John B. Foster Says Present Genera

Twenty Years Ago II Was Different

m AS 1T never occurred To the
I6I average citizen, who has seen
lH baseball for the last six or
0 seven years, or more, that We
are raising an awful lot OF mol
lycoddles In baseball? Especially In
professional baseball. A pitcher has
the stomach ache In the morning. He
may have eaten too many buckwhea,

ried a bit by the fact that he cannot
pitch, for the very good reason that
he knows the team is possessed OF
plenty OF pitchers, and II he cant
in the box somebody else will have
TO serve.
II is true that his affiiction OF buck
wheat cakes may upset all the plans
OF the manager. No wise and ex
perienced manager should lay out
q plan for work without first con
sulting all OF his pitchers and the
buckwheat cakes. Possibly the mo
mentary illness OF the pitcher will
cost the club with which he is con
nected $500 or $500 because OF tn,
temporary bad showing which IL made
by the team. but that is the fault o
the man who engages the players e
contracts.
In mid.winter. when buckwhea
cakes can be eaten with impunity
every owner of a professional base
ball club should so arrange his plan'
that he can provide for the buckwhea

A JUVENILE PARADISE
SO Furnished That Even a Game
of Baseball Harms Nothing.

In many homes the boys room seems 10
be the catch-al for discarded furniture
nismated curtains and impossible pictures
The boy isn't supposed to have any aes-
thetic instincts, because he doesn't banker
after the particular sort of effects that
his sister dotes on; but ne would be a
strange boy who wouldn't appreciate a
honey ana an attractive room, into which
he needn't be ashamed TO bring his boy
friends.
A certain paterfamilias, who hasn't for
gotten how his childhood days were marred
by continual iniunctions not to do this or
10 be careful lest he break that, has origI-
mated q juvenile paradise for his boy.
This room is not SO wonderful In one way.
and necessitated no great outlay of money
time, but it has been a source of IN
limited pleasure to the boy. The room,
which Is on the third floor of the house,
is a bright, sunny place well ventilated
with several windows. which are safely
barred. one end of the hardwood floor is
uncovered, while over the other part is
down securely. This serves as an arena for
acrobatiC feats or other Tomping. The
walls are deadened. 50 that noises cannot
penetrate to other parts of the house. and
are covered with practical blush paper.
from which finger prints can easily be
washed off.
Good Judgment has been displayed in re-
gard TO the pictures. Only a few of his
own faVOrtes hang in this boys sanctum
and these with the electric lights are
Gagged. and there is no breakable bric-A-
brac about-only a few brass trays and
bowls for trinkets The built-in bookcases
here favorite books and magazines
abound have no glass doors and no silk
curtains that may be torn from the rings
so the boy is not haunted by the fear Of
breaking things. and even a mild game Of
baseball, handball or bean bag harms
nothing.
For a boys room nothing is in better
taste than mission furniture. This room
* provided with Two straightforward chairs
and two lounging chairs, but no rockers
The two ia bes are firm affairs made with
rounded corners As for the bed, II is
covered with a pretty spread OF figured
art muslin, which does not soil easily.
