Clements Team Wins
From BrOOkville

Clements, June 29-The Clements
baseball club played at Morgan Tues
day at the Community Picnic with a
complete line up and beat the Brook
vile Cubs to the tune of to IL. Les
ter Hansen who has been pitching for
Brookville several years twirled for
what seemed to be a Morgan line up
but this did not discourage the fast
Clements Giants so for the first seven
innings Bloedow, the Clements
moundsman proved his ability to
strike out men just when he pleased
only after considerable coaxing al
lowed them to run in few scores in
order to show the crowd better
game. Every member of the local
club deserves credit for the playing
which they exhibited in Tuesdays
game.
Sunday with three players out OF
the regular line up Clements was de-
feated on the Seaforth diamond. The
first three innings gave Seaforth
their lead of five scores but Clements
rallied in the fourth with five and
two in the eight whereas Seaforth
ran up their score to eight in the
eight. The errors were Clements 8,
Seaforth 5. Hits, Seaforth 6, Glenn
ents 8. Strike outs, Clements 10,
Seaforth z. The batteries were Sea-
forth, Rebel and Katzenberger,
Clements, Cannot, Bloedow and
Drexler. The boys are again warm
ing up Lefty Cannot to relieve
Bloedow who is in his first baseball
year but has proven to batters his
ability and if Harry don't throw his
arm "away" there will be some
scouts out from the bigger leagues
and that will mean that it will be
necessary for Clements to break in
another pitcher. Clements and Sea-
forth play again on the local diamond
the first Sunday in August. Let's
have little support for the gang.

Wales and Prince George are under
taking trade boosting mission in South
America, the King and Queen and other
members Of the family are occupying a
good deal Of their time at home with
n1atters Of industrial import.
This has been shown in a very def
mite way by the royal interest in the
British Industries Fair one section of 1t
In London and the other in Birming-
ham. It's success was made a family
ambition. Not only did the King and
Queen show an active interest in 1t but
abe Duke and Duchess OF York, Prince
Henry and Princess Mary and her hus-
band, Lord Hardwood, also visited the
scenes Of trades display to help Stimu-
late national interest. The Queen in
particular set q practical example by
following the 1ntuncttons of some noted
economists hereaboutS to buy and not
hoard. Her purchases were numerous,
some Of the objects acquired being
sought with an eye to distribution as
Christmas presents year hence.
But her majesty also emerged in the
role of q style setter. While watching a

openly that the ultra -long gowns they

Pineapple Industry
Growing in Hawaii

HONOLULU, Hawaii. ~ Early esti-

Hawaii indicate that this faSt-grow1ng
industry. will continue to climb the
heights. Unofficial estimates place the
pack In the neighborhood Of 100000
cases Of "a cans each.
The three biggest companies-Ma-
waiian Pineapple, Libby, McNeiu &

tion-will, it is expected, together pack
more than the total output Of last yea.
California Packing Corporation in re-
cent years has been looking for suitable
pineapple lands outside Hawaii and Is
just getting started on production In the
Philippines and Haiti. In Hawaii this
year it is expected to pack at least about
100000.
It's crop last year was somewhere be-
tween $3.50, 900 and $500, 900 and it also
turned out in the Philippines about
10000 cases and in Haiti about $4,000
cases. The two latter packs are used
chiefly in the export trade, while most
Of the Hawaiian pack supplies the do

Abandonment of "Spoils System" Hailed
By General Public Opinion in Ireland

DUBLN.-One Of the boldest limo
vations in administration made by the
Free State government was the with
drawal from the local municipal and
other bodies throughout the country of
the power of making appointments to
all important ofnces. An act of Parlia-
ment was passed for this purpose in
1927 and it Is raising among local
councillors an outcry against ceptraliza-
ton. General public opinion, however,
has welcomed the change as affording
the maximum Of opportunity to the
poor mans son.
Hitherto local appointments went to
the candidates with the strongest pull.
Vigorous canvaSsing was carried on and
there was evidence in several cases that
the coveted job was gained by purchase.
One Of the most successful Of the Abbey
Theater plays was based on this expert
ence, and The Bride" still continues to
be performed on the stage, though 1t
has now only a historic interess.
The new system is one Of appoint
ment solely by merit A commission Of
three high civil servants in Dublin ex-
amines the applications for a job They
nominate a selection board, which scrI-
tinizes the candidates qualifications
and history. Nobody knows the names
of the selection boards. Canvassing has
disappeared. The local authority has
no say in the matter and must appoint
the man selected in Dublin for it, and

