make difference with me
and you.
The hasty words would be left un-
said,
And hearts would be lighter on 60
ing to bed.
Good cheer and comfort Tor one all;
If we only knew what might befall.
In little while we'll be called away,
And sleep beneath the shadows gray.
1t would make a difference with me
and you,
If we only knew, If we only knew.

TEETH AND HEALTH
BY Samuel M. Fink, ID. d. s.
FOCAL INFECTION

The majority Of infections Of the
body are due to centers of infection
in some part of the head. These
centers are mostly the cells and sim
ues connected with the ear, nose,
throat, tonsils, and teeth.
There are thirty-two chances for
infection from the permanent teeth
and twenty from the temporary
teeth. If the teeth and mouth are
neglected, you are almost certain to
have foci, or centers of infection, In
the mouth.
Any disease that is, caused by pus
may develop from the teeth.
1t is true that you cannot prevent
all mouth infection no matter how
hard you try, but you can prevent
most of it. Isn't it foolish to suffer
and waste health and energy from
assesses that you could have pre-
vented?
You might be naturalized in
another country and you might get
another wife or husband, but you
can't get another body. Take care
of the one you have.
e Q.-Please describe Pivit Tooth?
A Pivit Tooth is called Por-
celain Crown or Collar Crown. It is
an artificial crown made of porcelain
and metal and attached to the ma
tural tooth root by means of a gold
collar or band encircling the exposed
portion of the root and by post
that extends into the root canal of
the tooth.
