It's oh! to be young in world grown
old,
!, A sober world and gray:
With chivalry 81 banishcd aud love
grown cold,
And fairies flew away: x
For the little people are over the sea,
over the sea to the West.
A thousand leagues through the sunset
gates. they dwell In the isles Of
the blest,
It's oh! to be young in world grown
old.
4 "A world that once was fair;
She has painted her face like an old.
time. queen,
And tired her faded hair; 4
And love, and laugnter, and hope, and
faith, are withered and worn as
She;
For all sweet things are fled away
with the little folks over the sea.

| To the average baseball fan these
annual spring training trips seem like
vacation jaunt. and the recruit who
makes the journey for the arst time
may think he 10 going TO get holiday
leave Of absence. The trip Is anything
but that, however. II Is one continu-
Gus round Of hard work. After ons
trip many OF the baseball players
would like to get out Of II II possible.
In the past many veterans have man
aged to be excused from this task. gen.
orally on the pretext Of pressing busi-
meas duties. A. 10 the case every year,
, many requests to BE- exempt from the
preseason workout have been tender

must b OF the burdensome kind this
year. for II seems that q number of
players who have been connected with
the game feel a. II they are entitled to
few more privileges than the debut
tantes and suddenly have become deep
~ involved In financial matters which
will mean the loss OF much good coin
and no little sleep II they have to make
the trip. Several members Of the
strong clubs are pulling one string or
another to remain away from the team
until the championship season opsns.
Such business r. all right among the
amateurs but when baseball becomes
a mans profession he must work a It
the same rs At anything else. and the
spring trip II an important part Of the
work.

There n only one way that he can
accomplish this. and that II through

through playing handhall or taking
