WORLD SERIES
 NEW YORK
 AND CHICAGO

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-In view of the keen intersectional interest which will surround the coming World Ser. ies between the New oYrk Nationals and the Chicago Americans the rec ords of the inter-league contests of the past assume unusual prominence Although so-called World Series were played as far back as 1884, it was not until 1905 that the National Commis- sion took charge of and promulgated rules for the annual autumn climax of the baseball season.
 Since that year the winning clubs in the American and National Leagues have met each October to decide, in a series of the best four games out of seven, which team should be en- titled to the championship honors of the professional baseball world for the ensueing twelve months. Of the past twelve series which are now part of diamond history, the American League standard bearing clubs have won sev- en and their National League rivals five.
 During these series sixty-six games have been played giving an average of five and a half games per series including tie contests of which there have been two. In games won the American League leads with thirty three to the Nationals thirty-one while of the 445 runs scored the Ma. tional League clubs have accounted for 223 to the Americans 222. Tc Philadelphia falls the honor of being represented in more series by pennant winning clubs than any other city or either major league circuit. Out O. the past twelve inter-league contests Philadelphia has participated sil times, with Chicago next with fv, clubs, including the series of 1906 whe nthe Chicago teams fought Ou

the question of supremacy between themselves, each having won the pen nant in their respective league. Bos- ton and New York are tied with four each, while Detroit comes next with three and Pittsburgh and Brooklyn complete the list with one apiece.
 The shortest series of the twelve was that of 1914 when the Boston Ma tionals defeated the Philadelphia Americans in four straight games. The Chicago Nations of 1907 also won four straight from the Detroit Americans but this run was preceded by a tie game with the score standing 9 to 9 when darkness halted the play. The longest series was that of 1912 in which eight games were played with the Boston Americans winning four and the New York Nationls three with one tie game thrown in for good measure.

THIS SEASON
 IS FAVORABLE
 TO TORNAD0S

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2Oth, (By MaiD.-The present season is partic- ularly favorable to the development of tornadoes, according to the weather experts of the Department of Agricul- ture, which has issued a bulletin giv- ing warnings and descriptions of storm conditions.
 1t says that tornadoes are usually preceded by high temperature and hu- midity-a weather condition generally said to be "suItry," sticky" or "Op- pressive." Rain may come before, with, or after a tornado, or, very rare ly. there may beno rain at all. The ba- rometer does not foretell a tornado though it indicates low pressuresj and tornadoes always occur in "lOw" area.
 The season in which tornadOes may be expected varies according to the region. They may visit the Gulf states in winter, and as the season advances, the region of greatest frequency is in the plains states and the Mississippi Valley, from April to September in- elusive. In this region May is the worst month, with April next. East of the Appalachian Mountains, how ever, tornadoes rarely occur until after July. Generally they come be- tween 8:3O and $500 p. m, but they may even come at night.
 Persons may somewhat avoid tOrna- do danger, by watching the local signs and reading the weather maps, which at least show the conditions which favor tornado formation. The ! local signs are heavy, dark clouds, ! first in the southwest, almost immedi- ately followed by clouds in the north west and north. A funnel-shaped cloud is a sure sign, though there may be a tornado when such a cloud is not readily seen. If funnel cloud can not be seen, the whirling motion of the air may be known by peculiar roaring noise, somewhat like the rum ble of distant thunder or the approacn of a heavy train of cars.
 If one can see the cloud and get an idea of the direction in which it is moving, the zone of safety is at right

5000 POUNDS
 WHEAT CAN BE
 SAVED IN ADAY

HONOLULU, T. H., Oct. 1. - Six thousand pounds of wheat day can be saved the United States if Homo lulu families will only eat graham or "war" bread instead of the regulation white loaf. Such is the announce ment of the territorial food commis- sion which has inaugurated a food conservation campaign that is expect ed to produce results in the home thru the school children.
 Governor Pinkham issued a procla- nation on the first day of school call ing to the attention of the children the necessity for economy in food and clothing and emphasizing the imper- ativeness of avoiding waste during the course of the war. The schools wil. conduct a special propaganda design. ed to strike home to every parent thrr the lessons to the children.

angles to the direction of motion. The southern margin is usually more dan- gerous than the northern, and this should be remembered in seeking a place of safety The width of the path of greatest destruction is ordi- nurily not more than few hundred yards, though this destructive diane ter may be from some rods wide to half a mile, or sometimes wider.
 In some of the Plain states there are so-called cyclone" cellars, and where these are not available the southwest corner of the cellar of a frame building is the next best place. Brick buildings are not safe, but the cellar is probably the safest place in them.
 Weather men define tornado as a violent windstorm with rain or hail, thunder and lightning, in which the air masses whirl with great velocity around a central core while the whole storm travels across the country in a narrow path at high speed.
 A cyclone, in the definition of the Weather Bureau, is not necessarily a windstorm of great velocity, but rath- CT a widespread storm that moves with no great speed It's width may cover several States, This cyclone, or area of low pressure - indicated as 'Iow" on the weather map-gives con- ditions essential to tornadoes. Many cyclones never develop a tornado, but tornado never develops without the cyclone, and almost invariably the tor nadoes occur in the southeast quarter of the low area. About l2O cyclones pass across the United States each year, moving in a general way from west to east. They are of great bene- fit because they induce a movement of surface air from the south and south east, and the rainfall that makes the great interior valleys a rich agricult- ural region is dependent upon these southerly, misunderstanding winds.
 TOrnadoes almost invariably move in an easterly direction and generally from southwest to northwest The av- craze length of the path of destruc- tion is about twenty-five miles, and this path may not be continuous, if the funnel cloud is not in contact with the earth during its whole course. Sometimes it rises and goes for a con- siderable distance before descending again. 70

