Millions of fans will never forget the thrill of Barney's re turn to form after-having been beaten twice previously. There was contrast to this In 1925 when Johnson,' after twice beating the Pittsburgh Pirates, found himself unequal to the task of holding them at bay In the sev enth and last game. He was bat tered into defeat by such young er stars as Klkl Cuyler In the mud and gloom of Forbes Field but a heroic figure to the last.

(AP) A customs sleuth with only one eyebut an unusually keen sense of smell today led his colleagues to a cache of 15,999 ounces of opium that had been concealed in tn anchor chain locker of - the Dollar, liner President Harrison. ; The officers "at, first estimated the i seizure, said to be the largest opium confiscation ever made at an eastern port, at 3,000 tins, but a later check cut the total to zees. The drug.', valued at about f 1,000,000 bootleg prjees, was seized yesterday after the liner had docked at Jersey City from a trip around the world. . She had touched at Shanghai and Hong Kong- and the ctwtoms authori ties, who quickly, decided thai none of her officers knew, any thing of the contraband's presence aboard, held the .opinion that the opium had been smuggled Into the locker while the ship anchored at a Chinese port. The Dollar Steamship company. operating the vessel, was, ordered not to let her sail. for a foreign port-pending tiling ot a $400, 000 bond.

Wring i i i -if. o 1 When the wringer was taken off the latest Easy Washer, it was because bet ter methods of extracting water from clothes had been found. The new method which employs, centrifugal "force has these advantages over the old: It takes out more water than wring ing does. It puts no strain on fabrics; does not crack silk or rayon garments. It cannot break buttons, nor Injure hooks and fasteners. It does not stretch of dis tort woolen garments. it leares Clothes erenly damp and free from hard creases. It makes dry ing much quicker, it makes ironing easier. its operation is entirely automatic and without an exposed part. It Is safe! - Not the most meddlesome child, nor the most negligent grownup can be harmed by the new Easy Washer. There are still Easy Washers with wringer attachments. - They are good, efficient! machines, too. Their wringers are equipped with every known safety device. ! The rollers are of deep, pliable rub ber especially designed for the protec tion of the operator. But the. fact re mains that wherever there are mechanl- - cal wringers there is also chancej- Where Easy Washers are concerned, the choice reveals this significant tact: - Eight out of ten Easy Washers sold today are of the improved type the wringerless, damp-drying type which saves time, saves strength, saves clothes and saves worry. ' "V v For homes without electricity the new Easy is furnished with a built-in 4cycle gasoline, motors . Wringerless washing means damp-dry clothes without effort . . . without" de lay. .. without risk t The day of slow, ly feeding clothes Into a wringer plcce-by-plece ' and again and again- Is swiftly passing. With the new Easy Washer an enclosed compartment re places the wringer. It takes a whole batch of clothes at one time and whirls out all the water In leas than two min utes. All you do Is more a lever. The clothes are left so erenly dams yon can hang them Indoors. . " The hems and seams will not drip. So much mere, water is taken front the . clothes, in the Easy Damp-Dryer that, drying time is greatly shortened. .
