FINNEY WARMING Up.
A shout of joy the fans let Out
When F'inney took the ball
And tossed a few to exercise
His arm. in view of all
cry traversed tile multitude
Great Finneys warming upr'-
That threatened to upset the park
And scores OF lungs disrupt.
A breathless silence fell upon
The rooters waiting there
While Finney tipped the bah along
In manner debonair.
Estopped were all the rolling spheres.
The beaming sun stood still,
Tile very wind did wait upon
The famous Tlnney's will
The works of nature tarried while
The pitcher warmed his arm
ii would have been a tragedy
II he had come to harm.
But Finney died a week ago
1t was a grievous loss
No more he'll conquer in the box,
No more "hot ones he'll toss.
No more he'll be the target of
Ten thousand eager eyes,
No more he'll wake the bleachers Up
Poor Finney went the beaten way
fIIe loved the flowing cup.
And while he's dead it's possible
That he's still warming up.

tablished his existence by being hurt in

THE NEIGHBoRs.

It's funny that the neighbors' boys
Are horrid little brats
While ours are the finest lads
That ever tortured cats
It's funny that the neighbors' pets
Are merely fit to Stay.
While those that We elect to keep
Are never in the way.
It's funny that the neighbors do
So many things we would
Not do for anything on earth
Not even if we could -
Its funny that the neighbors are
So very queer and rude,
While We are always gently bred
And easily construed
It's funny that they wear such clothes
To shock us, holy gee!
And seem to be so very dense,
When we are quick to see.
It's funny how we laugh at them
And all their faults discuss,
But funniest of all is how
The neighbors laugh at us
There is no reason why we should con-
tinually say dead as Hector" when We
mean that man is dead. Hector. while a
good man in his way and day. is no deader
than the late Caips. Julius Caesar. Mar,

altho he lived and died before their time.
When a man Is dead ne is dead. and that
is all there is to It. Every dead man
Is as dead as Hector, therefore why the
smile?
