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. • Batting G.

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. While the club has been at home The Herald’s Bargain Page A New and Convenient Plan That Will Save the Shopper Money—Read a Description ot Each Week’s Otterings In Iwt Friday’* issue The Herald pointed for the first time a page of advertisement* devoted entirely to bargain* Each of the ftteen merchants whose advertisements appeared on the page offered to the public a variety of marked down below cost red hot bar gain*. anyone of which wa* well worth the time and car fare to go after. Did you «ee this page of real values? H not. then you missed a chance to reduce the co»t of living. Tor at least one week. The Herald’* Bargain Page will be continued evgrv Friday. I.ook for K. If you don’t you will be the loser. Here are some of the good things that were offered in the Saturday bargain page of last Friday: bVhneiderTl Department Store of fered for Saturday only. Palm Beach Suit* the SBOO kind, for $4.00, and all of their straw hats, for men and boys, for 25 cents eaca. Castleberry and Wilcox made a big reduction In butter, eggs and lemon*. L. P Speth Viade a reduction way below coost, in a variety of articles. Walk Over Boot Shop reduced their shoes from the regular price, $3.95 to City Council To Consider The Dog Ordinance Again Monday Tp Have Regular Monthly Meeting Tomorrow Afternoon. , Matter of Fire Engine Equipment for Sixth Ward to Come Up. , Clt> Council will have It* regular meeting on Monday afternoon when a number o' matter* oT Importance will b« considered The dog ordinance which was n tioduced by Councilman T. \V. Pil cher some time ago and which was carried over from tne last meeting of council, will come up again tc*»nrrow, but in a somewhat modified form Dog*, under the new terms of tr or dtnanc*. wsll be allowed on tne ctreet* without being muxxled or tv 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 $1,750 a, manta for salaries alone. Well, that’s about the size of the situation and if someone does not come to the front—away goes base ball for Attgusta. $2.95. Hill Ice Cream offered on Sunday only, to sell their 90 cents cream for Jo cents half gallon. Economy Shoe offered their $2.50 men’s oxfords for $2.35. McElwei?, Thomas Dry Goods Com pany reduced their price about one half on a number of articles. Golden Brothers agreed to sell hats tor $1.98. some of which formerly sold Tor sl2 50. Master and Agee Comrany sold shoes on Saturday for SI.OO, that for merly sold for $4.00. Hughes Hat Shop rut the price of all their trimmed hats one-half. Kenny’s Tea Store sold Balter’s high-grade chocolate, the refwilar 50 cents kind, for, 3 pounds for SI.OO. Bohanon Stud'o made the price on their $4.00 photographs s2s 00 for Sal uriTav only. Maxwell Brothers reduced the price on their entire stock of refrigerators 50 per cent. Space won’t permit us to go Into further detail regarding the wonder ful values offered. Be sure that you read The Herald's Saturday Bargain Page next Friday. by a leash when they are properly registered and are wearing a tag. There Is certain to he a discussion in council over the purchase of fire engines for the Sixth Ward fire sta tion A* i<ortlon of the fire comni*.- tee favors the Da France engine, while another portion favor* the Seagraves. ■lus* what will be the result when the matter is carried to the floor of coun cil cannot be forecasted.

The following announcement has been received in Augusta from the Ginners’ Association, which has head quarters in Memphis, Tenn., relative to a meeting of the ginners of Rich- county to be held at the court Rouge on August 30th fnr the purpose of forming a branch of the Ginners’ Association: The ginners of this county will meet at the court house at Augusta, to con sider the advisability of forming a branch organization of the Ginners’ Association, which is located at Mem phis, Tenn.

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, Widow of Late Jas.
