occasion for criticism in the fact that
while women are unusually efficient in
war activities this autumn they 90 about
looking even better dressed than ever.
This is largely because over fussy frocks

German Humor is Lacking.

Stephen I.eacock, in the New York Times.
DO you know what is the most demo-
cratic form of literature? 1t is humorous
literature. For OF humorous literature
the only test IS: do they laugh or do they
not laugh? No king ever posed as a
humorist. No king ever was a hunorist.
that is. an Intentional humor!st.
And one proof of the democracy OF
humor Is Its absence in Germany. Is
there any one not a German to whom the
German joke appeals" The German joke,
like the peace of God, passeth all under
standing.
Real humor Is universal in it's appeal:
it's popularity extends beyond national
boundaries. Mark Twain IA been trans
lated into every language. and he is az
funny In French or modern Greek az he
Is in English. In exchange for Mark
Twain we import Tartarin. Charles Dick
ems is the property of all the world; we
hin OF him as q great hulnorist instead
of as a nan who wrote to amuse the
English. But German humor does not
cross the Rhine. The world knows Ger
man philosophy n German science and
German scholarship. but It knows moth
ing OF German humor. And the reason
for this must be that there is no German
humor to know.
The only German humor. the existence
Of which l will admit, is the old German
Observation-Disclosures" and the like.
But this folkhumor ~antedates modern
Germany by centuries. 1t is a part of
our old Teutonic heritage. And 'Strewel-
peter" has no place in what today is con
sidered humor in Germany.

snapped at last. The situation had
been sucked dry. It's actors and
auditors felt that there was moth

their positions, to breathe more

"That's perfect-and perfectly

He started to leave Smith, but
hesitated.
"Tell me-" he urged; whats

puzzling you this minute. What is
it?"
Smith looked at him seriously.

gravely, whether Id better give

"Give up" Waller exclaimed.

line in spite of hail, high water,
and hiccoughs! That's what [
would do. Now, I'm going up and
get my story out. The o n the
better. I'll drop back here as soon
as possible.
He shook Smith hand and
went back to the cab, directing the
chauffeur to go to his newspaper
office.
He stepped in, took his seat, lit
a cigar, and then, as if ON impulse
put his head out the window and
drawled to the driver:
"It may be of interest to you to
know that the man you brought
down here has got more real nerve
than you ever saw-enough nerve
to stand up against what would
cut the heart out of IL, O00, 600 Go
liaths in two and a half seconds!"

ceai," he said to Waller, and
added to Mallon: Imagine, if YOU
can, some of the degrees of my in
finite misery. Picture my yearn-
ing to go back through the years
and weep beside the grave of one
whose startled soul, following
folly with me, may have met death
unaware. Measure, if you can, the
fine torture born OF the fear that
some time, somewhere, l stilled
the laughter OF a child or taught
a woman to weep anew"
Tie pointed, with lightning-like
gesture, to Mary.
Right here, in our very pres
ence, is the concrete example of
what | mean. Ii | have known this
woman, it have brought her to
her tears, what would / not give if

His voice rang with scorn.
And yet, my enemies think to
use me as an argument in behalf
OF whisky! They believe they can
say to the country, Look at him,
think OF what he suffers, and then
be persuaded that what he preach

Tbs scorn possessed the air, like
4 %wrlthing, flashing, live thing.
Let them say all that, and let
them boast. Whisky did these
things to this man. Therefore,
mothers, give whisky to your sons.
Whisky hurt John Smith, who
cries out against it. Whisky tore
down his ideals and wiped out the
dreams of his youth. Therefore,

He stood with upf1ung right

attitude a brave defiance.
Edith, springing to her feet and
indicating Mary Leslie with a ges-

They walked a little farther i'm

"Of %course,' Smith said at last,
"I'm wondering what effect it

"And I'm wondering" Waller
retorted reproachfully, why you
didn't confide in me long ago
The agitator smiled slightly,

votion to him.
"Oh," he said, "what could
have been the use?"
They were conversing .jerkily,
tersely, as men do when they are
greatly moved.

tough on you," Cholliewollie said.
~ never suspected how very
touch it was"
Smith was looking straight
ahead.
cit has been HE'LL" he agreed
simply.
And yet, you have so much to
make you feel at this moment
very proud"
"Ah," Smith exclaimed. with a
touch of impotence, chow can 1
feel proud? What can a man
boast when he put in more than 80
years of his life doing so little that
he left behind him neither sign
nor trail? Why, the only way 1
can guess at my age is to take
what the doctors deduct from my
general physical condition. And
how can | feel at ease? If what
that woman has just said is true
if a fractional part of it is true
how can | really know that there
ism t murder behind me, that some
night l didn't leave a stark, cold
thing lying ON the roadside with
it's sightless eyes turned toward
the moon? How can | know that
the faces of those whom 1 should
have loved have not been ravaged
by grief because of me? Those are
the things. the thoughts, the fears,
that swoop down on me and blot
out at times all the light in my
soul"
To Cholliewollie, he seemed too
near a breakdown. He had never
heard him speak with such bitter
ness.
"There is this to be remem-
bered, the newspaper man took a
new tack: "the Leslie woman's

