THERE are seven wonders Of

.THERE are seven wonders Of
the world and Pat Moran.
For Cincinnati consumption
this may be changed to read there
are Pat Moran and seven wonders
Of the world. Patrick is the man
ager of the Cincinnati baseball club,
which won a pennant some time be-
tween the neolithic and the hoop
skirt periods, but not since.
In 1915 Pat Moran blossomed out
as manager Of the Philadelphia Ma
tionals. Peerless Patrick ran
franchise. a small park and Grover
Cleveland Alexander, assisted by
Eppa Jeptha Rixey and Erskine
Mayer, into the first pennant ever
won by the National League wing of
somnambulists. Fans far and wide
and short and tall-wondered how
Pat Moran did it. He almost did it
again in 1916, losing to the Brook
lyn Nationals by the length Of an or
dnary Roman nose.
In 1917 and 1918 Pat subsided,
or, rather, the Phils subsided on him,
and his contract with that club was
terminated. He came to the Giants
as battery coach, but last spring
Garry Hermann asked Professor
McGraw if he might borrow Pat to
manage the Reds. Ordinarily tn.
would be fate fearful to contem
plate. Managers in Cincinnati wei,
treated as moving targets or glas'
balls in a shooting gallery. The eX
Cincinnati baseball managers living
in the United States-but not il
Cincinnati-wouldc capsize the Levi
athan. Out of every so many hun
dred persons killed in railway acci-
dents in the United States it is est-
mated one is an ex-manager Of the
Cincinnati Reds.
Into this cemetery Of hopes walked
Peerless Pat, bat on his shoulder
and brogue on his tongue. In

Consider Pat Moran of Cincinnati

at three months they breathed and
were alive, and in four months they
knocked the stuffing out Of the New
York Giants-well equipped with
stuifing to be knocked out.
People across the country began
to take notice. An old man in Cali
fornia looked at the National League
team standing and dropped dead /;
another went blind. The Reds were
at the top of the heap.
And driving them onward vas
and is-Peerless Pat Moran, who be-
gan playing minor league ball back
in 1897 at Lyons, y. Y. and has
succeeded in crashing baseball prece-
dent since. Stallings was the Mir
acle Man" Of the diamond, but there
has been no expression yet that can
convey the preternatural powers Of
Baseball manager who can steer
the Cincinnati Reds into a pennant.
Peerless Pat will probably 60 down

purpose underlying our war taxa
ton; namely, to impose the greatest
burden upon those best able to
bear it. do not wish to dispute for
a moment that taxation must be laid
in accordance with the dictates of
social justice. To advocate a scheme
Of taxation which would spare
wealth would be both wrong and
fatuous. Yet | cannot escape the
conclusion that the very extreme of
the burden laid upon business and
income has partially defeated the
purpose which the trainers Of our
taxation legislation apparently had
in view, and at the same time has
given rise to certain unforeseen and
troublous developments-as invari-
ably happens in the case Of extreme
measures, especially where econom-
les are involved. Now that the emer-
gcncy of the war is over, | believe
the entire matter should be sub

work among retailer, wholesaler
and producer. This, he goes on TO
say, is as essential to the lowering
Of living costs as cooperation be-
tween employers and employees.
The high cost of living, the De
fence Council finds. is owing to the
deficient production Of the essen
tials Of life, and it was found that
this primarily was due TO the lack
Of focused information and to the
want Of adequate machinery or CO.

groups engaged on what part soever
Of the productive and distributive
process.

At that time Mr.. Stone had been

was a source Of never-ending Won

What was the worst run that you
can recall" Mr.. Stone was once
asked by a reporter.
Nearly all runs in an engine cab
are unpleasant" replied the engi-
necr. "Of course. the most trying
times are in the severe heat Of mid
summer and the awful cold Of mid
winter. Especially in the Northwest
is this true. The winters in that
section are very severe, and the
labors of the engineer and fireman
in the cab during weather that is 40
and 80 degrees below zero, snow fall
ing so thick that it looks like wool,
and all nerves at a tension in the
struggle to do their duty, cause
them TO work under conditions al
most unknown TO other laboring
men"

Capt. Martin Owens

"NAR1Y" owENs is back.
" Otherwise he is known as
Captain Martin 5. Owens. In June,
1917. he was chosen to drive the
ambulance which the Honor Legion
Of the Police Department presented
to the French government. Com
missioner Woods selected Owens
from among 700 candidates and he
never had 70 regret il. Owens won
the Croix de Guerre with two palms
and went through the thick of the
fighting.
When General Per. hing arrived
in France Owens was inducted into
the A. Z. T. and continued TO serve
with the ya.or that mad marked his
career previously.
Owens won his first citation by
recovering the body of Charles Do
Ian, an ambulance driver, whose
machine had been hit by German
shell. With Steve Dresser and
Harry Mathis, Owens brought back
Dolan's body, with a German ma
chine gun popping at them as they
worked. This was the first Of sew
cral noteworthy exploits which dis
tingu.shed Cwcns's career abroad.
In France Owens met Up with tho

NAL economic life
Mr.. Kahn, in a memorandum pre-
pared for a public official at Wash
ington, does not deal with the gen.
eral subject Of high prices as much
as with some of the less patent and
direct contributory factors.

the appointment by the government
Of a non-political body of experts
to study the effects of the vari-
Gus kinds Of taxation which have
been in force during and since the
termination of the war, and to
make recommendation to Congress
