MANY STATES FURNISHED
MATERIAL FOR WORLD SERIES

strong to the Red Legs. Each of these
states Is the home of stars. Michigan
is the home Of Eddie v. Cicotte,
knuckle and Shine BALI artist, and
leading lace" on the White Sox
pitching staff. Harry Liebold, alias
Little Memo" diminutive outfielder.
and Big Bill James, the feet 41-2
inches pitcher, also hail from Michi-
gan, this state also having the dis
tinction of furnishing the tallest and
shortest player to the American
League pennant winner, in Liebold,
and James, the former being 5 feet,
5 inches. Eddie Roush,, one-time a
member of the Chicago Club, and now
the smuggling outflelder of the Reds;
LewinsB. Duncan, another outfielder,
and William A. Rariden,, formerly a
catcher of the New York Giants, are
the Hoosiers on the Garry Hermann
payroll.
Two states have contributed two
members each. These are Texas and
Massachusetts, which go "fifty-fve,' .
by sending one member each to the
White Sox and the Reds. Richard
Kerr (diminutive Dick) game left
handed pitcher, is the Lone Star
state representative on Comiskey's
club while A. Roy Mitchell, also a
mound artist, is the Texas member
Of the Reds. Massachusetts, has pro.
duced two veterans Of the game.
Patrick Moran, who piloted the Gin
cinnati RAs to victory, Is the Ma
tional League representative, while
John "sbano' Collins, outfielder,
member of the White Sox for the past
ten years, represents the Juniors or
ganization.
Urban "Red" Faber, who was a
star for the White Sox in the world s
series against the New York Giants
in 1917, is the Iowa representative
in the premier event.
Three southern states will be rep
resented in the series-Georgia, Ken
lucky and South Carolina. The first
named state contributes one member
each to the Reds and the White Sox.
Ivy B. Wingo, first string catcher for
the Reds, makes him home in Geor-
gia, while Claude Williams, leading
southpaw of the American League,
represents that state on Comiskey's
cicb. General Joe Jackson, hard
hitting outfielder of the White Sox,
halls from South Carolina, although
more recently he is laying claim to
Georgia. Harvey Mcclellan, the fast
little utility inflelder, is from Ken
lucky, the home of thoroughbreds.
Vermont has sent Raj. L. Fisher,
pitcher, to the Reds, and Missouri Is
represented onsthe same club by Nick
Allen, catcher, and one time a men,
, Der of the White Sox.
New York state is the home of three
OF the participants In the big conflict
but it is very unlikely that r. H.
Wilkinson. pitcher OF the White Sox,
will get chance to take an active
part in the series, as he is Just n
pouth, and has been with the club but
a short time. James J. Ring, another
New York representative in the Sc
| ries, is one of the leading twirlers Of
the Reds and Charles H. See an out
fielder, is from Long Island.
The little island of Cuba, where
baseball is becoming the national
game and the place from which sew
eral players have gone into the maj
or leagues in this country, will have
its representative, in the person Of
Adolpho Luque, a pitcher, whose
home is in Havana. Luque is a mem.
Der of the Reds.

Attorney General Rice of Rhode Is

RED CROSS SEAL
DAY THIS FRIDAY
People and Merchants Urged to put
Little Sticsiers on All of Their
Mail and Parcels That
Day.

Red Cross seals are going to be put
on packages, letters, in fact every.
thing that goes out from Keokuk
stores Friday in observance of Red
Cross seal day. Merchants yesterday
promised the committee of which Miss
Younker is chairman to remember to
use the stickers. The committee Is
urging every Office and everyone who
mails anything or sends anything out
Friday to use the stickers.
The following open letter is sent out
from the district chairman's ONCE
here, and is in regard to the tsbercu-
losis activities for this district:
This year large number Of chill
dren in Lee county died and many
more were crippled for life by taking
poison carelessly thrown about the
house by their parents or members of
their family.
IF that were literally true what
would this community be doing about
it? 1t is literally true, only we do not
say they died of poison. We say they
died Of tuberculosis, or were crippled
for life by tuberculosis. Most all
tuberculosis, if not all of it begins in
early childhood.
we and ours may escape infection.
Why not apply the same common
sense that we would do with poison;
insist that people do not leave it about
where children can get it. We paint
gasoline cans red, we put skull and
cross bones on poison bottles, we put
danger signs on bitches, and forbid
the use of foul food.
yet we allow sick people to throw
the poison of tuberculosis on the floors
of homes, public buildings, and street
cars. Is it sensible? Is it just? Is
it right? We all say no-and then do
it. You can help to stop this crime
of tuberculosis by buying Red Cross
Christmas seals.
IF this county buys ten seals per
capita, seventy per cent of the money
you give will be spent, in this COM
by our own people, to fight the
great captain of the hosts Of DEATH
Yellow fever has been conquered, ma
laria is practically gone. small pox is
and tuberculosis can be de-
feated if you will wake up and do SSast
what you would do, if your good
neighbor or your own family spread
in your yard.
BUY seals for letters, for cards, for
New Years greetings, for lodge no
tees, for social invitations, but above
all, buy seals that the agencies which
are in dead earnest, may have the
money to protect your child, your wife
or husband or yourself. The sale of
seals has been extended to January
