“K .P.” as a Military Term.

Sweeney was a new recruit; he was also a Knight of Columbus. His second day at Fort Thomas was spent in hours of tiresome drill. Toward evening the top sergeant called out: “All K. P.’s step forward.” Twelve men advanced and, when the others were dismissed, followed the officer toward the mess halls. Sweeney was tired and hungry and his blood boiled-at the thought of the favoritism about to be shown to the dozen of Knights of Pythias. He followed the men, cursing under his breath, and on reaching the hall was relieved to hear the gruff “top” exclaim: “Now, you kitchen police, get busy !”—Argonaut.

Criticism.

“Father,” said the small boy, “what Is constructive criticism?” “Constructive criticism, my son, Is your own line of talk which if offered by some one else would be called ordinary fault-finding.”

So to Speak.

“Lots of pretty girls visit the cantonments.” “More than you can shake a swagger stick at,”

In matrimony one and one makes one, but in divorce one from one leaves two. Rain falls alike upon the just and the unjust, but the latter use It as a chaser. s> NO WASTE IN A PACKAGE OF PostWies Com Food Good IbThe Last Flake

BASEBALL magnate now serving in FRANCE WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES

This is the first photograph of Capt. T. L. Huston, part owner with Col. Jacob Ruppert, of the New York American league baseball club, who is serving as a captain of engineers with the American expeditionary forces In France. Some of the engineers are now reported fighting with the British against the German drive. Whether or not Captain Huston is with them is not known. Though busy with his duties of war he finds time occasionally to think of baseball. Recently he wrote a letter from “Somewhere in France” in which he expressed his disapproval of many things his fellow baseball magnates have been doing recently. He impugned their spirit and said considering that the country was at war there was altogether too much talk of money and too many big trades.

BEST BACKSTOP RECORDS

A catcher who works in at least 100 games each season is worth a liberal salary. Last year's major league records! show that these men passed the century mark behind the bat: National league :* Killifer and Wingo, each 120 games, and Rariden, 100; American league: Schalk and Severeix, each 139 games; O’Neill, 127, and Ainsmlth, 119. Those who caught between 90 and 100 games were Sianage of Detroit, Nunamaker of the Yankees, Miller of Brooklyn, Snyder of the Cardinals and Tragresser of the Braves.

PING BODIE TALKS LIKE PLAYER FULL OF PEPPER

“I am thirty years young and have about four or five years of major league baseball in me yet. If it hadn’t been for a disagreement with Jimmy Callahan in 1914, I never would have been out o£ the big league. I weigh 15 pounds less today than when I reported to Connie Mack at Jacksonville last spring, and I know positively that I am in for a good season.” Ping Bodie was speaking. He had engaged in two strenuous work-outs at the Macon ball yard with all the enthusiasm of a schoolboy who has ambitions to make his school team, and Bodie did not hesitate to say that he was ready at that to play more baseball. “I have always liked to play the game.” continued Ping, “and for that reason itn ever has become difficult for me to give my best efforts all the time. Just look at last season. I came very close to getting in the .300 class, and I bet that I get there this year. I did my best last year, but somehow or other I imagine that I will get better breaks with a club that has a first-di-vision stamp on It. If I miss that .300 class, it ‘will not be through lack of effort.”

Means the Same Thing.

“What’s become of the old-fashion-ed sporting editor who called a lefthanded pitcher a southpaw’” “Oh, he’s still up and about, but I notice that he has an assistant who calls a left-handed pitcher a portside hurier.”—Louisville Courier;Journal.

STALLINGS IS “MIRACLE MAN”

Manager of Braves Christened as Such After Victory of for Championship. George T. Stallings, manager of the Boston Nationals, was christened the

miracle man of baseball after his world’s championship victory of 1914, with the Boston Braves. Stallings Is fortynine years old.

He ran fifth with the Braves in 1913, won the pennant and world’s championship In 1914. Stallings’ team ran second In 1915, third in 1916 and sixth in 1917.

DIAMOND NOTES

Baseball fans are showing great interest in the world’s series on the western front. »•• • ' The Kansas City club has turned Infielder'Joe Wagner over to the Louisville club. Captain Huston thinks the magnates have failed to do their bit. Haven’t they'arranged to collect the w-ar tax? Connie Mack’s refusal to pay Jake Munch the salary he demands may leave that young man to his coal business this season. Bill Sherdell, the left-hander froth whom the St. Louis Cardinals are expecting much, declares that Paddy Livingston made him a real pitcher. • • •. Claire Goodwin and Jack Killilay, former • Coast league flayers, have Joined the army medical service and are on duty at the Presidio. San Francisco. • • • Pitchers Milligan and Evans, who made the trip to the Pirates’ training ca;np with the first squad. dfd not linger long, both being called to Uncle Sam’s colors. • • • Manager Fielder Jones of the St. Louis Browns is crying for a lefthanded pitcher,, but where will he get one? There seems to be a sudden shortage of southpaws in both major leagues and particularly ln z the American. u - ♦ • * Arthur Shafer, who used to playthird base for the Giants, has ggaln taken up the game.

