Movement Starts for Big Clean-Up In Great Game

Chicago, October 1.-Representatives of four major league clubs tonight started movement designed to clean up base ball forever by taking control of the game out of the hands of the men finan- cially interested and playing it under q civilian tribunal of men "of unqualified public standing" abolishing the national commission
 A letter was sent to every major league club and dozens of others interested asking their approval of the plan, which was characterized as means of giving professional baseball to the American people-where it belongs-a1d taking and players.
 The letter was signed by WilliaI1 Veeck, president of the Chicago National League club; Charles A. Comiskey, presi- dent of the Chicago American Leag de club; Barney Dreyfus, president of the Pittsburg club, and John McGraw, vice president and general manager of the New York National League club.
 It proposes that the national commits sion be abolished, because in it's present form it cannot be impartial" and that in its place there should be a tribunal whose members would receive higher salaries than anyone now connected with baseball. General Pershing Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, former President William Howard Taft, Senator Hiram Johnson, Judge K. M. Landis and Will liam Gibbs McAdoo are some of the men proposed for the tribunal, but the letter adds that none has yet been approached on the subject.
 The letter declares that such plan must be worked out immediately if base ball is to continue as the national game. and points out the gambling and betting evils revealed in the past two years.
 The plan was worked out by A. D. Lasker of the Chicago National League club and has received full approval of President John Heylder of the National League, the letter says.

Solar System Compared.

Perhaps our most graphic picture
of the solar system is given by Her
schel. Imagine a circular field 21a
miles in diameter; place a library
globe two feet in diameter in the
very center; SO feet away put mus
tard seed. The globe will represent
the sun and the mustard seed Mercury.
At a distance of 142 feet place
pea, and another at 215 feet. These
will represent Venus and the earth,
both as to size and distance. A rath-
er large pinhead at distance of 327
feet will speak for Mars, and fair
sized tangerine quarter of a mile
distant will stand for Jupiter. A
small lemon at two-fifths of mile
will play the role of Saturn, large
cherry three-fourths of a mile dis
tant will answer for Uranus and fair
sized plum at the very edge of the
field will proclaim Neptune.
Eighty moons would be required
to make one earth. A player there
could throw ball six times as far as
it can be thrown on American dia-

CHURCH TO AID
''LUMBERJACKS"
Interchurch World Movement
Man Makes Study of
Conditions.
Companies Do More Than Church, He
Discovers.

The Interchurch World Movement
has remembered the lumber jack" in
northern Minnesota. A survey of con-
ditions in lumber camps, with refer
ence to the physical and spiritual well
fare of the men, has just been COM
pleted by the Rev O. l.. Robinson,
under the direction of Rev A. u.
Mann, rural survey supervisor for
Minnesota
Mr. Robinson estimates there is still
timber enough in the twenty million
acres of Minnesota forest area to keep
lumber crews busy for % years, at the
present rate of cut.s
'@The lumber companies are doing
more for the men in their employ than
are the churches says Mr.. Robinson.
Some religious work is being car
ried on in the larger camps, notably by
the American Sunday School Union
and some of the nearby pastors. At
Bemidji a reading room and social
center is formed by one company. Four
Y. M. c. A. equipped for religious
and recreational work
THE fact that there are 1873 Ium-
Der camps employing 21,494 men in
the district and that it is estimated
that more than $4,000 men are engaged
in the lumber industrial forest area
indicates something of the task of the
church, if it is to minister properly
to this class of workers which is prob
ably in greater need of religious in
formation than any other in the state"

root crops are always more tender If
grown rapidly.
Cabbage and cauliflower can be set
out now. They are often set much
earlier. Tomatoes and plants that are
apt to be frosted should not be put out
till the middle of May.
Plant good supply of ANIMALS for

Sweet peas, pasturtiums, phlox, zin-

Ventilate hotbeds and cold frames
carefully on warm days. Open the

A little too much sun will do much
