For the boys are once more back
in the good graces of their sup
porterS, following that most i'm
portant victory yesterday over the
Boston Red Sox in a 10 to z game
which found Cronin's reserves
playing a big part in the 15-hit
attack that helped to win.
Today, had not the rain forced
o postponement of hostilltieS, the
same lineup was to have faced
the Philadelphia AS, who ar
rived early this morning to So
journ here for a three-game series.
Against the ambitious Mackmen,
Cronin had planned % send the
veteran ace, Tommy Thomas, to
the mound, ace in this instance
being applied to Thomas because
of his nine inning success last
week.
And, as said, the collection Of
reserves, including Cecil Travis
and Bob Boken, were to be behind
Thomas-hitting and fielding for
for all they are worth in the hope
Of bringing home another triumph
for the GriffS.
Jack Stone Likely
Because no lefthanded pitcher
is to be found on the AS hurting
corp, Dave Harris won't get INTO
this series unless he is used as a
pinch hitter. At least this situa.
tion promises to rule, if Manager
Cronin adheres to the right field
alternating system he announced
he would follow, when he made
those lineup changes the other
day.
This means that fans will see
Johnny Stone, newly-acquired
right fielder, in action. He will
bat behind Fred Schultz in the
hitting order. as per the arrange
ment Of yesterday, which found
the redoubtable Harris the man
directly following the cleanup"
luminary.
Stone, incidentally, promises to
hit a little better than has been
his fortune since the campaign
began. And for the simple rea-
son that he's a much stronger
batter than the records would
have one believe.
In his case, quite as in the
cases of his teammates, it has
been his unhappy fortune to get
off to q poor start at bat. Even
so, he's been able to master an
average Of .278 to date, which is
not so bad alongside Of the hit
ting percentage Of several Of his
brethren, who have had a diff
cult time trying to get near the
$50 mark.
Harris, Travis Shine
But back to the reserve play
ers, who performed so well in
their respective debutS yesterday.
Dave Harris came through with
two hits In four official trips to
the plate. Travis efforts reward
ed him with two hits also, his
double in the first driving across
two runs, and his single, in the
seventh, starting a rally which
put the game on ice for his
team.
Bob Boken gathered only one
bingle in four times at bat, it
driving in a run in the first in
ming, but he made up for this
lack of hitting by crashing
through in fine style in the field.
Twice he figured in double plays,
his first chance" being particu-
larly noteworthy.
It happened in the fourth in
ming during a Sox rally which
had danger written all over the
situation. One was out and Wer.
Der and Morgan had just singled
off Jack Russell, the pitcher at
the time, when Roy Johnson
rifled a low liner between second
and first.
Boken. going after the pill like
. deer. speared it with his gloved
hand and quickly threw to Kuhel
to double Morgan off first. The
play saved Russell and the game

Save Your Eyes
BIZ DIR. J. FRED ANDREAE
Secretary, American academy
of Optometry.

Man has Overcome the task of arti-
fical lighting until glare is greater
menace than insufficient illumination.
This is the comment of DR.. j. Fred
Andrea, secretary of the American
Academy of Optometry, has for the
pains we have taken in lighting our
homes, factories and public buildings
/ In primitive days, he suggested
man had no light but the sun and he
soon learned not to look directly at it.
His eyes were set back in his head
protected by bushy eyebrows. Heavy
lashes fringed his eyelids, and the
upper lid closed down further than the
under one came up. There was NO
glare from below, since the soft, dull
colored earth reflected little. A pro-
tective atmospheric haze diffused the
suns rays and cut out reflected glare
MAN overlooked these points," he
declared, sin making and using arti-
fical light, The ability to have more
light than our ancestors did and the
ease in obtaining it, has led to such
lavish use of light that now we are
faced on all sides with glare, an in
evitable by-product far more destruc.
tive to our eyes than insufficient light
could ever be.
"Most of the light that reaches oul
eyes today is reflected and comes UP
not down, constantly irritating the
eyes. 1t is impossible to avoid glare
The only remedy is to filter it before
it reaches the eyes. The newest pro.
duct of optical science is glare filter.
ing glass that absorbs all Irritating
rays of light, but passes all benefc
ial rays into the eyes. Any type Of
eyeglass lens can be made from this
new glass"

A passing tourist car in Gibson
City, stopped on Route 9 by freight
train, detoured by dirt road over a
rough Nickel Plate crossing; the rear
trunk bounced open, losing a few of
it's contents, which were picked up
by a passing citizen, says a page one
story in recent issue of the Gibson
(Ill.) Courier.
The next day came a letter from
the tourist, en- route through Iowa,
enclosing stamps and asking the Cour-
Ter to advertise for the missing ar
ticles, which were brought to the
newspaper office within three hours
after the paper was issued. The own
err lived in far away Las Vegas, N.
M, and a letter came several days
later expressing appreciation of the
Courier want-ad service.
Most valuable of the lost articles
were two tiny toys, one little bench
and the other a wee cradle, both of
wood and stained red. On the bottom
of the bench was written in ink:
"Mary Ann Seidner, born 1859; 1866"
Three-quarters of a century ago those
little toys were priced possessions Of
Mary Ann, who little later was call
ed by the master to the land that is
fairer than day.
When Mary AIMS tiny fners ca
ressed those toys the great sweep Of
mountains and desert of the West
were but sparsely settled. New Mexi-
co was not admitted to statehood until
nearly half century later. One can
conjecture that she might have lived
some place in the east and that these
trinkets of a bygone day were picked
up this summer by members Of the
family who were lured north by A
Century of Progress.

HOW FAST ARE WE RUNNING
INTO DEBT?

In view of all the fervid discussion
that is found in the press today in
respect to the rapidly increasing ma
tional debt, little late information
concerning that moot question will not
be amiss
Most of this discussion has to do with
the increased national debt during the
Roosevelt administration, so lets look
at the figures for the year ended June
30, the first full fiscal year of the pres
ent administration.
Receipts during that year were 49,
116,000,000. Expenditures during the
same time were $7,105, 100000 In other
words, for every three dollars which
were collected from the nations tax
payers, the government spent seven
dollars During July and August of the
present year, the last figures available
at this time, the government took in
$4,000, 900 and spent S930,000,O00 And
one item Of the receipts was s42, 1884, 900
in "seigniorage," or paper profit in the
issuance Of silver certificates under the
recent silver naturalization legislation.
What is the total public debt? On
September l, 1884, it was s27 .080020.-
074. A year ago it was 23,098, 703, 273
During the fiscal year ending June 80
last the public debt increased by S4.-
$4,000 900 That compares with total
receipts for the same year Of s3,l16,-
100000
The administration claims this is not
excessive debt considering the re-
sources of the country and that it will
be comparatively easy to retire it if
and when business is restored to nor
NAL conditions. OF course to do so will
mean greater taxation, but again those
who are back of the present national
program are of the opinion that nation
al taxation here is not excessive, judg-
ing from a recent statement of Harry
Hopkins, Emergency-E Admins
TRAITOR Mr.. Hopkins was recently asked
if it would be possible to raise enough
money by taxation to pay off the pres
ent debt before the next depression
arrived
Certainly and whole lot more will
be taken care Of" replied Hopkins.
II don't think taxes are stiff in this
country. The taxes on real estate are
stiff but income taxes are light COM
paratively. We do not know what real
heavy taxation is"
