HOW FIRST BASE Is PLAYED
Jake Daubert Of Brooklyn National
League Team Gives Few Tips on
Initial Sack Position.

how to play first base. 1t is one thing
to get in and play the game accord
ing to my own ideas, and a different
thing 20 set myself up as an au-
thority.
youngster who wants to play
first base-or anywhere else on the
team-must have the natural ability.
He must be able to play the mechan-
ical part of baseball with ease.
A first baseman should be a left
handler.
This Is not conceit because | am
left-handed, but it is clearly appar-
ent fact that a left-handed man can
handle first base more successfully
than Highlander. He has the en-
tire infield before" him, so to speak,
and does not have TO make the turns
that a right-handed player is often
compelled to make OF course, there
have been some brilliant first base
men who we're right-handed, but they
were brilliant In spite of this fact
and not because of it,
A first baseman must always make
specially of handling thrown balls.
He must be able to accept the throws
of other players without regard to the
man who may be coming down first
base line from the plate at top speed
At the same time he must take the
throw in such way that he will be
able TO touch the bag and yet keep
clear of the runner
The youngster can learn the Pc
culiarities of players opposing him by
close observation. Nearly every bat
ter has some manner of betraying
himself. Few use the same style of
bunting and hitting
/ have found it good policy to play
deep when there is pitcher work

first ahead off a runner. Once

man to use both his hands in taking

A trial package OF Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills will be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon. SD
Jefferson SITS. Philadelphia, Pa. II you are
in need Of medical advice. do not fail TO
write Professor Munyon. Your communi-
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had a personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laxatives or cathartics. They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour. they do
not grippe. they do not weaken. but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in a way that soon puts
these organs in n healthy condition and
corrccts constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 20 feet of human
bowels, which il really sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes c!oggcd the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing bilousncss, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman VINO
suffers with constipation or any hVer
ailment can expect TO have clear
complexion or enjoy good health IL
had my way / would prohibit the sale
Of nine-tcnths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach
setting up serious forms of indigestion
and 80 paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse TO act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are tonic
to the stomach. livv and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead OF impoverish
It; they enable the stomach TO get all
the nourishment from food that is put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing. healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
TO act without physic.

CLERGY PREFER The
OLD DECALOGUE


New York, February 21.-The pro-
posal to revise the Ten Commandments
that is being discussed by the Convo-
cation of Canterbury, now sitting IN
Westminster, England, under the pre5i-
dency of the Archbishop of Canterbury
is opposed by ministers of the larg-
est and most influential congregations
here
According to dispatches from Eng
land, the scope of the movement is 10
modify and shorten the Second, Fourth
and Tenth Commandments. While no
general discussion of the matter has
been inaugurated in America, the
proposed abridgment of the Decalogae
has aroused comment and the outcome
is being watched with interest.
Representative clergymen who were
interviewed declared that they had
not discussed the movement and all
they had heard of it was contained N
the newspapers. The concensus Of
their opinions was that there was 40
need for any modification of the Com
mandments and if the proposed change
was adopted no better results would
be accomplished. One said the move
ment was absurd; another said it was
humorous.
1t was pointed out that if the con-
vocation of Canterbury did shorten the
wording of the Commandments Their
action would not affect the Anglican
church, and that that body is not the
authoritative one that it once was,
as there are a number of dissenting
bodies in England that would give 10
recognition to these proposed iuEo-
vations.