l. Of the most important news OF
the world for the seven days
4 ended March 20, 1881:
BRITISH COMMONWEALTH
OF NATIONS.-On March 81 Cam
bridge beat oxford in the annual race
on the Thames (Putney to Morlake,
about A miles, by over two lengths
in 10 minutes rs seconds. 1t was the
eighth successive Cambridge victory.
For long time past Cambridge has
beaten oxford pretty regularly in all
sports. It Is a plausible enough theory
that the institution of Rhodes scholar
ships, with consequence OF so many
Americans on oxford teams. put Cam
bridge on her mettle, aroused certain
passion of nationalsim in Cambridge,
mother of poets. This most classic OF
rowing events-the Oxford-C Cambridge
varsity race-had its beginning in 1929
and 80 races have been fought, whereof
Cambridge has won AZ and Oxford 40,
with one dead heat. The record time
was made by the oxford eight of 1911,
namely, 1929. The coaching Is en-
tirely amateur, by old Light or Dark
Blues.
Timothy M. Healy, first governor
general Of the Irish Free State

dom, wit and singular charm.

modus vivendi with the British authori-
ties. There has been a violent resur-
gence of Hindu-Moslem clashes. In
such clashes in Cawnpore one day saw
so killed and 200 wounded, not to mem
ton burning and footing. But the great
news arrives that the Nationalist ex-
tremistS have knuckled under (notice
whereof next week..
SPAIN.-On March % King Alfonso
signed a decree completely restoring
constitutional guarantees in Spain, not
hitherto completely restored since in
stitution OF the dictatorship by Primo
de Rivera in 1923.
Municipal elections are to be held
throughout Spain on April IL.
OF course, a verdict of guilt was
brought in against the six most promi-
nent signers of the revolutionary proc
lamation Of last December, whose trial
took place recently, but the sentences
FOR one and all we're merely nominal,
namely, six months and one day. AS
a matter of fact, they were, in accord
ance with Spanish law applying to such
sentences, at once put on parole, viz
Cually amounting TO freedom. They had

The situation develops Enthusiastically
and somewhat threateningly. We hear
a good deal of the possibility of a. new
dictatorship, and the name of Gen.
Anido, Primo de Rivera's strong" min
lister Of the interior, is on many lips in
that connection.

In this connection there will undoubt-
edly be demand for an imposition of
Federal taxes on automobiles. To be
sure, a strong argument can be made
that an automobile nowadays is a neces-
sity and not luxury. Still, it may be
well to recall that in 1924 the Govern
ment collected $112,000,000 in taxes on
automobiles and motor cycles.
Congress also will consider lowering
the present exemption limits as to in
come taxes and increasing the normal
taxes. The minimum normal tax is
now l 12 per cent and the maximum 5
per cent. The present exemption of
$1,000 for an unmarried person and of
$500 for the head of family will also
be considered and there will be an effort
to lower these amounts.
Liquor Revenue Suggested.
OF course, the demand will be made
TO abandon prohibition and raise need
ed revenue by the liquor business
When the eighteenth amendment went
into effect the Government was well
on the way to getting $500, 00O, 900 a
year from this source, and probably
would collect that much or more il
prohibition were abandoned. OF course,
~ Will 1lOO DC dDaQQOneQ DeIOre taxes
are revised again, but much will be
said about the revenue side Of the pro-
hibition question.
The Government today Is collecting
steadily mounting sum from tobacco
taxes. These amount now to nearly
$400, 100000 a year. While this is an
enormous tax to be raised in one in
dustry, suggestions probably will be
made for increasing the burden if there
is q general upward tax revision
The revival of part of the war taxes
may be advocated, such as the docu-
mentary and kindred taxes. These
levies, troublesome as they were, never
yielded vast return to the Govern
ment. The peak was about $4,000, 900.
Normal Revenue $4,000, 200, 900. :
The highest revenues raised by the
Government in any year since the war
amounted to sees, 565, 1859. In recent
years the total has ranged close to
$4,000, 100000. But tIlsk cannot long
obtain If the $4,000, 100000 Congress
has coEae to stay.

