HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT, FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 19, 1915.
"TINY TIM" OF BOY SCOUTS
Bom Organiser »n- Also Successful
Squab Baiter
Kansas City, Jlo., .March 19. —The
smallest Boy Scout in the world lives
at Blue Springs, Mo., just a little way
from Kansas City. His name is Arthur
Portw«od. He is exactly 29 inches
high and weighs 35 pounds.
Arthur is 14 years old and in the
sixtii grade in school. He is the Tiny
Tim of the Blue Springs Bov Scouts
and goes with them on all their hikes.
"Course, sometimes they carry iue,''
he explained gravely, "my legs arc so
short 1 can't keep up with them when
they go fast; -but they alwavs take me
with them, and I attend every mcet
'ng-7
His size docs not bother Arthur a
bit. He is not at all sensitive about
it. When a visitor entered the room
where he sat in a baby's rocking chair
by the tire Arthur immediately stood
up.
"I expect you want me to stand
up,'' he said sedaWlv, and rose from
the little chair. " Most folks want to
see how big 1 am when I stand up, you
see.''
Several years ago Arthur went into
the squab business. He has several
hundred pigeons in the yard behind his
house and tnkes all the care of them
himself. He sells his squabs to a res
taurant man in Kansas City at a good
price and every penny of the money
goes right into his bank account. He
likes the study of agriculture better
than any other school course and wants
to •be a farmer when he is old enough.
Arthur is a leader in boy society in
his neighborhood. He is a born organ
izer and can arrange entertainment and
trips for the Boy Scouts faster than the
other boys can carry them into execu
tion. He is exceptionally bright in his
school work.
FIND CURE FOR DEAD BEATS
New England Residents Card Indexed
As to Paying Proclivities
Boston, March 19. New England no
louger will be a profitable field for
"dead beats" when the commercial or
ganisations complete a work they al
ready have well in hand. The boards
of trade and chambers of commerce in
many cities ot the six States have quiet
ly worked up a system showing the fi
nancial status of hundreds of thou
sands of persons, classifying those who
pay, who get credit and negie.'t to pay.
The Boston bureau lias more than 100,-
000 names. Lynn's Chamber of Com
merce has 68.000, and in other cities
the bureaus hold name and address
cards in proportionate numbers.
These cards show whether ,lohn Doe
pay® his bills promptly, slowly, or not
at all, and keep track wherever he
moves. If he contracts bills at several
stores simultaneously he is caught at it.
The system tends correctly but simply
to classify every household head and in
dividual purchaser on credit in the six
States. The records are to be turned
over to all retail merchants identified
with the commercial organizations.

INTERNATIONAL TRUCKS
DISPLfIYEDAT BOTH SHOWSj
Company Has Independent Exhibit and
Wai Furnish Free Transportation
From Their Headquarters to Arena
and Kclker Street Hall
The International Motor Truck De
partment, now in its own new headquar
ters, 619 Walnut street, beg to an
nounce its independent exhibit and will
gladly furnish free transportation to
visitors from its headquarters to l>oth
automobile shows, from the 13th to the
20 th, inclusive.
C. J. Stevens, manager International
Motor Truck Department, announces
that for the benefit of International
truck owners it has established a com
plete service station, which will be at
the command of all International truck
owners, no matter how old their trucks
ina v be.
This supply house will carry an
abundant line of motor trucl's of the
popular sizes, also a complete line of
truck parts, thus saving valuable time
and extra expense to their hundreds of
patrons These vital features, together
with the reliability of the (Manufactur
ing Company and the Sales Agency
back of it, speak for the permanency
of the International 'Motor Truck De
partment.
Merchants can no more disregard the
advantages of the motor truck than
their daily paper.; and telephones. Busi
ness firms now recognize the fact that
new trade is necessary and horse and
wagon delivery will limit them to a re
stricted territory and volume.
The motor truck permits a large ex
pansion of trade, and 'he International
is*con«tantly making deliveries to pro
gressive firms who believe in trade ex
pansion.
The smaller firms formerly held fo
the idea that the motor truck was only
practical for the larger concerns, but
have now 'broadened their views, lost
that business timidity and are purchas
ing trucks as a matter of economy and
business expansion.
The many up-to-date features of the
new 19 K, models of International mo
tor tracks arboth interesting and pleas
ing to the many visitors and purchasers
now calling at the International Motor
Truck Department, 619 Walnut street,
Harrisburg, Pa. Adv.*

ISEWS OF THE SPO
FEDS AFTER MINOR ALLY
Trying to Induce Southern League to
Quit Organized Baseball
Browns Wells, Miss. March 19. —Al-
though he would not talk for publica
tion. it was learned authoritatively yes
terday that Dick Carroll, business man
ager of the Brookfeds, held a confer
ence Tuesday at the Hotel Urunewal i
in Xew Orleans with four Southern
League magnates in'regard to affiliation
of that league with the Federal organi
zation.
The informant is a man who was
present throughout the conference. He
declared that at the conclusion of the
conference the four club owners de
clared themselves in favor of the mer
ger and would make every effort to
bring another magnate into the fold to
make a majority of five, all that is
necessary to put the proposition
through to a successful conclusion.
Carroll would not diseuss his visit
other than to characterize it as a pleas
ure jaunt, but it is believed that he
arranged for a meeting of President
Gilm'ore and Robert B. Wud with the
Southern League magnates for some
time next week, as the Federal League
men are expected at this camp to-day
or to-morrow.
RUBE OLDRING ON THIRD

Baker's Placa
Jacksonville, Fla., Mach 19. —That
Connie Mack has finally given up hope
of "Home Run" Baker ever return
ing to the place made vacant at third
base on the Athletics when he announc
ed his retirement just before the team
started for the training camp, is evi
denced 'bv the permanent shift of Rube
Oldrimg t'rom the outfield to third base.
Oldring made his appearance at
third for the Athletics yesterday
against Chicago, and hail three chances
two put-outs and one assist, and hand
led all cleanly. At the bat he register
ed one hit out of four times up.
Rube is a good hitter, ie fast and
his fielding has always been of a hiigh
order. Ho has always been strong on
ground balls.
He who cannot forgive others breaks
the bridge over which he must pass him
self, for every man has need to be
forgiven.

CURTAIL SOUTHERN TRIP
Mack Says Too Much Time Is Spent on
Early Training
Jacksonville, d-'la., March 19. —
Connie Mack lias decided that much of
| the time spent 011 the training season
lis wasted. lie has, therefore, deter
| mined that next season he will not have
! his regulars report in Jacksonville be
| fore March 20, and that the pitchers
aud catchers will only be down a few
days prior to that date. "I think that
j we are far too early in beginning our
training this year," said Mack. "I
j cannot, see where we gain anything by
I beginning as soon as we did. All of
my men were in pretty good condition
when they came down this year.
"It isn't as it used to be, when a
lot of the men were far overweight and
had to train to get down. Now there
is scarcely a pound of superfluous fat
iu the squads. The players 1 have now
! do not, for the most part, need more
than a couple of weeks to get into
| shape, and 1 am going to try next year
j the shorter training season and see
■ how it works out."
This departure from the usual long
training season will indeed be a radical
move. But any one who has seen how
quickly the Athletics rounded intu form
this season will realize that too much
time is spent in getting them ready,
when a much shorter time would servo
the purpose as well.
