SPORTING NOTES

For the first time since he broke up his championship team, Cornelius J. McGillicuddy has not announced to the sporting world what he is going to do with the Athletics in the pennant race this year. Last year in spite of a few modest brags he finished hope lessly in the rear. Can he put up fight this year?
 A catcher who works in at least 100 games each season is worth a liberal salary. Last years major league re- cords show that these men passed the century mark behind the bat: National League, Killifer and Wingo each 120 games, and Rariden, 100. American League, Schalk and Severeld, each 139 games; O'Neil, 127, and Ainsmith, 119. Those who caught between 90 and 100 games were Stanage of Detroit, Nuna- maker of the Yankees, Miller of Brooklyn, Snyder of the Cardinals and Tragresser of the Braves Hannah, the Yankees new receiver, led the country with 1855.

accountant who ever lived could
measure by human calculations.
Though the tears can never be
wiped away, the broken hearts
never be mended, the millions Of
murdered brought back to life,
! the diShonored womanhood never
be restored, the bill must be sum-
med up in the most graphic Ian
guage known to mun,nd. II
must be written on TIE pages OF
human history with a pen fed by
the blood OF millions OF broken,
bleeding hearts. There it will
stand forever as an unpaid debt
from which Germany can never
through eternity be cleansed.
AS well might Judas have
sought to blot out the reality of
the betrayal of his Lord and of
the agony of the Cross as for Ger
many to hope ever to wipe out
the record of its crimes. In let
tiers of fire, burned into the soul
Of every man and woman living
now, or in the centuries to come,
they will forever stand.
Germany will for ten thousand
years be regarded as more typi-
cal of Observation-Disclosures than
Judas and Nero.
Though Germany can never
wipe out this bill, there is a bill
for material things which should
represent every dollar spent by
America and our Allies in saving
civilization from being destroyed.
There is bill for every ship
that has been murdered, for
every pound of foodstutfs and
raw materials of which Germany
has robted others.
There is a bill for the disrup-
ton and disorganization of every
business on earth.
There is a bill for every fruit
tree cut down, for every town
looted and burned, for every car
and locomotive stolen. These
things must be summed up and
Germany be made to pay to the
uttermost farthlng.
To require anything less of
Germany would be to condone its

There is also a bill whice can

The Bill of Civilization Against
Germany!
What a staggering bill it will be-!

What a staggering illitwill be!
1t will be a bill for four years,
up to the present time how
much longer no one yet knows
of the most fearful crimes which
the world has ever known.
1t will be a bill for the millions
who have died in defense of civ
ilization and for the millions who
have been blinded and manned
and permanently invalided.
1t will be a bill for all agonies
which hundreds of millions have
had to endure.
1t will be a bill for the tears
which have flowed from the eyes
of millions of mothers and wives,
sisters and sweethearts because
their loved ones have had to en-
dure all of the hardships which
the vilest ingenuity of He'll could
instigate as they fight on the
side of Heaven in the battle
against He'll.
1t will be a bill for such sor-
rows as earth has never known
by dishonored womanhood which
in shame and deathless woe cries
out to Heaven against the cri-
minals.
1t will be a bill for mangled
children and for tens of thous-
ands of helpless babies done to
death by Germany's crimes.
1t will be a bill not merely for
the tens of billions of money, not
merely for the ships that have
been murdered, for the towns
and countries that have been
ravaged, for the cathedrals and
churches that have been destroy
ed; these are only part Of the
material things which must be
charged against Germany in the
bill of civilization against bar
barism.
It will be a bill which no human
words can ever portray, and no
auditor can ever state in figures.
These are some of the items in
this bill against Germany. the

to re-stock the vacancy on his floor
or shelves, while the credit buyer"
who allows his account to run for
sixty to ninety days or longer has
doubled the merchants interest on
his invested capital to keep his floor
we'll stocked, because his last in
vestment is worth per cent on the
dollar, and his investment in the
piece of goods he placed in the
credit buyers home is costing him
i8 per cent. And all the explanation
the "cash buyer" hears in response
to his complaint is: The merchant
is forced to sell at the same price for
cash owing to the losses experienced
in carrying accounts. This is not JUS
tlce to prOmptness, neither does it
satisfy the man who pays cash, for it
must be remembered that the man
who buys on time pays nothing for
the use of his goods for sixty or nine
ty days he has already had them in
his home
We do not find this true in other
business transactions. Suppose Mr..
Brown plans to borrow from the bank
on April 1, $500 for one year at 8
per cent for which he expects to give
his note dated April 1. But on Feb.
l, sixty days earlier than he had
planned, he has the bank deliver him
$500.
No person would expect that bank
to allow Mr.. Brown the use of that
money for sixty days before the date
of his note or for sixty days after his
note became due without charging
him interest for fourteen months.
Would it not be natural, then, and
fair, that the merchant who is carry
ing Mr.. Browns account on his books
at a cost of per cent should justly
be entitled to per cent interest from
Mr.. Brown for the accommodation
and for the use of the goods sixty or
ninety days before settlement is made
After long and careful study OF
the methods and systems that are be-
ing used with success in other towns
[ find that by working out the follow
ing plan as being the most nearly adj
|
of our business. The plan is two
fold, since it will prove a great ben
eft to all your customers as we'll as
to merchants.
| We would call your attention to a
| system, with all Of it's advantages
in which the Discount for Cash
Plan," which has been in effect and
proved successful, OF business meth
cd in handling cash sales and credit
accounts.
AS most Of their bills are discount
ed 2 per cent for cash in ten days, or
80 days net, they will be able there
fore to offer this cash saving to their
customers who pay cash or are prompt
in settling their accounts.
