Fight Mob Was Ready
To Go Into Baseball
BY JOHN LARDNER,
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

NEW YORK. Aug. 20 (NA.NA).-
For time there, in caulif1ower alley,
they were trying to learn baseball
That was when Uncle Mike Jacobs,
the duce pronounced deuce of box
ing, was thinking of buying base
ball club. AS the deuce does. so
does the fight mob. There is always
a chance Of picking up buck or two
by sticking close to Uncle Mike.
The deuce spoke OF buying the
Brooklyn Dodgers. Immediately the
boys bought foreign Language dic-
tionary and began to bone up on the
national pastime.
''As far as I can make out" said
Dumb Daniel Morgan, the count in
this dodge is three-and-out instead
of 10-and-out What the he'll Is
the sense of that?"
1T says here" unused Mushky
Jackson. the deuces vice president
in charge of sparring partners.
that when the ball is foul it is no
dice. and the lowlife who is batting
returns to the plate and tries over
again. Whadda they mean, foul?"

Since the first international silico-

in 1880, marked progress" has been
achieved in the field of research, ac-
cording to the report; similarly,
"much has been achieved in recent

laws and regulations that have been
introduced to control dust More than
as countries now list silicosis in their
workmen's compensation legislation.
Cure Still Unknown
No cure for silicosis or means of
stimulating the elimination of silica
from lungs have yet been discovered,

prevention, they agreed that only the
elimination of dust from working
environments was effective.

mended only when suppression of dust

of Georgia and South Carolina clays
for ceramic use increased in 1889 but
they fetched only $3.50 to $3.50 ton,
about the same price range as paper
filler or rubber clays. These clays

but also, as recently discovered, up to

South Cardinals share increased to
over 20 per cent of the total in 1889
compared with II per cent in the pre-
ceding year. The Georgia output eX-
ceeded the 1897 record and South Car
olina mines produced much more than
ever before. Pennsylvania, the third
leading producing State, managed
also to break previous records and in
California the 1889 output was more
than twice that of any previous year.
Thanks to the better demand for do
mestic pottery clays, sales of North
Carolina clay, likewise, rose to an all
time high.
China clay was also produced in
Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Mary

ginia and Washington. Figures for
these States cannot be reported sep

FLEETING PROSPERITY

In the latter part Of 1889 the course
Of business was influenced by the out
break of war in Europe. 1t seems ap-
propriate to state that, quite aside
from the humanitarian and moral
issues, war orders represent only a
feeting prosperity and war business
is certain to result in a disruptive
shifting of our economy. War is GER
tain to cause destruction of capital
that can not be replaced for years and
of lives that can never be replaced.
The management Of the United States
Steel Corp. is convinced that the first
requisite for the attainment of last
ing prosperity is peace and the pros
pect of enduring peace.-Edward R..
Stettinius, Jr., chairman U. S. Steel
Corporation.

top-notch affair for the championship
Of the pottery towns. All teams wish
ing to play in this championship game
should write to the Sports Committee,
Box "a, E. l.. 0. as soon as possible.
Teams will be selected at an early
date.
Included in the letter should be the
record over the past year, outstanding
players, etc.
The transportation committee, under
P. X. Calhoon, is busy with schedules
and rates. This is always one of the
hardest problems to solve before the
annual picnic, but everyone can be as
sured that plenty of busses will be
provided for, rates will be lower than
cost and the schedule will fit the needs
of the potters and their friends.
1t certainly is not too early to take
a glance at your dues book to make
certain that all is in order. The draw
ing, which is restricted to those able
to show dues book in perfect order,
is the most popular feature introduced
the past few years and certainly will
be continued.
The tap dancing contests are an
other excellent feature which is COM
paratively new. 1t too will be con-
tinued and blank will soon be seen
in the Potters Herald This must be
filled out and mailed to the committee
before the picnic.
In constant effort to make each
succeeding picnic better than those
that have set records before, the COM
mttee is always looking for new fea-
lures, new sporting events and new
ideas of all kinds. If you have any
especially in the sports field, why not
send a card to Box "a? 1t is not guar
anteed thet the idea will be used, be-
cause many have been tried in the past
without success, but you are assured
the idea will gain hearing.

Do You Read Labels Critically?

Do You Read Labels Critically?
Foods that come to you labeled as
cure-alls or miraculous concentrates
of health and energy usually fail to
live up to their boasts.
Quoting, facts from the Depart
ment's yearbook, we point out the
dangers of being taken in by false
claims about "health foods"
Don't believe all you read about a
perfectly balanced food or energy
food,' or Health concentrate There is
no such thing as any single food that
can give you well-balanced diet.
Only a well-planned diet of several
foods can do that.
Energy foods-such as sugar
starch, and fat-contain lots Of cal
ories but do not necessarily give you
needed vitality, strength, and pep
Balance these with foods like green
vegetables, eggs, milk, meat.
Don't be fooled by the words acid
acidosis, acid stomach, or acid sys-
tenn put in big letters in an ad or or
a label. Acidosis is rather rare con-
ditioh of the blood. Normally healthy
persons can count on their own sys-
tenn taking care of excess acid or ex-
cess alkali.
Every normal stomach is acid.
That helps digest food properly. Wher
there is too little or too much stomach
acid, you should see your doctor
Don't rely on new strange diet, some
digestive remedy, or "a relief for acic
stomach
Likewise, look with suspicion on any
one food or diet claimed by quacks tt
cure arthritis, kidney trouble, higf
blood pressure, or other chronic
diseases.
If you like food combinations-likt
protein and starch, or fish and milk
or cherries and milk-then eat them
Nutritionists have found no evidence
that there is any such thing as {
wrong combination Of good foods.
Your best key to health is a well
balanced diet of good, nutritious foods

Removing Spots From Tables
If the surface on your dining room
table is getting white and hazy il
spots it may be that the shellac tinisl
has been spotted by water.
One disadvantage of shellac is tha
it will water-spot. Experts in the For
est Service say that you can5often re
move spots on shellac by rubbing
them lightly with soft cloth moist
ened, in mixture Of half water an,
half denatured alcohol. Sometime
rubbing the spots with spirits o
camphor will remove them
If you must refinish the table, al
oil finish is best-particularly for
surface that may be easily scratches
or spotted by water or hot dishes
