u0W I AM DOING MY BIT
 TO HELP WIN THE WAR
ipy F. E. McGrath, Travelling Pas
 senper Agent, D. < H.)

senger Agent, D. X H. New York, Oct. 8.-When the Unit ed States entered the war last April, | was pursuing my duties as travelling passenger agent for the Delaware and Hudson company with headquarters in l New York City.
 Today, l spend an average of six teen hours a day in the interest of Uncle Sam, no as a soldier but as a civilian worker. Like most men who had specialized on one certain line of work pondered at the time war was declared as to just what l could do to help.
 After much thought, decided that
 inasmuch as the railroads were the
 third arm of national defense, the
 army and navy being virtually help
 less without them, 1 could best serve
 my country by sticking to the line of
 work in which my training had been
 secured.
 Shortly after that decision, I was
 sent to the training camp at Platts-
 burg to represent the railroads SUD-
 plymg that camp and to cooperate in
 every way with the army officials to
 secure the prompt handling and dis
 patch of troop trains and supplies.
 Since that time I have been putting m on an average of sixteen hours a oay for Uncle Sam and I hope I have been able to accomplish a great deal u 'ne way Of relieving the camp off eets Of transportation arrangements.
 My principle duty is to cooperate ' the representative of the railroads '"" 'ne commander and quartermas- ~f m transportation matters.

ROWLAND SETS EXAMPLE
 FOR BIG LEAGUES
(By H. c. Hamilton, United Press
 Staff Correspondent

S~AA oOAiSopOIluciII.J
 New York, Oct 16.-Clarence Row. land, the bush leaguer, the man who has enjoyed the laughs of his con- temporaries, and who has laughed last and heartily, set an example just before the last worlds series that should be food for the thoughts of his rivals. He needed money more than did John J. McGraw. He needed it just as much as Eddie Collins or Christy Mathewson, but this product of Iowa small towns. minor leaguer, turned down a fat offer from a syndi- cate that wanted him to "write" his worlds series views.
 Like Ban Johnson, president of the American League, Rowland believes not in the annual swindle that offers the public stories under signatures of the games great stars. He knew then and knows now that not one player, with the single exception of Eddie
  Collins, writes matter credited to him. and it is extremely doubtful if Collins found time during the last big games to really write a decent account of the contests.
 Johnson has placed ban on these stories. The National Commission has frowned on the practice, yet no one seems able to put a stop to it. Eddie Collins signed a contract this year in the face of Johnson's and the commissions orders. Czar that he is, Johnson is finding trouble controlling this feature of baseball.
 Christy Mathewson is the most con sistent of these writers. Matty is capable of writing his own stuff and does pound out some of it, but his duties as manager of the Reds, has prevented his devotion of much time to the labor. The stories though, are still running but their popularity has ceased.
 Rowland is rapidly taking rank with the greatest leaders in baseball. He is reaching the popularity en- joyed by John McGraw in his handling of temperamental ball players. Row land has some strange hammered play CTS on his pay roll temperamental as they grow. but he has been sliding along with them without any trouble. He doesn't make a lot of noise about it. He doesn't shout around nor tear his hair, but he gets results. He is one of the most popular men in base ball among newspaper men. for he meets them the right way. He trav- els in the same coach with them. He does his flaming with them. There is no attempt to conceal or evade. He answers questions the best he can and trusts the men to respect conf dences he places with them.

IRON MINING INDUSTRIES
 FOR SOUTHEAST MISSOURI

Cape Girardeau, Mo-, Oct. l6.-With an increased demand for iron ore in all parts of the world today, and the extensive development of iron mines in many sections of the United States, the iron ore district in the vicinity of Fremont, Cart county, may soon be one of the most active iron mining sections in this part of the country.
 This is the prediction ventured by mining men following the announce ment that plans are progressing rap idly for the construction of blast furnace in Fremont. The Pittsburg firm behind the undertaking is rush ing work on the project and hopes to employ 200 men in one furnace.

ATHLETICS ARE
ENDORSED BY
WAR SECRETARY
Burroughs Asked for Ath'
letes in Service During
"A. A. u. Meet.

New York, Aug. 1s.-Further en-
dorsement Of competitive athletics by
Secretary Of War Baker was an
nounced here today by ". r. G. Lacey
Of st. Louis, chairman of. h regis
tration committee Of the Western as
ISOLATION A. A. u. Mr.. Lacey, who
has been touring the east in the In
terest Of the Amateur Athletic union
track and field championships to be
held in st. Louis at the end Of the
month, arrived here from Washing
ton this afternoon.
He stated that in a conversation
with Secretary Baker relative to sport,
the latter said that he was In favor
Of athletics and endorsed the holding
Of the a.. A. U. championship games
this season as usual. A request for
now serving with h army, in order
that they might compete at st. Louis,
was referred to Adjutant General
Mccain.
The A. A. U. official was informed
by Adjutant General Mccain that
while 1t would be impossible to issue
q general order granting furloughs to
absence might be granted in special
cases. He advised Chairman Lacey to
inform athletes insthe service to make
individual application for furloughs
and that he would consider the fact
that they were to participate In the
championships as sufficient cas- for
granting the same, should such ap-
pdcations not interfere with other
orders, such as the movements of the
unit to which the applicants belong.
Lacey stated that he had found
that military training has greatly i'm
proved the athletes physical condi-
ton and with reasonable practice at
their ~specialties. he expected excellent
performances at the title meet. He
said that the stadium track, where the
games will be held, was in perfect
shape and that with favorable weather
conditions several new records were
likely to be made by the athletic stars
who will compete for the national
championships.
