THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
HARDING's AMERIcANIsM.

ONE of the legacies left by
President Harding to his
countrymen was his concep-
ton of stalwart Americanism
as expressed in the following
words uttered by him January
8, 1920:
ITO safeguard America
first; ito stabilize America first;
to prosper America first; to
think America first; to exalt
America first; to live for and
revere America first. Call it
the selhshness of nationality
if you will. | think it an in
spiration to patriotic devotion.
We may do more than prove
exemplars to the world of en-
during representative demo-
cracy where the Constitution
and its liberties are mistaken.
We may go on securely to
the destined fulhllment and
make a strong and |
generous nations contribution
to human progress, forceful
in example, generous in con-
tribution, helpful in all suffer
ing and fearless in all con-
fiicts. Let the International
ist dream and the bolshevist
destroy. God pity him for
whom no minstrel raptures
swell. In the spirit of the
republic we proclaim Ameri-
canism and acclaim America.

CAUSE OF APPENDICITIS.

When the bowels are constipated,
the lower bowels or large intestines
become packed with refuse matter,
that is made up largely of germs.
These germs enter the vermiform
appendix and set up inflammation,
which is commonly known as appen !.
dicitis. Take Chamberlain's Tablets
when needed and keep your bow els
regular and you have little to fear
from appendicitis.-adv. August.

AN ARTICLE OF EXPORT.

ONE can now buy a million
paper German marks for a
dime. Yet that seems a large
price for a worthless piece of
paper. However, it is profit
able to Germany if by print
ing a fancy design on a piece
of paper she can sell it abroad
for ten cents in real money.
Printed paper of that kind has
been one of Germany's most
profitable articles of export
since the war, the sales in
America alone being estimat-
ed at about one billion dollars
in gold.

GEORGE S|SLER
SLATED AS
MANAGER
By DAVIS j. WALSH.

NEW YORK. Aug. 6.-The latest
whisper, right off the back stairs,
is that George Sisler will take
charge Of the Browns, supplanting
Lee Foil in actually, II not in
name, as soon as the club returns
to st. Louis. This report is COM
mon gossip around the temporary
headquarters of the Browns here,
it to be accepted as fact.
The same story claims to be
authority for the statement that
Sisler will not attempt TO resume
active ball playing this season, but
will work out with the club in pre-
game practice and direct its &C
tivities from the bench. Meanwhile
Foil is supposed to remain about
the premises, saying nothing with
his usual facility.
At the end of the season, 1t is
alleged, Foil is to be waited gently
but firmly out and Sisler definitely
appointed manager Of the ball
club.
Part two Of the sad tale has it
that Sisler wants to resume playing
when the Yankees appear in ST.
Louis in the immediate future, but
that physicians in charge OF the
case have asked waivers on the
idea, in toto. They grant that Sis
ler's impaired vision has improved
TO the extent that he is able to play
golf, but fear the worst if he at,
tempts to hurry his recovery by a
premature return to baseball. Their
recommendation that Sislcr be kept
out of the game until next season
is said to have been accepted in
good part by Phil Ball, president of
the club.
However. it seems that the latter
has turned a Dir sour on Foil rs
manager, in spite of the fact that
the club has run consistent thr |
for some weeks.
II, as insinuated. Sisler is ulti-

Iris Speakers popularity with

The Gray Eagle was applauded
wildly when he came to bat in the
first and, though he got his two

plause followed the wallop. When
he made his fine running catch of
Gharrity's low fly in the eighth,
doubling up Harris on sec ond and
cutting the Griffs off from a pos
sible victory, the veteran Cleveland
leader was given great hand.
Speakers personality Is what
makes him popular with players
and fans everywhere.
The truly terrific heat and
humidity proved strain on many
of the players. Cuckoo Jamieson's
uniform was soaked through. So
was Joe Sewell's. Frank Brewer,
though a Virginian, looked as if he
had been in swimming before the
afternoon was done. Small wonder
that those venerable hurlers, Walter
Johnson and Stan Coveleskie, had
to quit.
Jake Propst worked out at third
hs sc before the game. He is a tall
lad with plenty Of looseness in his
action. DOME Bush, not daring to
break up a winning combination,
will hardly send him into a game
yet awhile.

they lost all six games played.
Sixteen runs to thirty-nine for

nine hits in six games was the
lightest hitting of the week.
