UNCLE SAM AS A TRADE PROMOTER Waldon Fawcett in World Outlook More than three hundred "trade mis sionaries," stationed in all the civilized countries of the world, are energeti cally preaching the gospel of American trade-expansion. In all cases, the aim and object is to discover new markets for American goods and to increase the consumption of Yankee wares where they are known. Our national capital has become a great clearing house for trade informa tion from all quarters of the globe. From this "nerve center" timely in formation of new trade opportunities goes out daily by telegraph and by mail to tens of thousands of manufac turers. The dissemination of this business gossip is no longer conducted on a happy-go-lucky plan. Foreign govern ments have agents in the United States who promptly cable any announce ments from Washington that might be turned to account by the manufac turers of their respective countries, but when it is whispered in Uncle Sam's ear that an important contract is to be let-in Rio or Riga, that a new railroad is to be built in China or that there is a sudden demand for steel office furni ture in Madagascar, that news is not shouted from the housetops but is quietly communicated by mail or wire to the American manufacturers who would be likely to be concerned and who have agreed to hold the informa tion in confidence. The Bureau of i Commerce has a card index list of 20,000 manufacturers who have asked for sucli confidential information as may touch their interests. Wai.don Fawcett in World Outlook. PRAYIXG BY ELECTRICITY G. T. Hadley in World Outlook Simla, the summer capital of India, is rich in scenery, cooling breezes and little mountain streams which issue direct from the snow fields above. When some practical, hard-headed, un sentimental engineers came along and proposed to harness those streams up lo dynamos to supply light and power for Simla, they met with unexpected opposition. For centuries the Buddists had mum bled their perpetual prayers until they grew weary and then some ingenious votary received a revelation that pray ers written on slips of paper and tacked to a continually revolving wheel were sufficienly efficacious. The power for these prayer mills had been ob j tained from'water wheels in these same mountain streams. Now some godless American wanted to divert that water power for commercial purposes. Simla preferred her praying mills to electric light. Then the government stepped in. the wise, tactful British Government which has learned by long and costly experi ence how to deal with the old customs and prejudjees. Yes. the power com panies might proceed. They must agree, however, to supply all the prayer j wheels with electric motors. Simla | now prays by electric power.—G. T. Hadlly iu World Outlook. CENTRAL TOSSERS MEET LANCASTER Added Attraction To-morrow Night Will Be "Co-eds" in Opening Game Another scholastic basketball treat is pronjised for to-morrow night when Central high will play Lancaster high; and Central "Co-eds," will meet the girls from l.ebanon Valley College. Both games will be played on Chestnut Street Auditorium floor, and will be followed with a dance. Local tossers are anxious to move up In the Central Pennsylvania Inter scholastic race. A victory for Central to-night will mean a tie-up for third place. Reading now has that position. It is said that Rote will not be in the game. He may not play again on the Central team this season. The girls will open their season. Lebanon Valley girls have been in the game for several weeks and have scored two victories. Under Coach Mc- Cord the local quintet of "co-eds" have been doing good work at practice and promise a fast game to-morrow night. The first game will start promptly at 8 o'clock. Braves' Deal Satisfactory to National League Head Special to the Telegraph i Philadelphia, Jan. 13. President j Toner of the National Baseball League last night said he was greatly pleased that Percy Ilaughton had become asso ciated with the league through the purchase of the Boston club. "He has had so much experience in athletics, both as a player and coach and has had such a remarkable rec ord that he should be a good leader in baseball," Mr. Tener said. "So long as the Boston club was on the market, I am highly pleased it has passed into the hands of Mr. Haughton and his associates. "In selling the Braves Mr. Gaffney carried out a promise he made when he acquired the club. He said at that time that he would take tallender and make it a winner and would then be ready to step out. He has done so and is now keeping his promise. "While I regret the passing of Mr. Gaffney, 1 must say the addition of Mr. Haughton will further strengthen our organization."

Yet Joe, in the three games lie's played this season, has averaged 15',4 baskets a game. B. McQueen, captain and center, ha* a cataract on lils right eye and his left eye is normal.
