NO NIere In Garden.

The Cubs have two more expert
enced worlds series lads in the gar
den. Dode Paskert was with the
Phils two years ago and played
against the Red Sox- Leslie Mann
was with the Boston Braves in 1914
Neither should be alarmed at the
thought Of battling for top honors.
Followers Of the Cubs are looking
for great things from Charlie Hol-
locher the wizard shoftstop. They
believe he will outplay any other man
in both inields. 1t is risky having
such thoughts. for the history of all
past worlds series shows that, the
greatest stars OF the season just end
Cd have seldom lived up to their repu-
tations.
Three examples stand out most par
ticularly as proof OF this statement.
lIonus Wagner. Ty Cobb, and Iris
Speaker. Wagner was expected to
crush the Boston Club by himself in
1903, but he failed miserably. Ty
Cobb's poor work for the Tigers
against the Pirates and the Cubs is a
part OF baseball history. What iris
Speaker did not do as a member of
the Boston club IN worlds series is
also history. Therefore, Charlie Hol-
locher will have to make good before
It will be put In the records.

In the ranks Of the Chicago Cubs
are six regulars who have had worlds
series experience, though with other
teams George Tyler was George
Stallings' marvellous left-hander in the
victory OF the Boston Braves in 1914
over the Mackmen. Charlie Deal,
through the unexpected injury to
} "Red" Smith, got into that series and
held his own against the enemy.
Bill Killifer, now expected to shine
as the foremost catcher OF the series
OF 1918, was with Pat Moran's Phila-
delphia champions, though a sore arm
kept him from playing, but he went
through all the excitement
Fred Merkle's worlds series trou-
bles as a member of the New York
Giants are too well known to require
repeating. Aerkle is just q steady
player who does well enough until
compelled to think quickly. Cub fans
are hoping KilIifer and Hollocher will
have to do all the thinking in the
pinches.

This might be termed a military
tournament in every sense of the
word. Practically all of the players
are engaged in some sort OF war work.

simplicity and economy as their first
consideration. The present tendency

to have a lasting effect in fashioning

PSYCHOLOGY OF WAR
ON WOME;N'S CLOTHES
The Girl In 10 form.

Every war has had Its influence upon
Tomens clothes. Sometimes 1t has
been color that has sprung into fash
lon with the bugle call to arms, some
times 1t Is a feutheP, az the coQue
feather; sometimes il is braid and
military swing to the lines Of suit or
dress.
Before the United States entered the
war Russian Cossack suits, coQue
feathers, braided Jackets, snappy suits
with a military dash to them that al
most sang Listen to the band" were
the vogue. War muffs, fabulous In
price, but economical in fur, French
blue, brass buttons and any number OF
adoptions from male military attire
were seized upon by Paris designers
and shipped to America as the style.
But since the United States entered
the war American women have Joined
the workers Of the world. The infiu-
ence of war on their clothes was first
noticed when feathers began to disap-
pear and the Russian Cossack suit and
high French toque gave place to the
plain American tailored suit with SEN
sible pockets and the useful sailor hat

Building the Pyramids.

In looking at pictures of the pyra-
mids and the Sphinx everyone has Won
dered how these great monuments
could be built in an age when there
was no such thing as a steam derrick.
Discussion upon the point has run
through the centuries.
An English engineer has hit upon
what appears to be the true explana.
ton His opinions are supported by
the evidence Of ancient inscriptions
on tombs and temples. This engineer
states that in building a pyramid the
Egyptians constructed an inclined
roadway to the level Of which the work
had reached.
AS the pyramid grew taller the an
gle Of the road constantly grew sleeper
and its length greater. Up this road
way passed all the material required
in building the pyramid, hauled by
slaves and pack animals.

MESSAGE OF The
GREAT UNITED WAR
DRIVE FOR WOMB

For the first time In the history Of
this nation, women Of every religious
creed have been called upon to stand
united in one great non-sectaria'
cause.
The Government has just sanctioned
O United War Drive for seven differ
ent organizations: the Young Mems
Christian Association, the Young We
mems Christian Association, the Ma
tional Catholic War Council CAnights
of Columbus), the Jewish Welfare
Board, the War Camp Community, the
American Library Association, and the
Salvation Army.
One hundred and seventy million
Ave hundred thousand dollars is the
goal set for the campaign. 1t IS the
largest single gift ever asked of the
American people and the women OF
America have heard the call.
Already there is springing up new
comradeship among the women of this
country, a new determination to stand
together to win the war.
What do creeds matter or dogmas
when sons, brothers and husbands are
In khaki on the fields of France2
Women of America have caught the
fire Of the spirit Of women over
There" When the Allied Congress Of
Women met In Paris last month-one
message was sent back to the United
States:
"All the womanhood Of the Allied
nations must stand united for victory.
Think victory, talk victory, believe vic
tory"
And back of this great united force
Of women from the far ends Of the
earth there Is now standing another
unified arIny-the woman power Of
America.
Soon we shall see new thing-wo'
men who know in their hearts that
democracy Is as much part Of wo-
mans world as 1t Is Of mans world,
and that 1t Is just as surely woman's
lob to make democracy safe for the
world as it Is O mans Job to make the
world safe for democracy.
Women of every religious creed are
standing now for one goal-Victory.
To that end the only woman's organ
izatlon In the great United War Drive
the Y. w. G. Alas sent out chal-
lenee to the women to Carry On-fos
victory.
It is no longer a question of when
will the war endT" bet when will we
have victory?'
The women OF America have under
stood.

