AL as second class matter.
How do you greet the farmer when
/ comes to town?
Is your greeting such that he feels
hat he is with us, but not of us? Or
s he made to feel that he is in his
town, among his people, and with his
friends?
The making or the marring of this
own depends greatly upon your atti-
ude toward the farmer when he fav-
srs us with his visits.
He is the backbone Of the communi-
~, and without his aid and encourage
ment we would be an unsuccessful
community.
The townsman is no better than the
man from the farm, and the farmer
can claim no superiority to the towns
man.
We are all human beings with the
same purpose in life, and endowed
with the same brand of intelligence.
In fact, we are brothers of a COM
mon community, the only difference
being that the one lives in town, where
life is little more diversified, while
the other breathes Gods pure air in
the green fields oil the country.
Let us remember that we are broth
ers, and sisters, and cousins, and that
the welfare Of the one is vital to the
success of the other.
~ When We ride out into the country
the farmer extends the hand of fellow
ship, BIDS US welcome, and hands us a
hearty "come again"
1t is a delightful characteristic of
the man from the farm, for his greet
ing is sincere and his invitation is
from the heart.
But what of us when the farmer
comes to town?
Is our welcome on the same high
plane as his?
Is he made to feel and realize that
our smile is for him and not for the
contents Oh MS purse
We of the town are proud of the
farmers of this community, and of
their wives and their daughters.
They are men and women of high
order of intelligence, whose integrity
is beyond question, and whose thrift,
and energy, and perseverance, is tans-
forming our countryside into hive of
industry and wealth.
They are builders, one and all.
But we fear that we of the town
are often forgetful of the great duty
that we owe to them for their loyalty
and generosity in the support of the
local business community.
We ourselves know of the high re-
gard in which we hold the farmers of
this community, but we doubt if the
farmer knows of the warm sentiments
which we entertain toward him.
And this is because we think much
and say too little.
1t should not be so-it chould be
otherwise than thus.
Let US Of the town cultivate a more
friendly and neighborly spirit let us
open up our hearts that the farmer
may look within, for we are but one
big family and should dwell together
in unity and brotheriy love.
Let US act as we feel, and give the
farmer to understand that he is one
Of us, as we'll as with us.
We need each other, for a prosper
Gus farming community makes live
town, and the prosperity of the town
adds life and enjoyment to the country
side.

Hughey Jennings Lands Bill Morgan
of Delaware County League.

UPLAND. Pa, August 13.-Bill Nor
gan, Philadelphia boy and star pitch
err on the Upland club of the pela-
ware County League, much-sought-
after young man by big league man
ayers, has been landed by Hughay Jen-
nings for his Detroit Tigers.
Morgan has been sensation in the
Delaware County League, and big
league scouts have been after him tor
long while. Besides being the lead
ing pitcher, Bill is batting at IA BIS
clip.
George Dauss. one OF the Detroit star
pitchers, was at the Cpland-J. G. Bill
game last Saturday, and it was prob
ably then that he signed Morgan.
Morgan played with Trenton of the
Tri-State League last year. 1t was re
ported that Morgan would join Connie
Mack's Athletics at the close of the
Delaware county season. Bill will go
to Detroit as soon as Upland is as
sured of the Delaware County League

failure to play the final game with
Detroit yesterday will make a double
header possible September "A, the first
of a four-game series which the Tigers
are scheduled to open then. The race at
that time may be an entirely different
looking proposition from what it Is now,
though 10 one would dare to make pre-
diction as to which of the two teams will
be the better off.
Interest here in Boston is. Of course. at
fever heat. The fans believe the Red SoX
will walk in with the pennant, but they
are not so certain about the Braves.
though they still concede them chance.
They are hoping for dual victory. so
that the world series can be entirely wit
messed here without having to make any
jumps. short or long.
1t is not unlikely that if the Carrigan
team wins the flag it will play the
world series games on the new Braves
field which has seating capacity of
$4,000, and if playing to capacity would
have the largest crowds in the history
of the series.
1t is more than twice s large as Fen
way Park, the home of the Red Sox,
every bit as accessible and a playing
field which in all directions is over 500
feet from the home plate to the wall.
This, in itself. would be an ideal in
ducement for the playing of the series,
Tor there would be no cramped cond1-
tions and the game would not be ham
pered by any ground rules. BUTT is
understood that there is strong objec-
ton from Ban Johnson against playing
the series on the Braves grounds. He
is said to have contended some time
ago. when this matter came up, that he
considered Fenway Park the place for
the American Leaguers to play, unless
the Braves should win the National
League flag, in which event he would
not object to playing all the games
there

BOSTON. August 13.-n keeping

tour. He did not leave Washington
with the team last night and is not
expected here until Saturday. His
whereabouts are secret. but it may be
that when he shows up it will be with
the bill Of sale of some promising
player. or players.
Griffith is determined to better his

scout tout him. for he intends to see

fore he pays for him. That is why he
Ryan probably has dug up some player
of whom he thinks we'll and Griffith has
gone to meet him and look the young
ster over before closing the deal. That
IS to be the system hereafter.
An addition in then person of Horace
Milan. who is playing in the Texas
League, is very likely to be made when
the team reaches ST. Louis. 1t is un
derstood that Griffith has made ar
rangements to take the youngster on
and he is expected to report in st.

Walter johnson is not to pitch today.
The change in the plan is because the
game was not played yesterday. Boehl-

plan.

Cubs takes an unusual view of the
third and first base coachers. His
idea may occasion considerable gossip
among base ball men, fans and critics.
He favors the abolition of the coachers,
and would approve of a rule to keep
the players off the side lines while the
game is in progress. He gives his
reasons why he believes that coachers
are unnecessary. and that the game
can be played as interestingly as if
they were on the field.

KALAMAZOO, Mich. Aug. H.
With the Grand Circuit race meet
ing out Of the way, officials of Re.
creation park are now busy with
plans for the 100-mile auto race at
that track on Saturday, Aug. %.
Secretary William p. Engleman

try blanks to the well known driv-
ers OF the United States. II is ex-
pected that at least Is OF the noted
pilots, including Resta, will start in
the big event in an effort to land
the $4,000 hung up as prize money.
As the Kalamazoo race has the
sanction Of the American Automo-
bile association, IL Is certain that
the local event will be the only one
held in America on or near that date
and for that reason thu speed de-
mons will undoubtedly come here
and attempt to get a share Of the
money hung up by the association.
The big event last year was won
by Burman.

SOMETHING TO RECALL
IN OCTOBER.

Since yesterdays victory makes
this a convenient day for some PEN
nant CAB, we might as well gossip
a bit about world series possibili-
ties.
How would the betting run II De-
troit were to get into the world
series.
The Tiger offensive strength II
pretty much known quantity.
Nothing In the National league this
year can equal IL. But 1t seems that
good pitching Is an essential part
of encounters for the world cham
pionship.
Here We have a stan that one day
is remarkably strong, another day
pitifully weak, and seldom Just
fair. II has been at its best when
opposed to clubs of the strength
that Is supposed to 90 with world
series jousts. Frequently when the
picking was soft and rewards for
victories-from the average angle
great. IT has blown sky high.
What would be the odds?
Who would have the nerve to
wager many shekels with the dope
so cratic?
Speak up, you wise spectators.
