Evans Explains

Billy Evans, general manager Of the Cleveland club and himself formerly one of the most popular umpires in the game, believes the hot pennant races, unusually num- erous all over this season, has caus- ed the storm on the umpire's door steps
 You know that raging the umps is a big part of the game" Billy says. T know as I once got my share. But this year it appears to be worse than ever and. the only reason I can advance is that the races everywhere are so close. The imaginations of the managers, owners and fans alike are fired. Then there have been few chang es in the rules and the fans, not quite accustomed to them, blame disputes on the umps."
 The era of the steel shafted golf club may be here but one of the greatest masters of the game, Mac Smith, still clings to the wooden ones.
 I'm quite satisfied with my game so why change wooden horses in the middle of creek?" argued E1ac at Inverness.

New York city teaching appli-
cants of thousands of dollars on
the promise of obtaining them
positions in the city school system
without examination.

held. It was said, however, they
were not connected with the

far as the individual official
was concerned.
TN case of n war involving
his own country the individual
would have to choose, probably,
between two courses:
Il. Resign from the League
and return to fulfill his obi
cations to his country, or
"2. Remain loyal to his
League oath with the likelihood
he would have to renOunce his
national citizenship.
Traitor Brand Likely
whatever course the indi.
vidual might choose, he would
be liable to be branded as a
traitor to his country, or as
false to his League oath.
Further, in countries where
military service is compulsory
he would probably be branded
as a deserter if he remained at
the League and did not fulfill
his national obligations"

Caragana Hedges Being Strip
ped, Protective Measures
Outlined

During the past few days
swarms of countless thousands Of
bean beetles, varying in size from
little tiny ones to some measur-
ing more than an inch in length
have appeared on numerous cara
CANA hedges.
These voracious insects consume
leaves from these hedges every "a
hours sufficient to constitute twice
their own size, and their growth is
amazing. Unless checked quickly they
will strip the hedges bare in a very
few days and then move elsewhere
to continue their depredations.
We have personally had much ex-
perience in fighting this pest, and if
these purple and black beetles (gray
when small) appear in your hedge or
on your beans or pea vines, effective
means to completely obliterate the
swarm can be obtained by spraying
with a mixture of water and arsenate
of lead mixed in similar amounts as
for potato bug poisoning, but add a
quarter of bar of cheap laundry soap