READING TAKES
HILL PENNANT:
STANLEY PLUCKY

For the third straight time the
Reading baseball team shut out the
Stanley aggregation by to score
last evening. and clinched the post
series, winning the Allison Hill
League pennant. In addition to the
pennant, the Railroaders will also re-
ceive loving cup that will be award
ed to the team members next week.
Monday night Reading won to 0
in the best contest of the series. The
Tuesday night affair was a 10 to 0
farce, while the victors tailed quin-
tet of runs last evening during the
time that the whitewash was applied.
Put Up PIucky Fight
While the victories were decisive,
credit must be given to the Stanley
players for the plucky fight put up
last evening. Captain Pete" Shick-
ley was the life of the team all sea-
son, and last evening he went from
catcher to the pitching position and
held the Readingites to seven scat
tered hits.
In the first round the winners made
a duo of runs on a base on balls to
George Levan. He scored a moment
later on Wertz's three -bagger to CEN
ter. The latter crossed the rubber on
Lescpre's neat single.
The third saw the final runs of the
series scored by Reading. Catcher
Kline made his SECOND hit, stole sec
ond and came home on an error of

Mack Cans Joe Bush
For Balance of Season

Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 23.-"Bullet
joe Bush, Connie Mack's best pitch
er and worlds series hero, has been
suspended for the remainder of the
1917 playing season, fined the money
he would have earned and sent back
to Philadelphia.
Secretary Joe Oil, of the Athletics
bought Bush ticket and escorted
the pitcher to the els train last
evening, carrying out Mack's orders.
Manager Mack and his pitcher
were the principals of wordy argu-
ment on the Philadelphia bench af-
ter Bush had been removed from the
game in the fifth inning yesterday
because the Indians were hitting him
all over the lot.
I'm through with baseball for
good-at least I'll never pitch for
such a rotten club as Mack's," Bush
said to friends before he boarded the
train.
Connie Mack made the following
statement last night:
suspended Bush for the season
and am through with him. He has
not treated me right and he knows
1t. l am not sore because he was
batted hard by the Cleveland club
to-day, but I am sore because he has
failed to observe training rules. In
other words he has not taken care
of himself all season and has de-
veloped into what I call a rowdy.
don't want a rowdy on my ball
club"
Asked is Bush was on the market
and would be sold or traded, Mack
replied:
mot this season. He will not play
in organized baseball again this year.
1 have not decided what I shall do
with him next year"

lersburg has three stars. They have
had miscues, but that Is due to the
fact that they go after everything.
Lebanon Is going to fight hard to
win the first pennant in the Bethle-
hem Steel Corporation League. In
dications are that a post-season
series will be necessary to decide
pennant honors.
Heating and Babbington, former
New York State League stars, are
big factors in Lebanon's position IN
the Bethlehem Steel Corporation
League. Both are hard hitters. Keat-
ing is playing a sensational game
at short.
Reading copped the Allison Hill
pennant, and the silver trophy. Hon.
ors came through superior baseball
playing. Every player on the win
ming team was factor and deserves
the highest praise. Stanley A. c.. re-
mained in the series until the finish.
With the exception of the players
who quit in Tuesdays game, the
Stanley boys showed pluck They
were outplayed and outgeneraled.
The proposition to have a series
between Reading champions of the
Allison Hill League and West Eud
A. A. for the city championship is
a good one. 1t will mean good sport
for baseball fans. Five games should
be the plan, with two on the Hill
and two at West End field, the fifth
TO be played on neutral ground in
the event of tie.
All praise to Company boys.
They can play baseball. If oppor-
tunity is afforded, they will be heard
from in the Southern series. That
they can clean up any soldier team is
the belief here.

The best sundog in the big leagues.
Here. in sentence, you have the
opinion of a majority of National
league managers regarding George
Burns, leftfelder of the Giants.
Burns is rated by many as the
greatest sun fielder since the days of
Wee Willie Keeler, who, though he
raced the sun day after day, was sell
dom known to muff a fly ball. and
whose batting eye was not dimmed
by the rays of Old Sol.
This is Burns sixth year as a men,
Der of the Giants. He came to the
New York club from Utica in the
spring of 1912 and stuck through the
season, although he played in oniv
twenty-nlne games. Since that time
Burns has missed few regularly
scheduled games with the clan of
McGraw, and he goes on from year
to year, hitting and fielding as con-
sistently as though the very turning
of the clock depended upon his be-
ing in the lineup.
