is expected to turn out to see what
kind of team the Blue Devils have
in the making for the coming cam
paign.
Little Wake Forest may prove to
be the surprise package of the
conference. It's no secret that the
Deacons are loaded with power
from end to end in the, forward
wall, and the backfield packs

RAMBLERS, SEEKING
10TH WIN, CLASH
WITH WHITEYILLE

After two weeks rest the Mason
boro Ramblers will meet the high
ly rated Whiteville All-Stars today
on the Masonboro home diamond.
The game will be called promptly
at $3.50 p. m.
Manager Frank Manor Of the
Ramblers said last night that he
hopes to have newcomer added
to the locals roster. The new
conner is Harg7ove Davis, former
Wilmington Pirate player. Davis
is termed to be well trained ball
handler and has batting average
vel. over the 300s. Davis who is
on his way home from the Army is
expected to arrive in time for the
game, Manor said.
W. A. Brown will again get
the Ramblers pitching assignment
and will be seeking his fifth vic
tory of the season. The little
southpaw has been defeated only
once this year.
With Davis added to the lineup
and Brown going out for his fifth
win the Rambler outfit is expected
to unleash a powerful punch.
Jiggs Powers, manager of the
Whitevi1le club, has not announc-
ed who he will send to the mound
but will probably call on Williams
or Harwood. Both hurlers have
worked against the Ramblers be-
fore this year.
Manager Manor announced last
night that the Ramblers have only
two more games scheduled for the
season

In this room several bookkeeping machines The noise
from these machines disturbing to the officers,
ployeeS and customers.
Experts called in to solve the noise problem The
experts said that because of glass; hard wooden surfaces
noise of the machines Then the learned experts went
away.
But R. Watkins the cashier of the bank, thought the
experts too easily His idea was that it takes
little time and thought to crack hard nut So he decided
% what he could do. He not engineer, and
knew nothing about the ntrcaces of engineering Still he
had idea He would give the noise problem whir and
what happened.
During his spare time he tinkered with the idea.
Everybody said he was foolish to waste his time
because if the experts could not solve the noise
problem then it pretty foolish for a cashier to
get excited over it.
He went to his nephew who had tools and work
shop the basement of his home, and here Mr. Watkins
began experimenting with his device to lessen the noise in
bookkeeping machines At last he had design, and he
and his nephew turned in and made machines that
Mr.. Watkins hoped would equash some of the noise.
He kept experimenting during his spare time, for
18 months Then at last Mr. Watkins had device which
he called the "Acouster'' he himself made up.
The machine tried out in the big noisy room. To
the astonshmen of everybody actually essened the vol

The experts who said it couldn't be done just don't
know what to think about it. Mr.. Watkins says, Il just
iidnt know enough to know couldn't be DONE SO went
ahead and did it. guess that is the way lots OF Things IN

RABBITS AND DISEASE

"Wild cottontail rabbits, perhaps
the most innocent-looking of all ami
mails, can be source of real danger
to those who handle Them" Dr. r.
H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment of Health, warns hunters,
trappers, housewives and others who
come in contact with them. "Tuler-
emia, serious and easily communi-
cable disease popularity know as 'rab-
bit fever is usually acquir G, d
through contact with the fur or un-
cooked meat of an infected rabbit
"In 1914 the counties of Maryland
reported fifteen cases of tularemia,
and two deaths from this disease are
known to have occurred. This is not
q start1ingly high incidence of rab-
bit fever, but it is enough to indicate
that many rabbits in this State may
be infected and capable of transmit
ting their disease to human beings.
"This threat of disease makes 1T
necessary to handle rabbits with con-
siderable care. Enjoyment of the
meat that so many people find deli
cious is not to be discouraged, but
certain precautions are advised to
make this eating pleasure safe.
"To begin with, it is good prevent
i've medicine as well as good sports
manship to take only lively rabbits
that frisk away from the hunter. One
too tired to run is probably sick
rabbit that can spread his disease to
human beings.
"Once caught, tke apparently heal
thy rabbit should be handled with
care. Wearing of gloves, preferably
rubber ones, is urged-especially il
there is even a small cut or scratch.
Hands that have come into contact
with fur or raw meat should be kept
away from the face, mouth and eyes.
All fur, refuse and paper that has
touched the rabbit should be burned
promptly, and the handler should
wash his hands thoroughly as soon as
the meat has been prepared.
Adequate cooking is also a need
ed safeguard. Regardless of the dish
being prepared, the meat should be
cooked at least twenty minutes at
boiling temperature to destroy any
disease germs that may be present.
These precautions should enable
Marylanders to eat their favorite
rabbit dishes without risk Of disease.
Hunters who take only kealthy-look-
ing rabbits and then handle them as
cautiously as if they thought them
infected can enjoy their sport and
their rabbit dinners without danger
