pigeon. He might not hit any three thousand in this mans cir cult. but he's fixture at short, and he's going to please the fans and management this summer.
 Neun Looks Like Find
 Johnny (Kangaroo) Neun over on the first corner looks like real find. He has the fans all popped up over his stellar work around the first turn Tn the track. He looks like he's on springs by the way he bounds round after grounders, low and high throws and is one of the sweetest field CTS seen here in years on a minor league ball club. And, best of all he's strong with the fans. Neun stepped over near the bleachers after a high foul Mon don, and some wag in the sum baked section yelled: Look out. don't hurt our first -baseman. He's the first real fielding first-saeker we've had here in 70 years"

 The Louisville Colonels played

Harry Bloom, Charles Reinhart and Pascal Guigliano are the newspaper men travelling with the Colonels. They also had some dope on Duke Reil- iy. the outfieider who comes to Atlanta in exchange for Red Wingo. Their verdict is that Reilly will hit about 67s In this league. The Colonels hopped out Of Birmingham Monday night for Nashville where they play a couple of exhibition games and then head straight for Louisville, where they open their season April 12.

at the plate for the retirement of the side.
 And, still the Barons weren't satis- fled, while the Colonels appeared helpless before Whitehilps offerings. In the third the locals added an- other to their collection. Clarke was hit by 3 pitched ball to start the third. It was the second man he had hit with q pitched ball in three innings of work. Harper hit safe ly through the pitchers box and Clarke went to second, where he was caught mapping moment later by a quick throw from Estell. Taylor sln- gled sharply and Harper moved over to third. Krehmyer hit to Schopner at third and Joe played the ball slowly. Harper scoring and the throw to second falling to get Taylor. Bur kett hit to Betzel and the Colonels second-sacker tagged Krehmeyer and threw to first for a quick double play.
 The final run Of the afternoon came in the fourth frame, when Claude Robertson pounded out a double to start things, went over to third on wild pitch. and scored on an infield out.
 At the expiration of the fourth Manager McCarty decided Estell had had enough, so he sent Koob to the rubber and the left-hander held the Barons for the rest of the way. They got only one safe blow and nothing that looked like Q tally after that.
 From all appearances Whitehill looked like he was ready to go the route in the four innings he pitched Doc Newton had 8 slight tendency to wildness but was steaming his smoke ball through the alley and allowed no hits and no runs. Railroad Nich- ols worked couple of innings and gave up three hits. He looked good in the pinch. closing out the game without score after he had allowed the first two Colonels to face him in the ninth a hit each.

 Calls Off Battle

The following telegram was read at the rlnsside last night, which is eXplanatory:
 "Young stribIinE stale. Can't possibly fight on tenth. Letter follows. (signed)
 "PA sTRIBLING.p
 So Young StriblinE doesn't want to fight Red Herring at the B. A. c. next Monday night; Roy Cohen. chairman of boxing committee at the B. A. C. announced last night:
 ssThis is the second time strIb- ling hss run out of n bout at the B. A. c. We have wired him that if he doesn't fill his engagement here next week, we never will biII bIm nt the B. A. C. again. We ex- pcct an answer tomorrow some time."
 Meanwhile, if stribling doesn't appear here, it was stated that either Larry Avera or Patsy Me- Mahon of Indianapolis would meet Herring at the E. A. c. next Mon day night There will be a fight here, with Herring as the head liner, it was stated.
 Young Leonard and bunch of friends, in a statement at The Age Herald office last night, claimed that the Crescent City lad should at least have had a draw with Herring. Leonard states that he wants & return fight with Her ring, with the latter making 13S pounds at ringside.
 'qf I can't fight Herring, want to meet some good hoy. Avera. Budd, or someone else, to prove fo Birmingham fans that can fight"
 Local railbirds are probably willing to admit that he can fight, for he made a very favorable im- precision by his game scrap last night, and prove that he can fight with the top notchers.

 Carlson, who started on tho mound for the Alliance nine, pitched we'll for three innings, but after that he was ineffective at all times. Davies and Naramore were both rushed in but neither were able to stem the ter- rife hitting stride of the Simpson batters.

BAD TIME TO HUNT
A GOVERNMENT JOB
Civil Service Commission Shows Gov
ernment Employees On
Decrease.
Capital News Service

(Capltal News SefNlce.)
Washington, Nov. 6.-The number
of civil service employees on the gov
emment rolls Exclusive of army
navy, marine corps and legislative
employees) is now 559,663, the small
lest number since the United States
entered the war. At the time of the
armistice, November II, 1918, the
number was 917,760. The number OF
separations in the last four years has
been 35s,097.
The civil service employees in
Washington number 6s,71S. Separa-
tions in Washington, the chief center
for federal employees, are proceeding
at the rate of 400 month.
At the beginning of the war there
were 10000 employees in Washing
ton. Because OF war activities the
number jumped to 117,7eo. The re-
duction has been slow, and the figure
never will be so low as it was in 1916
because of the new activities of the
government as a result Of the war
The chief additions have been in the
treasury department and in the veter'
ans bureau. There will be further
reductions in the forces Of the wal
department, the navy department, the
United States shipping board, the
railroad administration, and the Alien
property custodian's office. It is
thought that 10000 clerks will be the
level finally to be reached in Wash
ington and 475,000 for the nation.

