cause of the Smith Bancroft feud.
In the only game played yester-
day, the ST. Louis Cardinals ad.
vanced to within half a game of
the BUGS by swapping the Philliss,
10 to 3. The game was a home
run orgy.
Four st. Louis players,
Blades, Hafey, Soluble and
SherdeI. lift for the circuit. The
Cards have won six out of
seven ON their eastern trip.
The Detroit Tigers, with just a
chinaman's chance of nosing out
the Yankees. begin a series with
the league leaders today. Detroit
has won thirteen straight and the
Yanks have dropped four in a row,
their longest losing streak OF the
season. Detroit's string of victories
Is the longest OF the current season
in the American League.
BY winning eighteen of their re-
naming thirty-seven games, the

in December, 1918, l was discharged.
l suffered terribly, had to sleep out
doors, greeted the milkman every
morning, had no Appetite tried
everything any one would tell me
about, but with no real relief. In

and felt considerably better the next
morning. l kept on improving and by
early spring, 1925, the wheeling and
all other symptoms were completely
gone, and since then (three years. /

EskimOland)
NORTH POLEVILLE, ESKIMO
LAND, Nov. 19.-CBy radio)-I have
interviewed Santa Claus in his own
castle, rubbed the noses of his ia
vorite reindeer and taken the kind
old fellows picture.
After months of hardShips, dur
ing which our party fought its way
by boat along the coast, northward
from Seattle, battled ice foes of
the Coast of Alaska and ''mushed'
miles over snow and frozen ground
with dog teams, we reached North
Poleville.
Eskimo Woman Helps
Reindeer, just like those used by
Santa, were hitched to our sleds
during the last part of the journey
because the going really was toe
rough for even the sturdy dogs.
Eskimo guides. Enthusiastically CARRIED
in huge fur outfits, aided us for
many days. 1t looked for while
as though we might fail. In fact
we had just about given up, when
we met An-nung, wrinkled old
Eskimo woman. She started north
with us and we travelled many
more days and nights.
Really it was night all the time,
for in this country the sun doesn't
shine for three months in the win
ter, but the moon, shining on the
snow makes it almost as light as
day.
Visit North Winds Cave
We came to a gap in the noun
tains through which such fierce
wind was blowing that even the
reindeer could hardly face it. and
the snow was whirling and swirline
in such a fury around us we could
scarcely see the reindeer in front
of the sleigh. This wind, old An
nung told us. came from the cave
of "Layluk," the North Wind.
No Eskimo had ever been beyond
it, because Layluk is fierce spirit
He wears a coat as black as an
Arctic night and everytime he
shakes the folds of his coat, such
icy blasts come blowing from the
North that everything is covered
with ice and snow and the Eskimo
cannot fish.
vAe met Layluk and took his pic
ture with the reindeer teams. This
made him happy and he allowed us
to go through.
More News Monday
I am writing this on little desk
Santa has had made for a little boy
in indianapolis. This little boy
wrote Santa way last September
and asked that he be given desk
So santa thought, this little boy is
a real early Christmas shopper and

I will send another radiogram to

getting to see Santa Claus and TAX
ing his picture. I also will try to
send telephoto picture taken UP

made an instrument like those in
