Groves popped to short. The Tribe looked as if they might hang on to this lead behind Bridge ford’s fine pitching but some bad er rors in the eighth lost this chance, Smithson got a life on Mellor’s error but was forced by McGeoch. Pem broke scratched a hit off Neirgarth’s glove And. then Claire got too anxious on Goldsmith’s roller, the ball bounc ing out of his grasp. James recovered the pelfott and then hit McGeoch in the back with it, allowing the latter to score the tying run. Bowes forced Goldsmith and Westbrook popped to Mellor. Both clubs golt runners .as fay as se cond in the ninth but it remained for the extra innings to bring on the drama. McGeoch opened the tenth with a double but <golt no further than third on two infield rollers and Bob struck out Bowes for the third out. The same Bridgeford .came within an ace of hitting a home-run over the centre-field fence in the isame inning, a Itall centre-fielder just getting his hands on the ball as it was about to drop over. Oliver hit a double for Meaford in the eleventh ibut died on second. Old Dame Fortune frowned on the Hurons again in this frame. Somers opened by rolling out but Neirgarth lined a double over the righft-fjeld wall. Mellor got a life when his* third strike got away from the catcher, Neirgarth taking third, With a royal chance to win the game Groves struck out and Rae’s hard lin er went straight into the right-field er’s hands. Meaford scored two big runs and won the game in the* twelfth. Smith- son got on base, when Bridgeford fielded his slow roller and then threw badly to first. Niergarth threw out McGeoch, Smithson taking second. Somers fielded Pembroke’s hit to centre and threw to third tin time to catch Smithson but Neirgarth dropped the ball and’ all hands were safe, Pem broke stole second and then' Goldie won his own game with a single to centre scoring both runners. ‘Goldie was thrown out trying to take on the throw Ito the plate, then flied to Cooke. The Tribe -made a gallant Save the bacon in their’ half when .Cooke^and, jJBridgeford ■_singled-, after, Peterson had been retired, Jack going all ,the way to third on the pitcher’s hit. James rolled to second, Cooke scoring and Bridgeford taking third on the out. Somers drew a pass and stole second, but Neirgarth lofted to the left-fielder for the final out.

The Hurons had won one marthon session from Hanover and came within a hair’sbreadth of winning this one on several occasions but it seemed it just wasn’t Ithe Tribe’s day. A large crowd saw a very inter esting game in which .the Knights both out-hit and out-fielded the fallter- ing Indians. 'With Smith, the club’s leading hitter away, Manager Hasel- grove was forced to shape up the line up considerably, Hal Peterson making his first appearance- of /the season and playing first base. Only Clair Nier garth was in his regular post, Fred Mellor going to second and James to short. Bob Bridgeford and Elmer Gold smith were the opposing hurlers and both were very good, to say the least. While the Knights garnered ten hits to the Braves’ five, Bob pitched fine ball, striking out fifteen, walking three and hitting two. Goldsmith had seven whiffs to his credit and allowed free ■transportation to four Tribesmen. The Braves had too many errors, seven in all, Bob Bridgeford having three which didn’t help his cause any. Clair Niergarth had a tough time on Satur day, too. The Knights’ great first- baseman, McGeoch, had a field day with twen.ty-4wo put-outs, which also gives you the idea that the Hurons weren’t getting the ball out of the in field. much. They weren’t! The visitors broke ahead with two runs in the third. Gill singled and took iSecoM OU a passed ball while Chapman "was drawing a pass. Both moved up on Fillingham’s sacrifice. The Knights worked a squeeze play successfully, Gill Scoring while Grov es was throwing out Smithson. Chap man then scored o’n a wild pitch and McGeoch. fanned.

The disease varies in severity from mild cases that may be missed ,to fatal attacks. It occurs all over the world and in this country is seen from June or July to October. It is sometimes picked up at health re sorts and is therefore called a ‘‘vaca tion disease.” It respects neither rich nor poor, those of rugged or indiffer ent health and may attack persons of any ag$ or sex. Hygienic measures, such as the pro tection of water and milk supplies have caused typhoid fever in well-pro tected cities to be an almost disap pearing disease. The older generation of doctors saw lots of it in their stud ent days when the wards of hospitals were filled with cases at the end of summer or in the autumn. Nowa days teachers in the medical schools* find it difficult to round up sufficient cases to demonstrate the, disease to heir classes. Man is always the source of the in fection either by direct or indirect contact—-indirect through water, milk, milk products, oysters and other foods as Well aS through the medium of flies, fingers, clothing and bedding. The commonest source is contaminated Faecal matter ultimately finds its way to water apd most water courses draining inhabited areas are thus con taminated. No single measure in reducing ty phoid fever on a large scale approach es the effedt of substituting a safe for A polluted Water supply.

Because of its buoyancy, ragwee'd. pollen is one of the chief distribufors- of hay-fever, says Dr. Bates, and a. wholesale destruction of such plants in and around the city would do much to make the air breathable for. chron ic sufferers. However, ragweed is not the only- hay-fever producer. Some exception ally sensitive noses will succumb tn an attack after a visit to a flour mill, or merely as the result of close prox imity to a bouquet of flowers. These, fortunately, are exceptions,, but many people are affected by the- pollens of birch, willow, maple, asp ens, poplars and other trees', and it is as well itio find out to which of these- one is allergic. The Health League points out that scientific method's now are available- by means of which/any ha'y-fevet pa*-1 talent may learn positively which pol- ‘ len or dust it is that affects him. Vac cines then can prevent his falling vic tim when his particular foe appears. Hay-fever, in itself, is not a serious- disease, but it may pave the way to sinusitis and other painful maladies. Dr. Bates explains in urging those- wiho are subject to it |to take early- steps t© avoid its recurrence.
