DEVELOP HOME SPIRIT.
BY Juliet v. Strauss.

The individuality Of the home is thing IN

is certain spirit that dwells IN quiet rooms,
which, when once driven away, will never re-

away, too much absence will Danish her.

The school must offer vocational training.
This does not mean that every school shall be

ARM SIGNAL
PLAN in FAVOR
UmpiTeS In General Will Use
the System This
Season

The Umpire arm-signal plan. so well
demonstrated during the worlds cham
pionship series, is growing i'm favor.
and from appearances. viii be i'm ean-
eral use next season. Its introduction
is made easy by the fact that no league
legislation is necessary for its intro
duction or use. 10 is within the prov
ince Of each league president to order
Its use forthwith by his umpires. Presi-
dent Johnson, of the American League.
President Pulliam, of the Nationai
League, and President O'Brien. of the
American Association, have already
decided TO introduce the desirable in
novation I'M their respective leagues
next season; and we have no doubt all
other league officials will soon or
late follow suit The only voice raised
I'm criticism or opposition to date is
that of Umpire O'Day. who is quoted
as follows:
III such change IN the rules is
made it win not only be hardship on
the umpire by adding greater burdens
10 his lot than he now has. but he will
not think OF it hah the time. for his
mind win De on getting down to first
base when there is a play coming OF
there or to some other base when there
is play there. such a rule will work
an right when there are two umnires
In a game. One of the umpires should
stand back OF the pitcher and easily
raise his arm for every bail pitched.
for he would have nothing else to take
Up his mind. but when there is only
one man officiating in a game such a
thing as raising an arm win not occur
TO am umpire when there is play on
the bases. Then, again, II an umpire
has double-header TO work in he will
he unable to keep lifting his arms for
that viii be hard work"
Umpire ODay probably spoke with
out reelection. The umpire who cannot
use the arm signal system without
confusion or trouble Is not ht even for
amateur umpiring All that IS required
OF hn is 10 raise his right arm every
time he calls a strike" No signal is
necessary 10 Indicate a "caued ball"
as the fact that he does not raise his
arm denotes that no strike has been
called and therefore necessarily the
decision must he q called ball" Fur
thernore. vocal announcement win not
be abandoned. but win De used stimuli
t0neously with the arm signal
The system was tried in the worlds
championship series and worked to
charm. so wei. in fact, that everybody
wondered why II has not been thought
Of or tried in the regular champion
ship games long ago. Asumpire O'Day
witnessed the worlds scries and there
fore the arm signal system also his be-
lated objection o. rather singular, to
say the least. we expect 90 see the
