enective work in the eighteenth round,

By William j. SIattery.

Although the baseball sea-
son will not terminate for
five weeks the pennant sprint
is practically over By winning
six in a row from the Seals the
Beavers from Portland have in
creased their lead to such an ex-
tent that their rivals have no
chance to catch them. unless some
few star members Of the team
break their legs or cut off their
salary arms.
The run made by the San Fran
cisco team has been very disap-
pointing to the fans. A couple Of
months ago II was leading by a
nice margin. Then the slump be-
gan. The team fell before nearly
every other team in the league,
and by losing the last series in its
entirety to the Beavers, pulls up, a
month before the close of the season,
In third place
The best thing San Francisco can
do is to try for second place. 1t will
be anything but an easy fight, for the
while there is no telling what that
Seattle outfit will do when 1t gets
started IT figures high and with a
bit OF luck will gave the Angels close
run for second honors.
Ever since entering the league three
years ago Portland has been striving
TO put a winning team in the field and
every year save this one the nine from
the webfoot State has been well in the
rear. It is therefore a source of great
satisfaction 70 the northern fans to
learn that they have at last been
honored with a collection OF tossers
who are competent to carry home the
rag.
Portland ha6 good ball team last

Corfu is one of those Greek islands
which, like the Isle of Man. has FREE
EueptIy been bnught and sold. For 3O,-
600 ducats the Venetians once secured
1t, and, with a fleet Of galleys and a
strong garrison, held it for many years
against all Corners. Chief of the lon
ian Islands, Corfus yicissitudes may
be said to have ended when, on the ac-
cession Of King George Of Greece,
England (Which held sway from 1916
to 1868 handed over the "Seyen-Isl-
and" state to that monarch's keeping.

In the world the waters of Corfu have
a unique history, for it was here that
the first recorded sea fight took place,
in B. G. 665, between the Corinthians

fell to the islanders then as now.
They were a crafty people, and when
The Persian wars were in full swing

hold as Greek but they love the Greek
Church better than the Roman.

Salient Features of the Reynolds-Neill
Report on Chicago Stock Yards.


What They Found: No ventilation in
buildings. Atmosphere heavy with
od0rs of rotten wood, decayed meats,
offal and entrails.
Toilet conveniences. entirely filthy,
placed in the rooms where the work
is done. No provision made for work
men to wash their hands.
Meat intended for food products
thrown upon filthy floors covered with
dirt, splinters and the expectoration
of tuberculous and other diseased
workers.
Aprons worn by the workers indie
scribably filthy, and meat, in cutting
process, held against these aprons
No compulsory Government inspec-
ton after killing; meat used for sau-
sages and canned products goes
through many processes from which
contamination might result. OF these
there is no inspection.
The use Of labels Equality Guaran-
teed" on cans is wholly unwarranted,
for the Government knows nothing of
their contents.
In the treatment of employees even
the ordinary decencies Of life are COM
pletely ignored Toilet rooms open di-
rectely into workroom. There are few
restrooms, and these few are often
inadequately partitioned off from the
toilet rooms.
An awful moral degradation on the
part of thousands Of workers as a di-
rect result of these conditions.
What They Recommend: Govern
ment examination after ST.. lghter
should be made compulsory instead Of
permiSsive. 1t is of supreme import
ance.
The examination of all meat prod
ucts intended for interstate commerce
at any. stage of their care or treatment
should be consigned to the Bureau Of
Animal Industry, and no mark or sign
declaring that inspection has been
made by Government officials should
be allowed on any receptacle contain
ing food products unless the same has
been subject to Government inspection
at any and every stage Of the process
Of preparation, and all such labels
should contain the date of issuance.
Meat products, and canned, preserved
or picked meats, when sent from any
packing or canning establishment. If
returned to the same, should be sub.
ject to such further inspection, regula-
ton and isolation from other meat
products.
Special Government inspection should
be carried on continuously to prevent
violations of the law and general
abuses in the trade, and to secure evi.
dence when necessary.
Consideration should be given to the
question Of specific labelling of all car
casses sold as fresh meat, which upon
examination after slaughter, show
signs Of disease. but are still deemed
suitable for food.
