FOOTBALL BEGINS THIS WEEK.
The. Arrival of ' September Always
Sends he Blood Surging ' Through
tha Athlete's Veins. 's
The football season for. 114 will be
formally ushered in this. week, when
candidates f or 'many - of the . college
' elevens will report for early practice.
Aspirants for places on the Muhlen
berg team are expected to report to
Coach 'MaC&a' today 'arid'"Willie Crow
ell's men at OLafayette will, get1 ac-
ouainted-.with their new coach at'Del
aware Water Gap on Thursday. ' Ben
Clime, Swartmore's football captain,
will return from Maine in a few 'days
and will Issue the first call for- candi
dates before the end of the week. Penn.,
Cornell, Yale, Harvard and Princeton
"-will be gin after Labor Day and. before
.' the end of next week the plunk of the
football against new hoes, the shouts
of the coaches and. lhe..ia.nUm? of the
candidates should be heard on nearly
' every griJiron in the east. -.5
facing a cliurt .'season., with the same
number oi' uig feauies .crowded in a
smaller spac ,iA-.uie, it is essential
that the cvliise fctt'iiuas Vuch pre
liminary work -s possible before the
scheduled contests: begin. This ia es
pecially true regarding the big teams,
for sometimes the yearly "practice'
'games wltn smaller colleges result, in
sad surprises. In -modern football all
teams are nearly . equal in the . early
art of the season, and many close
Ssores are registered. Urslnus beat
Penn. on Franklin field- a few years
ago. Yale,. . Harvard and Princeton
have had narrow escapes, v and the
coaches are beginning to realize that
it is a wise plan to have their men in
fairly good shape before the initial
lipe-up. - ,
Fortunately there are ; few changes
in the rules this year and the men
will not be obliged to study the rule
book every chance they get "to find
out how .they should act on , certain
ocasions. Outside of eliminating a
tew rough spots the playing code is
the same as last year. Candidates
will- be instructed to "play bard, but
caref ully." f or the rule makers lhave
frowned upon the practice of bumping
the punter or running into a man
after he has made a forward pass.
These changes should help the game
considerably, for under last year's
rules neither team had much protec
tion, and it was left to the discrim
ination of the officials as to whether
any rough work had been done. Other
minor changes will do away with un
necessary delays and Jseep the game
moving from the start. , ,
Division of Labor. .
While it takes 40 persons to make
a washboard, 120 to. make a shoe,
somewhere between fifty and sixty to
construct a corset, a score or more to
manufacture a single pair of overalls,
and equal numbers to produce other
simple articles in daily use, the task
of proportioning to the worker a' fair
wage for bis or her exertions is not
so simple a matter as some -would
have us believe. But a fair division
would be a much, easier problem -to
solve were each worker placed on an
equality in bargaining.

A GREAT YOUNG PUAYEp.
John - McGraw Landed a Prize When
He Got George Burns for S4,000.
"He does everything so easily and
quietry that it will be some time be
fore the fans realize that they have
one of the greatest young players in
the worid in their midst," said "Char
lie" Carr, manager of the Utica team
of the New York State League, when
he sold George Bums to the Giants
for $4,000 late- in the season of 1911.
The prophetic part of the veteran first
baseman and manager's eulogy ' has
been fulfilled and whether the Giants
establish a new record in baseball by
winning a fourth straight pennant.
Burns' part in the spectacular nght
of 1914 -will not be forgotten.
The newest batch of averages show
the twenty-three-year-old outfielder to
be leading the-league in stolen bases
with forty-one pilfers in 104 games.
Burns is tied with a team mate, "Bob"
Bescher. and "Jake" Daubert, of . the
Dodgers, for- run making honors.
Burns, up to Thursday, had crossea
the" home ' plate' seventy times. "Silent
George'' leads the Giant .regulars in
batting, with an average oi .sxs, -c.a-die"

