FACTS ARE GIVEN ON SCHOOLS AND • SPORJSOUTLAYS Amounts Spent for Baseball and Fights Pointed Out. With the close association existing between athletics and schools, the Better Schools League, Inc., of Chicago has issued a bulletin in which it presents a number of facts concerning both, for comparison, ‘‘lt is a fact,” the bulletin reads, , “that the nation’s expenditure for spectacular sports makes the outlay for education look insignificant. We have recently completed the World Baseball Series which approached a million and a quarter gate receipts; our last big prize fight, two million dollars. This latter figure is but a fraction of the cost of the fight when the other expenses of the fans are estimated.

A Friend’s Advice Made a New Man

Mr. E. A. Schumacher, Brooklyn, writes; —‘'For years I was suffering from indigestion and constipation. One day a friend of mine advised me to try Carter’s Little Liver Pills. They have made anew man of me. I certainly can recommend them to anyone suffering in the same manner.” Carter's Little Liver Pills are a purely vegetable laxative. They do not contain calomel, mercury, mineral salts or any injurious habit forming drugs. They are perfectly safe for every member of the family. Druggists, 25 & 75c red pkgs. —Advertisement.

ed a total of thirty-nine minutes, and yet in this country we spend but a billion and a half dollars yearly to train 23,000,000 boys and girls for a fight that lasts an average approximating thirty-nine years.” Dealing in relative values, the league has made the following newspaper comparisons, based on the increase of news devoted to sports: Increased Hales “A middle-western metropolitan newspaper sold 50,000 more copies the morning after the DempseyTunney fight than it did the morning after the election, Nov. 2. Sport news is, therefore, looked upon as a matter of great importance by the newspapers, and, based upon public demand, naturally so. Asa specialized subject it increasingly outranks the space of any other department in the day’s news. “When the Corbett-Sullivan fight took place in 1892 a newspaper not overly devoted to sports printed more than seven columns about it during the two weeks immediately preceding the contest. In 1923, for a like period previous to the Demp-sey-’Flrpo battle, the same paper used thirty-eight columns. In the Dempsey-Tunney fight this year the same paper used ninety columns. “No process of thinking can lead us to conclude that education has gained a corresponding emphasis. Nor will it, until we have a shifting of demand on the part of the public.”

When sirenbrands try to flirt, I just give them the icy stare. I know what I like in a pipe, and what I like is Prince Albert! The instant you break the seal on the tidy red tin and get that wonderful fragrance of real tobacco, you know you are in for a pipe-treat. Your mouth fairly waters for a taste of tobacco that smells t> as good as that. Then you load up and light up—ah! . • ,

I wish to leave this world with i clean slate.”

Cool. Sweet. Fragrant. Old words, I’ll admit, but you get a brand-new idea of how much they can mean in a pipebowl packed with P. A. Maybe you’ve always thought such pipe-pleasure was "just around the corner.” Try a load of Prince Albert and turn that corner! Get a half-nelson on the pipe-joy that’s due you. Before you do another thing, buy a tin of Prince Albert and tuck a neat wad into your pipe. Notice how mild it is, yet how delightfully full-bodied. Here’s a smoke that you can pal around with, morning to midnight.

CHANGING PARK NAMESOPPOSED Board President Does Not Like Agitation. Names is names, and they should stay put. That was the reaction of John E. Milnor, park board president, concerning the agitation to change the names of £ity parks that began when former Mayor Lew Shank flecreed that "Riverside Park should be called Tom Taggart Park. "People always will call It Riverside Park, through natural habit,” Milnor said. Recently Irvington residents persuaded the park board to return to Ellenberger Woods as the name of the park formerly called Jameson Park. However, today sees the budding of movements to change two additional names, one to call a park Charles W. Fairbanks Park, in honor of the former Vice President, and another sponsored by city council President Boynton J. Moore to change the name of Kessler Blvd. to Bookwalter Blvd., to honor the late DON'T LET A COUGH OR COLD'GO DOWN' If you let a cough get down Into j your bronchial tubes or lungs, it stops being merely a nuisance and becomes a real danger.
