MODEL HUSBANDS.
Rev. George w. King Outlines What
Thew Should Exemplify.

Rev George w. King. pastor of the Dunn
barton Avenue NJ E. Church. took for his
text in a sermon last night the qualities
that go to make up model husband. He
declared that a model husband loves on,
and will not do toward his wife what he
would not have her do toward him. and
will not prove untrue to his marriage vows.
and that he will not. through drunkenness
or unchristianlike ways. bring sorrow or
pain to his wifes heart.
"A model husband DR.. King said,
never abuses his wife's inferior strength
or position. Such a man is "A coward.
Neither will he neglect his fireside for clubs
or other places where he will find amuse-
ment or frivolity vice. Neither will he
neglect his wife and tireside for money
getting A true wife's heart needs more
than gold: it needs companionship. He
should take pains in furnishing his home
and making those about him happy, and
he should lead his family to the family
altar and church
Dr. King brought his sermon to a close
by saying that there is no sadder spectacle
than two persons united in law. dwelling
together but not Interested in each other
except it be on the lowest terms THE
model husband he said. lis always a
lover His love is not merely a passionate
love of temporary makeup and limited
boundaries that dies with the honeymoon
but a soul principle that survives the trials
and changes of welded life. There is moth
ing a woman wants more than this evil
dence of undying love. 1t is her life

SECRET OF NICK
ATLROCK'S SUCCESS

Nick Altrock Is one OF the hardest
pitchers in the world to beat because he
doesn't give base runners chance to steal
on him. said Frank Selee. the former man
ager Of the Cubs during a tanning bee at
the Western League meeting recently to q
Chicago Record Herald reporter. Mr.. Sc
lee, who has always been one of the closest
observers in base ball. and one of the most
interesting takers on the national game.
pointed out in concise manner the big ad-
vantage Altrock has over an opposing
team
I'm the first place. said the veteran
manager. "AltroCk has almost perfect con-
troll. That means you have got to hit the
ball to get to first. Secondly, you can't
steal on him. because he watches first like
n hawk and has a wonderful snap throw to
the base which does not permit runner
to get more than two steps away from the
base without great danger of getting
caught.
There are several pitchers in the game
who have more speed and better curves
than Altrock. but who don't win as many
games. Nick more than makes up for his
lack of speed and curves by his great
fielding. his accurate control and his atten-
ton men the bases 1t has been the
same for years. Good handlers who kept
the runners close to first were always win.
ners.
Runners Forced at Second.
Against that kind OF pitching a team is
at horrible disadvantage. You can't steal
bases. and the hit-and-run play is easily
broken I'D. When the runners are kept
hugging first force plays at second base
occur with greater frequency and the In
flelders are given more time to pull off
double plays.
When ii team can't steal bases ii ism t
going to win very often. and there are
mighty few runners who can pilfer second
on Altrock Doc White of the Sox is al
most good in watching the bases. al
though his throw to first is not good as
'Nick's.' Where White shines is his de-
ceptive delivery. He delivers the ball to
the bat very often in such a puzzling man
ner that the runner on first is fooled into
going back to that base. expecting throw
there from the pitcher.
Not enough pitchers cultivate that short
throw to first. There are several good left
