The Baseball Fan.

A baseball "fan" Is generally the
butt for jokes, but after all you will
usually find that the baseball fan
is a man who Is wideawake and up
to date in all his business transact
ions. Sport Is necessity to the
human being. who doesn't wish to
grow stale and useless in his life's
work. The fact that 50 many men
take interest in baseball is an indi-
cation that il appeals to them as
clean and honorable sport; one that
they can patronize without lowering
their dignity or losing their self-re-
spect. The business man who for
sakes his office for few hours TO
watch a game, or who goes 10 the
bulletin boards to learn the results
of the game as IL IL played In other
cities, gains more than he loses; ne
returns to his business refreshed and
rciuvenated and ready for anything
that comes. The man who loses IN

sordid details of his business Is on

and the crocheting can be done in
linen thread, as for Irish crochet, or
In some OF the new tinsel threads. Oc-
casionally colored silk thread and
gold or silver are crocheted together
with good effect
An easily worked motif that can be
readily followed by any one who un.

Work ring OF six chain, make ten
chain, turn with three chain and work
twelve treble under the chain. ending
with one double crochet In the ring.
Turn. work ten chain. one treble. into
the seventh preceding treble. two
chain, and one treble into the next.
and repeat to the end making -four
spaces. Turn with two chain, one
double crochet In the first space, re-
peat three times. then work twelve
treble under the ten chain as before
Repeat from until eight arms are
made. Joining the first and last to-
gether. @
This motif can be made iu various
sizes by increasing the number OF
each set OF stitches. remembering TO
keep them in the same proportion
throughout.
In all crocheting keep the work
even and do not pull the stitch at one
time and have II loose again. To look

regions will be free to produce cotton,
wool and necessary food crops, such

Eagle remarks upon the indisputable
fact that there is no authority in the

without specific constitutional au.
thority. There Is. for instance. a NJ

is Uncle Sam" and there is Miss Co.

except the self-assured authority OF

upon which everybody is agreed.
There is not likely to be national

country can afford to wait.
