OLD RAsTY DID
THE TRICK

About three or four thousand
maybe more--in rapt attention
watched a total eclipse Of the
Champion by the Indians out at
Recreation. Old Aurora's appulse
that had to. be viewed through
smoked glasses wasn't in it with
that phenomenal maneuvering out
there on the diamond.
Rasty Wright is the one who
held those big Champions down to
two hits, and likewise batted like
top notcher. He'd have sent
them off the grounds without a
good square swat at the ball had
he not got tired of spelling their
brave charges upon the whizzing
sphere. With that bunch on bases,
a hoard of brain work in evidence
among the Indian batters, and the
way Rasty dug up the mellow earth
and rubbed 1t on his cap, it was q
cinch from the start that Vancou-
yer would have to play some II
they wanted so much as look In.
There were some good plays on
either side, but nothing put up by
the Champions that compared with
Altman's clever steal home in the
sixth, just when the fans were
thirsting for another score. And
the way Clynes pounded the ball to
the right field fence and won q
home in the seventh. 1t was only
by hairs breadth and by a close
decision by Flynn that Burnett and
Spencer failed to engineer a risky
squeeze successfully.
1t was the sort Of ball that makes
the fans go wild in the east, where
they think the west don't know
good ball. 1t was enough to con-
vince anyone of pessimistic beliefs
as to the Indians that there is still
chance Of the aborignes camping
on the topmost plane of the north
west league pyramid.
Hickey pitched a fairly good
game for Vancouver, and the whole
Vancouver team was supporting
him.

Child life IN Hoplland, especially IN the sum-
mer, Is one long holiday, with nothing to do,
nothing TO wear,-for which they are extremely
thanktul,-and plenty TO eat. Generations OF
cliff life have made these youngsters veritable
mountain goats and they jump from rock to
rock or from cliff TO cliff, where misstep would
hurl them to death hundreds OF feet on the
rocks below Children of both sexes up TO four
or five wears old run around IN a state OF com

they compelled 10 wear clothes. When | first
went among the Hopi people there was good
deal more nudity than can be seen at present.
Now only the smaller children run IN a state of
nature. and even these are often compelled tc
don clothes at the approach OF strangers.

In the Family Circle

7 HAVE often, IN wandering through the vii
lagos, looked IN on my Indian friends and
found the most perfect pictures OF domestic
bliss Gathered generally near the mealIng
stones or the open doorway, the little group
would be squatted on the hard clay floor the
young mother caring for her baby and the
father usually fonding an older child. Young
humming softly q melodiOus chant as they
ground the corn into meal, occasionally look
ing UP from their work TO JOIN IN the general
conversation. The grandfather, with quiet dig
nitv and loving care, would be teaching a naked
baby to walk and the grandmother would be
patiently explaining the mysteries of basket
making TO young girl whose head rested
against her shoulder. Friends Of the family
would drop IN from time TO time, and place
would be gladly made for them IN the family
circle Conversation would soon become ami
mated, and every witty remark would be
greeted with generous laughter. The weather,
the conditions Of the crops, and the attitude OF
the Government agent would be the serious
subjects under discussiOn; but village gossip
and family affairs occupy considerable time
We are taught to look upon primitive people
as examples Of crudlty and given over to
vicious and evil passions. White people usually
believe the Indians TO be far below themselves,
both physically and intellectually. Nothing
could be more erroneous. In physique they are
better developed, and their senses are more
acute than among the lower classes Of our own
people In his behavior to his trIbesmen as
we'll as 10 the whites the Indian IS ceremon1ous
and dignifed He is as modest IN his ambition
As he is in his demands on Nature. lie never
asks for more than he needs; he knows not
the spirit OF greed. He believes in the I'M
mortality Of the soul, and his fervor IN the
worship Of his gods IS uneXcelled.
