TWIN STATE LEAGUE /
SHOULD GET BUSY
Conditions Have Arisen Which Make
it Inadvisable to Wait Until
March for Annual Meeting.

With the northampton team flirting
with chance to enter the Eastern asso-
citation, with the kecne directorate out
OF the game and others planning to take
up the continuance of baseball in that
town. and with the other teams marking
time and plainly hesitating as to the best
future course, the annual meeting of the
Twin State league Is planned for some
time in March
The directors of the Northampton base
bail team have promised to give their final
answer to the Scinsllis OF New Britain
, as Ia whether northampton, a money los
cr last season in a league with Il salary
list OF less than $500 a week per team
Will decide to make a plunge into league
ball where the salary list runs to between
50 900 and $1,000 a month
When that answer is given the atm0s-
phere down there win be clarified The
Northampton directors undoubtedly will
make up their minds not only as to the
Eastern association proposition but also as
10 whether Northampton is to have pro-
fc~sonal league ball at all next season.
| There Is no perceptiblc reason for an ex-
cu~e to wait until sometime in March be

league get together and at least start a
discussion as to whether il Is TO be posi-

details, unless it were decided not to have
a league, would be settled AT one meeting

Berlin. June Ib.-The remarka BILE
extent to which even youngsters are
following the political and war devel-
opments are indicated by the answers
of a school-full of 9-year- old. girls
to the question, What would you do
if you Were the King Of Italy?" The
question was submitted when Italy
was apparently undecided whether to
enter the war or not
Forty-two girls answered. and with
out exception they said that the King
of Italy would not declare war. The
reason, they said disingenuously. was
because Italy was in the triple ALL
ance. Individually the answers rang
ed from IF i were King of Italy I
would not declare war because enough
blood has been spilled already" to II
would not go into the war because /
could not get any more than I can

The children INDUCED their fancy
to the extent of imagining automobile
and carriage rides which they would
take if they were King, but each such
ride eliminated in a proclamation

CORDIAL RELATIONS
BETWEEN BRITISH

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
British Headquarters. France, June
15.-One of the first considerations Of
the British army officials is the avoid
ance of all friction with the inhabi-
tants of the occupied districts of
France and the maintenance Of most
cordial relations with the French sol
diers. A principal factor In keeping
on good terms with the allied army
has been the steadfast insistence on
the courtesies Of discipline.
Military etiquette, for example, de-
mands that when a party Of British
officers are saluted by a British pri-
vate, only the senior officer aoknowl-
edges the salute. When. however, the
salute is given by French private,
the Acknowledgement Is made by all
the officers. The idea is" a staff Of

courtesy we daily show to the French