USE GIRL USHERS

Girls are to replace men In ; most of the work at the Columbus American association base- ' ball parks this season, according . to present plans. The reason for the change, as explained by President and Man- ; ager Joe Tinker, is a mixture . of patriotism and the extreme difficulty in obtaining men for the work. When fans buy their tickets ■ they will receive their change ; from a fair cashier. They will • hand their ducats to a trim bru- ; nette, or perhaps a blonde. A i uniformed girl will operate the ; turnstiles, and girls will be em- > ployed as ushers. [ i

MAY CALL DIAMOND PLAYERS IN DRAFT

Summons for More Men Likely to Wreck Many Big Teams. Magnates Not Sure of Holding Stars Till Close of 1918 Season —Gaping Holes May Be Seen in LineUp of Stars. Major league club owners are ntft at all sure of holding players within the draft age until the close of the 1918 season. With the next draft call, men of draft age will be rushed to army cantonments just as fast as it is possible for the government to get them there, and as the boys in Class 1A are Called there may be gaping holes in many a big league line-up by July 1. “ Such players as Benny Kauff, Al Mamaux, Ray Chapman, Red Faber, Grover Cleveland Alexander and George Burns may be wearing khaki instead of big league uniforms by midsummer. And there is no use underestimating the extent that the loss of their services would amount to. Should the Giants lose Kauff, McGraw’s outfield would be practically wrecked. Davey- Robertson’s determination to quit the game was a hard enough blow, but the dashing little centerfielder of Federal league fame would be missed even more than Robertson were he to go. • In the case of Ray Chapman, who may be taken from the Indians, his going would wreck Lee Fohl’s infield. One of the best shortstoppers in the business. Chapman’s presence on the Cleveland inner circle is imperative to give it balance. Without him the Indian infield would be like a boat without a rudder. The White Sox could ill afford to lose the services of Red Faber, who is bfdng depended on to win many games for’ them this season, and should the Cubs lose Alexander his. shoes could not possibly be filled. While Al Mamaux is somewhat of an experiment for the Dodgers, Uncle Robby is counting heavily on him to come back and star as the headliner of the Brooklyn staff, so If he goes Brooklyn will suffer. There are a good many other players whose status Is not definite. Some of them could be spared well enough, but others pre badly needed. c So the magnate is getting ready to open the season without assurance that he can put a ball club in the field and keep it there. The magnates, however, are not yelping. They will stand any loss with a smile and consider that it adds to “their bit” ,

ONLY NEED TO CURB WASTE

Writer Points Out Reasons Why It Is Not Hard for American People to Save. I do not know of a thing which evevryone of us needs to keep closer to his consciousness than saving wherever and whenever possible. What most of us are prone to forget our greatest asset at this time —the amount and extent of what we can save. As a people and as Individuals we have been necessarily and disgracefully wasteful, have spent money, food, energy, productivity, simply because we were too lazy and Indifferent to get no more than we needed to satisfy our reasonable desires. Seriously, that past wastefulness is just now about our greatest asset. We can save what we must without involving a degree of real sacrifice which the French, Belgian, and English people had at once to face. As I look upon it, saving at a real cost to one’s comfort, ideals, and perhaps health is not an easy thing, though a very fine one. But saving for such easy-going reckless-spending people as we have been, means so little sacrifice of anything necessary or worth while that a man or woman will be some sort of a yellow cur or nameless pup not to do his or her utmost every day and every hour to save, save,save —and win.—By Roland G. Usher of she Vigilantes, Author of Pan-Amer-ican. o

WILLING TO SHARE DANGER

Brave French Woman No More Afraid of Air Raid Than Her Husband Was of Shells. All Paris is laughing over the sangfroid of a young married mldlnette on the occasion of a recent air raid on Paris. The heroine resides on the top story of a large apartment house, and when the warning was given was sound asleep. The concierge, finding that she did not descend to the underground shelter, raced upstairs and banged at the door. After repeated .hammerings he woke the lady up, and called to her to immediately descend to the basement as a raid was on and she was in great danger on the top floor. The reply he got was: "Go away and let me sleep. My husband is in the trenches. Do'you think he gets into a dugout every time a shell falls? Why should L therefore, I be frightened of an air raid?”

“Germany loves the little nations—Belgium. Roumania, Serbia and soon — and now it appears that she loves the big nations, like Russia, too.” ,The speaker was Saburo Okabe of the Japanese embassy. “But all of us.” he went on, “see through Germany as clearly as the pretty Chicago heiress saw through the titled fortune hunter. "*You love me?’ she said to the fortune hunter, lightly. ‘Oh, yes. of course —you love for my pelf alone.”’
