Sounds very much like conceding
the Feds to be of big league calibre,
when we hear that Newark will not
support major league baseball
The Southern Michigan league has
reorganized and will start the sea-
son with a circuit made up of Sag
inaw, Jackson, Bay City, Battle
Creek and Flint, Mich, and South
Bend, Ind.
Josh DevOre, who was member of
two worlds championship teams dur
ing his career in the big leagues, will
pilot the Chillicothe steam of the
Ohio State league the coming season.
"Silent John" Hummel, who was
tagged for the minors several years
ago, is still on the job with the Su
perbas, and in recent practice games
he furnished the regulation big
league article.
For another season at least the
baseball scribes must wrestle with the
name of Wambsganss. The Cleve-
land infielder hasn't dropped even
one letter from his moniker since
last season.
1t is said that Brief has cinched
the job at first base for the White
Sox. Jacques Fourier, former watch
man at stop one and celebrated as a
swatter of Walter Johnson's shoots,
is to be placed out in the meadow.
Manager Bill Carrigan of the Red
Sox has three promising twirlers in
Mays, Ruth and Comstock. All three
starred with the Providence 1nterna-
tional league pennant winners last
season. Carrigan believes they are
now ripe for fast company.
An outfielder by the name of
Thompson in Philadelphia uniform
recalls the days of the great slugger,
Sam Thompson. But as the new
conner batted only 172 in 16 games
with the Mackman last season, the
name and Phil uniform are about
all that recalls Samuel.
A certain major league rookie who
had shown nothing much in training
except a fondness for eating his head
off at every meal, figured the best
way to get an increase in salary
would be to tell the manager he had
an offer from the Federal league.
After giving the rookie the 20 o."
the manager said: II knew it. Your
appetite convinced me you belonged

Would Reach Paris.

At last his train will pull into
Paris or into some other distant city
of France where there are big hos
pitfalls. Scores of ambulances will
be waiting in the railway yards. The
ambulance attendants would be run
ming around seeking out the wound
ed to be assigned the hospital to
which he is attached. To them he
is only known by chalk mark on
the door of the carriage. They will
place him on a stretcher, put it in
a huge motor ambulance, perhaps
with one or two others who have
been wounded on distant battlefields
and the car will race through the
streets of the city to the hospital,
which seemed to the sufferer so
many miles and where warm white
beds, gentle nurses, flowers and no
responsibility await him.
1t is no wonder that wounded men
who reach the hospital wards sink

of relief and smile when they catch
the first glimpse of the white nurses.
Look back at the journey he has
taken since the moment he was hit
in the trenches and you can under
stand how a hospital ward looks
like Heaven to a wounded soldier.
To get into a hospital is one of
soldiers dreams and there are strict
laws in all armies against men
wounding themselves. In tn e
French army this self-wounding is
known as humiliation" and the pun
ishment is death. In our regiment
an ex-convict who had been released
after serving Is years in order to
permit him to enter the army, per-
suaded another soldier to shoot him
through the hand. In return for the
favor he also punctured the hand of
the soldier. When they came to
have their wounds dressed the doc
tors noticed powder marks on their
mangled hands and the truth came
out. Both men were executed.

gently absorbed by the wax and re-
placed by the newer, fresher skin be-

complexion will look remarkably
youthful and healthy.
