Before lie left for Chicago, and the
American League meeting. the newly
appointed manager declared that the
the team for him. II memory serves
correctly, similar agreements and
promises have been made before.
When Ruth was sold II was an
nounced that most Of his enormous
selling price would be used to get
new stars for the Red Sox. The we'll
known world knows that 1t wasn't
that the team went along with
mighty little bolstering up. and made
money because baseball was enjoying
its greatest year.
NEED NEW SYSTEM.
4 new system will be necessary
next season. but whether or not it Is
employed Is one OF those mysteries.
There's a chance that Ruth will have
another swatting parade, and thereby
make money for every club in the
league. And modern magnates GER
tainly hate to pass up chances OF that
sort.
There is a general impression that
the Red Sox will trail along in the
same old groove in II. and conse-
quently there's mighty little enthusi-
assn about managers or anything else
The fans. as we observe affairs, have
arrived at dangerous show US
stage.
The flock OF friends who doomed
Harry Hooper for the management
did not hesitate to say that he wasn't
offered the job because he would de-
mand a very high salary, and with 1t
guarantee that real strength be
added to the lineup.
A new manager, taken over from
a smaller league, would not have the
prestige to make demands. II would
be merely up to him to make good
with whatever materials were pro-
vided
IT'S DUFFY's JOB.
Which is what II. Duffey must do.
Perhaps he will get the necessary as
sistance. IL SO. he can't help beine
successful. He knows the game from
oil angles. But If he's left to strus-
gle along, without help. he stacks up
against proposition that's just about
Impossible.
Duffy has as many friends, prob
ably. as any individual in baseball
He's been connected with the pastime
since the days of the old Boston
clubs. when he was the greatest hit
ter extant. He has managed, secuted
and coached since, in the big league
and out.
He hasn't any enemies, being as
finc a chap personally as fits about
the national pastime. In the old days.
his appointment would have been
greeted with loud applause and great
rejoicing. But the baseball popuiace
hercnbouts has soured on things IN
general ,Everybody's waiting TO sec
what happens.
We imagine that Dun. when he TOOK
on the lob, realized just what he
was going against. He's hrainy
enough not to attach himself where
sure disaster is ahead, and Sox tans,
knowing this, are hoping that better
times are rolling near through Inc
fog OF the baseball future.

Sunday is to- be an interesting day at Olivet church. In the morning serivce the sermon will be by Mrs Louise B. Esch of Mobridge, South Dakota She is a. home missionary in a state fifteen times as large as Con necticut with but half as many peo- pie. She is an excellent speaker whose story deals with first hand knowledge of conditions.
 During the evening service Dr. Brown will illustrate his sermon by one of HofInann's paintings, a copy of it being put into the hands of each one present at the service. The master painters have found in many instances their finest and most lasting inspirations in the life of Jesus and they make vivid to the eye the Cos pei lessons:
 The new plan adopted by Olivet into operation. On Tuesday next the Thinlble club of the Mary Beardsley society, which was successfully be gn last week, will meet in the Pri- will do sewing for the church and for some of the benevolent causes of ;.he city.

|nent men of the state have been NAM

The history of Louisiana's war

who gave their lives for the preser-
walton of freedom and democracy. We
feel sure we can count on you to as
sist in the work by serving in an ad-
visory capacity on this committee.
Please wire US your acceptance at our
expense.
Raymond Parker.
The Executive Committee members
from the Third Congressional Dist
riot besides Mr.. Broussard are DR..
r. o. Young and Mr.. c. C. Krumb-
harr.
The memorial to be erected is not
to commemorate the memory of the

their lives in the cause of democracy,
and will be SO stated on the corner
stone of the building which is to be
erected on the campus of the Univer-
sity which is state property.

ria Parish.
