TREES ARRIVE
Message of Comfort For the
Little Ones in Spite of War.
“What the Soldier Needs in
the Field.”
Berlin, Nov. 25—(Correspondence of
the Associated Press). —The stores of
Ihr city already have begun *o an
nounce a message of comfort for the
little people. This message Is that,
despite war, embargo and hard times,
Kama Claus is expected to appear at
the usual time. He may not bring
quite so much in his pack as in past
years but he will hring something and
there is ground for rejoicing in that,
for thousands of persons had feared
that Christmas this year would mean
nothing more than two figures on the
calendar.
The Christmas trade has begun
somewhat earlier than usual, since so
many persons know that the fepl
post, with the bent intentions in the
world will need all the time It can get
to bring gifts to the soldiers In the
field.
War Times Feature.
A war time feature is the opening
of an elaborate exposition of "what
the soldier needs In the. field.” There
Is a. surprising range of things that
must have been manufactured since
th" war began, from condensed foods
arid drinks to elaborate sleeping sacks
and including literally hundreds of in
genious devices to make the field duty
of the soldier more comfortable.
The large stores show regular ante-
Phrlstmas pictures in all departments.
Perhaps the only difference is in the
stocks of military toys which are
rather larger than usual. Regiment
upon regiment of toy soldiers appear,
all uniformed in the new “field gray"
and drums, guns, swords, tiny uni
forms, cuirasses and soldier caps, al
ways prominent in the toy depart
ments, lake up more spare than In
peace times. A large proportion of
the books deal also with the war. Bus
iness too Is good according to the mer
chants.
Christmas Trees.
Carloads of Christmas trees have
been arriving for several days.
In one respect it will bo more nearly
like the old fashioned Christmas than
fur many years. There will be more
home marie toys, garments, etc., and
domestic fruits will take the place of
various tropical products which either
are very- dear or not to be had at all.
Provision Is being made for the
thousands of homes desolated by the
war Relief associations will see that
the war orphans are not forgotten, ft
will, however, he a sad Christmas in
Germany.

Mississippi;
First Baseman, Shortstop and
Outfielder Recommended By
Man Who “Found” Clark For
Augusta.
Meridian, Mias. —Although prospects
for league baseball in Meridian again
are practically nil, no re-organization 1
of the defunct Cotton States League]
being possible at this time, It does not
keep the fans from watching the pre- ]
liminaries being made for next year
in other leagues and furnishing good
material, which may later develop Into
something worth while in the basebah
world.
Among these events has been the
signing of "Bunch" O’Neill as tirst
baseman; "Red" Perry as shortstop
and bred Dunning, as an outfielder
by the Augusta, Ga., club in the South
Atlantic League. All three are home
products and it is believed that they
will make good with the club, who
secured their services on recommend
ations of .1 .1 Smith, Jr.
If Mr. Smith’s predictions tor the
three turn out as well as they did for
Danny Clark, who made good with
Birmingham in the Southern league
with a rush and who was farmed to
Augusta, has created a good opinion of
his recommendations in the Augusta
camp. The three boys will not leave
for Augusta before the training sea
son.
Danny Clark, who clouted the ball
with a good hard wallop all last sea
son was heralded as one of the com
ing second basemen of the Southern
League and came near getting a regu
lar position on the Birmingham team;
had it not been tor his youth and in
experience. lie has Improved, how
ever, and when he trains with the Iron
Men during the coming season, it is
believed that some second sacker has
got to hustle to beat him to the regu
lar job.
The above communication shows
that Manager Dudley is on the job and
during these rather bleak December
da*K is preparing for the days to come
when he will need a bunch of good
men to fight for the championship of
1»1 r>. And as these men were recom
mended by the same man who “found '
Clark, it’s a dead certainty that the
three named above are going to be
valuable assets to the locals.
