Letter to S. J. Stevenson,
Accomac. Va,

Dear Sir: The wear of paint goes
by gallons; the less-gallons paint
wears longest. The reason, OF course
is its strength 1t takes less gallons,
because it is strong; it-wears a long
time, because it is strong. 1t is all
paint and the strongest paint.
There is a best paint among all.
paint paints. No two are alike, OF
course; no two cover alike or wear
alike. One is thin, another is thick !;
one has too much lead, another too
much zinc. another is right. The right
is Devoe, so far as is yet known. Per-
haps somebody-else will find-out a
better paint than Devoe; then Devoe
will become a more-gallons paint, a
costlier paint, weaker paint, less
durable paint, a less-economical paint
timid pa mt.
Bigger changes than that have come
over the world. Devoe has the lead
why shouldn't we lose it to some
hOdy else?

 There is just chance that Birming ham will land Elmer Duggan. wire came from Dobbs yestereay asking that Vaughn make the best cash offer for him.
 Elmer is A good pitcher all right. though several degrees inferior to his brother Johnny. Today he pitches well, and tomorrow, miserably. How ever, Elmer will come In case some other club doesn't get him first. and in case Manager Vaughn, in the mean time, doesn't do better
 The Barons needed q pitcher before Ragan was attacked and now the need is three-fold greater. Manager Vaughn is busy. and there will be another pitcher in Birmingham within a short while. He will not be an amateur, either It is impossible at this time to get a pitcher from the big leagues. Even if one club is willing to turn him loose, it is practically impossible to obtain the necessary waivers.

versation with President Baugh. Both men thought the scheme good. and as Me- Cullough stated the league is rich enough and important enough to stand the addi- tional expense.
 The scheme is to have a supernumer- ary umpire in every city, whose duty will be to work whenever the regular official Is absent.
 The expense would not be great, the ..supes" being enumerated only when they work. Inasmuch as he would be clothed with the authority of the league official, his presence would not license ball players to take advantage of the sit uation as they 60 sometimes when players are offic,ating The scheme looks good.
