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.

CENTRAL TOSSERS

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

followed with a dance.
Local tossers are anxious to move

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."

that Superintendent Forrer realizes the

bus lias a basketball team that literal

Fans who have seen the boys In ac

squad of sightless lads wear the colors
of the Ohio State School for the Blind.
There's Joe Arndt, of Lima, Ohio,
whirlwind forward; Joe's left eye has
only 3-200 normal vision. 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. But he has a
weird uncanny sense of where the bas
ket is and sticks 'em in the pan, one,
two, three.
There isn't a man on the squad who
can read even poster print. Total
blind students are the team's backers.
They can tell when a basket Is made
and tlieir rooting 1 would sliame a col

squad has secured 206 points thus for
