NEW ORLEANS IS
 SECOND IN RAGE
 FOR LEAGUE FLAG
S0Uthern Association Season E ! Closes; Termed Great sE Success

New Orleans, Sept. 18.-With Lit tle Rock the pennant winner and Nov Orleans in second place, the Southern association today conclud- ed what baseball authorities here claim was the most successful sea- son in it's history from the stand point of fans, owners and players.
 Although Little Rock previously clinched the pennant it was not un- til today that the race for second place was decided. New Orleans took two gomes from Mobile while At laY1ta won one from Birmingham giv- ing the Pelicans second place by three points while the Crackers went to tkled position. Birmingham finish edsfourth. Memphis, Mobile, Nash vile and Chattanooga finished in the order named.
 Program Success.
 According to those in close tuoch with Southern association affairs the 154 game program of this season was from every point of view sue ceAs. In the way of attendance new retrods were established for the le&gue.
 From playing standpoint it is pointed out that the association has probably developed more players el- igib1e for regular berths in the ma < jor leagues in 1921 than during any other season.. The large list ship ped to the majors also was new record, twenty-six having been sold, recniled or turned back under a gentleman's agreement.
 The pennant race was keen through out. Until only recently the win- nef was in doubt Little Rock, Birm- ! in2i1Am and New Orleans loomed lafte as prospective winners at differ 2 ent times during the midseason.

POSTAL COMMUNICATIONS.

The papers are saying today that for many years there has not been such a heavy mail as this Christ mas.
 In Great Britain and Ireland the "postman's knock as he pursues his roun just two knocks of the khocker on each door, dare not be used by any other official nor by a tradesman.
 Each year seems to improve a little on its predecessor in postal faciH- ties. The ten cent Special Delivery for instance, carried us long way forward in comfort. The afr-plane promises to be the top notch in the venture of sweeping our thoughts, like Puck's, around the earth, and ''in twenty minutes"
 As a benefactor in Postal Com munications, the name of Lieutenant Waghorn comes before us today. On Jan. 8, 1888, this intrepid English gentleman realized one of his noble projects of improving postal com munications.
 Waghorn was a man of extraor- dinary energy, resolution and clear, quick thinking. He died when he was but fifty years of age, and before he had fully reaped the rewards that were due to his great services for the State and the Community.
 It was the days when the Austra- Han Colonies began to rise into inn portance. It was the anxious days when quick route for the Indian mail was of all things desirable. clever stationer had invented a paper called ''The Indian Mail,'' stationery of a glazed surface, of tough texture but light in weight to save postage It is still used in England for over seas service. The Indian mail is SC i, important not only for army service not alone for commercial use, bu how many beloved scion of an Eng fish family is living and doing busi I ness in India And how many be loved children have, necessitiously, o1 account of climate and education been sent home to England. Thes must communicate constantly witt l the absent father and mother afar. The old days of four months pass | age round Cape Horn had become in l tolerable as to mail service. Som | quicker way had to be found thal sending letters and packages by tn

RESIGNATION OF KING FROM
 WOOD LEAGUE
Conn. National Committee man Quits Connection
 With Campaign

New York, Jan. 8-The resignation of John T. King of Bridgeport, Re- publican national committeeman for Connecticut from his connection with the presidential campaign of Major General Leonard Wood, was an- nounced tonight by the Leonard Wood League in this city. The an- nouncement gave no explanation of MT. Kings withdrawal but Frederick Moore, director of publicity for ths League stated that he believed MT. Kings retirement was temporarily due to overwork. MT. King was stated to be on his way home from Chicago where he conferred with General Wood, says the Hartford Courant.
 While the above word from New York created considerable interest here last night, it was principally on account of the public "announce. ment," because it has been known in Connecticut for some time past, as recorded recently in The Courant, that King had fallen into disfavor with leaders in the movement to ss- cure the presidential nomination fof Major General Wood. It was un- derstood, although not definitely stated, that objection to King by George W. Perkins, prominent New York financier, had considerable td do with his recent displacement by Colonel W. c. Proctor of Cincinnati millionaire soap manufacturer, as manager of the permanent Wood or. ganization.
 Other information that came ints Connecticut was to the effect that Kings alienation from the Republi- can organization in this state had some bearing on the matter, as it was believed that the chances of interest. i ing the Connecticut delegation to the national convention in Woods candi- ] dacy would be diminished by any ac. tivity of King in his behalf.
 ! National Committeeman King ha. been estranged from the Republican organization of the state he is sup posed to represent since January, 1917 when he was blocked in an attemp to seize control of the Legislature His erstwhile 'tcontrol'' of F'airfiek county has gradually slipped ava. from him and it was during a. meet ing of the Fairfield County Republi can Organization last summer that h, ddscerned well defined movement O | the organization he had once led t, curtail his power as president, witt | the result that he launched into a bit ter attack on Republican leaders O 1 the state.

