THE FLORENCE TIMES WIM,
BRING TWO OF THE BIG LEAGl'E
TEAMS THERE ON
APRIL 8th
Ty Cooc of \\\ *'d\vide fame ad
Hank Gowdy to bo seen in action on
Florence Diamond.
The Florence Daily Times takes
nloo^iivo in .innnnncinc that it has
arranged for the appearance in Florence
on the afternoon of April 8, of
the Boston National and Detroit American
league base ball clubs in an
exhibition game. These arrangements
were concluded with a view of giving
the lovers of base ball in Florence
and surrounding country an opportunity
to enjoy a genuine game of
league baseball, with Ty Cobb and
Hank dowdy in action. This is easily
the biggest base ball affair ewi
staged in this cit\ an! it is t!v> expectation
of the Time.- 'hat t : attendance
will break all piv\ ious local
baseball records. Tb game vii!
be played at The Pee Dee fair
grounds park.

usual position n the Detroit outfield
and when ever Cobb is in the lineup
there i> sure to be something doing
almost any minute. Then there is
Hank Gowdv, whose wonderful prow
ess with the bat in that memorable
world's series of 1914 is not forgotten.
Hut Gowdv has a more recent
claim to fame for he was the best of
all the big league players to see overseas
service and for more than 18
months he was on the other side, rising
to the rank of color sergeant
with the gallant Rainbow Division.
'Hie third of this great trio of stars
is Rabbit Maranville, the diminutive
and peppery shortstop of the braves,
easily the best shortstop in the game
today as well as about the smallest
player in point of inches who has
ever made good in the company of
the top notchers.
The contract calls for the appearance
or all of these stars and in addition
will come to this city all of
the other players of the two teams,
regulars and rookies alike, making
altogether a party of over 70 ball
player^ to say nothing of managers,
attendants and a perfect horet of
newspaper men who are covering
this tour of the two clubs for the
Boston and Detroit newspapers. It
promises to be one of the biggest
days this place has ever seen.
Four special Pullman cars will be
used by the Boston National and Detroit
American league base ball clubs
ia transport to this city the 70 odd
players who vrill visit this city on
the 8th of April, 1919 for the game
that is to be played here on that day
between these two clubs. The cars
were chartered to be used, by the
i-arty tie time the two team-;
leave Macon, Ga., on Sunday afternoon,
April 6th until they part company
at Staunton, Va., on the night
? of Wednesday, April 16th. In the
mean time these Pullmans will be
really the home of the players for it
was found absolutely impossible to
secure suitable hotel accommodations
in any of the places for the entire
party and it must be borne in
mind that there are others who will
visit this city in connection with the
game in addition to the players of
the two teams.
In the first place there are the two
managers, each of whom has one of
the few much covered rooms of the
Pullmans, George T.Stalling, who has
borne the title of the Miracle Man
of base ball ever since he won the
v/orld's series with his Braved in
four straight games?a performance
never since equalled?is one of the
managers and the other is the ever
genial Hughey Jennings whose antics
on the coaching lines have been
? o often careealure in the metrololitan
papers. Staliings and Jennings
will fight out this series of exhibition
games with as much earnestness
as if a pennant and a championship
was involved, for with each
club representatives of each newspaper
.outfits home city and the fans
"up" North" are watching the result
of these games with keenest interest.
Not only is the appearance of such
men as Ty Cobb, Hank Gowdy, Rabbit
Maranville and others guananteed
but each team will use its first string
pitchers in order to have any possible
advantage. With each manager

To See Soldiers in Actual Combat
Through Movies '
That there is no make-believe, that
the "actors'* actually bled and died,
is what makes "The Price of Peace"
nmvie, uhich will be presented by

lx>an Campaign, one oi the greatest j,
of motion picture spectacles.
While the men on the battle front
in France were driving steadily towards
the Rhine there were camera 1
men at work, photographing some j
times from an aeroplane flown dangerously
low over the lines, and *
again from advanced camouflaged 1
points. To get pictures from an aer- t
oplane at a low altitude it was nec- r
essary very often to fly through a
barrage and in a straight line, becoming
consequently, an excellent '
target for the German aviator who r
had a mission over the American
lines.
Under such difficulties five thousand
feet of battlefield reality has j
been photographed and the people *
all over the Fifth Federal Reserve t
District will have an opportunity to 2
see actual fighting. The photographic
work on "The Price of Peace" was j
done by the Signal Corps of the >?
United " States army. One camera t
man was killed while on the work. t
Deeds of exceptional courage in ^
action, for which men in the service
of the army and navy received dis- i
tinction are features of "The Price;
of Peace." In many cases men who 1
received decorations are featured ]
and the incidents in which these me" <
distinguished themselves are repro- '
duced on the screen.
In "The Price of Peace" the spec- 1
, tator sees the American soldier from the
time of his enlistment until he (
| crosses the Rhine. It shows him in j
the training camp; in the act of em
1 barkation; enjoying his soldier j
i amusements on shipboard, and his <
, debarkation at a port in * France, j
< Then the "doughboy" is seen in the .
trenches ready to attack. He is seen j
! going over the top; then in the hot-|?
i test of action. When he falls there
| is no pretending. The trench life ]
read about, the mud and hardships
he gladly bore for peace, will be 1
shown through the absolute reality j <
of this picture. ]
"The Price of Peace" will show i,
the public why it bought Liberty i
Bonds and why it is going to buy j
j more. It will show that though the j
work of the soldier is done, the work j;
of the people at home is not, and it 1
will maJte them eager to lend to the 1.
government again to show the re- ('
turning soldier that they are good i;
soldiers also.
This great mc'ion picture has'
never been public';/ shown. The material
it contains has been held back
by the War Department until now,
and the Treasury Department has
exclusive use of it for the Victory
Liberty Loan campaign. it is saiato ,
be the greatest p;cture ever made,
and has been va'uod hv one New
York producer at more than$ 250,000.
j The man who yo'ps that the world
has given hin a hi m deal is usually
. the same fellow who was too lazy
to cut the cards.

W. S. White, a well known mer hant

his remarkable statement regarding
lis experience with Tanlac:
"Most everybody coming into my

: am iooking, and no wonder, for I
iave gained twenty-five pounds in
ictual weight since I began to take
ranlac. For months I have been in a
errible run down condition and had
10 appetite or energy. I fell off in
veight and got so weak until I could
lot attend to my business. I was 1
lervous and dizzy and took no intersst

about four years ago with kidney
complaint and it worried me a lot I
had a sore back and terrible headaches
and at times would get severe
dizzy spells and specks would float
before my eyes. I was so nervous
and irritable that the least noise
bothered me awfully. My kidneys
acted irregularly and caused me considerable
annoyance. I heard of
Doan's Kidney Pills and to my surprise,
after using a few, I felt a
great deal better. I had no more
pains in my back. When I had taken
the whole box, my kidneys were
strengthened and I felt like a different

would have done if it weren't for
