Lightweights Campbell and

It will be case OF the survival OF
the Attest this evening at the Pavilion
rink, when Ray Campbell will pit
his science. speed and skill against
the rushes and strength OF Louis

travel four rounds as headliners. and
as each has large following here,
the bout has created unusual inter-
est
There is q chance for one of them
to forge to the front rapidly. as good
lightweights are a bit scarce now.
The promoters are looking for live
ones to entertain the fans and at the
present time Campbell and Rees look
to be the best of the lot. with the
possible exception of frankie Burns
of Oakland, who Is regarded as the
class of the outfit
Much depends upon the showing

In order to convince the fans that he
can qualify in fast company In the
future.
1t is likely that Rees will do the
rushing and the clinching In order to
break Campbelrs defense and score
on the .inf1ghting. Campbell. on the

Oaks Manager, Once a Giant,
Says There Are No More
Stars in National
BY ARTHUR DEvLIN
Former Giant and Now Manager
of the Oaks

of the Oaks
~ HERE are no stars in the
National league. Jake Dau-
bert, the clever first baseman
of the Brooklyn club, was the
man I picked to win the Chal-
mers trophy and he landed 1t.
He looks to be the most promis-
ing man in the senior major
league and may develop into a
real star In another year or so.
Wagner undoubtedly was the
greatest player of them all, but
he is no longer star. He Is
good enough to hold his own
with the present aggrega-
tion, but time has slowed him up.
I know little about the players
of the American league. can
not express an opinion of Cobb,
and am not in q position
to ciriticise him, as have played
all the time in the National
league and know little about
him. I have seen Collins play a
few times, and he strikes me as
being a very fine player. but he
can hardly be classed with Wag-
ner. as he is young in the game,
and he will have to go . long way
to accomplish what Wagner has.
Wagner is no longer a star. He
is still a good player, but he IL far
from being the man he was few
years back. He still can hit. but
he does not run the bases like he
used to. Wagner confines his base
stealing nowadays to critical
times / believe that II he was in
a game and 1t was necessary to
steal bag he would go after it.

their daughters to it, and Mr..

this state OF affairs, which Is to
give the country woman the same
labor saving devices the country
man has. and to brighten rural
life in every possible way for the
women and the children.

patriots could not hope to win
out against the mighty odds ere

power of the north. Still they
fought on, and when, by the logic
of war, they were forced to give
up and drop back into the ola
situation, they had nothing to be
ashamed of. They had done a..
that brave and honorable men
could do to secure to their emil

siastic over the October
number of Good Housekeeping
Magazine, and why l think that

Because, in my opinion, it APP
proaches more nearly to the ideal
Of the Great Woman's Magazine
than any other publication ever
has before. 1t beats past per
formances even in Good House
keeping.
Because it Is both entertaining
and instructive.
Because it is womanly without
being womanish,
Because 1t offers to its readers
a menu that contains good strong
meat, into which they can set
their teeth instead OF feeding
them solely on flubdub sweet
meats
Because It grapples with the

well as how TO knit pink baby
