Eddie Co,,ins.

many more years he will be playing
his old, steady, wonderful game around
the keystone sack, at bat and on the
paths.
Edward Trowbridge Collins was
born at Millerton, N. j., May 2, 1887,
and played his first baseball, aside
from that with other small urchins,
on the town common in 1904, with the
Columbia university team at New
York. He was college player In
1905 and 1905, and In 1906 he was
picked up by the Philadelphia Ameri-
can league club. In that first year he
used the name of Eddie Sullivan" be-
cause as a college player he could
not participate in organized baseball
and retain his amateur standing.
When Collins first went to Philadel-
phia he was tried out at short and
third base, and the ensuing year he
played shortstop. In 1908, with the
Athletics, he alternated at second base,
third base and shortstop In 102 games,
and hit for an average of .273, his low
est average since he entered the ranks
Of organized baseball
The White Sox captain has been In
six worlds series, has stolen more
bases than any other worlds series
player, and his work In those classics
probably outshone that Of any other
individual. Collins came to Chicago
in 1914 by transfer the Sox paying a
reported $4,000 for him.
The Sox infield leader Is resident
of Philadelphia suburb. He has two
sons, one four and the other ten years
of age. Eddie's latest hobby is radio.

OUR THANKSGIVING DAY.

The first record of thanksgiving ser
vice within the present limits of the
United States was that held by the Pop
ham colony who settled on the coast OF
Maine in August, 1907. From an old re-
cord is taken this account of the event:
SUNDAY being the nineth of August, in
the morninee, the most part of our hole
company of both our ships, landed on this
island, where the cross standet5, and
thear we heard a sermon delyvred unto
NJ by our preacher, giving God tnanKs
for our happy meetinge and safe aIyvaii
into this country; and so returned aboard
again"
According to some authorities thanks
giving service was held by the filerlms
a early as December, 1920, soon after the
landing of the Mayflower. This, however,
was merely a thanksgiving service.
Thanksgiving Day, such as we now ceie-
brate, was originated by Governor BRAD
ford, of Plymouth. In November, lou,
the Pilgrims landed on the lonesome coast
Of New England and passed the ensuing
winter with great suffering and privatlon.
When Spring time came they all got busy
and planted crop. It's growth was
watched far more carefully than ne"
baby. The very lives of the colonists de-
pended upon the success of that first Gro
There was tremendous rejoicing In the
Autumn when a bumper crop was mar
vested. Governor Bradford isued pro-
clamation of thanksgiving. In order 10
have ample provisions for the occasion ne
sent out four men in search of wild game.
They returned with fine haul, consisting
largely of turkeys, 1t is doubtless due 10
this incident that the turkey has always
been considered a necessary feature OF
every thanksgiving dinner This first
big THANKSGIVING festival lasted nearly
week. The principal guests comprised
large number of friendly Indians, Includ-
ing the famous chief Massasoit.

THE DETERMINING FACTOR.
lFrom Christian Register.l

Iron Cnrlstian heeisteI.I
A Statistical Study of populations re-
yeals the disquieting fact that in sections,
Is in the poorer quarters of large cities,
where tenements are crowded to suffoca-
ton and children swarm, there is also the
most ignorance, the most unemployment,
the highest death rate, the largest per-
centage of criminals, the worst form of
poverty, and the most obstinate cases of
mental arrangement. In other words, the
roe1t prolific breeders of the race are re-
cruited from the ranks of the ignorant,
idle, sickly, criminal, poverty stricken,
and mentally deficient.
These are facts clearly demonstrable to
any one who will take the time to visit
the Uttered streets and alleys, and reeking
tenements where the poor live, and gather
figures. The multitudes of boys and girls
are being educated by environ ment.
What better will they have in turn to give
their children7 Thus the submerged por-
ton goes on producing the diseased,
criminals, imbeciles, all requiring that So
ciety support them. How can we have q
clean, high-thinking, wholesome race
until we clear the stream at its source3 1t
looks as though the mighty schemes for q
better governed world that are on foot,
and are receiving absorbed attention from
saeacious diplomats, were nothing worth
20 long q the race is largely recruited
from men and women who know only
misery, grinding poverty, or crime, and
whose children cannot possibly know any
thing higher.
The final determining factor in the pro-
sress or retrogression of the race is that
Of parentaee.

President Harding bought from Sec
retary Mellon Of the Treasury De-
partment the new savings securities
of the Government which are issued
in denominations Of s25. 800. and
$1,000. maturity value, and are sold
for s2o.50, $S2 and $500, respectively.
In the picture President Harding is
shown buying a certificate of each de-
nomination. This is one of the many
proofs which the Treasury Depart
ment has had of the popularity Of
these securities.
Treasury Savings Certificates are
automatically registered on the rec
ords of the Treasury Department at
the time OF their issue, thus safe
guarding them from loss by either
burglary or fire. That this feature is
appreciated by hundreds Of investors
is shown by the fact that sales records
on file in the Boston Office of the Di-
rector of the Savings Division give a
total OF more than s5.000,000 invested
in these securities during the first
nine months OF this year.
The final chapter in the War Saw
ings Stamp campaign of 1913 will be
written on January 1, 1923 when these
stamps are due and payable at their
face value. The sale of these stamps
IN 1918 assisted in financing the
Government 10 the extent of about one
billion dollars and although, since that
time, necessity has caused large re-
