CINCINNATI, June 16.-Having
been all around the league and more
than held their own in the first quar-
ter of the National league journey,
Pat Moran's Cincinnati Reds now
seem a first division certainty this
season, with a chance that they may
slip down home in front.
Although most Of those who have
been picking the Reds to pieces to
see what they should do are leary of
Moran's pitching staff, those who
have followed the team closely do
not share this view.
It's quite true that Cinc!nnati's
,hurling corps does not compare with
that OF Brooklyn. New York and
Chicago also have better staffs-on-
paper than Cincinnati. But. In actual
performance, the Red hurlers have

to pitch a no-hit game this season
and in addition to holding st. Louis
hitless he also shut out Brooklyns
hard hitting team in thirteen in
ming contest.
Moran also has the veteran Roy
Mitchell and young Jimmy Ring as
right handlers and has four likely
'southpaws in Slim Sallee, Rube
Bressles, Walter Ruether and Eddie
Corner. At this writing he has not
got his staff working the way he
hopes to do later on. He realizes his
pitchers must be worked properly for
him to achieve winning results, but
one of the best things Pat has in his
managerial bag of tricks is handling
his hurlers properly.
Outside of pitching there seems no
other department of play, save pos
sibly base running, where the Reds
have to take second place to any
team in the league. They not only
are clean fielders, but are able to
cover as much ground as the next
team. And when 1t comes to batting.
1t will be real surprise If Cincin-
nati's team average at the end of the
season is not the highest or second
highest In the league.
Moran has three almost sure 300
hitters among those who play every
day is Ed Roush, Heinie Groh and
Jake Daubert. Earl Neale is making
a noise like big average this season
and so are Ivy Wingo and Bill Rari-

Saturday After

Motorists report that some fields
of wheat south and west of Burling-
ton we're damaged by the storm which
was chiefly a very hard downpour Of
rain Saturday afternoon.
In some cases, the wheat is only
partly down and probably will come
up enough to rpen properly. But
some large fields are too fiat to ever
recover and will be nearly total
loss
The wind was erratc and only
severe enough in spots to blow down
the wheat which Is now high and
nearly ready for the harvester.

On the League Of Nations.


I'VE recognized at the eleventh
hour what we should have known all
along. that every country must pre-
serve itself by an ample army supple
meuted by a sufficient navy, said Mr..
Kendall.
Regarding the league of nations, he
said:
Until ii comes in its full effulgence
We shall act wisely if we speak softly
and carry big stick"
In another minute he was being ap-
plauded again when he said:
After winning the world war We
Numbered into colossal mistake in
common with all the allies; there
should never have been an armistice;
the terms should have been those or
Grant at Donelson, unconditional sur
render"
The Deserts of the Hun.
What we should have done, Mr. Ken
dali said, were four things:
Disarm the Hun army publicly in
Germany, so the German people would
realize they were whipped.
Collect an indemnity commensurate
with the outrages OF the Hun warfare.
Put the kaiser in bastile and keep
him there.
Then sail away for the good old U.
S a. and stay here until We are
needed again to save the world or
ourselves.
The peroration was an eloquent
panygeric ON the flag and what 1t
stands for in the world.
A Master of Oratory.
In his youth N E. Kendall was
styled by his admirers as the silver
tongued orator OF Iowa, a name which
he has always lived up 10 and abb
horred. There Is an ease and grace
about his speech that is seldom heard
among even the best masters of Eng
lish diction. Like that prototype OF
his who was earlier named the orator
of the silver tongue, he can carry his
audience with him in his matchless
flow Of words.
The address was, appropriately
enough, a very eloquent speech, OF
beautiful rhetoric, artictic construc-
ton, musical phrases and perfect
delivery.
1t was string Of pearls Of purest
English, all Joined, out each distinct
gem.
1t had a certain rythm that sug-
gested the oratory Of Ingersoll TO some
of his auditors; the full, rotund tone
flowed forth with sort Of subtle
music of its own: his ALTERATION
added to the abundant amount OF
heauty in his speech and was even
Better than that of John Temple
Graves; all in all ii was valuable
and interesting study of the art of the
orator Of the highest type.
Music Measured Up to II All.
The music by the Keokuk Concert
band was up TO the high standard that
is usually heard from that organiza
ton. Citizens of keokuk have come
to recognize that such a statement is
IL itself a high compliment. In their
rendition of yerdis Quartet from
they outdid even their own
usual high order of musical interpreta-
ton
The committee of the Elks lodge in
charge OF arranging the entire exer-
cises was composed of J. Albert Hen
neman, David A. Hassett and G. L.
Norman.
It was unfortunate that the very hot
weather Kept away many persons who
would have greatly enjoyed the exer-
ciSes of Sunday afternoon.
Flag day is one of two annual memo
rial days of the order of Elks, the
other being in memory of their dead
brethren, and this year they gave it
entirely adequate expression in the
epry{caa tbpr held
