The Philadelphia basketball five oi
the I'astcru League is gradually de
vcloplng n team that will be heard
from before the second bnlf of the race
is over. 'J lie Musical Minders may
not win nny pennant, although Man
nger Myers hns hopes of- his proteges
finishing better than they did In the
first bnlf.
The Phils nre represented by the
youngest aggregation playing big lcngue
ball, but they are snowing the other
tennis thnt it is possible to win games
with n crowd of youngsters who nre
pulling together nnd playing together
rather thnn five stars in the game for
whnt they get out of it.
There is more enthusiasm nt the home
games of the Phils thnn some other
clubs because the line-up. excepting
"Skeeter"' Wright, nto home boys nnd
each has his quota of followers out
there to root for his success nnd the
team as n whole. Manager Mjers hnH
much to look forwnrd to. Next senson
when other niunngerH will be scurrying
for talent he canslt back and know
that he has n line-up ready to start.
This evening nt Muslcnl Fund Hull,
Kighth and Locust, streets, the Phillies
entertain Trenton. Less thnn n month
ago the Potters paid n vMt here and
went awav stripped of the first-half
pennant title when the Phils hnnde.1
them ii severe "trouncing. Trenton Js
after revenge and wnnts to stay in the
running by turning the tables In this
gume.
Manager Myers will start with
"Ilabe" KloU. nt center; Tasson nnd
Miller, forwards; Cross and Wright,
cunrds. Klot. hns been unusually suc
cessful ngalnst Tonic and invariably
bus otitjiimpcd his opponent, und also
outscored him.
The visitors will have their best team
In nction nnd It is likely that Ilernle
Dunn, who hns been ninkin-f scoring
records, will be in the buck field with
"Ted" Kenrns. The Phils nie confident
of success, ns they have n club that is
hard to beat on any floor, but uho
show exceptionally well on the home
floor.
The Manufacturers' League nlso an
nounces a shift, in their playing dntcs
next week. The regular schedule will be
observed on Tuesday, but the Thursday
games hno been postponed until the
close of the senson. The Hell Telephone
Lcngue will use Yonah I lull on Thurs
day, ns they hne given the Manufac

Friday to conduct the first annua! dance
which promises to be a great success.

Women as Jurors
Toth Editor nt the Evenlia PuMte t.'do'rl
Sir Judge Tally la quoted as jwylnir Jbal
"woman la not ntted by naturn lo bo n
Juror," Tho main reason. In the Judge's
opinion, why woman should not nerve na ft
luror la that "she approaches the problems
of life with her heart and not with her
head" like mnn.
The Judare, however sincere In hla convic
tions. Is altogether wron In hl Judgment
regarding vomin'a "u,," Woman probablv
Is what the Judge flatteringly proclaims hr
to be, In hl ueneral xlng, "a creature of In
finite variety, nn Inspiration." etc. And It
Is truo that "the maternity ward Is her
(lod-di-algned plnr" for a period. Hut It
Is rot her Ood-deslgned prison, thank Ood!
and the Judge should not nlm to shut her up
In It. If he haa wisdom sufficient to fill tho
cfflee of Judjre, he cught lo be wliw enough
to understand that morn than anything else,
"motherhood" nullifies woman to bo a Juror.

Woman Is the symbol of love: man the

Favors a Bonus
To the Editor of the Evening 1'uMla Ledger:
Sir t hops you will print this comment
regarding the speech that Prof.. William
S. Myera, of Princeton. University, recently
made about the ex-service man, saying,
"If a country cannot call on Ita men to
light for and protect It In time of need
without having their patriotism materlal
lied afterwards. Clod help that country."
That professor must think the boa want
tha whole country. He la greatly mistaken
about It. Kvory other nation haa dono as
much aa possible for their cx-servlco men
In helping them and their families that
were badly In need.
There are plenty of bora who ever since
their discharge havo been unable to get
work In the same Job as before they went
away to fight for this country. If ho ia
not capable to huld his new Job he la rut
out and n slacker Is given a chance In hla
Place. So tho slacker will have n chance
to make moro money, aa usual than tho
ex-service man,
When tho wjr w.ib going on It wag not
considered that a soldier was getting only
a dollar a day, and others that were out
of the service were reaping a fortune In
high wages. They wl'l say tho living was
also high. Th.it might have been the
fact, but how about tho family that had
their aon or sons In the army? Were
they not paying for food at high prices
also? And not having a heavy Income, aa
the others d:d, who never were In the serv
ice. Then, when the soldier was dla
charged with whnc little he ro-elved he had
to start all over again. Many have not
been able to help themselves to make a
living. So I ray. If the nation will give
a bonus to tho ex-service man It will be
a great help, especially to some of the
families which are badly In ned In these
tnlng days. LOUIS COTA.

Ita amlloa and sighs and tears.
The shores of the lea were lined with thoso
I had known when life was new,
But through all the chansea thot tlma had

Was ono' fure. with unaltered friendship
fraught,
For th I was on was the sea of

And tho friend of my dream was you.

Criticizes "Militant Christian"
To the Editor of the Evening Publir Ledger:
Sir For ecntlsm and sheer Impudence I
never saw anything In print to eo.ua! the
letter published rectnUy slcncd "Militant
Christian."
Is tin, writer iv lonir-hnlred man or a
short-haired woman? Who else besides this
fanatical person thinks the antl-salnoi aa
crefratlon la "moro powerful than the bov
ernment" or ,"la the jtoveniment"? And
he has the effrontery to designate as "the
rabble" nil those who do not fall In with hie
hard-and-narrow brand of Ideas. People of
this sort don't seem to realise that they
themselves are Uie worst cnemlos of Chris
tianity. "Militant Christian" was bom some cen
turies too late. Ife should have lived when
tonBue-borlnar, burning and other horrors
were eotnmlttcd In the name of the sentle
Nazarcne.
May u Just Providence save our beloved
country from till sinctlled blathrskttos
who are so narrow they can look through a
kcjholo with both ejea at once!

Our Alert Detective Force
To the Editor of the Evening Public Ledger:
Blr I am a little b't surprised at a let-
er I read In your People's Forum In which
-ur detective force was ridiculed because
iicy wero unama to aetecv" and our police
force because they were unable to protect.
I feel the writer wns entirely too severe ori
both of these publle guardians. As an ex
ample, look at the wonderful work they have
Just done In arprehendlna- a man and woman
who are suspected of belne Implicated In the
Pelrce murder.
Within four days after this murder they
ever able, throujh their alertness of
course, aeslsted In every possible) way ly
the suspects themselves of Undine; th's
man and woman In a Philadelphia Jail With
Treat shrewdness the detectives learned the
character of tho car In which tho pair had
fled. Tills was n master stroke of detec
tion, even thoush It was probably the only
car In Philadelphia of Its tpo and color.
Hut that should not detract from their
credit.
It was the detectives of this city who
spread tho warnlnsr country-wide thai a man
and woman were fleeing- In a motorcar with
n bright red body and nhie to make seventy
miles an hour from this city, nnd thej
should wnteh for th car. U was this of
ficlal warning that helped the gurngo man
hi Wheeling. W. Va , In his Identification nf
the car and locating the nuepcts. Isn't this
to be pUerd to the credit of our detective
force-
And yet your correspondent says they
never catoh any murderers and very few
hold-up nvn Didn't they catrh another
suspect, Urines, and with virtually, nothlnu
upon which to work'f I believe the Philadel
phia detective force Is as clever as any
similar body In the country, und I think It
