Keep the Game Clean

Every lover of baseball, from the boy in knee trousers to the hilarious middle-aged fan, hopes

that the investigation by the Chicago grand jury will result either in a complete refutation of the charges of corruption or in the expose of the

fmiltv men.

Baseball is traditionally the national game of

the United States. Its popularity has rested se

curely on the confidence which the fans had in

the integrity of the players and owners of the clubs. This confidence was responsible for the

crowds that attended the games and for the millions who watched for returns during the play ing season.

Let the public doubt the integrity of the

' players, let them believe that games "are thrown," that players will accept bribes and the management consent to poor playing, and the national pastime is doomed. Nothing will be able to redeem it. Once foot races and wrestling bouts were popular. Today every lover of athletics is skeptical about them. Dishonesty among contestants is responsible for the apathy and distrust. The investigation has indicated that the managers and owners of the big clubs are sincere in their efforts to expose crookedness, if any exists. Large sums of money are tied up in baseball parks and clubs. The owners are business men of sufficient acumen and experience to know that a suspicious public, refusing to patronize games because they believe the players are not honest, will spell ruin for their investments. Baseball has flourished because the public has patronized it. It would seem that the public will get a square deal from the club owners, for they will not wittingly jeopardize the one source of revenue which the game has.

Post Office Receipts . The receipts of the Richmond post office for the first 20 days of September, showing an increase of $9.00 over last year, should tickle the

pride of every, citizen. The showing Is much more gratifying when it is remembered that during this period last year the Richmond post office sold about $500 worth of stamps to other post offices of this district. This does not hold true this year. The report from the office of Postmaster Beck is an indication of a healthy business condition in Richmond. Postal receipts reflect the general business condition of a community. Their fluctuations, broadly speaking, tell if a city is making headway or dropping behind.

Armistice Day Celebration K Preparations for the observance of Armistice Day here promise a celebration on a scale com

prehensive enough to include all the factors of

our community life. The significance of the day suggests the pro

priety and fitness of a celebration that involves

the participation of all of us. The World war

involved the weal and woe of every civilized na

tion. The victory of the allied cause brought assurances of peace and the maintenance of free

government.

Free people in a free country, and especially

those living in a republic dedicated to the prin

ciples of justice and equality, should make this

day the occasion for a joyous expression of their confidence in representative government. If the Fourth of July means1 the birthday of the American republic, Armistice Day means the birthday of a new era of democratization and the creation of a more enduring love for republican government. America's participation in the war was general. While the boys served in the cantonments or overseas, their parents, brothers and sisters performed a patriotic . service in the home and factory. The industrial support which the country accorded the fighters was a contributing factor in the victory. The Central Labor Council originally suggested a city-wide celebration here to show the loyalty of the whole community. The celebration will tell of the participation of the whole city in the struggle that was consummated so gloriously when the armistice was signed.

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adama

v I, STROLLING WITH OUR YEARS Nothing la more beautiful than a well ordered life. There is nothing like becoming schooled to meet with an iron heart every sudden change of time or circumstance. I have in mind a friend of most brilliant and unusual talent and ability whom I have never known to be ready to meet what faced him. I have in mind another friend whom I have never known to meet anything no matter what or how difficult except with calm and courage. The well ordered men and women Etroll with their years as though for a pleasant walk. Dusk and darkness clasp spirits, as though they were but one affair excepting in meaning. It should be the same with your years. Youth shoula be an unconscious part of Age and Age a part of the best eternity possible. Stroll with your years. G'ide into your destiny like some floating swallow in its dream of Spring. Who is he who can guess ms end? Or who is he who is able to predict in advance each thrill as he journeys through some new meadow or across some stretch of wooded beauty? To stroll happily with our years, we must forget all about counting them ps they go by and only remember that we are aa important link in all Time.

cussion. It has a more or less personal tone which we do not fancy. A wise man once said: "If every man were a millionaire, a dollar wouldn't buy anything." According to that theory, we must be about 98 per cent millionaires now. Doesn't look as though anybody is going to make any money out of the theatrical business this season except those who are mixed up in it. STATISTICS ARE WONDERFUL. One statistician has it figured out that if this country had what it spent on the war and for fol de rol since it could do any one of the following things : Buy a fur coat for the Goddess of Liberty at present prices. Enforce prohibition strictly for two weeks. Keep congress going two weeks without adding to the national debt. Finance a ham and egg banquet for all presidential and vice presidential nominees.

"This was a railway upon which people traveled before the airplane be came cheaper."

