BY way OF variety they sometimes

bad enough. but now they have added
another form Of sport TO their pro

They have taken TO hurllng hand

VICTOR ENlNrANUELs BIRTHDAY.

Italians everywhere will hoist the green, white and red flag of united and greater Italy today, in honor of the forty ninth birthday of their monarch, Vittorio Emanu~le III. His elevation to the throne in 1900 was under tragic circumstances, as his father, Umberto- l., was assassinated. Victor Emmanuel celebrates his birthday today with Italy greater than she has ever been in her history and with his victorious armies dictating peace terms to the Austrian foe. When the Italian king assumed the reins of government eighteen years ago he found a country politically dis organized and in the throes of finan- cial depression, with many of her people reduced to the verge of starva- ton. During his reign prosperity has been restored and the tide of emi- grafton, which formerly took millions of able bodied men and women fir )m the country, has been greatly abated.
 The Italian king is the most intel lectual of monarchs and is known as "the walking encyclopedia" The study of rare coins is his hobby, and his numismatic collection is among the finest in Europe. and rivals the stamp collection of King George. He has written a book on the history of numismatics which is accepted as an authority.
 In his youth the king was delicate and fears were entertained for his life, but the adoption of a Spartan regimen saved him for his country. He has been under fire at the front many times and has stood the rigor of life on the field of battle as well as any of his soldiers. His wife, Queen Helena, is a daughter of Mich o1as I. of Montenegro. They are said to be a most devoted couple. Their only son, Prince Umberto, is "now in his fifteenth year, and they also have three daughters.

WASHINGTON CELEBRATES 18th
 ANNIVERSARY AS STATE.

Washington today celebrates it's 18th anniversary as a state, the great northwestern commonwealth having been admitted to the Union on Nov. II, 1SS9 The first American set clement within the boundaries of the present state was made in 1911 by John Jacob Astor's Pacific Fur Co.,, at Astoria. Astor's company and the Northwest Go. organized in Mon treal in 1774, were bitter commercial rivals, but in 1913 the American com pany sold out to the Canadians for $80.0O0. In 1921 the Northwest was in turn absorbed by the Hudson's Bay Co.,, and the great British corporation exercised a shadowy sovereignty over the region until 1S45, when by the Oregon treaty the whole Puget Sound region and the lower valley of the Columbia passed to the United States. Washington was a part of Oregon un- til 1853, when it was organized as a separate Territory. Olympia, orig inally Smithfield, was founded in 1S46; Seattle, named after a famous Indian chief, in 1852; and Tacoma, then the site of a saw-mill and few cabins, was chosen as the terminus of ] the Northern Pacific in 1872.

and community Americanization, com mittees have already been formed under the auspices of the Councils Of Defense, it is planned to esta bIish many more. Some of them expect to employ a paid director who shall have executive charge of the campaign, and 8 committee which shall act in an ad- visory capacity In this committee will be representatives of every inn portant racial group in the coamun- ity, employers of foreign labor, or ganized labor, the public schools, the public library, and all agencies doing work among the foreign-born.
 The Councils of Defense are par ticularly interested in the emergency wartime features of Americanization But they are also looking to the fu- ture, to the remakihg of the nations which will come with peace. There Is huge task of education to be ac- complished, through the whole nation, native-born and foreign-born. 4 slogan has been chosen by the Anleri- canization section of the Council of National Defense and recommended to the state and smaller Councils Of Defense, which shows something of the spirit that is being put into the work. The slogan reads: ''All foS America! Native-born and Foreign born! Anything is Good that Brings Us Together"

KILKENNY MEN'S
 BALL TO BE BIG
 NOISE OF WINTER

New York, Nov. 1.-The entertain ment and ball of the Kilkenny Mems Association will be the feature event of the Winter season in Irish circles. That is, if Ed. O'Shea, the prominent Yorkville man, chairman of the Ar engagement Committee. has his say. Indications are that the big noise in the Imperial Lyceum, Fifty-ninth street and Third avenue, on Saturday evening, Nov. 30, will far outclass any held by the organization.
 The feature of the affair will be it's military aspect. Many of the members are now "Over There" and it is for these boys who are fighting for their country that the big enter tainment will be staged. The mem bers now in camp awaiting call to help down the Huns will come on to make the military aspect complete, and it is a foregone conclusion that the olive drab will be much in evid- ence.
 The Knights of Columbus also will share, inasmuch as a percentage of the receipts will be turned over for war purposes. At a meeting of the Arrangement Committee last night it was announced that the best talent obtainable for the entertainment has been secured. It was also stated that the best Irish dancers and jig and reel artists have been engaged to give the soldier boys an inning.
 Invitations will be sent to all the city officials to be present and take part in the patriotic services, which will be rendered in conjunction with the raising of the large Service Flag in honor of the members now doing their bit for Uncle Sam.

MARTINNIAS IS
 SUPPOSED TO BRING
 RENEWAL OF SUMMER

According to ancient tradition pre- valent in England, Scotland, France and North America, Martinmas, which falls today, is supposed to usher in brief period of warm and sunshiny weather, which Europeans call St. Martins summer, and which is designated Indian summer on this side of the Atlantic. This feeting revival of the halcyon season does not always come according to schedule, but the meteorological records of Great Britain, France and some parts of this continent prove that the weather is most often clear, and sometimes unseasonably torrid, during this period. In this case scientific observation partially supports popular tradition.
 The calm, balmy and hay period of late Autumn, known to Americans as Indian Summer, is particularly noticeable in the upper Mississippi valley, although occasionally extend- ing to Canada and eastward to the Atlantic. The haze Is supposed to be due to thin smoke or fine dust which floats close to the surface of the. earth in the still atmosphere.
 Martinmas, or St. Martins Day, falling on the eleventh of November, was for centuries a holiday in Eng land, Scotland and France. It com memorates a saint who was born in Hungary, the son of a Roman mili- tary tribune, about sixteen centuries ago. Hundreds of legends cluster about the name of St. Martin, Bishop of Tours, but the favorite relates u his division of his cloak with naked began
