that the money mentioned was $l2,-
200.
Today Uncle Wilbcrt can survey
eight precious victories-preeious
because they cost the Robins man
agcment in the neighborhood of
s2.3l5 each, which is big money even
in Brooklyn.
During the first half of the 1929
season Vance. in return for the
S12.JOO he receives for that period,
pitched Brooklyn to five victories.
MeWceney's $4,000 for the same
period resulted in three Brooklyn
triumPhs.
Together the pair have lost IL
games-Nanec four and McWeeney
seven.
The fault. however. can hardly he
laid az the door of Uncle Wilbert.
Vance, first of all, led the league
last wear in earned runs allowed
with a percentage Of 30 per nine in
niugs. He won - games against
10 defeats and he struck out an
even 200 opposing batsmen.
McWeeney's record was not rs
impressive for his IA victories IN
1925 were offset by IA defeats. His
earned run average of S15 was
proof, however, of his ability ON the
mound.
Vance has been unable TO take his
turn on the mound because of vary
ing and frequent ailments. At the
present he is nursing a sore arm.
McWeeney trouble is harder TO
define. He just can It seem to pitch
the baseball of which he has proved
himself capable in the past.

PURE AIR FOR THE SICK

Science has improved on nature in
the fight to save the life of King
George of England. London air in
midwinter, even without it's large SCOT
content, is raw and cold and not very
healthful for anyone suffering from
respiratory illness. Yet the King is
breathing warm, pure air and is re-
ceiving the beneficial effects of sun
baths, both supplied by modern
science.
The air is drawn from pipes in the
palace garden. 1t is first washed in
a constant shower of icy water, con-
tanning a germicide Then it is dried
by a process of condensation and is
warmed over steam-heated plates to
the required temperature. Next it is
given the correct humidity by the adj
dition of steam. Ozone is added as
needed. This correctly constituted air
is pumped directly into the sick room
of the monarch.
The sunlight, of course, is supplied
by ultraviolet rays.
Perhaps, in time, all hospitals will
supply patients with perfect air and
sunshine. If, also, the smoke nuisance
in cities is overcome, people on the
streets will get more sunlight and
better air than city-dwellers any
where.

almost any crime is a felony, have
made their laws ridiculous in opera
ton as in the case in Michigan where
a woman found guilty for the fourth
time of violating the prohibition law
was given life sentence. No matter
whether a criminal is known as an
"habituap or not, punishment should
fit the crime.
A measure has been presented to
the Pennsylvania legislature pattern
ed in a general way after the New
York statute, but providing always
for an appeal to a higher court and
giving the judge some discretion 1t
is also provided that when crimi-
nal is convicted the second time he
receives double the sentence for first
conviction, three times the sentence
for the third, four times for the fourth
and so on.
Good motives back of the enactment
of certain laws do not always make
good laws. We need more drastic
sentences for those who have become
professionals in the commission of
crimes, but in all cases the punish
ment should fit the degree of the
criminal act.

AMERICAN INDIVIDUALISM

President elect Herbert Hoover
in Nations Business makes out a
strong case for American individual
ism as contrasted with the social phil
osophies of other countries of the
world.
Give or six great social philioso-
phies," he says, "are at struggles in
the world for ascendancy. There is
the Individualism of America. There
is the Individualism of the more dem
ocratic states of Europe with the care
full reservations of castles and classes.
"There are Communism, Socialism,
Syndicalism, Capitalism and finally
there is Autocracy--whether by birth,
by possession, militarism or divine
right of kings.
Our individualism differs from all
others because it embraces those great
ideals: that while we build our society
upon the attainment of the individual,
we shall safeguard to every individual
an equality of opportunity to take
that position in the community to
which his intelligence, character, abil-
ity and ambition entities him; that we
keep the social solution free from
frozen strata of classes; that we shall
stimulate effort of each Individual to
achievement; that through an enlarg-
ing sense of responsibility and under
standing we shall assist him to his at
tainment.
owe in America have had too much
experience to fool ourselves into pre-
tending that all men are equal in abil-
ity, in character, in intelligence, in
ambition. That was part of the clap
trap of the French Revolution. We
have grown to understand that all we
can hope to assure to the individual
through government is liberty, justice,
intellectual welfare, equality of oppor
tunity and stimulation of service.
"The pioneers of our American In
dividualism had the good sense not to
reward Washington and Jefferson and
Hamilton with hereditary dukedome
and fixtures in landed estates as
Great Britain rewarded Marlborough
and Nelson. Otherwise our American
fields of opportunity would have been
cIogged with long generations inher-
iting their fathers privileges without
their fathers capacities"

Feed The Birds!

Losses of birds-game, song and
insectivorous-and game animals in
winter can be prevented by systematic
feeding and an appeal to the public of
Maryland to contribute its part in
saving the remnants of wild life at
this time, is made by the State Game
Division. While it is now mid-winter,
it is not too late to check up on the
bird and game life of your section and
to intensity and extend facilities for
feeding and caring for birds and game
animals.
Feeding stations should be estab-
lished wherever birds can be located,
in exposed places which the wind will
