is spared that is fitting the last jour
Iney of man who has died for his
country. All bodies are shipped only
on passenger trains, and as the
special baggage cars in which the
shipments are made are loaded at the
piers they as well as the piers where
the bodies lie are under an armed
guard Of honor. General Bradley
who is in charge of the work. is very
proud of It.
Is Truly American.
''To walk along the pier in the
presence Of thousand or more of
these heroic dead, in caskets all
arranged in line and fag-covered
with an armed guard of honor keep
ing watch over them and not be
thrilled at the sight were impossible
for any true American" he says.
'The bodies of those now arriving
are no less graciously and sentiment
ally received and cared for than those
that came first. And they shall be
until the last Of those who have paid
the supreme sacrifice has come home
We have not forgotten, and we shall
not forget"
Above all, General Bradley is proud
Iof some of the touching letters Of
thanks and appreciation that are
brought back to him by the enlisted
men who accompany the soldier dead
home. from mothers and wives and
sweethearts.
And yeti think of what Colonel
Roosevelt said about Quentin: let
the young oak lie where it fell" And
I can see again the fecund hills OF
the land between the Argonne and
the Meuse, where we dug our little
foxholes and crept into cover and
crawled over the hilltops and waded
the silly little streams they call rivers
| in France And one by one men
dropped away, and we left them liv-
| ing where they fell. +.
Then, afterward, Uncle Sam came
along and gathered them all together
and put them to bed there on the
side of the hills around Romag ne-
sous NJ ontfaucon, where the sun
warns them in the spring, and the
cold wind from the north is broken
by the Barricourt crest. And / think
that if had been one of those to
stumble and pitch headlong in the
! face Of the German machine-gun fire
| from Gheppy or Chatel-Chehery, I
/ had rather they left me there.
Yet It is wonderful to see them
I over there in Hoboken, In their long

tie Rock baseball club TO secure the
permission of the league to use two
pitchers who had been given their
unconditional releases from the Pa
cific Coast league. under circumstan-
ces far from favorable to the play
ers.
II there were anv players in the
Southern league who were inclined to
tread the primrose path at that time
they took a tumble to themselves.
-
Prior to the attempted entrance
into the league of the two players
aforementioned, there were several
rumors in circulation. But a careful
investigation of the matter revealed
nohing discriminating.
There were several instances or
where ball players would muff flies
or strike out in the pinches, etc,
which will occur In the best regu-
lated baseball families and II was
discovered that the players were
guilty of tapping up too much wet
goods. which made them unfit for
baseball.
There was one player on the Mem
phis club during the season who was
accused by some fans of having been
crooked. But we know for TACT
that he was only booze addict, and
that as far as really throwing game
he never did such a thing.
