were employed during 1915, but sew
eral club owners in different parts of
the country were requested to report
on the best material in their circuits.
1t is argued that the scout sees only
a small portion of the minors work
and is. not as competent to Judge as
a club owner who watches his actions
day after day.
! That is sound reasoning, but there
is also a chance that a club owner
may unload to line his own pockets.
= The men the Cubs will try to get in
, the draft are unknown. Two phe-
mons are coming from Duluth, how
ever, pursuant to the new scouting
plan. Owner Blume was asked to
pick his two stars and sell them to
the West Siders. He selected Wolfe,
z a shortstop, and Kirkham, a center
fielder. Their abilities are not known
ito any one hereabouts.
Noble efforts must be made to
strengthen the Cubs before the sea-
son of 1916 opens if the team is to
ever get out of the second division.
Several positions must be stocked
with new timber, the present holders
of certain jobs being incapable of ever
again pacing at big league speed.
Bresnahan expects to take a raft
of players south with him next spring.

will be cleaned out through trades
and sales. Men who have proven
failures will not be carried for an
other season, no matter what kind of
a contract they may have. 1t would
be better business to send them to a
smaller league, pay the difference in
salary and get young men who will
put their best efforts into their work.
The results this season have prov
en- that, for the Cubs have not drawn
as well as they would have had the
pastiming on the West Side been in
teresting. Fans will not go out to
see stars whose glory has faded.
Yesterdays game between Braves
and Cubs was great stuff. An exam
ination of the box score makes it ap-
pear that the Cubs were merely out
slugged at critical moments, and won
an ordinary game. 1t was an ordi-
nary game, all right-very-but the
statistics of box score cans show
some of the things that happened.
They can't show how Good presented
Gowdy with hit by misjudging his
easy fly, and they can't show how Vic
SAFER and Artle Phelan played pltch
and catch with each other while
Brave runner raced home. Neither
can they show how Dick Rudolph
was handed a home run when he
should have been out sixty feet at
the plate.
The box score not only covers
multitude of sins, but it also covers
one skin per day, as rule, when the
Cubs are concerned.
The other day one of our local
critics suspicioned there was lack of
gameness among the Boston Red
Sox. That was somewhat partisan
and partisan baseball exporting some
times suffers from its own over-en-
thusiasm.

THE FIRE BAG

THE "fire bag" is relic of the old days of
wooden ships. Every whaler and sealer
used to carry such a bag. 1t was of tar
pauin, about one foot in length and six
inches in width. 1t was lined with water
proof material, with interlnings of oilcloth
and thick flannel. In this was placed the
flint and tinderbox for kindling fire. The
bag was then securely fastened with double
flaps and tied in such manner as to keep
its contents dry.
1t was the duty of the second mate to
look after the fire bag, and in case of ship
wreck to attach it at once to his person BY
means OF stout straps provided for the pur-
pose. So, if officers and crew were cast
away on some deserted shore, the means of
obtaining a fire were not wanting so long as
the precious fire bag was safe
The modern steam whalcrs and sealers
carry fire bag slowed in the lifeboats with
the bread and water but it is of rubber,
and contains half dozen tight tin
boxes of matches.

distant from Washington is not excluded
from getting at least some of the benefits of
his national library because he cannot afford
to go to Washington.
Possibly the average citizen, if he thinks
at all, thinks that it makes extraordinarily
little difference to him what the Library of
Congress does, whether it has any cards at
all, printed or other sort. But this card
made great difference to one of the largest
universities in the country From its foun-
dation no adequate provision had been
made for the organization of its library.
The laconic reply to the librarians plea for
a sufficiently large staff was "No funds"
In the years when these printed cards were
new thing they looked to the long-suffering
librarian like possible source of relief. In
fact, the defective equipment for making the
contents of the library readily available was
Gripping the entire educational work of the
institution. Of what use is book or a
pamphlet, or an article, if it cannot be
found, and found promptly, when needed?
The estimated cost of the printed cards was
so ridiculously small compared with the
probable resultant benefit that this item was
allowed on the budget. The Library of
Congress people took special interest in
the undertaking, as it was the first attempt
to use their much studied printed card sys-
TEN on large scale in an important library
The nimble card conquered situation that
was inherited and becoming increasingly
difficult.
Just printed card-but it increases the
possible service of every public library staff

million dollars-have doubtless made more
impression on the public consciousness than
have some of the painstaking activities
going on in that great edifice. OF these
varied functions of the national library none
is more far reaching in the development of
American libraries than this same printed
card. Title upon title here card and there
card, last year forty-fve thousand differ
ent titles were added to the stock of cards
from which any institution or individual may
purchase. This card may appear insignifi-
cant to the uninitiatcd, but it means that
the resources of the greatest American IL
brary are being made easily accessible to all
corners, and that the work of the most ex-
pert cataloguers may be utilized at slight
expense by even the smallest public library
or by an individual.

