RUFFLES DADS DIGNITY,
The Young Baseball ROoter Causes
His Paternal to Feel Too
Prominent.

He is a Chicago board of trade man, dig.
nified to degree, has luxuriant, bushy side
whis kers, clean chin and upper lip, and he
dearly loves baseball. He also has a son
six years old, who loves the game as dearly
as does his father, and while the elder enjoys
the playing in a solid, placid, contented way,
the boy bubbles over with enthusiasm and
outroots all other rooters.
During the last Chicago.St. Louis game
father and son sat in the grand stand under
the, intense strain of knowing that st. Louis
had two men on bases and two out, and il
the man at the bat made base hit the score
would be tied. The latter smote the ball
heavily. 1t scared upward and onward, far
back into what the baseball reporter calls
"the left garden"
Left Fielder Ryan was there, and, after q,
long, hard squirt, caught the fly on his finger
tips and held it. The crowd screamed Joy
ously and the small son of his father nearly
went out Of his skin for glee. The father
merely smiled with dignity.
Finally the crowd ceased its yelling after
the left fielder had doffed his cap thrice.
There was silence as he walked to the bench
twlr!lng his blond mustache with either
hand.
Then, with his fathers clean shaven upper
lip in mind, and with voice that drew the
attention Of the assembled hundreds toward
his devoted dad, the six.year.old rooter fair
" yelled: 20, pap, don't you wish you
had mqstache like Jimmie Ryan's"-Chi-
