Gunboat Smith a few years ago came up in a furry of right

JOHN 3. FOSTER
 LOSES JOB AS
 SEC. OF GIANTS

New York, Dec. 15-John B. Eos ter, for some years secretary and business manager of the New York Giants, and one of the most popular and efficient men ever connected with baseball in any capacity, has re- signed, and Joseph D. O'Brien, of Milwaukee, has been chosen to take his place.
 It was rumored in baseball circles last night that Fosters resignation was due to the fact that he has a chance of becoming chairman of the National Commission, to succeed Gar 'ry Hermann.
 This rumor was strengthened by the fact that while half dozen big league clubs would be glad to secure Fosters services in their business of fices, the former secretary of the Giants would give no intimation as to his plans for the future. It is said that he has the support of a number of powerful magnates in his candidacy for Herrmann's job.
 The announcement of his retire rnent as secretary of the Giants was made yesterday from the business of fees of the National Exhibition Com pany, the organization under which the ball club is operated. The change is to take place immediately.
 Oddly enough, Foster succeeded O'Brien. who now returns to the job. O'Brien, in turn, has succeeded Bill Gray after the worlds series row of 1911. John B. Brush was then alive, and he personally selected O'Brien, who had been president of the American Association, ana a mem Der of the National Board of Arbitra- ton.
 O'Brien did not hold the secretary ship long, and then Brush picked Foster, who was sporting editor of the New York Telegram, and a widely known baseball authority. It was a happy selection, and for years John filled the job in highly satisfactory manner

Aren Fiber.

It seems probable, says the Board of Trade Journal, that considerable trade may develop in the Netherlands East Indies in the preparation and export of aren fiber, which is ob- tained from the fibrous mass found on the leaf sheaths of the aren palm (Arenga saccharifera LabilD after the fall of the old leaf stem. The material can be cut from the stem in strips, and Is used by the natives for thatch- ing, ropes and small, stiff brooms, and also as a binding material in native house construction and canoes. There is also a European demand for yaren fiber, arising from its great resistance to water, which makes the fiber mark edly suitable for covering submarine cables. Aren fiber does not appear to be utilizable in the paper industry.

Conversation Fest Shows Great Ad- vantages of Little Hardship That Increases Mans Appreciation
 of His Privileges.

Don't hurry away, Bud; sit down and talk; that's the popular recreation nowadays" said Leonard V. Whenne, the village philosopher, to the inter- ested listener, Glenn NJ. Farley writes in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. "We have progressed so fast and so far in the last two or three decades, and ar- rived at such a complicated and finely organized system of civilization, that we are practically tied up in a web of our own weaving; the war has thrown us into confusion, so the world has called square mans meeting, and we are trying to talk ourselves out of it. Everybody has a remedy for re- pairing the system, and we are all standing around giving our views, and the resultant chorus is something to make angels weep" ..
 "Three-a-day, place to sleep and a little amusement is all I want of it." said the Interested Listener. "What are they arguing about? My idea would be for the whole gang to stop talking and go to work"
 'Did you read about that shipwreck- ed sailor they took off a Pacific island the other day?" said Whenne. "He was washed ashore, with a barrel of port wine, photograph and a box of soda crackers, and, by gum, he fought the rescuing party. They had to hand cuff him and carry him aboard ship. He was In favor of the simple life, but they brought him back home and dump ed him into a longshoremen's strike. Man wants but little here below, but he makes an awful fuss about getting It."
 T know" said the Listener. "Our lGndlady gave us ten thousand enraged words at the breakfast table because the phone was out of order, the butch CTS boy was late with the meat and the electric lights were short cir cuited."
 ''The more people get" said Whenne, 'the more they want. and the harder they are to please. Things have come 30 easy they have lost their appetite. A little hardship Is . good thing once in . while, if for nothing more than to increase mans appreciation of his privileges. Everything Is relative; sun- shine and fresh air, without any trim mings at Ill, are heaven enough to the guy who gets up from a sick bed, and even ham sandwich is a blessed priv ilege to hungry man. Here is Amer ica, full of food and comfort to the neck, standing around and wondering what Is the matter, and listening to the orators of discontent. In hard times all people pray for is job, and in good times they get purse proud and want an endowment. Probably the AL mighty sends us into tough going to make us appreciate our good fortune when it. comes"
 'Well, get my little lesson between pay days" said the Listener. "When I get the little envelope I'm so full of joy and optimism that spill over."
 "That is what the world has yet to learn," said Whenne. "It's got to learn to take care of its job, and quit spilling over."

An unforeseen by-product of home demonstration work, especially in cities, has been its influence as an aid in the Americanization of people of foreign birth or extraction. In many instances 1t was the home-demonStra- ton agent in her food-conservation work who gave the foreign woman the first understanding of the war and her duty as an American citizen.

ports Of massacres of Jews in Poland
and Ukrainia and other parts Of Rus
sia was made today by Secretary Of
State Robert Lansing in a telegram
to Col. Harry Cutler, chairman Of the
Jewish Welfare Board. Col. Cutler
presided at the meeting held in this
city on Monday to protest against the
massacres Of jews in Ukrainia and
has been in conference with the State
Department on several occasions re-
garding pogroms in Russia. Secretary
Lansing announced that an American
Consul General, Mr.. Evans Young, is
shortly to leave Odessa to investigate
general conditions. Mr.. Lansing also
stated that the State Department will
assist any relief organization desiring
to aid people in these regions. Secre-

ingly, the matter was brought before
a committee Of ten deputies, eight Of
whom voted in favor Of a trial, while
two declined to vote at all. The next