It was not feasible. There were only camels to count upon to cross the "120 miles of desert" And there were hostile tribes to count upon. No, that would not do.
 Lieutenant Waghorn then took up the plan of passage by Egypt and Cormons. At that date, 1S36, the Suez Canal had not been begun.
 Mehemet Ali Che who massacred the Mamluks) was reigning in Egypt, and had an untidy list of the wars on his hand around the Eastern Medi- terranean. But Waghorn knew noth- ing of fear of monarchs when he had a projeCS for Humanity. His plan for quicker postal communication with India, by the Red Sea was at last successful.
 Men and women are plastic to a great purpose.
 Such was Waghorn's magnificent energy, perseverance and push that in one of his early journeys when he was laden with important dispatches for India, coming one winters day to Suez, and being disappointed of the steamer to carry him to Bombay, he embarked in an open boat to sail along the six hundred miles of the

We had little difficulty in getting along, for at that time it was possible with the aid of a very valuable friend in the German Per mits Office at Ostend to obtain per mits for any persons we wished to get through, so long as it was not matter of passing them into terri tory occupied by the Allied troops. All I could do for them, was to get them the permits to move their lines, and leave it to their native wit to get them through.
 I heard afterwards that they suc- ceeded in reaching Dixmude, and man. aged from there to get into Belgian lines, from which they were passed to the coast with their information for the British commander. It was because of the accurate information furnished by these two brave men that the British Admiralty were able to assert with such confidence what had been the effect of the last raid on Ostend.

THRIFT WEEK
 PROCLAMATION
 BY GOVERNOR

Hartford, Jan. S-'It is 8 lamenta- ble fact that the period of high wages and large profits which the country is now enjoying seems to be accompan- jed by unprecedented extravaganza and tavishness of expenditure. Un- mindful of the biblical example of providing during the seven fat years for the coming of the seven lean years, too many of our people seem bent upon wasting their present sub stance. Thrift is fundamental in the development of individual and na- tional character. Along with 1t goes temperance, self denial, foresight, morality and fidelity to the home. Especially should our wage-earners remember that present conditions cannot continue indefinitely and the proverbial rainy day is sure to come.
 ''It is gratifying to learn that the United States government, the Amer tcan Bankers Association, the United States League of Building and Loan Associations, the National Federation of Construction Industries, the Ma tional Associa ton of Real Estate Boards, the National Association of Life Underwriters Association, the American Life Convention, the Retail Credit Mems National Association, the National Credit Mems Association, the Retailers Commercial Union, the Association of Life Agency Officers, and the General Federation of Women's Clubs, are cooperating with the Young Mems Christian Associa- ton in focusing attention in an in tensive manner for one week upon this important subject.
 Therefore, I, Marcus Holcomb, Governor of Connecticut, approve of the so-caIed National Thrift Week, beginning on January IT, 1920, and seriously commend to the considera- ton of all of our people that during
 said period they take account of stock in their personal affairs, to the end that the present menacing tendencies may be arrested and more rational at titude toward expenditures be main l tained for the future"

 But the chauffeur taught me one thing; while driving me sixty miles an hour he taught me the real mean ing of dramatic suspense.
 So I learned about playwrighting from the laundress, the chambermaid the butler and the chauffeur.
 But learned most from the cook.
 Sometimes. when the cook wasn't making scenes, she made sponge cake.
 I like sponke-cake, and when I like a thing I want to know how it's made.
 So the cook told me.
 'tFor the ordinary sponge-cake, T she said, "you take six eggs and sep arate them.'
 Are they separated forever?'' ] asked.
 Not at all," she said. '"rhey come together in the cake.'
 Enough cried. ''You have giver me an idea. I shall take six people separate them, and then bring then together in a play"
 There's flour and flavor to be added" she warned me. And sugar don't forget the sugar."
 ''No, indeed!" I said, "pu use plenty of sugar" spongecake from the cook, followed 1t carefully and wrote "Wedding BellS.''

SPONGE CAKE SUGGESTED PLOT
 TO FIELD FOR WEDDING BELLS

Salisbury Field, author of Wed ding Bells,' the brilliant comedy which has broken all records for the Se1wyns in the Harris Theatre since its New York premier on November 18th, began his work as a writer in a newspaper office in his native state of California, where 1t soon became evident that he was a humortst of no mean ability.
 His copy was so annotated with comic sketches that he was speed fly transferred from the typewriter to the drawing board, where he dis played such originality in creating comic characters that he was offered the opportunity to come to New York as a member of ene Hearst or ganization. Under the pen name of "Childe Harold" Mir. Field was one of the first of American artists to realize the possibilities of the modern style of comic art and many of the lu- dicrous characters he thus created will live long in the memory of news- paper readers,
 It was during his association with the New York American that MT. Fields sense of humor began to reach out for other channels through which to express itself, resulting in his col Liberation with Margaret Mayo in writing Irwin Beds," a rib-tickling farce which enjoyed stupendous pop ularity for many seasons.
 Wedding Bells" Is, however, the first play fo which MT. Field is the sole author, but its success in New York is sufficient to compensate for the long wait which the public has had for g. high comedy threaded with such subtle wit and satire. Asked shortly after its metropolitan opening how he wrote Wedding Bells" Mr. Field smiled and made no reply. A few days later, however, he handed his interrogator the following description:
