FOOTBALL IS HIT BY WAR
Most Popular Sport in Germany Suf fers From Lack of Leather
 and Players.

Football, the most popular.s sport in Germany, has suffered great limita- tions on account of the war, not only because many players, and particular ly home celebrities, are at the front. but also because sporting goods are hard to get. Since all leather is be- ing used for military purposes, very little of it Is available for footballs. Several makers of footballs have agreed, however, to furnish footballs for the next few months at prices about thirty per cent above former fig ures. This slight increase is not in proportion to the actual cost, but it is the desire to enable players to keep up the healthful exercise. This sacrifice on the part of the football makers, which affects 14 firms, is highly appre- ciated. Bladders for footballs have also increased in price, as all rubber has been confiscated.
 The German sporting goods indus try has kept up with the demand of the ever-growing German athletic en- deavors, and has reached degree of perfection that establishes independ- ence of England in this respect.
 So far the American manufacturers of sporting goods have not appeared on the German market

FOR THEIR NEIGHBORS

The hardest housekeeping in the world is the housekeeping that people do for their neigh bors. Half the troubles we have are cauted by worrying about what people thing. What diff ference does it make what they think, anyway? No one can live his own life and two or three othea peoples lives besides. Whats the use of setting up housekeeping on the roof or on the outside walls for the benefit of the neighbors? You would rightly be judged insane if you suggested anything of the kind,
 and that is practically what half the people do. Thoy can't do this because the neighbors would talk, and they cant do that be- cause the neighbors wonder if they could not afford to do some thing else. They may not say it in so many words, but they mean it. and it is simply a great big vacuum in some of our na- lures where moral courage ought to be. Half the sting of poverty or small means is gone when one

Dressed in black and still mourning her husband, Mrs. Emma Roster sat in her home, 434 Bleecker street, Ridgewood, Queens, with her sixteen year-old son, reports the New York World.
 Roster disappeared strangely. A few days later Mrs. Roster was noti- fled that he had died at the city farm on Staten Island. She identified the body and a sweater Roster had worn by patch she had put in it. The body was cremated, the ashes placed in an urn which stood on her mantle piece, and the widow collected $610 life insurance.
 Mother and son were talking when the door opened and in walked Kos ter He said he had been out West on trip, but had returned home. He was well dressed and had a pros porous look

 Asked if she would keep the ashes of the unknown man, she replied:
