PERRY WITH CLU B

Cleveland. June II. - The Athletics
have been the victims of very effective
pitching and hard luck since their ar
rival in Cleveland Friday. In each of
the three games they have scored but
two runs, while the Clevelanders have
registered two fours and a Ave.
Effective pitching by Ensemann, Bagby
and Morton naturally have had some
thing to do with the small scores ac-
quired by the Mackmen. but not alto

that the Athletics have batted in hard

home runs at Shibe Park giving Joe

the Athletics made only three hits off
Guy Morton. George Burns drove to
left what would have been a home run
on any field in the league except those
in Cleveland and Washington. 1t would
have cleared the wall behind the left-
field bleachers at Shibe Park.
Adamss wildness was the principal
cause Of Saturdays defeat. while Vean
Gregg's careless way of fielding bunt s
was his undoing in the Sunday conflict.
OF course. If both teams had fielded per-
fectly Cleveland still would have won
by a score OF 1 to 0.
Larry Gardner has not made hit

Bob Roth has to be given credit for a
daring bit of base running in the fourth
inning. He was on second when Evans
lined to Walker. Tilly slipped and fell
just after making the catch but quickly
arose. He was about to make his re-
turn of the ball to second when Roth
who had been camping on the sack
made dash for third. Walker hastily
changed his aim but his haste caused
him to do just what Roth had counted
on. He threw wildly and Roth scored

LEGISLATIVE NEWS SERVICE.

The General Assembly of North Dakota meets in
extra session on Wednesday. January 23d. 1t is to the
interest of the general public that the session be as brief
as is consistent with the performance of work which is
imperative at this time, and which cannot be delayed I'M
til the regular session without grave injury to the state.
and possibly to the nation. While it is to be expected
that the session will be brief. it is also certain to be in
teresting both from the political standpoint and from
that of the legislation to be enacted.
The Herald has arranged to give its readers full re-
ports of the work of the session so that the developments
may be followed day by day as they occur. Mr.. George
A. Benson, who has been a member of The Herald sta If
for years. will serve as its special correspondent on this
occasion, and will be in Bismarck in advance of the ses-
sion. Mr.. Benson is an experienced newsgatherer and a
capable writer, and The Herald's large family of read
es may rest assured that they will receive prompt and
accurate reports of all the proceedings from him.
Reports will be received direct from Bismarck for
all editions Of the paper over a special wire into The
Herald editorial rooms. and this will insure the publ
cation IN each edition Of the latest available information
up to the moment of going to press.

THE HUMAN MACHINE

In these days OF food conservation, real and imita-
ton. We are learning a great deal about the human
body. its needs. and the quality and quantity of the var.
ious elements which so to build, sustain and energize
1t. We learn that a body of a certain weight and con-
struction is capable of developing so many foot-pounds,
and that it requires so many Galleries and SO many
grams of proteins and what not to keep it going. There
fore, the food for a maj doing a given amount Of work
should be made up of an ounce of this and a pound of
that, and a spoonful of the other, and that a menu thus
proportioned makes the perfect balanced ration.
1t is the fashion in certain circles to compare the
body t. an engine. which, because of its size and the ar
rangement of it's cylinders and pistons, can deliver a
certain power under a given head of steam, and the in
ference is left that all that is necessary is to introduce
into the machine the right quantity of power producing
material as analyzed by the chemist or engineer. and
the thing is done.
The fallacy of all this lies in ignoring the fact that
while the human body is a machine, it is a machine
of a peculiar type. and that it differs in principle from
any mechanism which man has created. The mechani-
cal principle has been permitted to run riot in this just
as it has been permitted to riot through the field Of
psychology. In the latter field some writers have as
sumed that the human mind could be measured and
analyzed, checked and card-indexed, just as if it were
q material substance, inert and unvarying in all its
qualities and reactions.
In this latter field, as it has been exploited by writ
n o L d CerLdln CLASS, Will ana imagination nave been
left entirely out Of consideration, although these are
among the most important impulses Of life. In the
discussion of the body there has been an evasion of the
fact that, while men and women belong to the same
species, the power that has given them life has made
even the physical life Of each differ from that of all
the others.
Because Of the existence of the qualities which tend
toward variety, while we may lay down broad general
izauons in matters affecting the sustenance of the body,
we can do little more than generalize concerning them,
and food must be selected for the individual, not merely
on the basis of its chemical properties, but with refer
once to the personal peculiarities of him who is to use it.
To one person Strawberries act as a poison. Bananas
will produce skin irritation on another. One person
cannot digest onions. and butter is rejected by another.
One eats large quantities Of meat, and thrives on it.
Another avoids meat entirely, and thrives equally we'll.
A big man will eat a small meal and lay on fat, while
a little man will consume enormous quantities of food
and remain thin and scrawney. 1t is as true today as
1t was when it was first written that what is one mans
meat is another mans poison and any system of ra-
tioning that does not make ample allowance for indi-
vidual peculiarities is a delusion and a snare.

