Baseball promoters will not profit
much this year, but they will not
lose as much, according to the pres
ent outlook, as appeared to be the
prospect a few weeks after the sea-
son opened. This is written concern
ing the major leagues. The minors
cannot hope to prosper because they
have corrected almost none of the
evils of poorly arranged circuits and
extravaganza which have kept them
on the verge of poverty for years.
The economical regime in the majors
is largely responsible for the plight
Of the minors because they have de-
pended so much in the past on the
sales Of recruits, and that traffic is
now reduced to minimum for va
rious reasons.
What the conditions will be next
year remains to be seen. They depend
a great deal on the developments OF
the war. But at the present rate OF
progress by the government 1t does
not appear that any appreciate In
road on the ranks of any profession
or trade will be made before another
year. The first half million OF the
drafted army is not likely to produce
gaps in the major league ranks that
cannot be filled, if the draft is con-
Quoted by lottery, and at the present
rate Of preparation the government
will have it's hands fun getting the
first half million ready for service
abroad inside Of a year.
BY that time another championship
race would be well under way be-
fore the army environments (Which
stiIl are on paper could be vacated
to make room for second half mill
lion Of drafted men. Consequently
the baseball promoters, who were
ready to close their gates at the end
of this season, are beginning to plan
tentatively for next year and have
decided to await developments be-
fore making final decision.

There is a third splendid tradition

fought always and everywhere in de-

merely for territory and for power.

we're granted. The incidents. how
ever, are typical OF the army. Thou
sands OF similar stories might be
told They represent the spirit that
w.ll inspire the National Army when
the time comes to show the stuff OF
which II Is made.
Tales OF heroic courage can be
found In the annals Of all armsas and
OF all nations. But the American
Army has It's own special tradition
which these incidents illustrate. Il
Is the tradition Of Intelligence, self.
reliance. and individual daring on
the part Of men serving in the
ranks. f
The Individual Soldier Counts
Other things being equal, an army
made up OF selfreliant, thinking men
has a great advantage over a merely
machine-like army, and this is especi.
ally true In presentday warfare.
Maj, Gen. Hugh L. Scott. Chief OF
Stan, U. S, A., remarks on this point;
The conditions under which mod
( ern wars are fought are ever making
Increasing demands on the individual
/ soldier. The individual soldier
must know how to interpret accur-
ately orders and signals, for the
enemy's IRE may often so isolate him
from his leader and comrades, per
haps only a step away. that he may
be thrown on his own initiative IN
making hiB actions conform 10 those
OF the whole line; he may have q
use his own judgment in opening Are
in advancing, in intrenching"

BABY WEEK TO BE oBsERvEO.

National Baby Week will be observed IN
San Benito again this year from MAY | Ia
Z by the Athenian Club. This was decided
at the regular meeting Of the club held
Wednesday. Baby Week last year was one
of the biggest events held i'm San Benito,
but would hay been 4 greater affair. il
Is said, had preparations been started
sooner. Much material was furnished Nv
the national committee for the celebration
but on account of a late start the local
committee was unable 10 take full advan-
tage OF the opportunities.
Early preparations are being made this
year and It j. stated that the program will
be bigger and better than before. The OBJ
lect Of Baby Week is to stimulate inter
est IN better babies. "Baby health j. Tex
as wealth. j. the slogan Of the week.
The idea of Baby Week was conceived nv
the General Federation Of Women's Clubs.
The federal government took up the cam
.paign and exercises a supervision over and
encourages the movemcnt, making il ma
ton wide IN its scope.
