purpose of making better citizens physically, incidentally, spiritually. To this end I am convinced that such a department in the Government would be of real value
 Congress should make provision for the Department at once. 4 dozen or more years ago in a conversation l had With the late Jim" Sullivan he said that the United States needed a Department of Public Welfare: that he should deyelope the youth of the na- ton under Government supervision. Many times have i brought Sullivan's remarks before the reading public, many added the voice of others equal ly as well interested, and l am glad that the wish is to be granted.
 Yet at the ime that the President asks that attention be paid towards the development of the youth of the United States our Congress insists on sporting goods. Nothing could defeat the Presidents wishes than this tax. It isn't as much of a tax on sporting goods as 1t is on the play of children. The taX puts sporting goods out of the reach of the future greats. It will he only a question of time if the tax is continued that sucls teams as The Little Potatoes" The Rosebud Ran gers etc, will pass out of existance. There were 2, 900 uniformed teams under the age of IS playing ball in the United States two years ago. We venture to say that to say that this number has decreased by 1000 during the past season, because the youth of our land cannot collect funds to pur- chase the necessary equipment.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE.
CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, May 11.-Increased anxiety over crop damage reports had a large share in bringing about decided advance today in the price of wheat. The market closed strong, 1-2 to 3-4 net higher with May IA to IA i-4 and July 1.16 1-2 to 1.16 3-4. Corn gained 5-8 to 7-S, oats 1 1-4 to 1 1-2, and provisions 27 cents to G2 cents
 Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas Missouri and Indiana all sent unfavorable news regarding winter wheat, and there was active general buying throughout the day except during brief interval after word was received that rains had fallen in western Kansas. The consequent up- ward swing of the market was much fa- cilitated by statements of Secretary Wal lace of the United States department of agriculture favoring a higher scale of prices than before the war and indicating belief that business conditions would be improved with the settlement of the Ger man separations matter
 Corn and oats were helped upward by the strength of wheat. Another bullish influence was the knowledge that the bulk of the 1.2S0.000 bushels of corn in public elevators here has been sold for shipment
 German acceptance of the allies terms appeared to enliven demand for pro- visions, and especially so for lard.

WANTS TO SEE ACADEMY
 GAMES PATRONIZED

To the Sports Editor:
 Whats the matter with Norwich? |? Hasn't the old town any sports? Why should New London on the 7th inst have turned out five or six hundred sound-lunged rooters, packing the bleacheIs and decorating the stone wall of Morgan field. to boost the Bulkeley infants tottering to defeat before the Norwich Academy veterans; while on tne 4th, in sepulchral silence relieved once in while by a few voices of cracked bell power, bakers dozen or so of Norwich city folk witnessed the Ston- ington galaxy succumb to the Academy nine
 Something is wrong. Can't anybody shout in Norwich? New London, small though it be in comparison with Nor wich in population. seems to have all the vociferous rooters in this immediate sec ton of Connecticut.
 Now, the Bulkeley nine. and other similar ones. in their fatuous attempts to rival the Academy nine, need all the vocal encSura cement New London or other home cantres-town or rustic-can give them. The Academy boys need no such incentive; but this is no reason why the eternal hills and stately halls near the Academy field and running track should not echo shouts of Norwich applause whenever a good play is made by member of the home or of the wis iting team
 Something else is wrong. If, New London can back her high school why can't Norwich back hers? A team can't he run on nothing. If there are any genuine sports in Norwich-real base ball fans who are not asthmatic. touch ed fn-the wind or under treatment for some throat trouble. let them buy tick cts for the rest of the season, and voice ur tune sun and turn out for the game with the Westerly victims on the 17th Play ball.

New York, May 11.-Benny Kauff, suspended outnelder of the New York Giants today denied the charge of auto mobile theft on which he is being tried. The indictment charges Kauff and two accomplices with theft of an autome- bile owned by Thomas Brennan of Bronxville.
 The etolen automobile was sold to lg- natz Engel, a stock broker and later recovered by the police. Engel testified that Kauff returned the purchase money 10 him when it was learned that the car had been stolen.
 Kauff admitted having learned that the automobile sold to Engel was not the car which he had ordered Frank Hone and an employe to purchase.
 He denied the stories of James Shields and James Whalen that he had stolen the Brennan automobile in company with them and denied knowing that the car he sold to Engel was a stolen auto mobile

MANY BEAUTIFUL ORCHIDS
 N snTTHFRN NEM ENI


 The orchids of Southern New England give. but a faint suggestion of what the orchids are like in the tropics: but even here in the north there are many beau tiful varieties. Most showy Of all are the lady.s slippers, the Moccasin flower of our young pine woods being the most freQuen- variety and the favorite wild flower Of thousands Of children and mo- torists who have never seen it's rare sis ter. the yellow and the showy lady's slippers. nor its cousins, the delicate Cal o2ogon and paEon of ouS Gamper mead 5Ws, nor the showy orchids of our sec ond growth woodlands. The only thing that has protected many of these rare flowers is the very fact of their rarity,
 and in the case of some or the charm ing greenish fringed orchids their decep- tive coloring which renders them almost
 invisible among the green things of the
 woods or roadsides If these flowers were hunted down. as Is the trailing ar
 butus4 they would in many cases have
 long since disappeared; even as is, in some places they have done so-
 It is not mere sentimentalisn to la
 ment the vandalism which destroys so
 many of our wild flowers. If they were
 not worth while in the lives of human being they would be relatively safe They have snOWI themselves on the whole, able to weather many unintentional forms of destruction, such as the ravages of numbering. burning agriculture and graz
 ing; the picking by the men and women and children who love them appear to
 he the determining factor in their exterm- nation; so that the very scale on which some of them are picked shows the ex- tent to which they need protection. If they can only be protected from the very people who think they are worth while they may soon be safe.
 Next to the thouehtless picking by ] motorists, always with the life-giving leaves and often with roots and all the
 greatest damage to our orchids \is done