There Are No Individuals
BY BRUCE BARTON.

7 WAS invited to speak be-
fore the officers and sales
men of a large industrial
4 organization, and the other
speaker was DR.. Abraham
Myerson, the distinguished
psychiatrist.
He wanted to make those
men understand how every
member of an organization
reacts and is reacted upon
subconsciously by every other
member; how none of us in
modern society is a separate
individual, but all, as the
Bible says, members OF each
other"
He used this illustration:

with the various rooms eX-
posed and the people who
were in those rooms.

master, waiting at the table
to have his meal served; in
the next room were the butler
and the maid engaged in what
we should call a 'petting
party In the kitchen one
observed the cook feeding the
butcher boy some crackers
and milk, while on the back
porch the cat slept peacefully.
Here was, apparently "a happy
domestic scene.
But see what happened.

the food which apparently did
not please the master of the
house. He spoke his mind
freely and harshly to the but

II the local authority disobeys It can
be, and is, at once dissolved and its
place taken by a a manager sent down
from Dublin. These managers have as
a rule proved efficient administrators
and the average ratepayer is satisfied
to see the work capably done at less
cost. Critics are told that the plan Of
such city management originated in
America.
Some local councillors are glad to be
relieved Of the bother they used to have
in deciding between the claims Of rival
candidates But usually the local
bodies resent the curtailment Of their
patronage. Men who have been steady
supporters of President Cosgrave's gov
eminent have in some places kicked
against its centralizing policy, threaten
ing TO oppose it at the next election.

thinks the local authorities should be
allowed some choice, and that instead
OF being ordered to appoint an indi-
Wdual named to them should be fur
nished with list of three from whom
to choose. In the campaign against the
government this local appointments
issue Is, it is believed, likely to affect
the electors in some critical constitu-
encieS.

1.-THE maid burst into tears:
She went in to Scold the cook,
and during the subsequent
argument, slapped the cooks
face. The cook, in her anger,
Snatched the food away from
the butcher boy, who, on his
way out, kicked the cat down
the back steps.
"a graphic example," said
DR.. MyerSon, "of how an emo
ton of fear or i'll will or
meannesS spreads through an
entire organization. Cheer
fulneSS and courage can
spread just as far and fast"
You and I are not individ-
uals. Even Robinson CruSoe
ceased to be an individual
with the arrival on the scene
of his faithful man Friday. He
became then a member of
society of two, each living the
life of the other.
I imagine that DR.. Myerson
could tell us many cases of
men who have gone downtown
and worked faithfully all day,
only to utter a word or cast a
glance on their way out of the
office which more than multi
fed their whole days work.
What you are" said Emer-
son, "thunderS so loud I can't
hear what you say"
What we are inside changes
the inner life of our families,
our business associates and
our fellow citizens. We can
not harbor fear or anger or
SelfiShness without diluting
the emotional blood-Stream
Of the race.
And every courageous or
unSelfish emotion builds up
the whole worlds stock of
courage and faith.

for modifying the law as to the amount
of money to be credited each year to
the sinking fund for payment Of the
public debt. 1t Is argued that the
debt should be reduced more gradually
and part of the burden put on the
shoulders of the next generation.
Something may come of this demand,
although Senator Reed Smoot, chair
man Of the Senate Finance Commit
tee, said recently he was opposed to
reduction of the sinking fund.

age Englishwoman regards six inches
from the ground as the medium length
skirt OF today. The extremely short
frock has never been seen at the royal
courts because Of her majesty's OPPOSE
ton to such styles. Her Just above the

,urbation in dressmaking establishments,
for no one can tell what influence her
remarks may have upon women in gen.
eral. It is even said that the Queens
opinion will be boon to many who do
lot want TO throw away money on ultra
long frocks. But 1t remains to be seen
what effect the royal attitude will have
on the styles Of the immediate future.
Among the Queens purchases was a

her granddaughter, Princess Elizabeth.