Answers to Questions ! READER What do the terms "Brltr ish Lion" and "John Bull" Imply? The term "the British Lion" symbolizes the spirit of pugnacity of Great Britain, as opposed to "John Bull," which typifies the "substantiality, obstinacy and solidity of Britain, with all Its prejudices and national peculiarities. To arouse John Bull is to tread on his corns; to arouse the British Lion is to blow the war trumpet In his ears. Standard Dictionary of Facts. B. L. T. Who were the carpet-baggers? - The carpet-baggers were corrupt and often ignorant politicians, mostly from the North, who flocked to the South during the era of xeconBtrpction. After the close of the Civil War nearly all the whites in the Southern states were deprived by congress of the privilege of voting because they had taken part In the rebellion against the government. This

condition was taken" advantage of by unscrupulous politicians and adventur

ers frem the North, who took up a temporary residence in the Southern

states that they might control the negro vote and be elected to office. The name comes from the old-fashioned traveling bag, which was made of carpet with leather mountings. The carpet bag suggested the temporary character of the residence of these adventurers from the North. The state governments administered under those conditions were of the worst sort imaginable. Enormous taxes were levied and the money frequently was spent in extravagance and speculation, leaving the states burdened with debt The name is also sometimes applied to those politicians from the North who, before the war, took up their residence in the South with a view to representing those states in congress.

Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton

Dinner Stories

"HOW TO BE A WIDOW." "We have noticed with more or less, fhail wo say apprehension, a discussion in some of the magazines on the subject of "how to be a widow." The subject is one which seems to havo taken hold of the feminine mind, as it were. Some of them are already widows, while others have hopes. We would he disinclined to believe that any woman would enter into tho nciont and lior.rrable institution of marriage with widowhood in view, but tho cold manner in which the matter is discussed right out in the public prints leads us to a state of uncertainty, and we are sure many husbands, who chance to read the fairs-ex magazines when there, is nothing else in the house, share our nervous feeling. Tho husband who has read one of these articles is apt to glance at his coffee apprehensively, and then decide that he does not feel like a cup of coffee that morning. Or he may keep his razor downtown or quietly drop the family revolver into the garbage can. Of course the articles are couched in ladylike language, but when a man reads the headings in staring type, "How to Re a Widow," he begins to imagine things. When he sees his wife poring over this very article he is more than apt to rush out and buy her a new Hudson seal coat or a mahogany teawagon and try to placate her even though he does not know just why ehe should want to become a widow. Thoughts of their past lives come over these men and they begin to wonder just what the wife has found out. It is only fair to state that there is usually something to find cut The articles 'do not go into grewsome details and toil the women exactly how to be widows. There are many ways. In fact it is one of the oldest arts in existence. One can bo a widow to easily. However-, we do not favor the dis

MOTHER (proudly): "And so you got to the head of the spelling class today?' Little son: "Yes, mother, the whole class missed spellin a word 'cept me!" "And you didn't?" "No mother. There was only one way left to spell it." Slowly and cautiously the youth followed his father through a gateway which served as an entrance to a hu&e building. On entering, his eye caugh,t an immense glass roof which extended

across the building. Save for the twit

tering of birds, who apparently had nested in the roof, all was quiet. Half buried in the ground, were long, motionless objects, linked to

gether with iron chains. The whole surroundings mystified him. He could not compare it with a monastery or ancient theatre, or even an arena where glaidatois fought. Whatever was this strange but formidable construction? The youth turned to his father and appealed to him for enlightenment. Looking down upon the boy, the parent smiled rather sadly, and said:

Release for 1Vbmen who Suffer The multitude of American women who suffer terribly day after day and year after year from ills peculiar to their sex is almostbeyond belief, yet there is hardly a town or hamlet in the United States wherein some woman, and often many, dc not reside who have been restored to health from someof'the worst forms of female ills,and oftenavoided operations by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

These Two Women Tell of Their Experience.

Carrollton, Ky. "I suffered almost

two years with female weakness. I could not walk any distance, ride or take any exercise at all without resting. If I swept the floor or did any kindiof work it would bring my sickness on I was weak and languid, had no energy, and life was a misery to me. I was under the care of a good physician for several months and tried other remedies. I had read of Lydia E. Pinkham's "Vegetable Compound and decided to try it. After taking twelve bottles I found myself much improved and I took six more. I have never had any more trouble in that respect since. I have done all kinds of work and at present am an attendant at a State Hospital and am feeling fine. I shall always recommend your vege table Compound.'' Lillian Thabp, 824 South 6th Street, Carrollton, Ky.

Onalaska, Wis. "Every month I

had such pains in my back and lower fart of stomach I could not lie in bed. suffered so it seemed as though I would die, and I was not regularither. I suffered for a year and was unfit to do my housework, could only wash dishes once in a while. I read an advertisement of what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had done for other women and decided to -try it It surely did wonders for me. I have no pains now and can lo my own housework without any trouble at all. I ,-wtII always praise your medicine as I'do not believe there is a doctor that can do as much good for female weakness as can Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and you may use these facts as a testimonial." Mrs. Lester E. Wabner, R. 1, Box 69, Onalaska, Wis.