From New Haven the roads are very

The best road from Bridgeport to

Dick" Rudolph "Bill James and
Leftv" Tvler. might also be taken
into consideration in the Boston club's
advance, but none' has done as much
for a National League team as Burns
for the drooping Giants this season: .
Burns is a cigarmaker ny traae, dui
he was so active as- a ball player that
he showed most of his speed on tne
diamond in' his home . town of St
Johnsonville. ' He played with townd
teams as catcher, but when he got his
engagement with Utica his fleetness
was utilized in fly chasing. Occasion
ally Burns tried lnflelding, but on the
advice of "Charlie" Carr .he special
ized as an outfielder. His advance
was so rapid that when John Mc
Mahoon an old Oriole pitcher and team
mate of John McGraw, who was scout
ing for. the Giants, first saw the young
Fter Rction he was so startled by
the display that he thought it must
be an accidental snow -or. -all - arouna
ability.' The scout followed. Burns for
two weeks without being recognized
by the young player or his manager
and Burns looked better 'every -aay.
John McGraw realized that a prize
had come to him and . following sys-
tern closely he did not put Burns into
a regular's berth until George had ab
sorbed heaps of big league baseball as
a watcher from the bench and an oc
casional filler-ln i during . 1912. Last
season Burns was displayed regularly
in the sun field and he was advancing
all the time. Being. . unable to bat
solidly during the world series did not
upset the youngster-: He showed rare
qualities of crameness during tne Lcto
ber classic and last spring -was ready
to take up work in the McGraw school
at precisely the same point where he
left off in 1913. -
To-day Burns is a finished ball play
er, with one of the most brilliant
careers a youngster ever faced vjust
before, him. He is a silent star ana
the smoothness of his defensive skill
covers up many plays that would be
rated "features- ll directed Dy an oui
filder of anything but positive perfec
tion in timing a fly ball. Burns has
a wonderful pair of hands and a
throwing arm of such power that Na
tional League batsmen have long since
learned to run the bases gingerly on
hits into the left section when Burns
is "out there."
A colony in the left field bleachers
is now known as "Burnsville." Rooters
ence gathered there to pay homage to
"Eddie" Burke, and "Burkeville" be
came famous in fandom because Burke
encouraged the general idea. Without
art appealing speech or gesture Burns
gradually wins admirers, and the si
lent system he has established is slow
but certain in bringing recognition to
the "one Giant who stands out" by
playing championship ball at all times.

estimate on the intelligence of the-nation's
ftnanciaMeaders to say that they
would continue to extend their vehicle

comprehensive tests and complete
comparisons of figures that it was a
profitable service. - . - -
It is a fallacy of many business men
that the. rparticular enterprise pre
sents points of difficulty that prevent a
truck from being applicable. In the
great range of gasoline, steam and
electric vehicles, in the variation of
size and type, in the ability to supply
a special body for almost any kind of
service, is likely to be found a solu
tion for almost any problem of deliv
ery. ' " .'.!.-.
Progressive business practice has in
dorsed -the truck. Its makers have
achieved stability and consistent per
formance. The element of risk is there
fore eliminated. The merchant who
decides to install a truck -makes no
radical move. He is simply getting in
line with progress.
Tire prices are going up. Car own
ers are facing an increase in price of
automobile tires ranging from 10 to 25
per- cent., with - the prospect of still
higher prices, and perhaps no limit
should the importation of crude rubber
continue to be held up through lack of
shipping facilities.
From South America we obtain some
crude rubber of excellent quality. This
comes from Brazil principally.
It is unwise to purchase tires ordi
narily in advance of one's requirement,
but at the present time it would ap
pear to be economical to have on hand
enough shoes to cover a period of, say.
six months. There is some likelihood
of the resumption of crud rubber-ship
ping after that time. Then, too, . the
cruae ruDDer crop or souui America
may be available, although not in very
great quanUty." Due to the face that
several tire makers about one year
ago were caught with a large stock of
cruae wnen prices were cut, tney nave
discontinued carrying such large
quantities on hand; consequently, they
have been caught napping, as most of
they have only enough for two months'

Tobacco That is Good
For Your Nerves
TUXEDO actually soothes the ' nerves. ' It
is just mild enough to keep your nervous
system in poise, your muscles in tone. Un
like other tobaccos, Tuxedo bums cool and
slow. There cannot be a speck of irritation
in a pound of Tuxedo.
Great singers smoke Tuxedo just before
a performance. Public speakers testily as
to ' its jsoothine influence. Doctors recom
mend it to smokers whose throats are delicate.
The Perfect
The secret of its superiority is the unique
"Tuxedo Process" by which all the unpleas
ant features are eliminated from' tobacco.
Another reason id that Tuxedo is made
from the best tobacco grown the choicest,
mildest, mellowest leaves of the highest