Species of WhippoorwiIl.

The cry Of the whippoorwill is Its
song and only the male utters it. The
female is silent. When it is singing,
just as likely as not the whippoorwill
is sitting on the ground, although it
sings from the treetops at times. It
doesn't sing after midnight. From
dark until about 10 o'clock is its favor
lite time for singing-or yelling. In the
South there is q kindred bird, some
what larger than the Northern whip
poorwill, which is sometimes called
'chuck-will's-widow," because that Is
what some folks assert 1t says. And
in England there Is bird very similar
to the whippoorwill known as the
"goat-sucker," because it is supposed
to obtain Its food from the milk Of
gOatS.-EXchange.

Ideas for New Fuel

Peat and chalk are being extensively
used for briqueting in Canada. The
peat is mixed with coal breeze and
then pressed into briquettes. Such
fuel has been found efficient and eco
nomical. Chalk also, Of which there
are large deposits in Canada, can be
converted into a profitable fuel. If the
chalk is pulverized and then combined
with q certain percentage Of breeze
and solidifled tar, the mixture being
compressed into small briquettes or
pebbles about the size Of an egg, the
briquettes burn with perfect satisfac-
ton. The fuel has the advantage of
being smokeless, has q high calortc
value, and burns freely-Chicago

Her Prophecy Came True.

A story is told to the effect that ST.
mon Bolivar, when he was a child Of
seven, had for a playmate In Spain q
boy Of about his own age named Fer
dinand, the future Spanish king. One
day, while engaged in a game Of bat
tledore and shuttlecock, stroke by
young Bolivar knocked the cap from
Ferdinand's head. Whereupon an old
nurse, who witnessed the occurrence,
and who was deemed a soothsayer, de-
clared that some day Bolivar would
knock the crown from the kings head.
Which feat he certainly did accom-
plish, so far as South America was
concerned. ~

Preparations to meet the new
conditions which will follow
peace are actively under way and
a survey of the Industrial field
leads to the conviction that the
plans are further advanced than
is generally believed. Heads Of
important industrial corporations
do not subscribe to the pessimis-
tic sentiments expressed in some
quarters that the end of the war
will seriously unsettle business.
On the contrary, captains of in
dustry are planning to keep right
on, although some of them will
curtail operations until necessary
changes can be made in machin-
cry which is now devoted exclu-
sively to war work. Much of
the present output of industries
is just as essential in peace times
as it is for war purposes.

Emperor William signed a letter
of abdication Saturday morning at
the German Grand Headquarters
in the presence of Crown Prince
Frederick William and Field
Marshal Hindenburg, according
to a dispatch from Amsterdam to
the Exchange Telegraph Com
pany.
The German Crown Prince
signed his remuneration to the
throne shortly afterward.
1t is believed that King Ludwig
of Bavaria and King Frederick
August of Saxony also have abdi-
Gated.
Before placing his signature to
the document an urgent message
from Philip Scheidemann, who
was Socialist member without
portfolio in the Imperial Cabinet,
was handed to the Emperor.
He read it with a SILVER. Then
he signed the paper, saying:
1t may be for the good Of Ger
many"
The Emperor was deeply NOV
ed. He consented to sign the
document only when he received
the news of the latest events in
the EN- pire.
Serious food difficulties are ex-
pected in Germany owing to the
stoppage of trains. The Council
of the Regency will take the
most drastic step to re-establish
order.

TERMS BIND GERMANY HAND
AND FOOT

When Germany has complied
with the demands made upon
her, not only will she have demo-
bilized her army, dismantled her
navy and delivered up her stolen
goods, but she will have given
her enemies possession of all her
territory west of the Rhine, she
will have turned over her ports
to them and will have liberated
every Allied prisoner of war.
This done, Germany will be i'm
potent. She will be bound hand
and foot. Not only will she be
unable again to make war, but
she will have given her enemies
perhaps the riches of her terri
tory to secure the obligations
which she must enter into before
she can make peace with the ma
tions against which she warred
for these four years. And the
importance of this cannot be min
imized.
Especially is this true at "a time
when Germany is seething with
revolution, time when she has no
stable government, at time the
Kaiser is in flight and Bolshevik-
ism is raising its angry head
from end to end of the empire.
The world does not know and
cannot know with whom it is to
deal in the matter of peace. It
does not know what power will
rise up in Germany. 1t does not
know when a responsible govern
ment will be formed and empow-
cred by German people to carry
out internatinal covenants.
Accepting these conditions,
Germany can fight no more.
Great masses of the troops of her
enemies will occupy broad belts
of her territory, the passage of
the Rhine will be closed to her,
while her own troops must retire
to points 20 miles east of Rhine.
AS a guarantee of the good faith
of her surrender, she puts her
self in the power of the United
States and of the Allies.
