Born HObOes
One of my best companions, a
real pal, true pal, is Howard Fox,
who later became my brother-in-

FALL

Stop Kann's!
That's the cry in the Depart

team is making a runaway race
of it and continues to win despite
what the other teams can do
about it.
Yesterday, 4-to-2 victory was
scored over Hecht Co. This
marked the sixth consecutive vic
tory for the 1884 champs. The
Hechtmen offered plenty Of bat
tie, however, in that it was not
until the next to the last inning

Frank buck" O'Nelll year. But the
men start today playing for 1885.
A price tag is on every shirt. and
any move that can be made to
strengthen the team will be made,
regardless of the individuals in
uolved. This bit of authoritative
information was gathered from
the straight-lipped Harris at
breakfast today.
Harris drew line from home
plate to center field, the back
bone of a ball club. Temporarily
establishing Cliff Bolton as first
string catcher, he named Buck
Newsom as the pitcher around
whom the hurting corps would be
built.
Buddy Myer as his second base
man and Alvin "Jakie" Powell as
his center fielder. Ossie Bluege
was named Professionally as short
stop. Coppola figures in his
plans.
Naturally, some of the men
now with the team will answer
spring roll call at Orlando. Har-
ris will not run amuck and trade
for the sake of trading. But the
survivors of this doleful year who
check in at the 1886 training
camp will be men who have
proved that they not only have
ability to win, but the spirit that
goes with the ability.
Pitchers Worry
Harris has ceased worrying
about the future so far as his
pitching is concerned. He knows
what he has, and is casting
about for requirements. But
where to find these replace
ments? That is worrying Harris,
and worrying him plenty.
It is amazing. Harris contends,
that out of the millions of youths
in these broad United States, so
few know how to curve a base
ball beyond the arc of a batter's
swing. He has contacted scouts
in distant corners of the land.
He has thundered orders to the
home office for pitcl ers, but the
silver-haired Griffith, reading his
demands, paraphraSeS Napoleon

create pitchers?"

said Friday.
DR.. williams pointed out that bet
ter health conditions will depend on
the value the people Of North Da-
kota place on personal and public
health" For the past two years they
have valued It less than any state In
the union, she said.
1T Is hoped they will make it pos
Sible to attack some Of our most
pressing problems: communicable dis
case control, sanitation. and better
health conditions for our mothers and
infants.
North Dakota has many advant-
ages over other states in the struggle
for adequate health protection. At
the present time we have the lowest
death .rate in the United States"
During the year major activities OF
the health department were:
Registration Of approximately H.
600 births and 5000 deaths and sup
plying Of hundreds Of birth and death
certificates to those asking them.
The work was done In cooperation
with the federal census bureau and
FERA.
Recording OF all cases Of commune
cable diseases.
Inspection of numerous municipal
water supplies, sewage disposal plants
and investigation Of all sanitation

Miss Ruth Wisnaes. Each county
now has q nurse performing this
service.
During the first eight months Of
the year no sanitary engineer was
available, because Of lack of funds.
Later, DR.. Williams pointed out, con-
ditions became acute and Mark D.
Hollis was appointed state sanitary
engineer.
A special survey Of tuberculosis dur
Ing 1885 is planned by the health de-
partment for the coming year, she
said.
"A conservative estimate Of tuber-
culosis cases in North Dakota reaches
more than 900 at the present time"
DR.. Williams pointed out. more
beds are needed for the active cases
and more help Is needed In locating
potential cases as well as active
cases."

Curbing Reckless Drivers
"Early in the spring, one OF my

I had my way it would be handed to
every applicant for a drivers license.
Here it is:
Here lies the body Of William
Jay,
Who died maintaining his right

He was right as he sped along,
But he's just as dead
AS II he'd been wrong.
"Too many automobile drivers to-
day, stop, look and listen only be-
cause there's something wrong with
their engines. They should have moro
faith in signs. One motor vehicle
authority know recently submitted
a unique and promising plan for
curing reckless driving. He would
compel speedsters to sit in their au-
tomobiles, parked in q public square,
with loud radio speakers broadcast
ing: Here are reckless drivers who
have no respect for their own lives

MAKE no mistake, it would bring
desirable results. But the tragedies
caused by reckless drivers have

Dick hadn't regarded her as q
human being since he had reached
the home stretch of his mural, but
now he dropped his brushes with
a swift little exclamation OF plying
surprise.
"Why, Ellen child" he exclaimed,

thing like that beforei"
Ellen relaxed into little huddled