self-support, Browns self-respect and cour-
age returned. His old appearance came
back. Before long he was holding himself
as he had learned to hold himself at the
Point. He was quick, alert, brisk, in speech
and manner. The foreman under whom he
served soon recognized in Brown man of
able mind which had been we'll trained; al
though for long time afterward he never
dreamed that this clerk had been through
one of the most thorough courses of educa-
ton provided for any body of men in the
world. MIR. Underwood, true to himself
gave no inkling that this erect, eager man of
forty or thereabouts had been prison bird
almost desperate suicide. And he, master
OF thousands of men, was not greatly sur
prlsed when he saw that Brown was holding
better position with higher wages.
This material proof that he was doing sat-
isfactorily seemed to be the last thing the
former army Captain needed. He grasped
problems more easily than before; he saw
through them at glance his skilled mind
devised ways and means for overcoming
difficulties that would have baked an ordi-
nary clerk. He was given position still
higher, with another increase of pay, in
which he had charge of others; and row
showed one of the rarest attributes leading
to success,-the ability not merely to com.
mand men, but in such way as to arouse
in them enthusiasm for their tasks, to set
them on fire with ambition to "put propo-
sition over the plate" no matter how hard,
how complicated, or how discouraging it ap-
pears at the outset.
SEVERAL years have passed since Brown
got his first job with the Erie Railroad.
Today he is living with his wife and children
in {. home radiating happiness and affection.
He is still working hard. He has to; for now
his "territory" has been enlarged until it is
big enough for even man of his caliber to
handle.
What was that unaccountable sometime
that happened to Brown when Salvation
Army scout spotted him on 14th street, and
prevented him from crossing the great city
to jump off the pier and make hole in the
East River? Various persons will have
various theories as to it. But if YOU want to
know what Brown himself says, go down to
the Salvation Army headquarters and listen
carefully. He is there regularly once each
month, accompanied by his wife. They go
there so that Brown can tell his story to
other discouraged, battered human wrecks
who are brought into that big hall; to tell
them what he has been through, and by
what means he was saved from suicide and
restored to sef-respect and his family.

cot bed, and someone was giving him spoon
fuls of warm broth to swallow.
Days passed before he was able to leave
that hospital and attend other meetings in
the big hall. And then the unaccountable
happened. One night Brown went with firm
step to the officer in charge, looked him in
the eye, and said:
Major, will never drink again as long
as live. want chance to work and make
good"
They talked for few minutes, and the
following morning Brown was sent far up
town to one of the industrial homes, where
he was given light duties to perform in pay
ment for his board, lodging, and clothes.
When he became stronger he was sent on
errands around the city-but did not know
that every time he left the industrial home
he was carefully watched, so that those in
charge would know whether he really was
trying to make good or merely shamming
Those who kept track of him reported with
unvarying regularity that when Brown was
sent on an errand he went directly to the
place designated, and came straight back
to the home without entering saloon, or
trying to beg money on the Streets or loiter-
ing at all.
:. After three months of this tryout F. d.
Underwood, president of the Erie Railroad,

but he's on his feet today, and l think he

living. want job for this man,"

fere with such work; that they devote part
OF their best thought and effort to aiding
men who are down and out to brace up, to
take hold of life with new grip, and face
the world determined to make good at last.
BROWN started in the job Mr. Underwood
gave him, Ia small job with few respon-
sibilities, and at salary of fifteen dollars
week. He worked hard, twice as hard as if
he had been working for himself, because he
realized that if he failed it might seriously
affect the chances of the next man in his
situation for whom the Salvation Army
should ask an opportunity. AS soon as he
really found himself standing on his own
feet, and actually earning enough money for
