because if it gets into the cylinder
it will never stop grinding and so Will
damage the engine. Be very careful OF
this particular. Then replace all the
parts and test compression as before
Another source of alive trouble is
push-rod adjustment. There should be
a space Of few thousandths of an inch
between push -od and valve stem. If
the space is too small the valve will
leak compression after it has warmed
and expanded. If the space is too wide
the valve will not stay open as long
as it should. In either case the engine
loses power. Adjuet the valve clear
ance in accordance with the manufact
urer's instructions, and make sure that
the adjustments are properly secured
or they will work loose, causing more
trouble than before.

COLLEGE FOR SOLDIERS

The government must have trained
men as officers and as technical eX-
perts for army service. These train
ed men will be secured in the future
from the Students Army Training
Corps. If you are prepared to enter
college your duty is plain. The first
thing to do is to enroll in some South
Dakota institution for the S. A. T. c.
training. Send for an enrolment
blank before you forget it. Young
men who join the Students Army
Training Corps are not in a deferred
soldiers in the United States army.
AS soldiers, all must live together in
barracks on the college campus. They
will be carefully observed and tested
for the purpose of determining their
capacities and abilities as officer ma
terial. After a certain interval a man
will be classified and may be "as-
signed to military duty in one of the
following ways:
(a) "He may be transferred to a

(b) "He may be transferred to a
non-commissioned officers training

(c) "He may be assigned to the

for limited specified time.
(d) He may be assigned to the vo-
cational training section of the corps
for technical training of military
value.
(e) "He may be transferred to a
cantonment for duty with troops as a
private"
Members of the Students Army
Training Corps will each week take
IL hours of military drill and theoret-
ical military instruction and IA hours
of the technical courses offered by
the institution or allied subjects Of
an academic character. OF these IA
hours, 3 must be given to a course in
the history of our war aims. The
allied list of subjects named by the
war department is English. French,

league championships faced each
other again today in the second game
of the last world series to be played
for the duration of the war.
Manager Mitchell of the Cubs and
the players themselves were confident
that the American League title hold
ers would not be able to repeat this
afternoon. They characterized the
performance yesterday of Babe Ruth
as a ''fuke." Ruth's bat had been
counted on as a factor for the Red
Sox. but his pitching ability had been
discounted by local supporters, who
declared his peculiar style Of delivery
would be easy for the Cubs. On the
contrary, however, Ruth kept the To-
Gals puzzled throughout the game, and
at no time was he in danger. The
most redoubtable National League
sluggers failed to connect with his
fast one. and the irorclad support of
his teammates prevented any bunch
ing of hits which might have affected
the outcome
Tyler for the Cubs and Bush for the
Red Sox were picked by the fans to
start in today's contest. Neither
manager would make known his
choice definitely. Tyler is known.

COMISKEY PARK. September g.
The Boston Red Sox won the open
ing game of the 1918 world series
here yesterday, defeating the Chicago
Nationals, 1 to 0, in a game marked
principally by air-tight pitching. The
winning run resulted from the first

Of the Chicago pitcher being follow
ed by two sharp singles by White
man and McInnis, Shean scoring on
the second hit with the only run Of
the game.
Tho Cubs had only two good OPEN
ings for runs, but both Of them came
with two men out In the hrst In
stance Merkle was passed. and Pick,
UNEQUAL to tho task Of driving in the
run. In the second instance, Deal
raised the hopes of the Chicago fans
by driving a long hit to left, but it
fell fouls and his next attempt was
captured by Whiteman.
The game lacked almost all spec
tacular features which usually &C
companies world series contest, but
this had no effect on the quality of
play, which was worthy of champion
teams of major leagues.
The fine pitching Of the opposing
left-handers, Vaughn and Ruth. gave
the fielders little chance for stunts.
and as a consequence the crowd had
almost no opportunity to cheer.
Score:
