MARINES DEFEAT
co. 6 and WIN
LEAGUE PENkhNT

The Twilight League closed yester-
day afternoon when the Marines de-
feated Company G by the score of
to o, the Company 6 team being con-
siderably weakened by the absence OF
several of its regular players.
BY winning this game the Marines
have cinched the pennant.
Much credit is due to the Marines
capturing the coveted rag and for the
clean brand of baseball that they have
played throughout the season. They
took the lead in the early part of the
season and though they have had
many hard contests no team was able
to wrest from them first place, al
though for a time every team in the
league had an excellent chance of
winning.
The fact that the Twilight League
has closed does not mean that thero
will be no games on the East Hill dia-
mond for there are plans under way
by the Y. NJ. C. A. authorities and
other interested parties TO schedule as
many games at this popular play
ground as the teams can be gotten
out.

NOT THE FIRST

If Germany is boycotted after the war, she
will not be the first country that has been so
treated. Many years ago the British boycotted
Bolivia. / was in 1865 that the then President
of the South American republic ill-treated the
British minister by tying him on mule face
to tail, and parading him around the capital
For this offence official England blotted Bolivia
off the map, and for thirty-five years she re-
NAMED ostracized. From commercial point of
view Bolivia was almost ruined, and not until
many years later did she recover from her
punishment.

GERMAN DYES NOT NEEDED

AS move against Germany the British parlia-
ment has passed law forbidding the import Of
dyes for ten years after the war. At the be-
ginning of the war Germany controlled the dyes
of the world. But in fouru years the dye-making
industry has been successfully developed both
in America and England, so that never again
will the world have to depend upon Germany for
it's coal tar colors.

waste in teachers efforts caused by al
cohoism.' In regions, she says,
"where saloons have always been
abundant and conditions OF living
usually because Of alcoholism-are
bad, at least one-third of the aver
age teachers time is required to
merely hold in check and partially de-
velop the children of alcoholics. Most
Of the abnormal and subnormal chill
dren have alcoholism In their families,
and the sins of the father are visited
upon the children even unto the third

These children have one grave fault
In common. They cannot concentrate
the mind long on any one subject-not
long enough to follow the thought OF
the lesson. In some this takes the
form OF Irritation or rebellion, and In
others there is the stupor, the dead
ness, that def1es the most interesting
lesson and the most magnetic teacher.
"Of course this waste is loss to
the normal pupils. whose teaching
must lag while these weak ones are
given special help. If we could elimi-
nate wholly the effects Of alcoholism,
which would require more than one
generation, elementary education
might easily be accomplished In seven
or even six years instead Of eight
years, as at present required.
'Hfgh school and college teachers
would probably not agree with this
statement, for the simple reason that
the descendants Of alcoholics seldom

"This affects both passenger and
freight traffic and will be boon to
receivers and shippers Of freight
and passenger travel as well, in that
the system Of transfer at Hopkins
vile win be done away with. Through
service will be maintained to Prince
ton. KY.
"The plan formulated, which has
the sanction Of the regional director,

PARK FIELD AYIATORS
NOW FLY AT NIGHT


A change in the hours Of flying
az Park Field and auxiliary fields
was announced Friday by Maj. W. P.
JsInigaii, eonimandant. Beginning
May 81, the boys started flying at
$40 a. M, and fly until ii o'clock,
when they win eniov a siesta until
s o'clock. Aerial work will be re-
sumed at that hour and will continue
until 5 o'clock. The change was
made SO that cadets and instructors
can fly in the coolest parts of the
day, and also because the busiest
and windiest portion of the day is
around noon.
Flying at night is considered the
most hazardous of all flying with the
exception Of actual combat. Only
the brightest moonlight nights are
utilized for this, and so far only the
instructors are allowed, to ascend.
Big flares are set off on the ground
where the flyers arise. BY this light
Il is possible to distinguish the land
acape for rods around. However,
once in the air the flyer has to keep
an eye on the flares.
In flying at night the aviator must
have an extra keen sense Of equilib-
RUM. for he has no ground beneath
him To see whether he is flying side
wise or upside down. He must use
the tiny lights 1000 feet or more
below him on the ground for sense
Of equilibrium.
According to Maj. Jernigan, it is
not probable night flying will be ex-
Tended to include students yet, as
hly experienced instructors know
Rw to handle a machine at night.

HOW AMERICANS NOW
TREAT GERMAN PRISONERS

German soldiers who have been
captured and brought to this country
for internment love the fatherland,
but coming out Of the war they look
upon this country as a heaven or a
dreamland that they cannot fully
arouse themselves to. In the first
place they are fed beautifully. which
is something very new to many Of
them, and while prisoners they are
treated as human beings. There is
ne prodding bayonet behind them,
and they get breath of the free
dom Of the country, which is a novel
and a delightful experience to them.
Many Of them express themselves
as having no desire whatever to re-
turn home. Memphis News Scinitar.