bread are consumed daily by the white residents of Honolulu and if this con- sumption were entirely of graham bread, the above mentioned saving in wheat would result and as all flour is imported from the mainland Hawaii would consequently be less of a drain on the states in the matter of food supplies.
 The action of the government in fix ing $2.2O as the maximum for wheat, per bushel, is not expected to have any effect on bread prices here. Bread is now selling for ten cents loaf that costs six to eight cents in the States while the standard ten-cent loaf sells here for fifteen cents.

are selected from the young men of the country who are best fitted for military service.
 This process of organizing the whole Nation for war cannot, of course, be completed in a day. But it is steadily going on. 1t will necessarily go on until the end of the war. You will have back of you and supporting you the whole country-all its people and all its wealth. Congress spoke the will of the Nation in the declaration of war: gro bring the conflict to a successful termination all the re- sources of the country are hereby pledged"
 The Post of Highest Honor
 The patriotic spirit which moves the whole country will find it's highest ex- pression in it's soldiers-the men who are assigned to the post of danger and of honor. They will go all the more willingly since they know that behind them the whole Nation is organizing for the national service. Their spirit will be one of patriotic devotion fully as intense as that of American armies in previous wars.
 The spirit of democracy and of pa triotism is to be found also in the ar- mics of other nations fighting against German aggression. In addition the National Army will have its own spirit of Americanism. It will have Amer ican enthusiasm, good humor, fairness even to the enemy and seIf-conf- dence. It will go at its work not half heartedly but with a vim. If there are temporary setbacks it will accept them and keep on plugging" These are some of the American traditions that will enter into the spirit of the National Army.
 Fighting in that spirit and with the full strength of the country to back it up, the United States Army can not fail to achieve it's objects. "Once more we shall make good with our lives and fortunes the great faith to which we were born, and a new glory shall shine in the face of our people"
The Seward gateway and the Alaska evening post., 1917-10-02

a process of fair selection the Ma ttouaJ Army has been picked to repre- sent an parts of the country and all groups of the people. Never has America sent forth am army so truly representative of the Nation.
 There are always pcssimists in ev- cry generation who insist that patriot ism is dead or at least decaying. They have not been lacking in recent years. Then comes crisis such as now con fronts us. And always the question Of patriotism is answered by a free outpour.ug of effort, money and blood on the part of citizens of all types in every section of the country This is exactly what is now going ou-and what win continue to go on with iu- crcasfnc force until the war is brot Co 30 victorious end.

Everybody Must Help

Every citizen of the United States now has or will have certain duties to perform, certain sacrifices to make. The burden does not rest wholly upon you and other men who take up arms. It rests in part also upon the men and women who stay behind. For mod en war on a big scale demands that the whole Nation, in a sense, should go to war The tasks required of some may be harder than the tasks required of others, but alI of them are neces- sary in order to make sure of the re- sult
 Many manufacturers and workers often women as well as men-must give up their own work and plans in order to produce war supplies. Those who remain where they now are-be- cause they are engaged in some occu- patton just as necessary in war as in peace, such as farming, mining, run ming railroads, and the like-must go a. their work with redoubled energy and without expecting profits for themselves, it would be a great mis- take if everyone were taken away from these necessary lines of effort in order to join the colors as a soldier. All must carry a heavy burden of tax atiou.
 Certain men-among whom you are one-havo been or will be chosen as representatives ot the Nation to de- fend .gr rights and safety on the bat uefcld. You md your fellow soldiers

Democracy m thc Army

Of course there can be no team work without regularity wo strict discipline. This is equally true of a football OF baseball team. There must also be various ranks and degrees o. authority. And sometimes t.rs nec- cssary organization aud close regu.a- tton creates am impression chat ,ae Army is not dcmocratic
 But the fact of the ease is chat, American soldiers accept che reason- able discipline of the Army readily because they have the good sense to realize that these things arc neces- sary. They accept them without Ios- ing in the least their independence as free citizens.
 Furthermore, American armies are democratic because the path Of promo tion is wide open. Any man who has a reasonable amount Of ability can practice, can study can cultivate the qualities of a soldier aud leader and can work his way up And this is the real test of a democratic army
 In a special sense the National Ar my is democratic. A great democracy must always carry on its affairs thru chosen representatives. You are no doubt familiar with this principle as it is applied in time Of peace Now it is applied in time of war. Through
