SELECT BLINDS
SO DUCKS MUST.
COME RIGHT AWAY
Advice Given for Making Hiding
Places for Hunters in Dif
ferent Water.
The Important thing about a duck
blind Is that it must be natural looking.
In selecting the desired spot on the
river, make your, blind so that the ducks
will come in off the blind. Along rivers
and medium sized streams, plenty of
drift wilt be found, and this can be piled
up In the form of a pen, with an open
ing at the back for easy entrance.
Another satisfactory blind can be con
structed by digging a pit and piling
drift around it until it is sufficiently
high to screen the gunners.
Hanter Must Use Head
The ingenuity of the gunner will sug
. gest many methods of making a good
blind. For example, a handy method is
to stick up a fringe of willow branches
to form a circular shelter, or when a
blind la wanted for a short time, per
haps on the bar of a tidal river, a 50
foot length of poultry netting about
three feet wide, In which branches of
willow or other bush growth is braided
In between the mesh, will form a good
imd portable screen.
For lake blinds any growth abundant
about the water may be used to good
.advantage In maxing the shelter for the
gunner.
In Shallower Water
For shallow water, a couple of rows
i ef willows or other green leaved bushes
i. stuck In the bottom with the boat be
.. tween. makes a satisfactory blind.
For winter shooting. Ice can be easily
piled up about breast high to afford a
proper screen for the shooter.

Gene Paulette

. Baseball Held
Gene Paulette, the CJardinal's clever
man-of -all-work, created a National
league record In the final game- of the
season when he went to the pitching
mound in the" last Inning of the open
ing game of the double-header with the
Cincinnati Reds.
Paulette now knows the distinction of
having played in every position on the
ball club. Although he was listed as the
team's regular first baseman, a posl
tion where he developed into one of
the best performers in the league, Pau
lette displayed versatility which, en
abled Manager Jack Hendricks to use
him at other places to advantage.
With the club handicapped by a lack
of capable reserve talent, Paulette a
different times served at second, third
and J. shortstop. He also , played the
three different outfield positions. A
former catcher, be was able to relieve
Mike Gonzales behind the bat, while
Labor day Manager , Hendricks sent
him to the mound to give him the did
tinction of having served in every role
on the club.

Carlisle Gave Some Great Fig
ures to Athletic Field in the
Roseate Days.
KTEW YORK, Sept 21. The famous
Carlisle Indians will be missing from
the gridiron this year.
The taking over, of the .'school by the
government for th purpose of trans
forming it into an army general hos
pital marks the passing of one of Amer
ica's most Unique institutions, and like
wise stamps out traditional: Carlisle
football.
Gives Conn try Many Stars
Carlisle has given many football stars
to the country during her roseate his
tory, among the greatest of whom were
Jim Thorpe, peer of all around athletes ;
Mount Pleasant, Metoxen, Hudson,
Pierce, Red Water. Wheelock, Houser,
Waseka, Libby, Williams, Johnson, Lit
tle Old Man, Exendlne, Lubo, Caswell.
Hendricks. Little Boy, Payne, Seneca
and others.
In baseball, basketball and track Car
lisle teams have generally ranked
among the foremost of the East, and
the bronze-skinned athletes wJio were
developed under the shadows of her
towers were trained by some of the
greatest of coaches.
Where Warner Flourished
Glenn 'Warner, now coach of the fa
mous Pittsburg university football
teams, made a great reputation at Car
lisle. Bern us Pierce, Frank Hudson.
Vance McCormick, Billy Bull. Eddie
Rogers and others took their turns in
tutoring the athletic teams at the great
Indian institution. ...
Carlisle's methods in sports were oft-
times criticised by outsiders, yet, not
withstanding such criticisms, sports a
Carlisle were clean, and the natural
ability of the native Americans in near
ly all lines of sport gave Carlisle the
kind of material to gladden the heart of
any coach. The passing of the . greal
Indian school from athletics, will be
regretted by sport followers In general.

MINOR LEAGUE NOT :
SURE OF REGAINING
ITS FORMER PLACE
Dick Kinsella Lets loose Some Interesting Dope on Baseball Sit
uation Before the War and P rospect of Game When War
Is Over and the Boys Come Marching Home. -
INISTER DICK KINSELLA, prosperous iu his
time as a minor league club owner and later fa--"-mous
as a scout for the Cardinals and Giants is; . ,x
dubious as to the ultimate fate of minor league,
baseball. Th,e bringer out of Larry Doyle, Heinic .
Groh, Frank Snyder and other famous ball tossers' "
has quit "ivory hunting" for an essential occupa "
tion the varnish business.
"Few followers of major league baseball real- -ize
how many are affected by the present condi- -
tion of the sport with the game literally shot to :
pieces, said the erstwhile scout. len years ago there were 45
leagues enrolled under the banner of organized baseball. Those
49 leagues, major and minor, employed approximately 6000 ball,
players. Today there are but three out-ana-out professional base-' .
ball leagues operating National, American and International. , ;
"The war, hitting the big leagues amidships, not only took .
Viair Kact nUvre Kilt ct tViir Hct "1ictrtfnrc - TTranoi 9e "trtl ... i
and provided an international show
baseball.
"Major league club owners rolled
In wealth until the war came in
1911. I was In on the ground floor,
and 'don't let 'em tell you different
I was only 'one of the help,' but the
Cardinals paid me $5000 and ex
penses to scout in 1912. and the
Giants kicked in with $6500 for simi
lar services in 1915. It cost the New
York, club $1000 to sign Rube Mar
quard that year. I was sent all the
way to Tacoma to round him up.
Cards Netted llSt.m
"I might name other of the huge
profits that were piled up in the
majors, but it may suffice to say
that even the Cardinals in 1911 made,
$130,000 net. Bresnahan told BUI
Armour and myself we both were
scouting for the Brittons in 1912
to go out and buy some good play
ers. I bought one. Frank Snyder,
for $1200, and the club turned down
an offer of $15,000 for Frank that
winter, or, to be exact, before the
teams went into training in the
spring of 1913.
"Armour recommended one
George Whitted. He didn't do well
for a while and slipped away from
St Louis to Boston at a ridicu
lously low figure, in a trade of second-string
men.
So Morning Glories
"Armour and I earned our sal
aries turning down morning glor
ies.' Now I'm peddling varnish,
and I can't complain, either. Ar
mour's running a saloon in Kansas
City, and pretty soon hell be doing
something other than marketing In
terior varnish.
"Ten years ago there were a
dozen minor league franchises worth
from $50,000 to $150,000. Charlie
Kbbets made $80,000 net one season
with the Newark International
league team. This is only a sam
ple of the big money that was in
baseball among the smaller leagues.
Saw tht Handwriting
" used to own the Springfield
Three-1 league club, and sold out
10 years ago when I saw the hand
writing and realized that golf, au
tomobiles and country clubs were
killing minor league baseball as a
business. The Springfield business
men who bought the franchise lost
$30,000 before they gave up the
Khot.
"Koger Bresnahan quit the Car
dinals $27,500 to the good. Mrs.
Britten settled with him for $12,500.
. and Charlie Murphy gave him $15,
000 to sign with the Cubs. Roger
showed me the checks in the Plant

bottle of wine and handed the waiter
a $5 Up.

'Let me take care of that mony
for you.' I advised. j
" "Never mind ; I can handle It,
replied the duke.
"Roger Invested the bank roll In
the Toledo American association
club. If he had to do it over again,
I'll bet he would stick that money
in Liberty bonds.
"Major league ball will come back
as strong as ever, perhaps stronger,
after the war, and I would not care
to hazard a guess as to the future
