Mark and Moran Tell of Pennant Teams
in N. A. Baseball Number

Connie Mack and Pat Moran are the
star contributors to The North Americans
twelfth annual baseball supplement,
which appears SUNDAY, May 81.
These famous managers, in specially
prepared signed articles, discuss the
building of championship baseball teams,
a subject which they should know, since
between them they have produced in the
last fifteen seasons more pennant winners
than any other city has had.
In that interval Philadelphia has had
six championships in the American
League and one in the National, as well
as three worlds titles, Father Penn, as
the city of baseball supremacy, is the SUBJ
ject of the attractive first page in colors,
the work of Artist Morris Pancoast.
James G. Isaminger, The North Ameri-
cans noted baseball humorist, presents
an entertaining article in which he deals
with the foibles and personality OF the
fan. Joe Cunningham, cartoonist and
conductor of the Bubbles Puzzle Depart
ment, illustrates Mr.. Issminger's articles.
George NJ. Graham, sports editor of The
North American, draws a picture OF what
happens on the bench during the excite
ment Of big league contests, all the heat
of play, the grim humor, the lightning
fash of the players minds, all being
brought wildly to the mind of the
reader.
Ross E. Kaufman is there strong with
a couple of pages of school and college
baseball. There is the usual roster Of
local clubs, announcements by the minor
leagues and illustrated forecasts of many
teams throughout the state.
Something new i'll the way of a contest
is presented in which 500 in prizes is
offered to fans who can identify the
greatest number of former Philadelphia
and Athletic players, whose pictures are
printed without their names. This test
permits ali interesting trial of memoir
and of baseball loyalty.
Previous editions of The North Amefi.
cans baseball edition have always been
sold out.

When the returns came in from the
election it was found that those wno
voted were very evenly divided ana
the majority for the retention of the
building was only 33 votes. The vote
stood for removal 1885; against re-
moval 1863. 1t is little strange that
the big majority for removal was in
the town and it is due to the people
of the rural districts thai the ma
jority was not for removal The vote
in town precincts was as follows:

facilities to take care of the children
who should be in school. That is
the position of Gov. Blease on the
subject of compulsory attendance
He favors it, but would vote against
it because We are not prepared To
take care of the children. If that is
the admission to be made, then We
had better have first compulsory
law to make the people provide the
facilities. Those children who are
not in school have just as much right
there as those who are in. That, to
my mind, is very impotent argument
against compulsory attendance law.
If compulsory attendance is a good
law, then we should have it, and it
we have not the facilities then We
should be made to provide them. That
is my position. The only way to
find out if we are lacking in the fa-
cilities to take care of the children
is to require them to go to school,
and then if we have not the room or
the teachers make us provide them.
That seems to me to be the only ra-
tional and sensible view to take OF
the question.
But Dr.. Kinard made strong pre-
snntation of the case and | am sorry
he said he would. even right now. to-
day be against compulsory attend
ance law for this district because We
were not prepared to take care Of the
children " 10 should be in school. be-
cause if we are not prepared We should
be compelled to prepare just as much
as we should be compelled to send.
This is an untenable position for Gov.
Blease and also an untenable post
ton for so distinguished an educa-
tor as DR.. Kinard to take.
The thing for the people of this dis
trict to do is to provide more of the
sinews of war, and believe they will
when the matter is put squarely up
to them and they are made to see the
necessity for it. 1t is not necessary
to have any act of the legislature The
people can by petition order the elec-
ton and vote the additional money
which they have to do even if the
election be authorized under a special
act of the legislature Since writing
the above | have been informed that
the total levy row for maintenance
is mills and this will permit US TO
vote more mills before we reach
the limit fixed by the constitution.
The Herald and News will do all it
can to present the matter fairly anu
properly to the people and we are sure
when they see it they will provide
the money. They have always res
ponded nobly to the call of the schools
and they will not fail now. DR.. Kin
ard says we do not need any more
building, but We do need more teach
ers, that now some of the teachers
have as many as fifty children in
grade. That is too many for any
teacher to do justice by.
DR.. Kinard was authorized to ap-
point a comrnitte to bring the matter
to the attention of the legislative dele
cation, suppose to have special
act passed calling the election. By
petition of one-third of the freehold
ers the election could be ordered and
I am. not so sure but that would be
the better plan. But any plan that
will bring results is all right.
After the address of Dr.. Kinard
and the action mentioned the D. A.
R. asked to present a matter touching
the old court house but this is an
other story.

Removal Renloval


So it will be seen that at that tims
the town was for removal And the
country saved the day. l might say
that the town has almost always beeH
in passing that it is little strange
against me in matters Of this kind,
but generally afterwards has come
around With my position. Just a lit
tie ahead the procession. My lu,-
preston is that some or those now
leading in the movement to make this
q community building were IN tae
list OF those who wanted at that time
10 have it tom uO~n.
Now this little bit OF history may not
be o. ulLe, est to rnoSe OIL tue present
day and if it is not why just skip
:. sl.u so On 10 something else,: but

forget, and then to nelp US IN the
ii ose4li movement. Anu | DO NOT
want to be misunderstood, for am
as nappy as Or. harms said he Was
tnat 1uls marks the beginning OF u
new era, and fro I! this day On We
will nave community building. but
the idea was not new to ME dS u
seemed 10 oe to DR.. Harms, but then'
YOU k..ow, | nave been here a long
time. and have been laboring for the
advancement and development OF the
community mucn longer than Dr.

ure to join in with him and tne
Daughters and the community nrceeS-
ing OF the parent teachers in helping
Oh the good cause and the making OUT
of this building what l dreamed lor
it years ago.
There has been no legislation On
the matter and tine vote on the ques-
ton was not legally binding on, any
one, it was simply referendum to
get the expression of the will OF tns
people. The old building still De
u.s to the people of the county and
they may do with it as they please
ABOUT the time Of this vote the re-
presentatives of the Coats heirs sent
a lawyer to look into the matter and
I am convinced that he was conVlnc-
ed there was nothing in it for the
heirs. At any rate We may now W,
anes,l and make library and rest
room and have one Of the best OF any
town in the State and We will not
have to name it Carnegie.
Mr.. Spearman read the paper writ

it was resolved by the meeting thai

Mr.. Spearman to be chairman or the

can be done. in order to carry out
the idea it will take some leslsla-
ton. Mr.. Spearman and Mr.. Arthur
Kibler and Mr.. John NJ. Kinard and
Mr.. ALAN Johnstone and Dr.. Harms
all made remarks favoring the scheme
tnosgh they did not seem to be Ia
miliar with the situation. Well, 1t Is
coed that they favor it and will be
more than pleased to help the good
work on and hope to see some time
in the not distant future another OF
nv dreams for the town realized III

and convenient and comfortable resr
rooms for the men and the women OF