AUTHORITY AND ACTION.

The Minneapolis journal is decidedly Of the opinion
that the fuel order is a sad blunder. but comedies that
now we must go through with it, at least so far as these
first five days are concerned. In an editorial on the sub
ject it has the following:
Congressman Sydney Anderson of Minnesota
points out the one redeemlng feature of the situa-
ton, namely, that the administrations far-reaching
blunder may serve to convince the people of the inn
perative need for greater efficiency and co-ordina-
ton in the governments management of war ac-
tivities. If the result is the production of a healthy
and compelling public sentiment that shall force out
the inefficients, slash through the red tape, over
come selfish craftsmanship, and bring about a strong,
alert, centralized management of affairs by the
country's best talents Irrespective of party, perhaps
the tremendous price required of us by the Garfield
order will not be too high.
Whatever else may be said Of the fuel order, It can.
not be charged that it has been com plicated by the use
of red tape. The trouble that most critics find in il
is that there is not enough red tape. The thing was done
suddenly. It was done forcefully. And Mr.. Anderson
and the Journal believe that the people of the countr,
will be so displeased with it that they will bring tt
bear irresistible pressure which will force the organiza.
ton of the entire government on a basis which will per
nit other things to be done in the same way. Odd rea.
soning. isn't it?
What is needed in the organization of the govern.
ment is the possession by a very small number Of mer
of authority to make as gigantic a blunder as Garrleld is
said by some Of his critics to have made. In other words
there must be men with full authority, with their re.
sponsibility clearly understood, and who will be expect.
ed and required to go ahead and act.

Will Hold Tractor
Schools.

OF all the machines a farmer owns
none is more important than his trac.
tor. Especially is this true this year.
Tractors must be in condition to work
day and night il necessary to make
possible the increased production of
lays due to unsatisfactory operation,
no loss from misunderstanding.
To this end the International Har-
vester Company Of America proposes
to hold tractor schools in various
parts Of the country in order that
their users may get the best possible
service put of their tractors.
in Grand Forks. N. D., in the Harvest
err building, January 20, 80 and 31st.
This school will be absolutely free
to all who care to attend, whether
they are tractor owners or not. Moth
ing will be offered for sale at these
schools and there will be no selling
talks. A course Of instruction in how
a tractor works and how to keep it
working will be strictly adhered to.
The instructors are practical trac-
tor and engine men and the course
is laid out en- large charts illustrated
with clear diagrams and described in
simple terms. 1t takes up the reasons
why an engine operates. what takes
place within the cylinder Of an en-
CINE. symptoms that indicate p
preaching trouble. how to loo for
trouble and not overlook it, how to
get the best possible service from q
tractor or engine. new uses for trac.
tors and many other subjects OF spe-
cial interest to men in this locality.
Those who attend the school will be
encouraged toaask questions on any
subject in connection with tractors
and engines. These questions will be
answered at the end OF each schooi
session. There will be demon.s -.
selves. -.
Every farmer who owns a tractor
or engine should attend this school
but, more important still. he should
bring with him the man who operates
his tractor. 81

PAYING II BILLS.

Who is to pay the bills for tho shutdown under the
fuel order? The government thinks that the laborers
who are thrown out of. employment by the order should
cases. this is done. Employers have voluntarily assumed
that obligation. But in some cases employers say they
cannot afford this outlay for which they receive no re-
turn, and in others the conditions are such that compli-
ance with the suggestion, or request. is, if not impos-
sible, attended with great difficulties.
The situation is particularly difficult in those in
dustries where piece work is the rule. and where there
is a constant shifting Of employees. In some industries
it is the common practice of great numbers of laborers in
the unskilled occupations to work a day or two. draw
their pay and quit. Later they may so to work again in
the same plant, or they may find temporary employment
in another. The problem of keeping a regular force is
one which many manufacturers have tried in vain TO
solve. In such cases as those outlined it is evident that
it will be difficult to arrive at any satisfactory basis OF
payment. even assuming that the institution can stand
the drain.
Aside from the difficulty of putting any plan. in
operation in such cases there is involved in the whole
situation the relation of operating expenses to earnings.
The product of a business must be sold for enough to
pay all operating expenses and fixed charges or it must
quit. The amount of profit to which the owners are en-
titled as their fair return for the risks that they assume
its. the concern must take in as much as it pays out. If
additions are made to the payments additions must be
made to the price of the product. and that means that
the burien is necessarily shifted to the consumers of the
product.
