The kaiser tries hard to please, but his efforts are very bungllng"
 The speaker was Seward Prosser head of the New York Red Cross.
 ''1ae kaiser" he went on. kicked out Bethmann Hollweg, who only want ed an honorable peace, and took on Doctor Michaelis, who demands a peace of victory. Yes, the kaiser tries to please his people-he even tries to please the allies-but he bungles like the bachelor.

ATHLETICS FOR ALL"
Secretary Baker Points Out
 Faults of College Sports.
Students Not AthIeticaIIy Inclined Left to Fill Seats in Bleachers and Not Encouraged to Take
 Up Exercise.

A new era for college athletics is at hand if the mentors of sports in our schools throughout the country will put their shoulders to the wheel.
 At a recent conference of the Ma tional Collegiate Athletic association at Washington Secretary of War Baker urged athletics for all" in our schools and colleges. He said that the custom of making specialized ath- letes out of the stronger and healthier students is we'll enough in way but he pointed out that the greatest fault with collegiate sports, as he saw it, was the fact that students not ath- letically inclined are left to fill the bleachers' seats, and not encouraged to take up healthy exercise.
 From government standpoint in these warsome times, the encourage ment of college sports means the ele- vation of physical fitness for large percentage of the youth of the nation. Men who are physically fit have the qualities necessary to the good sol dier, and, in the eyes of the govern ment, a cessation of college sports would do a great and unnecessary harm.
 The National Collegiate Athletic association did not adopt resolution to encourage college athletics on a greater and more democratic scale than ever before with the idea that college youths are to be trained for the ranks of the army alone. tThe goal for which the governors of col legiate sports are aiming embraces more than that. It points toward the adoption of universal athletic training in some form for all college students and the encouragement of physical fitness for all.
 The message Secretary Baker gave the college representatives, therefore, has paved the way. The colleges have only to follow the path.
 Perhaps the greatest immediate benefit to be gained through the ac- tion of the association is the effect 1t will have on football. The great gridiron sport was in bad way prior to the Washington meeting, because many colleges took the view that drop ping all sports was the greatest patri- otic step they could take. Eastern football, especially, was doomed to ex- perience a season of depression this fall had it not been for Secretary Bakers timely words. As it stands now, the great majority of Eastern col leges will keep football alive and kick ing. In the West, where football was to be continued, the sport faces thriv- ing season, despite depletion in the ranks of the players, caused by enlist ments and the selective draft.

BANCROFT IS BATTING WELL
Philadelphia Shortstop Is Reckoning Himself After Poor Showing

David Bancroft, the Chopin of short stops. is redeeming himself at bat this year. When Davy had his fast set christening in 1915 he was one of the teams most dependable hitters. He soused the pill hard and often and made number of theatrical long-dis- tance knocks that won games for Mo- ran and his men.
 Last season Davy, while maintaining his fielding thrills, skidded at bat. He was shy in the swat kitty all year and a dandy .254 swatsman of 1915 fell to

cts worth thousands of dollars to feel like I do now. since Tanlae has taken away the trouble that kept me in misery for the last twenty years" said II. B. Daniel, a well-known farmer living on Route out of Abbeville, Georgia, few days ago.
 ''Whenever a man suffers as long as I did, he gets to the place where he feels like he's no more good in this world, he continued, "and that's just the way I had begun to feel. Long ago I got so weak I couldn't carry on my work, for spells of stomach trouble and nervousness just made it torture for me to eat and the trouble I had wouldn't let me sleep at all My heart would fiutter and act queer until was afraid it would stop and 1 got so blue and discouraged that I felt like I didn't much care if it did.
 'Td been well-enough satisfied just to have my sufferings relieved, but that's not all Tanlac has done for mel have gained eleven pounds in weight-since I started taking it. I can eat as hearty a meal as if I had never had stomach trouble at all and my strength has come back so I can do as much work in a day as I ever could. just feel like a new man all over and will be glad to tell anybody just what this wonderful medicine has done for me"

 Papa, lost my heart on the moon- lit beach last night, and accepted old Rake Harduppe Poor Rake is no longer young, I know, but, as said, I've lost my heart

FROM TWILIGHT LEAGUE

Uncle Joe" Cantillon, mana ger of the Minneapolis club,
 pulled a prize alibi for a kid
 pitcher some years ago that still
 stands without a rival. The Millers were playing on
 the home lot and the visiting club was knocking the cover off the ball when Mike Cantillon, brother of Joe, came rushing out
 [ to the bench in rage.
 They've knocked every pitch CT you've got off the mound but the new kidY yelled Mike. "Why
 don't you stick him in there?" Uncle Joe" had drafted the
 kid pitcher from the Canadian league, where ball games start
 after dinner, and he replied: T got this kid from the Twi- light league. He can't pitch till
 after six o'clock"

 It is thought Ed Plank's quitting will not injure the Browns pennant chances.
 Jim Corbett picks Ray Schalk as the greatest allround backstop. Anybody could do that.
 Detroit has but two 300 hitters at the present time. They are Cobb. 1884, and Veach, .312.
 Mike Began of the Reds is not much of strike-out pitcher, but he manages to win just the same.
 Johnny Kilbane umpired ball game in Cleveland. Johnny evidently dossn't care what happens to him.
 The acquisition of Evers hasn't helped the Phillies, who seem to be hopelessly out of the pennant race.

 With the exception of Alexander, the Phillies' pitching staff has been shot to pieces and Pat Moran is up tree.
 Connie Mack is easy to please. He says it will satisfy him to see his Athletics top the Browns and Sena- tors.
 Wagner must still consider himself in the promising class for he says he wants to again lead his league in bat ting.
 Barney Dreyfuss is out to land two ball players and has made offers for both. He wants an infielder and a cleanup hitter.
 Pitchers Benton and Perritt of the Giants have wagered a $50 suit of clothes on their respective batting averages this year.
 Hans Wagner has made lot of noise with the stick since his return to the game. The veteran lost little time in establishing himself among the 300 hitters.
 The Pirates may not climb out of the cellar, but they'll provide Pitts burgh fans with many interesting games. Bezdek has made considerable progress with the material in hand. Heretofore the National league list has the American league list, but of late more American than National leaguers have hit for 300 or better. With the Phllies. the Cardinals and the Reds continually bobbing up and then falling back in the National league race, there doesn't seem to be chance for the Giants to be busted from the lead.
 
 Washington is the only major league club which has two brothers playing side by side in the outfield. Clyde and Horace Milan are the brothers. The Brooklyn club also has two brothers on it's roster, Zach and Mack Wheat.
