More than 2.000,000 people are fac ing starvation In Shantung Province, having been rendered destitute by the floods caused by the Iellow river, ac cording to reports of the Shantung International Famine Relief commit tee, just issued. The Shantung farmer and the people of this province are simple minded, peace loving, unprogressive people Is worrying more about driv ing the wolf from his door and locat ing his next meal than he is the Shantung Question." Last yeur the terrible famine in China was caused by drought this year by floods.

During the heavy fall rains the Yellow river broke through the dykes which are in very bad condition, In several places: the water In the tall that reached above the water. Now Shantung Is covered with snow and Ice, and the stretches of water which did not recede ate frozen and the spring crops cannot lie planted. According to reports of the Shan tung International 1-limine Relief committee. Shantung Is facing one of the worst famines In hor history this spring. Reports show tlmt Beven million people have noen affected by the floods and that approximately two million will be In dire need In the spring. Last year three million dollars local currency was spent In famine relief work. Two-thirds of this came from the Amerlian Red Cross and the famine drive launched In America. Relief Fund Small. This year the committee, which Is composed of consular officials, busi ness men and missionaries, has only $450,000 for relief work, but addi tional funds will be secured from the Maritime Customs surtax and a fam ine drive to he launched In China shortly.

Some of them even have horse sense. Yet the par allel never Is carried to a physical equation. You can drive a horse all day and the average man about 9 4-5 seconds, all thcee watches ogreelng. That Is one reason the writer Is disposed to fear the worst In the case to Ty Cobb, a gentleman of dy namic impulses that prompt him to wax caustic when any of his ball players decide that enough Is suffi cient and attempt to ease aff the pace a bit. Cobb Is driving his Tigers at Au gusta as ball clubs Have seldom beon driven before. Ills tongue might be known lender the name of Simon Le gree, Jr. He certainly wields It for all the world like a verbal whip. Wisdom Awaits Trial. The wisdom or fallacy of his poli cy remains to be seen. If some one lopes around the bases In batting practice Cobb Immediately lifts his head and gives tongue to a wail of protest. "Hustle It!' seems to be his idea' of speaking as one man to another. . It Is our Impression that It Is very bad business to race men around the bases In a minor league park In the early spring. With both ground and muscles soft, a ball player can con tract Charley horse with the facility of a irani bier contracting four aces at the essential moment. We walched the Infield work out. and here again was an utter ab sence of conservative movement. No Infield warm-up before a world's I series game ever witnessed more her i tic, wild-eyed dash and hustle, with the sound of Cobb's approving voice sending them on for more. fbh I.Ikes Actlmi. That kind of thing Is gravy for his ! filet of sole. rnllke-most southern i ers. Cobb Is the soul of action and I expects to see It In others. Hut what he seems to forget Is that h could i do a great many things that other players could not. He ran still do some of (hem for the simple reason ' that, old as he Is in baseball years, Ms great natural talent for ball play ing allows him to carry on. ' But why all the eicltement st this early stage of the proceedings? It Is all very well to bring your team bark north with the Idea that It is going to hustle from first to last through the league race. Hustling In the south gets you nothing but pains, sches and a definite distaste for the 1 tank at hand. All of which brings us to the point viz . to wit and as follows: i March pepper often makes for mid summer vlnegwr. tat you want as you want it, and sen ice with a smile.

The allowance also Is made on the basis of ten concerts to be given dur ing the summer months, following the same plan as was adopted last jear when the band gave some very Interesting entertainments which were greatly appreciated by the peo ple of the community. This money will enable the band to go ahead with Its plans and will eliminate the dan ger of the band breaking up for lack of funds. At the present time the hand Is well orgnnlzed and with the knowledge that tho city Is behind it financially It will doubtless make even larger plans for Its future work. o SPIRELLA CORSETS Made to measure.
