the heart so spontaneously pours out
its grateful tribute to the Father
above for all his goodness through the
year. And this applies equally to our
selves as a nation, as communities
and as individuals. For peace within
our borders, for generous h&rvests,
for the health and welfare of our COM
munities, we owe to God debt OF
love and gratitude which finds express
sion in prayer, praise and the festivi-
ties appropriate to the annual festival
Of Thanksgiving. We are usually 80
much engrossed with the active bust
ness of life as a nation that we
leave too little time for reflection on
the divine goodness; yet every day
we are surrounded by blessings.
Sleeping and waking, on the farm, in
the store, the office, the workshop.
we are still the objects of his won
drous bounty and care. Whatever re-
verses we encounter, he enables us
to overcome them. So, while the pass
ing year has had its sorrows, we feel
that the joys have outweighed them.
and that we are still Gods debtors In
thanks for multitudinous blessings.
Let us show our gratitude for all OF
these mercies by reaching out help
Ing hand to others who have been
less fortunate than ourselves. Re-

PRIVILEGES MOBILES HAVE
Certain Lords May Retain Their Hats While in the Presence of the
 King

The British peerage presents many points of curious interest In the first place there exists an astonishing disparity in the number of titles en- joyed by the different peers. the Duke of AthOll. for instance, being so richly provided for in this relation that. were he competent, he might transfer title to each of 21 different men, and yet retain his dukedom for him self says Harpers Weekly.
 The Duke of Argyll is also a man of many titles In addition to that of duke. he holds some r titles as baron. viscount. earl and marquis. to say nothing of a knighthood over 500 years old.
 The Duke of Hamilton has 16 titles to spare; the Duke of Buccleuch and the Marquis of Butte could each spare 15. while retaining the rank whereby he is chiefly known.
 Despite the almost unlimited range for choice of a title. many of the British peers have titles which they share with several others. No fewer than five members of the English nobility are Lords Howard, and a like number are entitled to pose as Lord Hamilton. There are four Lords Stuart or Stewart, while of Lords Bruce, Boyle. Hay and others there are at least three apiece.
 This confusion of titles in Eng land is more difficult to understand because there are quite a number of counties still unappropriated for pur- poses Of ennoblement.

Ford and Johnson Exchange
Condolences But Learn
Nothing.
(By W. S. Farnsworth).

New York, n. Y, April 8.-Two OF
the greatest pitchers in the American
league met at Ponce de Leon park IN
Atlanta, Ga, a couple of weeks ago.
They were Russell Ford, the sensa-
tiinal spitball twirler of the New York
Americans, and Walter Johnson, the
John Meekin for speed of the Washing
ton team.
Ford and Johnson are close friends,
and during the practice of the Ma
tionals one morning Ford strolled out
in a uniform to workout a bit before
the game in the afternoon between the
Yankees and Otto Jordan's Atlanta
club Of the Southern league.
Johnson was well. warmed up by the
time the New Yorker arrived at the
grounds and he was fairly burning the
atmosphere with a fast bali that had a
peculiar break to It.
Where do you get all that speed
from, Walter" Ford asked of the tall
Washington boxman.
Gee, I don't know" answered John
son.
About 10 minutes later Ford began
cutting loose with his splitter, which is
the freakiest of all freak deliveries.
And how in the dickens do you make
that ball break that way, Russ?" asked
Johnson.
cOulQnt tell you IL you PAID me
a million dollars" replied Ford.
1t Cannot BE Taught.
And there you are. The art of base
ball pitching cannot be taught; 1t must
be natural Of course a pitcher can be
taught when to pitch an inside or an
outside or a high or low ball. He can
be shown how to change his pace, mix
ing in a dope ball with his fast ones.
But in a matter of curves he finds It
hard work to instruct another man so
that he can deliver the same heave.
AS in every case there are exceptions
to this rule. For instance, Jack Quinn,
who was next to Ford in winning per-
centage for the Yankees last season,
has finally mastered one of Ford's
spitters But it was only after watching
Ford pitch, day in and day out. all
through the southern practice of the
New York club, that Quinn could get
the ball to break right.
Ford's Side Hand Splitter.
When Ford was with Atlanta few
years ago he was the possessor of a
side hand splitter that was a peacherino.
But as he was a natural overland
HEAVIER he found that side arm bail
was injuring his wing. Therefore. he
and perfected an overland
wet fling, which last season won 26 out
of 80 games for him
Now Quinn is a distinct side arm
twirler He always had a good splitter,
but Ford spent hour after hour with
him at Athens, Ga, where the Yankees

