Preparations for the winter’s season of basket ball have begun in earnest at the Girls High school. The girls in the normal department are practicing regularly under the tutelage of Dr. Theodore Toepel, physical director of the city schools, and a wealth of clever material gives promise of a team that will make a good record. The big girls occasionally use a much smaller team than themselves to prac tice on. The smaller team is made up of little misses around ten years of age. Naturally the older players de feat their younger rivals, but in the more diminutive team there are goal who will some day move up to the first team. Then they will go to the higher institutions bye and bye, and somebody had better look out. There are two squads of players—the “girls" and the "boys”—and rivalry is keen for honors. The regulars who will make up this year's five have not been picked, but Dr. Toepel hopes to name them soon and then he will whip them rapidly into shape for their series of games. A well-appointed gymnasium has help ed the girls to develop their fondness for the game, and there is much in terest displayed in the big brick build ing at Washington and Mitchell streets when they set the ball a-rolling.

Oct. 29.—A1l young mothers in the city and all proud daddies are now grooming their babies for the annual baby show, turkey din ner and chrysanthemum show, which will be held at the Young Men’s Chris tian association building this week. At the show last year more than 200 bs’ bits were on exhibition MEAT PRICES DUE TO HIGHEB FEEDS Hotel Man Says Farmers Are Raising Less Beef and More Alfalfa. That the high cost of living in meats Is largely due to the high cost of feed ing stuffs, the enormously increased consumption of veai, the defection of the farmers from the cattle raising in dustry to more extensive cultivation of alfalfa and other veg “table tiroducts is the opinion of H. N. Dutton, president of the Georgia Hotel association. "The present high prices of meats are due to a number of causes,” says Mr. Dutton. “The high cost of feed ing stuffs; the converting of cattle ranges into many granges. The cattle ranges of the United States are de creasing with remarkable rapidity. The farmers in Colorado, Arkansas and other states that were formerly the cattle producing states have gone into cultivating their lands more extensive ly. Several years ago these farmers discovered that they could make money raising alfalfa, etc. "The consumption of veal in this country has increased enormously. This means the increased slaughtering of calves which constitutes another fac tor in bringing about high prices of beef because if calves are not allowed to grow the natural consequence is that the supply of’steers will become less and less with each succeeding year. "According to the year book of the department of agriculture the number of milch cows in this countrj' has not increased In the past five years. As the milch cow is the source of the sup ply of beef we can not look for any im mediate increase in the domestic sup ply. We, therefore, must continue to pay exorbitant prices for meats or turn to the foreign markets for a supply adequate to meet the growing de mands. "The Inevitable result of a continuance of an increasing population with a stationary food supply is obvious. "That there is a scarcity of cattle in this country is demonstrated by the fact that the present high price for beef on the hoof would cause the cattle raiser to market any he might have on hand.” 80 CHILDREN IN CHURCH ORGANIZED FOR THEM LOUISVILLE.

PITTSBURG, Oct. 29.—At the third general meeting of the American Iron and Steel institute here Judge S. H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel Corporation, stated that the Unit ed States was in the midst of an un precedented era of prosperity. He laid its cause to the recovery of the general public and the great corporations from the bankers' panic of 1907. Judge Gary touched very lightly on the interna tional political situation. He said In part: "We are in the midst of an era of prosperity never before surpassed, so j far as it affects our particular lines. These conditions have not resulted from the application of political policies or efforts but exist in spite of them. They ate here because nothing could pre vent. In the first place, for the last few years, following the bankers’ panic of 1907. there has existed a feeling of uncertainty and a lack of confidence which have deterred the great purchas ing public from entering the market, even to the extent of supplying their necessities. This has been especially true of the lallroad companies, who are among our largest patrons. Buy of Necessity. "In consequence, the necessities of the consumers have piled up to such an extent that they have lately been forced tu, increase their purchases ma terially. When, therefore, the railroad companies and others similarly situ ated commenced to buy, the general influence and effect were immediately felt, and buying on a large scale has immediately developed. "Moreover, the bountiful crops and sound basic conditions of the country have made every one realize more clearly than ever before that prosperity in this splendid country of ours Is to be the rule and not the exception, not withstanding at times we may be .sur rounded by adverse influences and un warrantable interference, which, in any ordinary country, would bring pro longed distress and suffering. "Questions of great magnitude and concern are at present agitating the minds of the people throughout the world. We may be stubbornly oblivious to some of them, but we ought not to be. We refuse to consider, or at least postpone consideration of, many of them. The questions are International, national and domestic; and they in volve the welfare of every one. We are disposed to wrap around ourselves the cloak of self-righteousness, or we proclaim that we rely upon the stability of government or the majesty of the law, and we consider ourselves safe, whether in our vision everything seems to be calm and tranquil or otherwise. People All Powerful. "We sometimes forget that It Is the masses of the people who determine final results; that they may establish and abolish governments; that they may make and unmake constitutions sooner or later that bring about condi tions satisfactory to them, even by re sorting to destructive measures. They have the might and they can deter mine for themselves what is the right. They believe In the sentiment, to quote from a French writer on French his tory. that “there is bigotry in politics as well as in religion, and it Is the worst of bigotry to reject change as something which is Inherently bad. Laws to be permanently useful must vary with the varying condition of man. "I am dealing in generalities, not in tending to be specific or to make per sonal reference. The thought I would leave with you is that there Is no way permanently settling any great ques tion involving the welfare of human kind except on the basis of right and justice. Position, wealth, influence, laws are helpless as a means of estab lishing a rule for human conduct unless supported by principles of justice and righteousness.” Lewis B. Lester. Lewis B Lester, aged 56 years, of Athens. Ga., died at a private sanita rium in Atlanta today. The body was removed to Greenberg & Bond’s chapel and the funeral will take place there at 3 o’clock. Interment will be at Ath ens. PAST FIFTY? YOU NEEOJASCARETS” What glasses are to weak eyes— Cascarets are to weak bowels. Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The condition is perfectly natural. It is just as nat ural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles. So all old people need Cascarets. One might as well refuse to aid weak feyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must be kept active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at fifty. Age is not a time for harsh physics Youth may occasionally whip the bow els into activity. But a lash can’t be used •'Very day. What the bowels of the old med is a gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic Is Cascarets, and they cost only 10 cents pi” box at any drug store. They woik • while you sleep. (Advt.)
