We hope to be on hand Monday
afternoon when Coach Eddie Shinn
Starts the initial baseball practice
at the Cuero High School Athletic
Reid. Shinn is at a complete
l«6s as to the number to report and
as to their individual abilities, but
indications out there are that a
pretty fair ball lcub will be round-
ed into shape. Friday afternoon
marked the last day of spring foot-
ball training and much time will
be -devoted to baseball during the
coming school months.
A portion of the afternoon ses- !
sions during the next couple of
weeks will be devoted to track and
field work, since the county meet
is only about two weeks hence.
Getting back to baseball — we
beer rumors that no less than 23
athletes will report to Coach Shinn
Monday afternoon for places on the
1937 Gobbler nine. Of course, all
of them cant make the starting
team, but as we‘ve said many j
times before, it’s the type of sub- j

' In building a house it is very im-
; portant“tcT locate it on the lot so
that the ground around it will slops
I away from the house. This slope
may be hardly perceptible, so long I
i as it is sufficient to drain surface
| water away from the house in-
i stead of toward it. On a flat lot
I this is a matter of seeing that the i
i foundation is dug to the proper t
I depth. Before excavation is start-
j ed. therefore, the level of the pro-
posed first floor should be estab-
lished with respect to the existing
grade. This should be done with a
surveyor's level, and when the cor- j
rect height is determined it should
I be marked by driving a spike into j
a nearby tree or scoring a rock of
by some other similar method.1
Driving in a stake is dangerous, for
stages may be knocked down or
driven in deeper and then the mark
is lost.
Of course, on a sloping lot the
problem is not so simple. In this
i case the ground on the up side of'
the hill must be arranged in a'
ridge with a V-shaped gully that |
will divert the water which runs
down the hill to either side of the
house.
Another thing to be careful of xs
to see that no dry wells or other
drainage units are placed so near
the house that the water seeping
from them will run against the
foundation walls. If the Federal1
Housing Administration is to in-
sure a mortgage for Jhe construe- i
tion of your home, proper drainage !
will be required before the com- j
mitment to insure will be issued.

MORE ECONOMICAL

For economy in building, all the
plumbing in the house should be
grouped together if possible. In
one-story houses the kitchen sink
should back against the bathroom
wall. In two-story houses the
bathroom should be over the

Many lovers of fine foods have a
weakness for chocolate flavored I
dishes. Given the slightest op-
portunity they never fail to choose j
hot chocolate as a drink, a cake:
with chocolate frosting or a sundae
with chocolate ice cream. And j
they are the ones who wall most
appreciate Chocolate Roiied-Oats
Cookies.
The ingredients necessary for
chocolate cookies are:
1 can sweetened condensed milk.
