that II his fighting ability is worth

This advice seemed tardy in view of
Barney Dreyfuss' statement yesterday
that he cid not want Thorpe because
he did not think the Indian could play big

from the first that the, Pirates scout
was responsible. For a long time he
was after Thorpe, but had failed to get
the Indian to consent to play profess

Sullivan to go out and "get" those

to help drive Bulgaria from that proud position.
Greece seems sure of being the strong nation to
the south and Roumania apparently is to occupy
like position in the north.
After interval covering than two
thousand years, Greece appears to be coming into
her once more. Over two thousand years
ago, Greece the proud mistress of a great
Mediterranean empire Overthrow from her
lofty position she became the slave of Rome and
its long line of rulers. Conquered by the Turks
in their mighty invasion of Europe in 1853,
Greece underwent all the tortures of subjugation
common to Mohammedan rule. In 1921 she threw
off the Turkish yoke.
Many years elapsed before Greece again at
tempted to assert herself. And when she did,
disaster overlook her. In 1897 Greece became
involved in war with Turkey and humiat-
ingly defeated. A strange irony was that King
Constantine, who has shown himself to be great
military leader in the present wars, crown
prince was in command Of that 1897 Greek army
that was so easily overwhelmed.
After many centuries another Constantine

many years away from occupying that city
founded by the first Constantine, the present
Turkish capital, Constantinople.

After 1000 Years

According to last evenings press reports,
Greece may seize the whole northern coast of
the Aegean sea, territory that fell by right of
conquest to Bulgaria during the recent Balkan
Turkish war. During the present war between
the former allies the Greek army has driven out
the Bulgarans from this territory and now
holds it.
That Greece may not be able to gain this
great accession of territory without a struggle is
limited. Servia, baked by Austria from an out
let to the sea through Albania, in all probability
will desire a strip of land giving it an outlet on
the Aegean.
Such an arrangement undoubtedly will not be
tolerated by Greece without a fight 1t would
weaken the latter country fatally, as it would
divide what would otherwise be homogeneous
Greek kingdom or empire.
That Servia could succeed in undertaking to
obtain this territory is not very likely. Since
Roumania's entry into the Balkan war it looks
very much as though King Constantine of Greece
is postmaster at the game of international
politics.
Roumania, naturally, would have been very
foolish to have failed to take advantage of so
good an opportunity not only to gain large addi-
tions of territory at Bulgaria's expense but also
to profit UNNECESSARILY by assisting in the utter
humiliation of her strong neighbours military
strength
If King Constantine arranged for the cooper
alton of the Roumanians in helping subjugate
Bulgaria then he is undoubtedly sure of a secret
ally in case Serva is disposed at the conclusion of
hostilities to demand territory that is absolutely
necessary to a greater Greek kingdom or empire
Roumania will be no more anxious to see
Servia become the strong nation of the Balkans
