cud put i'm tn field: fJczsimmous, the
Boston baseball nine. tn Clan-na-Gael
Gay-ards. TN Englewo0d Cadets an Jo-
seph NEEDLE, tn editor iv tn Thrybunei
Cud amy totterin' dynasty iv Europe
overcome that mar-rtial array, as tn f--
low says. Yes, know they have some
brave editors in Spain-aS fadlant lot
" la-ads as iver sluns a pen. But thy.re
not in the same class with our sojers. tn

They cant do tn sthrat-ee-gee that a good
American editor is brought up on.

Now, if we left it to tn newspapers
they'd be no small talk. Woodford'd go
over TO tn widow woman with wan small
