By n. E. BROWN.

Quite a bit has been said about
Kid Gleason, manager of the White
Sox. having pitching problem.
That's all bunk.
All Gleason has to do before the
game every day is to get Claude
Williams and Eddie Cicotte togeth-
er and say:
Which one of you birds wants
to pitch today? One of you has got
to pitch if we win this ball game"
Then Claude looks at Eddie and
Eddie at Claude
Then Gleason says:
That's mighty fine of you, Eddie
Cor Claude. to offer to pitch out of
your turn again. Go to it,"
The idea being that Williams and
Cicotte nave carried the bulk of
the burden on the mound for Glea-
son in the pennant fight to date
The fact that the White Sox are
leading the league and have the in
side track on the pennant speaks

and means to have educated the ma
tions who precipitated the holocaust
out of the false doctrines they held
before they could have gathered the
power to start such reign Of terror.
And now l am down to the question
am supposed to answer: What can
religion do for the professional and
business men and women Of Emmett"
and if have found the answer it
will apply not to Emmett alone, but
to thousands of other communities.
First | believe that the Protestant
churches have wasted much time and
effort in destructive competition; in
the expounding and defending of alb
struse dogmas and creeds. These may
be interesting to theologians, but not
to the average business man or woman
who is worried with the duty of max
ing a livelihood for himself and
family and the upbringing of that
family to be good citizens and christ
ians. Just how interesting would a
discussion of the fourth dimension be
to the most of US. Despite the Sher-
man Antitrust law, the theory of
destructive competition has been dis

KNOWS OUR B. B.
DAVIS
Letter from Soldier Who Is at Vlad-
livestock With Mr.. Davis.

Talking about condolences, here
! is one of interest to Emmett people:
During the.war, Ruth Peterson, young
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. A. P. Peter
son, knitted pair of sox for the
Red Cross and attached thereto card
with her name upon it. The sox fell
to young soldier named Herbert E,
Bowles, in the medical department OF
the Red Cross in far-off Siberia. He
voiced his thanks for the sox in a
letter to Miss Peterson, which opened
up a correspondence. The last letter
Just received from him, dated Vladi-
vostock, May 10, relates that he is
assisting our B. B. Davis in his de-
partment. But let the letter itself
tell the story. He writes:
II was tickled to death to get the
letter from you the other day and to
get a picture of you, too. Letters
don't often come my way here. I've
got something to tell you. | am in
the medical department now and the
last two days I've been working for
Mr.. Davis, who comes from Emmett
and says he knows you and your
whole family l just happened to ask
him the other day where he was from
and he said Emmett. So / asked
him if he knew Ruth Peterson and he
said: "Well, for goodness sake, she
lives right next door to us" / showed
him your picture and he was tickled
to death. It's a pretty small world
after all isn't it? "You asked me
about family by the name of Bowles.
wish you'd ask them where they're
from. All the Bowles' with their
name spelled Bowles are more or less
closely related, and descendants OF
three brothers who came over from
Scotland before the revdlution of
the colonies. | have an uncle and
aunt and some cousins in Twin Falls
by the name of Pickett.
Mr.. Bowles has travelled extensive
ly for young. man, only 18 years OF
age Born in Iowa, he went with
his parents to Japan. They were mis-
sionaries. In 1908 he was in Colorado
Springs, then Chicago, Philadelphia
and New Jersey. In l9O9 ne went
back to Japan, was back in this coun-
try in 1914, living at Prosser, Wash.
Afterwards he went to school at West
town, Pa. His parents are now at
Tokyo, Japan. Before joining the
Red Cross he was cable clerk for an
export and import firm in that city,
translating cables and kilograms
from codes. He joined the Red Cross

about the middle of June on Red