What kind of fertilizer is cheapest ?
This question is in the minds of many
farmers now as a result of the in
creased prices of clover seeds. Don't
decide to leave off planting clover
in cotton middles, corn middles, stub
BILE land, OF elsewhere just because
the price of seeds is higher than last
wear. The farmer can buy fertility
for the 1923 crop far cheaper now
in legume seeds than next year in fer
tilizer sacks. Clover planted now and
turned under next spring will furnish
plant food much cheaper than the

same amount of fertility purchased
as fertilizers. The higher prices OF
clover seeds can be offset to some ex-
tent by ordering in big lots. Here
is an opportunity for the farmers OF
a neighborhood to get together and
order seeds comparatively. Call on
the county agent and get his assist
ance. Get price list and order the
seed right away.-The Progressive
Farmer.

That Man Hope.

The Spartanburg Herald asserts
that, now that they have elected him
State Superintendent Of Education
the people are asking: "Who is
Hope?" Then The Herald adds:
"It is up to Mr.. Hope, Of course, to
answer that question within the next
two years by his record in office.
He assumes the duties at time when
South Carolina is committed without
reservations to advancing the cause
Of education. He comes at time
when public sentiment is back Of the
job and in his administration OF the
office to which he has been elected
he has the opportunity to make a
great contribution to the welfare OF
the state and its people.
"Mr. Hope has the floor and he can
answer for himself the question,
"Who is Hope?"
From what it has learned of James
H. Hope, The Piedmont believes that
he will answer the query satisfac-
torily. In the first place, he is man
of pleasing personality, affable, al
ways courteous and kindly in his at
titude toward all people. In the Sec
ond place, he has had long, practical
experience as a teacher in country,
city and mill schools and as princi-
pal and county superintendent of ed
ucation. From leading citizens OF
Union county, where Mr.. Hope most
recently was engaged in school work,
The Piedmont hears nothing save
what is in his favor. The Union peo-
pie, who endorsed him with an ex-
ceedingly handsome vote, say that he
is both popular and efficient; that pu-
pills, teachers and patrons like and re-
spect him; that he did much to up
build the cshools, with special refer
ence to those in the country. He has
experience, ability, energy and good
character. The Piedmo4t expects his
administration of the states educa-
tional system to be efficient and pro-
gressive. He was chosen by an
amazing majority which is generally
attributed, whether correctly or not,
to the school people who were sup
porting him and quietly working tor
him. He will administer the most i'm
portant office in the state govern
ment at a critical and momentous Pc
Rod, and our belief is that he will
discharge his duties wisely and well
and in the interest of the public wei
fare.-Greenville Piedmont.

Inasmuch as re have done it unto
the lest of these, We have done it un-
to me-"
There is no man or woman who
reads these lines who would pass by
a hungry, cold, frightened, abandoned
child in the street and say, ooh, |
can't be bothered"
No man or woman who reads these
lines but would instantly share their
dinner with a woman, gaunt with
hunger, pale and sickly baby at her
breast, an injured and helpless child
at her feet.
TIE cry we hear, the sight we see,
touches our hearts. The cry we hear
of, the sights we are told about-they
do not reach.
Five hundred thousand women and
children and men-more babies than
grown-ups, more women than men,
raise thin arms and send a pitiful cry
across the sea to us-to you and to
you and to you for help. Not theirs
the cause of the disaster; theirs but
the price to pay. Not theirs the glory
of war; theirs but the bodies to suf-
fer, the souls to cry in anguish at
the pitiful childish wall for food that
is not, for shelter that is not, fol-
clothing that is not. Not theirs to
understand why; theirs only to face
the West, the great and glorious and
prosperous and happy and safe and
secure West-our West, our United
States, and ask for aid.
The president of the United States
has asked your aid. The Red Cross
stretches out eager hands for your
dollars, to use in aid. Your own
chubby baby, healthy child, strong
and we'll young son or daughter, is
an appeal to you that you pass these
suffering one of the near East not
by; that you do not say, 81 can't be
bothered" but that you put your ten
pennies, or ten dollars, or whatever
you can afford, in an envelope and
send it to the nearest Red Cross head
quarters, marked "For Near East Re.

law, plays up a policy of contempt
for law and its enforcement, and in
it's news and editorial columns fosters
law-breaking, that newspaper Is do
ing more to destroy American insti-
tutions than federal judge can do
to maintain them," declared Attorney
General Daughtery in recent speech.
No one will disagree with him.
But there will be many who disagree
with the implication some may find
in this pronouncement, that disespect
for law is bred in the American press.
Without trying to place any blame
where it belongs, attention of the
thoughtful is drawn to two recent in
stances in which those who administer
the law taught people to disrespect
it.
In Wilkes-Barre, Pa, man, charg-
ed with wife beating, was being tried
before a magistrate. Becoming in
tensely incensed with the prisoner
because of the character of the evil
dence given against him, the magis-
trate jumped over his desk, gave him
black eye, had him stand up and
blacked the other eye, after which
he fined him ten dollars.
There is here no sympathy for the
wife-beater. Doubtless he deserved
more than he got. But he didn't de-
serve, in a court of law, anything
but a calm, dispassionate, and ju-
dicial hearing. The law does not pro-
vide for magistrates doing their own
eye-blacking.
The governor of a middle-western
state commuted a death sentence to
life Imprisonment, first getting the
convict in question to sign a paper
agreeing that should he or his friends
attempt to gain further clemency for
him, the communication will cease and
he again face the death penalty.
Poetic justice" perhaps, but is there
law anywhere which permits an Of
fetal with committing power to bar
gain with convicts? And does it
make for respect for law to deprive
any convict of hope?
To most of us, law is impersonal;
it is the law officer who makes the
law live for US. As we respect him,
we respect that for which he stands;
as we may laugh at, or sneer at, or
condemn him, so, unconsciously, do
we wrongly but very humanity con-
denim the law.
