With the indictment of a group of taseball piayers charged with throwing games a year ago that' resulted in the | world's series being Wen otherwise than on merit, it is plain that there is CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING SEPT. 25th, 1920 10,944 HIGHHANDED. 1t is interesting to note the claim that is being made concerning the refusal President Wilson to carry out the structions of congress that he toing it in its entirety. he ‘appears to have vetoed just what pleased and done so after he proved it in toto. But how does his this matter compare with the course pursued relative to the budget bill. That which had been It was legislation that was need- it de- clared that most of it ought to become was a piece of legislation long and determined efforts made, ed.

Baseball is the sport that it is, be- cause the idea has always prevailed that it was on the level, that players iwere loyal te the organizatiens with which they were comnected and even though they had their ups and downs, their geod and bad days, they were not deliberately throwing the 'contests. From such evidence as has been pro- of|{duced and other that it is believed can be obtained it is evident, though the at- cused have not had an opportumily to be heard regarding the charges, that there has been sufficient wrang doing in connection with the games in ques- tion not only to warrant the indictments but to shake the confidence of those who have steadfastly belicved that baseball was a clean sport. When base- ball players are lined up with gamblers it can be appreciated that their morale has been seriously undermimed and that their loyalty to team mates managers, fans and those who back baseball be- cause it is above beard is des‘royed. The revelations that have been male indicate that there must be a thorough ith | housecleaning. If some of the best of | baseball players cannot be had without he|taking a chance that they will permit themselves to be corrupted by gamblers to|seeking to make a big haul then the game must get along without them.

Public Health Service B ] Physical Defects Among School Children Time and again careful investigations by competent ‘medical authorities have shown' that children lose a congiderable part of the educational advantages open to them because they suffer from uncor- rected physical defects sush as decayed “teeth, ;calarged tonisils and adenoids, malnutrition, defects of vision and the like. But great as is this loss of edu- cation, it is not nearly so serious to the child as is the after effect of such un- corrected physical defects on the cnild's physical development.

Whether it will do so is a question. There are those who maintain that no real en- couragement has been given to the con- struction of new homes, that no induce- ments have been offered to those who would have to invest new capital' to bring the needed relief and that houses will continue to be in just as great de- mand as ever. On the o6ther hand others see where some improvement is going to resuit. It i= generally admitted that help ‘has been given to the tenants, those now already housed but who had received notice that they must vacate at the conclusion of their lease. In behalf of such the leg- islature has said that they cannot be evicted and all that they need to do if they cannmot find a place to move is to hand the landlord the same rent they have been paying and stay until court sction directs otherwise, While the relief to the tenants was important it can be appreciated that the congestion and the inability to get ae- commodations cannot get the needed relief until there are more dwellings. In New Jersey inducements were offered to capital in the way of abating the taxes on construction within the next five vears, but in New York this was not done and yet New York hotels and oth- er property which have been used for housing humanity are being turned into business houses. This of course adds to the seriousness of the situation. There were those who favored the forcing of come to blows seems They are too closely allied and think too much of each other thing to be possible and such trouble as has been experienced seems te have been fostered through seviet influences.

Whether sugar will get down te the price at which it was selling during the war period before the gradusi drop ceases will be better indicated after the canning season begins to ease up. Just at the present ting much sugar is be- ing used in maki\: preserves and yet in spite of that renners are making re- duetions and large quantities are com- ing into the country. It is still some distance from the war time figure but with increased offerings of raw sugar and a slow demand for the product in anticipation of farther drops it is mot improbable that those who 4&re pre- dicting further declines know what they are talking about.

The straightness of line, a noteworthy feature oY the best models is ntuated cleverly, and the e collar of beaver, real beaver, adds a regal richness. On the pockets, toe, beaver is used most effectively. The price is $169.50. Another suit which will surely attract your faverable comment, is a Dryad blue creation of Veldyne, developed in long lines. The novel use of a locse panel back in the coat is very new, giving a most graceful line from shoulder to hem. The collar of Australian Opossum with its smoky silver tomes is very pleasing, well with the rich biue of the It will cost you but $97.50. A third suit is of Reindeer celored Suedine, and richly embroidered in the same color, the em- broidery heavily outlining the panaled lines of the back. The collar is of Nutria, and a broad band of that beautiful fur finishes the coat below the embroidery.
