NATURE SEEMS TO BE TESTING OUR METTK

| CWritten Specially for The Buuetin) According to the watchmen on our | political, and governmental towers, we
 are facing a season of sacrifice and l deprivation and loss. We are warned | to look for lean years in the imme- 'diate future. Already short of the la | bor needful to produce wanted crops,
 we are given notice that the ina.e- | quate quota of men is to be still fur ther- reduced by the needs of army, navy and intuition making industries l At the same time that our productive capacity is thus cut down, we are to be called on for vastly greater har- vests. Our toll of brick making straw is cut in half and, in the same breath we are bidden to double our output of bricks.
 This is q bad treatment as the poor children of Israel got at the hands of the Pharoah who knew not Joseph On top of it all comes the most phe-.
 nomenally- backward and crop-stunt-
 ing spring known in the memory of living man.
 This is even worse than the Israel
 ties had it. For the sun shone on them, which it hasn't done on us for 10, these many weeks except for homeopathic periods at aIIopathic ir- tervals.
 It certainly begins to look. weather wise. a S if the stars in their courses were fighting against Sisera-mean- ing by Sisera all the brethren and sis teren engaged in farming and allied occupations.
 Up in my neck O woods some of us are soberly. not to say anxiously. questioning what shall eat and wherewithal we shall be clothed, next winter.
 If the kind of progressive euchre l which Step mother Nature is playing on us, thus far. continues during the l season, we shall not only be unable to l help out i1 feeding the rest of the 1 world shall fn +o save us. So far as we have yet got | into 1917,' our hands in the sided | game have mostly consisted of a de- pressing selection of assorted nine | spots.
 We can fall back on dandelion | greens and scurvygrass, now. But | they won't be available next winter. | Then what?

It was when Jeshurun waxed fat that he kicked. He also became sleek and grew thick-thick-w -witted, I sup pose an6 top-heavy in his conceited self-approVals. It's most scathing indictment Of that wretched thing we call human nature that, whenever it has too easy a life allotted it, it speedily goes to the bad; exulcerates, blights; rots.
 The history of the world has been one continuous cycle of winning up- ward through hardship and sacri- flee only to fall into deterioration and degeneracy as the need for and habit of struggle grew less.
 We can't stand prosperity; at least, not as a steady thing and a universal condition. It brings on dry rot: sometimes a rot not so dry either, but malodorously emphatic in it's offen- sfve pntrescence. Rememb Der Kipling's lines =
 Ride with an idle whip,
 Ride with an unused heel: But once in a way there will come a
 day
 When the colt must be made to feel
 The whip that falls, And the curb that gals
 And the sting of the rowe1led
 steel."

READY FOR BATTLES
In VIRGINIA SERIES

The two games in the District of Co

for next Sunday afternoon are sure
TO be closely contested and the out
come will be watched with interest
by the fans who have followed the
work of the four teams participating
The Athletics and Clarendon will hook
up at Columbia Park, Fifteenth and
II streets northeast, and the Rex Ath-
letic Club will go down to Alexandria
10 battle the Cardinals on the Alfred
street diamond.
When these same teams met in
the hrst part Of the series both Wash
ington teams met defeat. Wins by
Rex and Clarendon would give the
latter the undisputed lead with the
other three teams tied. while should
the Athletics and Cardinals win a
triple. tie for first place will result
with Rex bringing up the rear.

The game with Yale 1921 is scheduled

this contest will probably be played
a week or two before that date, and in
the Jerseymen's lair.
The Harvard freshmen schedule will
probably not be played in the Sta
dium, since the production of Cali

on the playing field. and it will prob
ably take a year or two to get 1t in
good trim after II has been rcsodded.
No coach for the Harvard freshmen
team has been engaged as yet, and.
according to Fred W. Moore, Har-
wards graduate manager. such a Sc
lection may not be made until after

available on the athletic Caliber or
number of the freshmen who are to
enter Harvard this fall. but a normal

M'GRAW REFUSES
TO TALK ON FINE

New York, Aug. 30.-ManaSer John
McGraw, of the Giants. today refused
to comment on the action of the Ma
tional League in handing him a public
reprimand and a fine of $1,000 as a
result of its findings in the now IA
nous reputation case.
The doughty Giant leader, who is
usually a fiery orator, closed up like
a clam when asked what he thought
of the leagues action, and Harry NJ.
Hampstead, president OF the Giants.
had little to say beyond expressing
the belief that the fine is beyond any
thing he had expected.
McGraw's silence Is attributed ~
the fact that he Is somewhat stunned
over the fact that his last expression
OF opinion concerning Governor Tencr
and the National League has cost him
in the neighborhood of 800 a word.
The S1.0CO fine imposed on McGraw
is the largest fine that has ever been
imposed on a player or manager in
the history of the game. And the
warning Of the league that future dis
tuTbances, such as the McGraw case,
will result in suspension for the sea-
son as a minimum punishment, is ex-
pected to keep strict peace in Ma
tional League circles for some time
to come.
