VOLCANOES IN ARIZONA

An interesting report on the San
Franciscan volcanic field, Arizona, an
area of about 5000 square miles south
of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado,
is available for free distribution by
the United States Geological Survey,
Department of the Interior. This re-
port-Professional Paper 76-contains
brief description of the geography
of the field and gives detailed descrip-
tons of the volcanoes and lava fields.
1t relates the volcanic history of the
region and correlates the periods of
eruption with the general history of
the surrounding country. There have
been three general periods of volcanic
activity in the San Franciscan vol
canic field, each followed by an in
terval of uplift and erosion. The
latest outbreak doubtless represents
the final feeble eruptions in a long
cycle of volcanism.

HEROES OF WAR

Telling of his experience in a
French hospital, Coningsby Dawson,
lieutenant in the Canadian Field Ar
tillery, pays high tribute to the cour-
age and selfforgetfulnes Of the
wounded men. He writes in Good
Housekeeping:
men forget their own intirmities in
their endeavor to help each other.
Before the war we had phrase which
has taken on a new meaning now; we
used to talk about lending hand.
Today we lend not only hands, but
arms and eyes and legs. The Won
derful comradeship learned in the
trenches has taught men to lend their
bodies to each other-out Of two
MANNED bodies to make up one that
is whole, and sound, and shared, You
saw this all the time in hospital, A
man who had only one leg would pal
up with a man who had only one arm.
The one-armed man would wheel the
one-legged man about the garden in
chair; at meal-times the one-legged
man would cut up the one-armed
mans food for him. They had both
lost something, but by pooling what
was left they managed to own COM
plete body.
"There is point want to make
clear before l forget 1t. All these
men, whether they are capturing Hun
dug-outs at the Front or taking pris-
oner their own despair in English
hospitals, are perfectly ordinary and
normal. Before the war they were
shop-assistants cab-drivers, plumb
ers, lawyers, vaudeville artists, They
were men of no heroic trainin. But
something has happened to them since
they marched away in khaki-some-
thing that has changed them They
are as completely remade as st. Paul
was after he had his vision on the
road to Damascus. They have brought
their vision back with them to civilian
life, despite the lost arms and legs
which they scarcely seem to regret;
their souls still triumph over the bod
lily and the temporal.
"Often at the Front have thought
of Christs own explanation of His
own unassailable peace-an explana-
ton given to His disciples at the Last
Supper, Immediately before the walk
to Gethsemane, BE Of good cheer |
have overcome the world Overcom-
ing the world, as l understand, it is
overcoming self. Fear, in its final
analysis, is nothing but selfishness. A
man who is afraid in an attack isn't
thinking of his pals and how quickly
terror spreads; he isn't thinking Of
the glory that will accrue to his regi-
ment or division if the attack is a
success he isn't thinking of what he
can do to contribute to that success ;
he isn't thinking of the splendor of
forcing his spirit to triumph over
WEAKNESS and nerves and the abnom-
nations that the Huns are chucking
at him. He's thinking merely of how
he can save his worthless skill and
conduct his entirely unimportant body
to a place where there are no shells.
"In London as saw the workaday,
unconscious nobility of the MANNED
and wounded, the words, 4 have over
come the world, took an added depth.
All these men have an T-have-over-
come-the-world' look in their faces.
1t is comparatively easy for soldier
with traditions and ideals at his back
to face death calmly, to be calm in
the face Of life, as these chaps are,
takes a graver courage"

WHITE SOX OWNERS ARE
 HAPPY OVER EXEMPTIONS

at home to take care of his mother. Should the exemption board turn him down in this contention Alexander will don the drab gray of Uncle Sam and enter one of the cantonments. Should he be exempted he has assured his boss that he will go out for a new hurling record.
 All those stories about Weeghman being deposed as head of the Cubs were manufactured out of flimsy cloth. This was shown when the Cubs executive virtually elected him. self president of thee Tub for 1918. Nearly all the stockholders gave Weeghman proxies and told him to vote them. He did and he was un- animously chosen to succeed himself as head of the North Side team. It was Weeghman who put the Cubs in business and it was Weeghman who used convincing language to get J. Ogden Armour, William WrigIey, Jr., and A. D. Lasker and other men of wealth interested in the team. These men are back of the Cubs boss in all his moves. They backed him in getting Mitchell and they helped him SiSA AlGAduu6I. Iu6y even approved his move in cutting Charley Williams, the old-timer, off the Cubs payroll.
 Don't imagine we're through buy ing players" says President Weegh- man. We are just waiting around for weather conditions to improve and perhaps in a few weeks prices will drop a little. I'll attend the spring meeting of the National League in New York, where I hope to sign a star infielder''
 | President Johnson of the American League, accompanied by his Filus Achates, Billy Harridge, returned to Chicago Saturday after a confab with Barney Dreyfuss, representative of the | National League in Pittsburgh, where the annual schedules of the majors
 were drafted. MT. Johnson is more hopeful over the baseball outlook than he has been for some time. The slow
 ness of the government in moving troops and the delays that are keep ing so many of the soldiers of Uncle
 Sam in this country lead the Ameri- can executive to the belief something | is stirring in the way of baseball Ipeace. Then again it will require lots
 of time to move the troops already
 in the cantonments and their places
 will be filled by those in Class One
 Most of the major league players are r arried and many of these have been placed in Class Four.
 It seems very much as though the Cubs will go through with their plans
 to train at Pasadena, Cal, this spring
 and that the White SoX will do their conditioning at Mineral Wells, Tex Reports went the rounds that the Cubs would train in Florida and that President Comiskey was considering
 the availability of Excelsior Springs,

 manager went on record favoring

EVERYBODY MUST PAY INTO CAME
 UNDER RULING

Though Internal Revenue Commis- major leagues representatives who conferred with him about some ob- scure points connected with collection of the war tax on admissions that he could not give decisions offhand and asked that the questions submitted to him be put in writing. still a letter from one of the commissioners depu- ties to the internal revenue collector at Louisville seems to give a line on the government policy that has been the subject of inquiry.
 This is of particular interest in con- nection with collection of the war tax shall be exempt. The letter of the internal revenue official holds no per son not a bona f1de employe of the club can be admitted on a pass with out paying the tax. That means that newspaper baseball writers must pay the tax, in spite of previous state ment that they would not, and this too, though it is understood at thea ters, newspaper writers have been ad- mitted without the tax on the theory that it was part of their employment to go and criticize the show Also telegraph operators, sent to the ball park on duty to detail games over the wire must pay the pass tax.
 More than that, if the letter sent out is to stand, even the pop and peanut boys will have to pay tax before they can get into the grounds to ped dle their wares. This seems ridicu- lous, but it is the ruling made by the wise men whose duty it is to see that your Uncle Sam gets his
 The letter was in answer to an in Quiry from officials of the Louisville American Association club and indi- cates in it's reference to raises in ad- mission prices the plan the Associa- ton may have in view for making even change. The inference is that the association plans to make the bleacher price 27 cents and the grand stand price TT cents, with this idea in view, for the letter in answer says:
 "The tax imposed by the act is upon the public and not upon the baseball association in question. If the asso- citation desires to increase bleachers and reserved seats from 25 to 27 cents and from 75 to 77 cents, respec- lively in order to help defray the ex: penses of the club it will be necessary for the purchasers to pay three cents on 27 cent tickets and eight cents on 77-cent tickets

Moose Sullivan and George Morris will be carried along as substitutes but will get into the double and single events.
 Captain Lindsey yesterday for warded the entry blanks, with checks attached, to Secretary Abe Langtry at Cincinnati.
