present is mighty slim. Until yester- day some American league boosters held hopes, but last night everybody has thrown up the sponge. Even the most rabid White Sox rooter admits it's all over but the shouting.
 What Managers Say.
 Chicago, Oct. 7.-"lt's all over but the shouting," said Manager Moran of the Reds last night "We1l win again today, no matter who Gleason pitches. My players feel that the worlds championship, already within their grasp, is theirs. The Reds have played championship ball all the way through and I am proud of being their manager.
 "Eller pitched one of the greatest games that ever won a worlds series yesterday. He couldn't be touched. that's all. His feat of striking out SIX in a row will go down in worlds series history as one of the greatest achievements on a ball field"
 Chicago, Oct. 7.-Manager Gleason of the SoX also gave credit to Eler, but declared that the Sox were not playing the brand of baseball that won them the American league pen nant.
 The team hasn't shown itself to be the pennant machine that won the American league flag" Gleason said " Everything has been against us. The players themselves were not right yes- terday. But that does not detract from Eller's great pitching. He beat us with great pitching and deserved the victory
 'The SOx will fight until the last man is out Although the odds are against us we are not quitters. have every hope that we'll win out yet. Stranger things have happened. expect to start Kerr Tuesday, and if he's right he'll win.'

BREEDER OF BOLsHEvISM

In the Senate during consideration of resolution proposing reduction of the amount of currency in circulation. Senator Myers, democrat Montana, said that high living costs were productive of Bolsheyism and anarchism."
 Senator Poindexter, republican, Washington said that the President had been given $100.000.o0o to feed dis tressed European peoples and added: 7 "But it would be impossible to get an appropriation of $1.ooo.0o0 for foods for Americans.'
 One of the reasons urged for the ap- propriation to supply food to Europe, Senator Poindexter said, was main- tenance of meat and food prices.
 While the Senate debate was in prog ress Representative Igo. democrat, Missouri, appealed informally to mem bers of the two house committees to recommend adoption of his resolution for an inquiry into the cost of living. but no formal decision was reached. . One resolution proposes that the House ways and means committee con duct hearings during the recess to de- termne whether prices have been in- creased so as to offset federal taxation. and the other directs the federal trade commission to determine the cause and necessity of increased prices for shoes, sugar, coffee, and clothing.

A "Reminiscences of Fremont

Lieut.-Col. F. w. Halford. in Leslie's.
 In 1856 I was "a junior pathfinder, ,' marching with cap and cape and torch free men, free speech and Fremont" The ''Pathfinder'' was an inspiration to the L,lad, and I carried ever in my memory the fire of those early days and the face and figure of the sold.er-hero who biazed
 the way to the victory that followed in lS60- In his later days General Fremont
 was not in good circumstances, and a grateful people. through action by Con- gress, provided a way for his appoint ment as major general on the retired list of the regular army, in which he had served with such distinction-saving to the nation the great Pacific empire leaving the army to become the first United States senator from California
 President Harrison gladly followed the action of Congress by nominating Gen eral Fremont on April 22. 1890. He was

Charlie Cha plin Shut Out
:. E. in August Film Fun.

M. l.. E Tn AuSuSt FllHl Y uh
 You know the bromide about imita- tion being sincerest flattery-well Charlie Chaplin can tell you that, while it may be agreeable in one way. it can be mighty inconvient at times.
 Take. for instance, the incident of the Los Angeles movie theatre which was showing Chaplin picture and which as a side attraction. was staging q Chaplin imitation contest. There were all sorts and varieties of pseudo-Char- lies out in front-four-foot Charities and six foot Charlies, all with canes, mustaches, derby hats and turned -ur shoes It seemed as if all the young sters in town had congregated by the theatre to out-Charlie Chaplin. There was huge crowd around the place shouting encouragement to the would be Charlies, who were all doing thelr best to win the prize offered for the best imitation, and then
 A slight inconspicuous young man elbowed his way through the throng and addressed the ticket taker deferen- tially:
 May I go inside to see my picture? I'm Carles Chaplin"
 The ticket taker gave the young man the once over And sniffed in sort of tired way.
 "Yes, I've no doubt you're Chaplin. he said ironically. You're the seventh fellow who's tried to pull that on me in the last hour, and if you'll look at the crowd out there, you'll know better than to tell me you're Chaplin-without a mustache."
 But really'-the young man com menced
 Really nothing!" the ticket man ex- ploded. Get out of here before I call cop! If Chaplin ever saw you, he'd laugh himself to death to think you had an idea you looked like him.
 The mild young man seemed to strug gle with a desire to burst into apop- lectic laughter, but he turned away obediently and purchased a ticket.
 "Didja see who went in just now?' an usherette asked the ticket man. That was Charlie Chaplain"

WELL BALANCED BILL
 AIT LOEW'S RuQII

A clever well-balanced bill is the of- fering at Loews BiJou for the last half of the week which met the approval Of the large audiences yesterday. The Dixie Boys trio of clever young entertainers. carried away first honors with a revue of southern melodies, pianologue comedy songs and some snappy dancing. They made hit with their presentation of an old-fashioned minstrel show.
 The comedy playlet, Just for Instance is somewhat complicated affair, but very ably presented by the three players. It deals with the eternal triangle, two women and a man and deals with the domestic affairs of two of them. The plot is very original and altogether the little act is very pleasing.
 Bud Walker, breezy young man with an original way of putting things over the footlights, made a hit with number of comedy songs and some clever i'm presentations, but his monologue dragged woefully.
 Herb Walker and Liela West opened the bill with a song sketch with dance

MICHIGAN
By Associated Prss

Lansing, Mich, July 31.-Attorney General Groesbeck today sent two of his assistants to Columbus, Ohio, to obtain information the Ohio authori- ties have gathered relative to the pro- posed investigation of food costs.
 An effort will be made to form an alliance between the legal department of the two states for this particular case, it was stated.
 Pending their return MT. Groesbeck said today that he had under considera- tion the advisability of calling grand juries to get at facts relative to in- creasing costs of foodstuffs.
 Mir. Groesbeck said the profiteers had decreed that the cost of living should not be decreased, and that Michigan would invoke it's laws to their fullest extent to relieve the situat ton.

HANG ON TO YOUR INSURANCE

Mr.. McAdoo, in a letter to the Sol
diers and Sailors of America, says:
"You owe it to yourself and to
YOUR family to hold on to Uncle Sans
insurance. 1t is the strongest, safest
and cheapest life insurance ever
written.
For YOUR protection Uncle Sam has
established the greatest life insur-
ance company in the world-a COM
pany as mighty, as generous, and as
democratic as the United States gov
ernment itself. Just as Uncle Sam
protected you and your loved ones
during the war, SO he stands ready to
continue this protection through the
days of readjustment and peace.
The privilege Of continuing your
Government insurance is a valuable
right given to you as part OF the
compensation for your heroic and tri-
umphant services. If you permit the
insurance to lapse, you lose that
right, and you will never be able to
regain it. But if you keep up your
present insurance-by the regular
payment of premiums-you will be
able to change it into a standard
Government policy without medical
examination. Meantime you can keep
up your present insurance at sub
stantially the same low rate. The
Government will write ordinary life
insurance, twenty-payment life, en-
dowment maturing at age 81, and
other usual forms of insurance. This
will be Government insurance-at
Government rates"
