NATIONAL BAD MANNERS.
tiust . Polite People Necessarily ee .
 Oecadent Onef

very queer situation involving a question of the great value Of bad manners and the important work they perform in the preservation or na- tion. and especially the British empire, has arisen in England. k,ng George recently criticised the manners of Eng lishmen. which. he said. were getting worse and worse. and he suggested that it would be n good thing to in- cude the medication of courtesy in the curricula of the schools. And i'm mediately a great many loyal British subjects remade the discovery that Englishmen are not patterns of polite. ness They began to depfecate it and say what a pity it is and what could be done to alter it.
 The bisho? of Worcester made speech 10 the boys of Nolverley sch cl in which he recalled a conversation h h2d with the king on the subject ct manners. The king had assured the bishon that Euc!ishmen in point of manners were beginning to compare very badly with distinguished rerre- sentatives of 0 her nations With whom he came in contact.
 And now sone of the d.gniied Brit ish Journals and periodicals have rush ed into the fray with an argument in favor of bad manners. Lol don Truth for instance. calls attention to the fact that too much courtesy has in all ages accor panied downfall. "Noblesse obl.Ge." it says. has ruined more peo- pie and nations than nnwise specula ton. France has a name for courtesy; so has Italy: so has Spain. Germany. England and the United States each has special brand of bad manners Compare the status of these two groups of countries
 Bed manners of the national kind are the sign manual of power and have something fibrouS in them which does not for moment excuse them. but which enables the observer to under. stand them. On the day when George finds himself ruling over polite nation he will find himself rul- ing over a decadent nation"

For the first time in its history
the war department has yielded 4
step to popular protest against sun
day baseball playing, BY forbidding
the admission of the general public
to such games at Fort Banks, near
Boston. The attendance will he re
strieted to the families and friends
of the soldiers. Gen. Wood, chief of
staff of the army, has just returned
from Massachusetts where he inNeSti
gated the situation. Sunday baseball
is prohibited by law in Massachusetts
and the people Of Winthrop where
Fort Banks is situated, complained.
While the department maintains that
the state prohbitery law is not ar-
plicable to the national reservation
it is willing TO meet the protest by
excluding the general public. Both
the war and navy departments hereto
fcre have declined TO place any re-
strictions upon Sunday baseball rlay-

day afternoon by a score of 10 to 6. The
game was a good one for those who like
to see an old-fashioned hitting game,
the pitchers for both teams being chang

home team was made too late, however
the game being already won Osborne
who began the box work for the home
team, seemed TO have very poor control
and it was the free passes which he is
sued rather than heavy hitting which
told on the score card. Wood was not
scored on. The substitution upon the
