N.OGN. Team
Take ''Bear" Hides
LEAGUE STANDING

The crowd of men, women and
children who "coughed up" two DlLs
aniece to see the doubleheader at the
civ Athletic Park Sunday afternoon
received their moneys worth ana
then some when the N. o. q. N. boys
hammered Dixon all over the lot and
defeated the Baers to the tune Of 81,
and thereby gave the hardwood boys
their first defeat since the opening
Of the league.
Outplaying the "Bears" at every
stage of the game the Railroaders hit
Dixon harder than that old hurler has
ever been pounded before, and when
Poole can knock him for two bag
ger, what couldn't the rest Of them
do? :.
The railroad boys have been climb
ing steadily toward the top the past
several games and have come from
the cellar to second place in three
games. Sundays win, however, was
the greatest stunt of all, being the
first defeat tailed against the Baers
in the ten games played by them and
was as clean-cut win as has been
witnessed in the park this season.
The game from the staff appeared
to swing to the N. o. G. N, when
the first three "Bears" up in the
first inning were retired on seven
pitched balls, and then the N. O. G.
n. filled the bases in their half OF
the first before Dixon could fan the
two remaining batters. Things shift
ed around in the second and the hard
wood boys scored two runs on errors;
but when Poole slammed out a two
Dagger. bringing in Gatzman for the
first N. o. G. N. tally, Dixon started
blowing up and by the time the ninth
inning arrived had allow five men to
cross the pan, lille his own team
mates failed to / ass third.
Since the departure of Jolly the
Baers have experienced great diff
Guilty in securing man to replace
him and during the progress of Sun
days game were forced to change
catchers three times. Jordan, late
importation from Mobile, was burned
out in the fifth; Valley, who played
second during Blacks absence, broke
down in the eighth, and Forbes, who
has warmed the bench so long, show
ed himself to be about the best of
the lot, but he could not hold
Smoky" Even if the hardwood
boys could have had a better catch
ing staff, the result would have, no
doubt, been the same, as the Rail
readers were after a Bear hide Sun
day and it would have taken quite
a bunch of Baers to deter them.

er was between the Great Southern

a PINE TREE


No tree in the temperate zone has
contributed to civilization, the hap
pness and welfare of man, like the
pine, and no other is likely to con-
tinue longer to fill an important
place in meeting human needs. It
furnishes the logs and lumber for
the homes of the rich and the poor;
in the remote rural districts and in
the cities alike. 1t is a great source
IF fuel wood. Certain species pro
duce naval stores turpentine, tar,
rosin and essential oils. It's fiber is
among the best woods for paper
pulp.
The pine will grow on our poorest
soils. It will inhabit all the waste
places when all the land suitable for
agriculture has been put to produc-
ing food crops. The pine is frugal
and hardy and will stand the ex-

The occasional dry spells or wet

FURLOUGH AT ATLANTIC CITY
Famous Resort Post Arranges to Ac-
commodate Former Service Men
on Their Vacations.

The Atlantic City post of the Ameri-
can Legion is hooking up the A. e. f..
leave area idea to the possibilities of
Americas summer resort. It is invit-
ing Legionnaires from any part of the
United States to spend furlough at
Atlantic City, and it is establishing for
them a tent camp at which the ex-
pense item of quarters is reduced to a
minimum. SO, even though our we'll
known former skipper, Uncle Sam,
isn't available to issue transportation
and communication of rations and quar-
ters, any Legionnaire may now spend
a vacation at Atlantic City without
going financially flat in the process.
Bill Fisher, formerly top sergeant of
Company c, Twentythird engineers,
is the father Of the Atlantic City leave
area plan. He put the scheme up to
the Atlantic City post and the post
voted to carry it out. A committee
was authorized to 60 ahead with the
scheme.
The conception Of the camp which
the committee had in mind when it
started work was a tent town which
should be operated on the simplest
plan feasible 1t should provide for a
nominal sum living quarters under
canvas, thus saving the Legionnaires
the expensive hotel bills and at the
same time assuring them of place to
stay in a city in which it is sometimes
difficult to obtain hotel accommOda-
tons at any price. Living in the tent
town, the ex-service men should be
able to take advantage Of the bathing,
the boating, the dancing on the piers,
the shows in the theaters and the
many other diversions which the re-
sort offers.
The committee has named the tent
town Camp D'Olier in honor of the Lee
gion's national commander. It has
worked out all the details Of the camp.
The city councilmen, led by the mayor,
granted the post the right to use
plot of ground owned by the city and
the city engineer laid out the camp
streets and planned the sanitary facili-
ties.

TRIBUTE TO Ex-SERvICE MEN
National Commander D'OIier, In Let
ter for Memorial Service, Compli-
ments Men Who Served

Listen, buddies, to what Franklin
D'Olier, your national commander.
said about you in a recent letter. A
Legion post at Westville, n. j., asked
Rev. Howard E. Thompson of Wood
bury, n. j., to conduct a Memorial
service for them, and the minister
wrote the national commander for a
message which he could read publicly
on that occasion.
"In q very few years." Mr.. D'Olier
wrote, in part, ''the ex-service men of
this country will be the most promi-
nent in business, in the professions and
in politics, not merely because they
are aX-service men, but because, in
order to enter the service, they were
picked men, physically, mentally aid
morally, and being thus selected and
having the advantage of great expert
ence in the army, navy and marine

INCREASE FOR DISABLED MEN
barrow Bill EnIarges Amount by $40
Month for Veterans While TAX
ing Training.

Another important victory In the
American Legion's long fight for bene-
fetal legislation in behalf of sick and
disabled ex-service men is revealed in
a telegram announcing passage OF the
bill, recently received at Legion ma
tional headquarters from Thomas w.
Miller, chairman Of the organization s
national legislative committee In
Washington.
The senate in night session, &C
cOrding to the message, passed the
measure as a rider to the deficiency
appropriation bill, and as it previously
had been passed by the house, it now
awaits only the signature of the presi-
dent to become q law.
The Darrow bill increases, by $50 a
month, the amount Of money paid to
disabled veterans Of the world war
while taking training under the direc-
ton Of the federal board Of vocational
education.
This IS the second time the Legion
has obtained an increase for the
manned heroes, having pushed through
congress, last December, the Sweet
bill, which raised the amount Of com.
pensatiOn for them from $50 to $50
q month.
''The passage Of the barrow bill"
said Lemuel Bolles, national adjutant
of the Legion, 'was largely due to the
work done by LegiOnnaires who visited
Washington in its interest. General
published reports at that time indf-
Gated that the Legion representatives
confined their activities solely to the
pending fourfold optional compensa-
ton bill. Results show that the needs
of the disabled men always have stood
first on the LegiOn's program and the
organization is going right on working
for these unfOrtunateS, irrespective of
what congress may or may not see tit
TO do with the problems of ex-service
men as a whole.
'"The passage of the barrow bill will
give great impetus to the LegiOn's CO.
operative plan to assist the federal
board in getting every eligible disabled
man into training at once, as many
had refrained from taking training be-
cause Of the inadequate compensation
heretofore allowed"
