ALBANY BABIES TO MEET
AU6BSTA CLUB TOMORROW
Stop the “Hammer-Slinging” and Get Back the Old Spirit.
There’s Going to Be a Different Tale This week. Knockers
Not Wanted---Get Back in the Swim and Pull For the
Home Club-- Don’t Be a Quitter.
“Shotgun” Wallace will he back in the game tomorrow afternoon. Now that
the “hole" in the- team uT.I he stopped up, the Combacks are expected to
make some showing, starting from the Jump, and keeping it up. Ita not too
a'e <s yet o Jump into the swim again and win the second half of the
booth Atlantic League season. But In order to do this, the old team has cer
tainly got to gel busy, bht there is no use 1 ntelking in this manner, for the
ooya ;tre going to work, starting tomorrow and keeping after it.
Although Columbus did forge ahead of the locals, with all of the losing,
the “sues hgvs riot hesp so hud after ail, for by glancing at the percentage
conn in, one readily see that the o'd team ia still in the first division. At
leu*? the fans‘can t*ny* that Augusta's representatives with nil of thy game*
that we r e chalked up in the lost column against them last w-eek, they still
managed to stay in the first division.
DIFFERE NT TALE.
Stuting Monday afternoon there is certainly going to he a different tale.
nr there Well, lets find out the result of these games before further
commenting.
Manager "Babe” Brouthers has enough troubles iust at present to keep
him worried, hut on top of that.’H few khockers are slinging the hammer In
regard to the the team is “ta king on;" there is nothing to this wild
talk. “Babe" has them In hand, just trust it to him, he knows Ids business.
Instead of this knocking the fans ought to get together and pull for tile
club, its what might Tie called In a crisis—as to whether a showing is to be
made at the present time; not a time for the fans to fall down when a few
games are lost.
NO QUiTTER..
Of course its realized that the games that were lost in the past week
would have looked better In the win column, but however, they were lost and
th.'t is all there is to it, and for no other reason than that the winning
combination had been broken into—come, don’t be quitters; pull for the boys.
If Is easy enough to do tide when they are winning hut when they lost a few
games, pop! gnes the cork to the stream of “knockerltis” and the team, that
Is doing Its best under the circumstances, is hammered to the best of the
“hammerslingers”’ ability.
The Albany Babies meet the Combacks tomorrow' afternoon in the first
tilt of the series the locals need a little rooting to heat these fellows —lets
give it to them- dont be a quitter.

It's Now a Question As to Whether
the Augusta Baseball Association
Will Give Up the Franchise Monday
Here's *n office serret of the Au-
Susta Baseball A.nociat'on that 1b
Ju«t m:i<l e public. The office has
worried along with it now for some
while. The situation had to come lo
an end, and now it's a questibn as to
what the outcome will he. Monday
morninq will decide. Here are the
cold facts:
If Augusta finishes the 1914 season
someone is certainly coming to the
front by tomorrow morning. There
has been a sreat many games on Me
road at .1 great financial loss —and
now to come down to the real reason,
ilia money has all been used—the bo*
Is empty. It will take not less than
S9OO and $l,lOO to keep going and the
greater part of this sum will have to
he on hand by noon Monday. Now,
those who have kept baseball on its
feel in the past simply don't feel like
getting up any more “begging expedi
tions.”
Patronage Good.

that were offered in the Saturday

HOW THEY’RE HITTING
the patronage has been good, good
enough to carry the expense of the
operations. The schedule in particu
lar —railroad fares—have been one of
the other numerous things that ate up
money.
An example oT this is that when the
Augusta club had to go lo Jackson
ville to plav two days: This trip cost
the association S3OO. On one of these
days, the club received $75, and for
the Fourth of July, which we pooled,
sll6. whidh by the way has just been
received. While on the road the
guarantee of $75 a playing day. just
takes care of traveling and hotel ex
penses, but, however, leaves nothing
lor salaries, therefore, meaning that
the games at home must produce

Meeting of the Ginners of This County to be Held at Rich

Housewife is Urged to Use Short
Cuts in the Hot Summer Weather
\
Omit Dishes Laboriously Made and Served From Force of
Habit---Select Clothing That Requires Least Toil Over the
Washtub and Ironingboard to Make Presentable.
The housewife should carefully
study the conservation of her strength
and energy during the hot weather.
All the short cuts to housekeeping, as
well as the many little devices for
saving time and labor, should be care
fully considered. That is one of the
best heatures of the modern house
keeping. It teaches the conservation
of energy, of training the head to save
the heels; the adding of the element
«f inventiveness and scientific thought
to the problem of the home that will
save the wife and mother from un
necessary wear and tear.
Careful menu planning is one of-the
means by which Bhe may reduce her
labor—by omitting many dishes labor
iously made that are Tiften served
from force of habit. The mother and
grandmother probably handed them
down as prized possessions, and it
seems almost a sacrilege to omit their
preparation, even though it means
hours over a hot stove,

have in view is of twofold good to
those who follow farming as an avoca
tion.
The outline of the Association’s pol
icies are to cooperate In buying bag
ging, etc., and buy direct from the fac
tory in large amounts. To protect each
other In case of each man sending in
SI.OO those who do not contribute re
ceive no protection. To sell the infor
mation regarding the conditions of the
i otton crop now furnished free by t'.ie
ginners. To stop the cutting of bag
ging so that this bagging may be used
over and over and save about
$9,000,000.00“ each year to the farmers.
We are requested to ask each ginner
to attend this meeting. Thb president
will attend and lecture upon some of
the above questions.”
By substituting others of equal food
value, but which require less time and
labor in preparing, much time and
strength may be saved. A more care
luF study of food values will soon en
able even the busiest housewife to do
this.
•The same reduction of labor may
be made in regard to clothing. There
are so many fabrics on the market
that are equal in appearance if not su
perior to garments made from those
that often require hours and hours of
the most arduous toil over the wash
tub or ironing board to make ready
for a few hours wear.
When the housewife studies the ele
ments of the science of utility and
proportion that underlie even the com
monest household task she will then
be guided more than ever by common
sense, or any of the things that rob a
woman of her birthright of pleasure
and happiness and make her look old
before her time.

! The petition further alleges that on
| December 11, 1913, while Mr. Daly
; was riding on a car of the Augttsta-
Aiken Railway and Electric Corpo
ration. he (ell or was thrown from
said car, and received injuries from
which he died on March 3rd, 1913.
The policy was in full force at that
time.
The policy sets forth as an addi
tional inducement to policy-holders of
the Utopia Gold Bond Policy, that
they would return all premiums paid
in cage of loss of life after five years.
The petition further sets forth that
the General Accident Assurance Cor
poration. notwithstanding its solemn
obligation to pay to Mrs Daly, as the
beneficiary, the sum of $15,427.50,
after satisiactory proofs of death, had
repudiated its contract, and refused
to ray its obligation, and that the bad
faith in refusing to pay the policy
made them indebted to plaintiff in
the additional sum of twenty-five per
cent damages and $2,000 attorney’s
fees and costs of court.
The aggregate amount of the suit
is $20,997.50. The suit is returnable
to the Octoher term, 1914. of the City
1 Court of Richmond County.
