The woods and for* beta of Dauphin county rang briskly fgjui daybreak this morning with the merry tattoo of shotgun and rifle, for It was opening of the season for , squirrel and rabbit. At closing time last evening 8,000 hunters had taken out licenses at the Courthouse, and the long line of men, women and children. Impatient and hungry for sport reminded one of the crowd waiting for a post-season ball game, ' A wild shriek went up from farm* i pre and land owners over this county, but particularly In Adams county, i who complained that marauderswere i destroying and tearing down no tices posted against trespassing, Ef* . forts were put forth to get the guilty > persona but this did not interfere' with the pursuit of rabbit and squir rel.

Fin ally. a caddie was asststed up and It was ascertained that the rubber core tvas not among the palm leaves, but had fallen Into the hollow trunk. What was to he done? The player's opponent claimed that the ball was out of bounds, but this was disputed, as the tree was distinctly In bounds. Another claimed that it was a lost ball* biit as every one knew where It was, it was not lost, only It could not be reached. "No rule could be found to govern the case, and the last I heard they were still chewing the rag f rr jt. Perhaps they pre val' d upon the management to cut the tree down. In any event, it was creating a very warm ar gument on a very hot day." From the London Hunt and comes a story of a was playing the seventh -hole.

Thinking his He warranted the stroke, he played it with a spoon and struck the ball a violent blow with the toe of the club, with the result that it shot into the long grass and was lost to view. The trio searched for it dili gently without success. At length one ( of them exclaimed: "Hello, here's a dead toad!" Lifting the toad, it was discovered that the creature had just been killed and. moreover, that the missing ball, in a gory condition, was embedded in its body. It was of course agreed by all hands that the ball must be played from its present He—in other words, that the toad must be played. A member of the club, on after ward being told the story, re marked that it certainly was a "bad lie." and another observed that it seemed to him to be just one further illustration of the dangers of a badly "toad" ball.

By JOHNNY EVERS (There Is little room for dis pute when Johnny Evers, of the famous "Tinker, to Evers, to Chance" oombinatlon, Is called the best second baseman baseball ever produced. After leaving the Chicago Cubs he went to Boston and was Cap tain of the Braves when they won the World Series in 1916.) PARIS (By MailV—One point which the United War Work Campaign ought to make clear to the American public is that when the American soldier isn't busy fighting he is putting energy and "pep" Into his recreation pursuits. He's a hard fighter in battle and a strenuous contestant in games. He's hard to beat in either. Aptly illustrating this, is the story told of a party of "Yanks" who, relieved from the fighting lines, were enroute to a village where they could rest a few days. While waiting for motor trucks, they started a game of baseball, getting thp equipment from a con venient Knights of Columbus build ing. In a few minutes three thou sand young Americans were excited spectators. With them the recent battle with the Hun was history. They had licked him and that was enough. Maintains Morals This is what helps to maintain morale, and the need for baseball ! and other forms of recreation is clearly recognized by the K. of C. in their war relief activities. That is why the Knights have sent over seas so many men notable in the athletic world. They are needed to direct sports. I modestly ask to be listed as a "notable" because of my long con signs the counter register for each purchase.

When I came overseas I expect ed. of course, to find that athletic entertainments were popular, but I confess I am amazed at the extent of this popularity. Every spare minute they have, if the weather permits, they are engaged In some outdoor sport. Baseball, wrestling, boxing, tennis, running, jumping walking, medicine ball and even ping pong claim their attention, and the result is that there is not as fine a body of athletes in the world as Uncle Sam's warriors.

One ? f lhe P rim ® results of this war, is likely to be the encouragement of I the spirit of whoesome play. Acute I, observers in this wur testify that one I 5a V s I wr , on K with the Germans was their lack of healthy outdoor sports, ' such as Kngland and America indulge ! in. They did not know the meaning of good sport;" they were never! taught the open, fair-handed points of rootball, baseball and other pastimes. [ fc.ns.land is even ahead of America in 1 i determination to have outdoor life. Gondon business practically closes down at 3 p. m„ and every one who possibly can gets to the moors, the I river or somewhere outdoors for a I breath of fresh air and exercise. This world-wide necessity is attracting at-1 tention of papers like the Outlook, which points out: "As the war goes on the business ' . ' s increasing instead of di- ! mlnishlng". Thin is iu* it should be. j ! for quite apart from the pleasure and! profit of play at any time, many ob- ' servers are beginning to ask what re- ! ; duetion in the cost of training soldiers j to tight there would have been hud I they been tlrst trained to play in years i 1 past. Had such been the case, a "large I number of those who volunteered for 1 military service and were refused j might have possessed physical quail- i flcations closer to the standard of'' their patriotism. That our government l realizes the importance of orgnnized : I recreation is shown by the fact that 11 the War and Navy Department Com- X V M g /M you h JTaveT ha A^d fp SPiii-liiiinmX Kyi Q what a delicious, savory | Si 1G A R | | | Save f yi 1 *. rorn I missions on Training Camp Activities uve taken over bodily the Playground and Recreation Association of America to carry on its beneflcient work for our new armies under th® name War tamp Community Service. "Recent figures compiled by this association show the extension of play into the winter months, and the' in creasing demand for lighted play grounds for evening use. Some t>oo playgrounds are now opened and lighted throughout the evening. It is impossible to conceive of the number of unhealthy and unwholesome places from which children are thus saved. "The number of schools established to traip playground leaders is increas ing, and the standard of those work ers lias been raised by civil service ex aminations. About 9.000 men and wo men are now employed to direct play at recreation centers. About 760,000 boys and girls daily swarm In the play centers, and some 700 schoplbuild- Ings are used for play after school hours. One of the consequences of this is the birth of a kindlier feeling for the school buildings Jn the heart of the pupil who may have retarded that building as a place of toWire! ' "Throughout the country, we read, there are some 200 bathing beaches, 400 public baths and 300 swimming pools; and during 1917 some 4,000 playgrounds and neighborhood recrea tion centers were maintained. A rec-1 reation center often means an open place where a brass band plays, and it sometimes means an indoor place where one may tuke a book from the library shelf; we learn that in 1917 I about fifty cities 'specialized' in brass bauds, sixty in orchestras, nnd 200 in community sings; that there were debating clubs.in forty cities and free libraries in many more. "While it is good to road that there has been an increase of 18 per cent, in the numhSr of playgrounds operat ed and of 60 per cent, in the dollars spent, we know that the present crowded play nnd recreation centers serve only one in fifty of those chil dren who should be served. We also know that those who should be served —indeed, those who are being served are not only babies and boys and girls nnd young people, but some men and women who are never going to grow old. "As one sees the happy youth, there fore. front the poorer tenement dis tricts of our cities in the municipal and other playgrounds, breathing bet ter air. playing games, singing songs, crowding the swings, seesaws nnd coasting slides, a sense of gratitude comes for their escape from unsani tary living conditions. from the danger of disease, and the danger of injury from street accidents. "But there is a future good to reckon with, for play makes for bet ter and cleaner citizenship later." RHINE PROVINCES IN PANIC Amsterdam, Nov.
