Costly Toys

The yacht Rainbow, built at a
cost of $500, 900 only six years ago
to defend the Americas cup
against Mr. Sopwith's Endeavour,
has been sold as scrap for one
third of her original cost. These
modern racing yachts are nothing
but speed machines. They can
not be turned to any other use
when their racing days are over.
OF Lipton's four first Shamrocks
the only relic is a mast now used
as a flagstaff at an American uni
versity. Every one of the modern
cup racers has gone to the scrap
yard. These ships we're not fit
for anything but racing, and their
average life has not been more
than three years.
1t was different with the older
yachts. Volunteer, which beat the
Scottish boat Thistle, was a
strongly built schooner, and, after
her racing days were over, was
used for cruising. Her life was
% years. More wonderful still is
the case of Amphion, a racing
yacht built in 1882. After an active
life of 80 years, in 1912 she was
turned into a houseboat.

A thousand times since, when cir

One Of the greatest American
women who eve lived started a ma
tion-wide peace movement 20 yea
ago. Thousands Of US who were
younger women saw through her
eyes a vision Of world peace; we
knew it might be made real; we
knew that all the nations could live
in peace with their neighbors as
America has for so many years.
For 20 years some of US have been
going about talking peace. Begging
that the unjust decisions and parti-
tons that followed the last war
might be gradually mitigated by the
European powers, that they might
come to see that friendliness is the
invincible weapon and that only

come evil in the end.
But we we're not strong enough;
perhaps we we're not wise enough:
we women do not even now. after 20

and America must lay down her own

ter into the hideous competition of
guns and bombs. War silences

We will outlive this war, and when

peace. Meanwhile we have to live
with war again. and it is for every

It has remained for Ford Prick,
Of the best officials baseball ever
knew, to supply the correct answers.
1t was no easy job since President
Frick had to look back through the
lifetime careers of a long, long list.
I happened to be with Bill Dickey,
Joe Gordon and Red Rolfe when
Ford put on his quiz-and none OF
US came within brassie distance Of
hitting the target.
Average Playing Lifetime
There have been leaguers who
knew only one year Of SERVICE
Frick said. "There have been 9TH
ers, such rs Ty Cobb, Pop Arson
and Jack Quinn, who hung on for
nearly rs years. But In adding up
all the figures I discovered the
average big league players career is
just 81 years.
Those who passed the 2O-year
mark include Cobb, Arson, Wagner,
Ruth, Lajoie, Quinn, Speaker, Cy
Young. and a few more. But the av-
erage span is 81 seasons"
This was a tri1e astonishing to
Messrs. Dickey. Gordon and Role,
who had guessed from four to six
years.
Question No. 2 is-"How much do
ball players collect, on an average,
through their playing careers?"
Mr.. Prick had the answer to this.
"The amount" he said, sis $780,.
900. This would lean around
$4,000 = year. Salaries have
ranged from $1,000 to Babe Ruth's
$50, O00-and it was Babe Ruth who
lifted the average far above old
levels.
This mark is well above what it
vas 10 years ago. It is far above
what it was 20 years ago."

The highest paid men today in

Until Ford Frick dug up the gen.

ever guessed that an 8h-year ball
player would collect $12O, 600 for his
work.
The highest payrolls today belong
to the Yankees, Tigers and Red Sox.
All three have such hea6iiners as

Controlling Toothache

When the pain from a tooth strikes the
most of us would go to most any length
to stop it; yet most of such aches and pains
are caused from decayed teeth and every
day we are finding more and more can be
done about this
Certainly it is time something should be
done about it. Right here in Ashe county
many young men are being declared unfit
for military service because Of their teeth.
A survey reveals that the lack Of the need
ed amount of sunshine causes decay.
But it is encouraging to note tWo-thirds
of the cavities and hence most of the re-
sulting aches and pains, that occur normal
ly in permanent teeth, can be prevented
by adding natural forms of vitamin D to an
otherwise we'll balanced, adequate diet, &C
cording to the reports of DR.. Ewing {. Nc
Beath Professor Of Dentistry at Columbia
University. He arrives at this conclusion
after complete study of ESQ children be-
tween 10 and IT,
The children, all of whom attended school
outside of New York City, were divided
into four different groups. One group which
received no added vitamin D during the
school year showed an increase of As newly
decayed permanent tooth surface per child
during the year The group which received
800 units of cod liver oil vitamin D daily
showed only 1.65 decayed surfaces Those
receiving 400 units of the cod liver oil VITA
min showed 248 decayed surfaces.
It was pointed out that since the child
rem were from 10 to 16 years of age and
their teeth counted as permanent, it was
reasonable to assume that the same results
could be achieved among young adults.
Vitamin D is the only one not found in
normal, balanced diet, since its natural
sources are only sunshine and the fish liver
oils
Isn't the placing of sunshine in the diets
of youth worth considering?

The responsibility of our present and flu

not play a major role in preserving the
democratic way, then you have already

lean people, following the World War, be-
came a bunch of gangsters; like, hogs,
grunting squealing, fighting for money.
Being of this nature ourselves, we natural
ly put our kind in charge of our govern
ment."
Perhaps we weren't as drastic as this, but
it is somewhat the truth. The best leaders

Civic Responsibilities

You have definite responsibility in this
community if you are to consider yourself
a citizen of these United States! Are each
of us realizing this truth?
Expressions of concern are heard for the
safety of the democratic way of life. These
fears are not without cause. Yet, if we
lose our american Way" of life, we alone
will be at fault
A friend of the writer, who served over
seas in the last great war with the Ameri
can Intelligence service, recently wrote:
"Nowhere do we hear one blaming one
self for the things that have been or are be-
ing done which bring this fear for our way,
or of the democratic way Of life, about. Yet,
in truth this country is about 80 per cent
what you and I have made it."
The truth strikes home that if our
american Way is losing ground, it is be-
cause you and have not practiced real de-
mocracy A democratic country will always
be what it's people make it.
