OTHER MANAGERS CHANGE, BUT MACK
AND CLARKE REMAIN HEAD SAME TEAMS

Clarke is still bossing the Pirates
and Mack the Athletics.
The American league first invad-
ed the east in 1901, and Mack put
his team in Philadelphia. Mack
has won the pennant in the younger
organization twice, in 1902 and
1905. Clarke in the same time has
three pennants to his credit, 1902,
1903 and 1909, wherein his team
also annexed the title Of worlds
champions.
Mack is a bench manager, about
the only one left in the two big
leagues. Clarke plays left field for
his Pirates, and is one of the real
stars of baseball. Mack was for
ferly a catcher, and good one,
but it has been a good many years
now, as baseball goes, since he
donned the wind pad and mask and
went behind the bat. He is one of
the shrewdest men in baseball, and
he has always had the Athletics
fighting around the top. This year

the eastern critics are picking the
Athletics to beat Detroit and to win
the pennant. Mack is anxious to do
this, and then to trim the National
league champions in the worlds
series. He has never forgotten the
manhandling the New York Giants
handed him in the play-off series
some years back.
Clarke and his team bid fair to
repeat their success of last year.
The Pirates are playing grand ball,
and are now making the running in
the old organization. If both
Pennsylvania teams should win in
their respective leagues, and then
play for the woEld's championship,

So Sorry, But We Can't Do II.

Some people have been disposed
to find fault with the post office
employees because they have
adopted an ironclad rule that appli-
cants for money orders must fill
out the blank themselves. For
many years it has been the custom
for the applicant to state the name
and address of the payee and
amount of the order and have the
clerk issuing the order to fill out
the blank for them. Now all of
this has stopped and if you will not
look at it from the standpoint of
the post Office people you will
again be guilty of unkind remarks
when they kindly but firmly insist
that you make out your own
application.
Many times in the past, after
the clerk has filled out the applica-
ton blank and made out the order.
the applicant has returned itsaying
that a mistake had been made in
the name or the amount or some
thing and another order would
have to be issued. Whenever such
as this transpired it meant that the
person issuing the order had to pay
the fee himself and then issue
another order. Naturally this got
to be burdensome and as there is
always likelihood of a name or
amount being misunderstood the
rule was adopted that the clerks
should fill out no more blanks.
This is in accord with the Govern
ment regulations which says speci-
ficalIy that the applicant shall fill
out their own blanks in making
application for a money order.
So in the future. always ask for
the blank when presenting yourself
at the window and fill it out your
Self.
When this rule was first adopted
some people got mighty mad. One
lady became SO angry that she has
