FOR THE CHILDREN
A Private Telephone.

Do boys know that Il Is possible with
little troubls ard expense to construct
a telephone without electricity over
which they can talk for distance of
from 200 to 400 yards? Here is the
way TO do 1t: Get as much ordinary
iron wire as may be needed Of medium
size. say No. IA by the gauge 1t must
be pulled taut. and to this end may be
supported at several places. Wherever
1t is attached, however, II must be
properly insulated, for which purpose
glass or porcelain knobs, such as are
used on window screens, Will serve.
1t ls not essential that the wire
should extend In a straight line from
one terminus TO the other, but rs many
turns or bends may be made as the in
tervening objects may make necessary.
In every case. however. from one point
to the next the wire must be pulled
taut. At each end OF the line the wire
should be fastened to tin diaphragm,
say, six inches In diameter. around the
outer edge OF which should be soldered
tin mouthplece tapering to diane
ter Of about four inches at Its open
end.-Chlcago' News.

A LITTLE TALK FOR The FANS
FROM ALL OVER THE CIRCUIT

"Roaring Bill' Clarke wired presi-
dent Quinn yesterday that he expects
TO close soon the deal that will give
him control of the Lima club and
make the noted player one of the
cards of the Ohio state leage circuit.
Clarke, who was the Toledo first
baseman for the past two seasons,
has been quietly working on the pro-
ject for some time and has made a
personal inspecaion of the Lima
field He spent yesterday in Toledo
and will return probably today to
Lima to complete the deal.
Certainly the other Ohio State
league club owners will be glad TO
receive Clarke into their happy cir
Gle. Years of experience make 1t
certain that Bill will conduct his
club on practical lines. Those with
whom Clarke may have dealings can
rest assured that they will be dealing
with an honorable man.
Ferd Drumm, who has been going
ahead with the construction Of the
Lima club. will be retained in some
capacity by Mr. Clarke If he does
negotiate the deal that will give him
control Of the Lima proposition -

for the Lanks. This is "Blink's"

tliver the goods Two youngsters,
IW. u. Underwood and Ed. Hill will
be given a chance to show what they
know about ball singing.
VIM. Townsend and Fred Quinn,
both new men in Ohio baseball, will
try for the first base position. Moth
ing has been heard from Nefau, the
big Indian. who played first base last
season, and he will be dropped This
Indian was one of the best fielders
the Lanks had but when II came to
batting, he could not connect.
Ernest Swindell, Tom Parftt. Har-
ley Humphries and w. ]. Williams
will cavort around on the inside OF
the diamond.
In the outhelders already signed,
the team appears to he weak There
will be none of the mainstays OF last
seasons team back and an entirely
new bunch Of fielders will have to be
picked. Those signed to try for the
outer garden positions are: Charles
Young, w. F. Morgan, Joe Lyons
and Floyd Turner.
The showing that George Fox made
with the team last season was very
ipleasing to the directors and he will
be back to head the local team.
.Fox's long suit Is in developing
youngsters, and under mis- training,
the Tanks should end the season in
the first division.
The fans are well pleased with the
change in the circuit and all are anx-
ious for the team to take a majority
of the first string of games that the
Lanks will play with Newark at the
beginning OF the season.
Nothing would please the fans more
than to finish ahead of Newark and
II Is to this end that the management
is building up so strong team.

holiday date. II would be sure bet
to wager that this will be banner day,