PACKY MCFARLAND
HAS EASY VICTORY
Puts Ghetto Boy Against the
Ropes in Every Round
of ROI1t.

Racine, Wis. April s-Packey Nc
Farland had things all his own way
last night in his battle with Maurice
Bloom, the Chicago ghetto boy, who
has been coming to the front recently,
and the battle ended in the eighth
round when Bloom was knocked out
after having been against the ropes
or down in nearly every round.
The first three Vounds were un-
eventful until the middle of the third,
when straight right to the stomach
by Bloom shook Mcfarland into action
and he rushed his man to the ropes
with hard rights and lefts to the face
In the fourth Bloom became groggy un-
der rights to the face and in the fifth
only the gong saved him from a knock
out.
In the sixth Mcfarland sent Bloom
on his knees. Blum jumped up. but was

his. one idea was to wallop the ball

The Real Opening
To the baseball fan the big leagues
open their season about the middle of
April every year. But the real opening
Of the season takes place six weeks be-
fore that. 1t is the work IN the south
that starts the year in the baseball
world
1t is the condition of the men who
report north in April that counts for
much more than the averages fan ap-
preciates. a team that is in tiptop shape
when the championship race starts will
always get the jump on the club that
ran into tough weather in the south and
returned home only half conditioned.
The eye, the wind. the legs and the
arms are treated with care and science
during the training trip and if team
has had successful weather and good
grounds in the south they will beat
their opponents who haven't been so
fortunate, nine times out of 10 during
the first month of the season.
Danger In entertaining
But there is such a thing as return
ing north overturned. A few years ago
Frank Bowerman was made manager of
the Boston National league team. Down
south that spring he started his men
off at a midseason rate of speed He
worked the players so hard that when
they returned north they fairly swept
every team before them. But the squirt
only lasted about three weeks and in
a month the team dropped from the top
position to the cellar.
They had trained too fine in the
south and had gone stale. Spring train
ing is a science and every year more
and more attention is devoted to it, for
it is the work in the warmer states in
the early months of the year that has a
powerful lot to do with the winning OF
the pennant.

trained this year. showing him how to
fling the old splitter that put Atlanta
on the baseball map.
Since then Quinn has been work ing
on the ball and today he has it down
pat With his old splitter as good as
ever the husky Yankee Is probably the
only boxman in the world who can
honestly boast of having two separate
and distinct wet deliveries.
But there isn't one case in a hun

Batting is different Many writers
will say that a batSman cannot be
made. Now 1 am going to prove that
they can.
When scout Arthur Irwin took the
Yannigans,' south, the first of last
March, he had as likely a bunch of re-
cruits as one could wish to see. The
first day they went out for practice
they stood at the plate and slammed
the ball to all sections OF the lot. A
few days later when the pitchers arms
began to get right and they put some
thing on the pellet, the demon clouters
of the first few days began swinging

bush leagues. but not in fast company.
Of the Is youngsters in the camp not
one was using the bat that would bring
them the best result Immediately Irwin
secured new sticks for the men.
Those that had been using long, light
wagon tongues were given short, heavy
ones. They were told to stop swinging
at the ball and to chop their stroke.
Where they formerly stood at the plate
with the right shoulder lowered If a
right hand batsman, they were shown
If they kept their right side higher up
they would get more steam behind their
drives and vice versa
Then they were told how to hit with
the runner; how to hit TO right field

sion called for.
