PRESIDENTS Jokes
REAL 'R|B-T|CKLERS'

LONDON, Dec. 29.-During the mo-
mentous conferences with Premier
Lloyd George and Foreign Minister
BaIfour yesterday, President Wilson,
It transpires. found time to crack" q
few jokes and stories. The premier
several times was seen to be convulsed
with laughter in the otherwise staid
and solemn offices at 10 Downing
street over the Presidents inimitable
negro dialect and Irish brogue "rib
ticklers."
Most of the bewhiskered jokes ready
for the scrap heap in America are
comparatively new here, and even the
Presidents old-timer concerning the
.estern Indian who enlisted to make
the world safe for the Democratic
party" got a hearty laugh.
The Presidents newest one comes
straight from the trenches in France.
Here 1t is:
An American general noticed that
no sort of Difference was paid to his
rank, so he asked a sentry for the rea-
SON.
The cool reply was:
"Oh, we do not take any special no.
tice because We know you fellows"
During the unveiling of the portrait
OF George Washington presented to
the British government by Lord and
Lady Albemarle. the President recalled
the story OF another portrait of Wash
ington at Mt Vernon. The artist had
been unable to catch the expression
and the fire OF animation desired until
by accident a pair of horses was
brought to Washington for him to
purchase. When the price was named
IL was so astounding that the Father
of His Country blazed up with fury
and Indignation, so that the painter,
who was present, caught the very ex-
preston OF fire he desired.

MAJOR LEAGUES
MAY JOIN HANDS
Economy May Cause Ma
tional and American to
Merge for Season.

The magnates OF the Two major
leagues are considering a eombina-
ton Of the two leagues for the next
season. Schedules would be played
just the same as ever, except that the
eastern teams would play in the east
and the western teams would play in
their own territory.
The increased cost Of travelling is
being felt by the big leagues. The
draft, the ship yards. the munition
factories and steel plants TO say
nothing Of the enlistmeuts, have been
making inroads Gen. CroWder's
work or fight" order. and its posi-
bic effect on the national game next
year also is to be considered
The new plan would mean that for
the one year at least there would no
longer be an American and a National
league. The two leagues would prob
ably De com bined and rearranEed as
follows; Senator'S. Athletics. Phillies.
Dodgers, Yankees. Giants. Braves and
Red SON. in the Eastern league, while
the Browns. Cardinals. White SoN.
Cubs. Tigers. Indians. Reds and Pr
rates would comprise the Western
league.
A worlds series could be played
just the same the east and west
clashing. Magnates argue that neither
OF the leagues would be topheavy and
that as much interest would be
aroused as under the present system.
It is planned TO keep the two leagues
intact and as soon as conditions are
again normal. restore the old playing
schedule.
