COLLEGE PLAYER BIG ASSET
Through Discipline and Educational
Advantages They Are Amen
able to Suggestions.

President Thomas J. Lynch OF the
National league OF baseball clubs be-
lieves that the college baseball play
er who demonstrates his ability to
play fast ball Is valuable asset to
big league club and in an interview
In the Yale News gives his reasons.
Lynch says, among other things.
that the college players bring with
them from the college campus that
spirit OF true sportsmanship and de-
termination to win which they have
learned In college Through disci-
pline and educational advantages they
are particularly amenable to sugges-
tions and easy to manage. AS rule
they come to the clubs In excellent
physical condition and understand
thoroughly both the necessity and
the methods necessary to maintain
such form. Their whole career has
been one of instruction, which enables
them to grasp the finer points in
baseball as played In the big leagues
and the futility of attempting to
transgress the rules and regulations
laid down to preserve the integrity OF
the game.

WHY DRINK AIDS MENTALITY
Some Men Do Their Best Thinking
Under Influence Of Liquor Because
Nerves Have Been Weakened.

We wish to answer seriously
seemingly flippant inquiry. omitting,
Of course. the signature of the writer,
says the New York American.
"Will you tell me how manage to
think my most beautiful thinks In
drink"
Some men really do their best work
under the influence of drink for this
reason: Drink has weakened their
nerves and put their constitutions and
vitality below par. They do their best
work when they drink, just as poor,
thin abused. tired cart horse does his
best work when he Is lashed with a
whip. This does not speak well for
the whip, does It? 1t does not prove
that the lashlng OF the horse is no
BILE process or the whip an admirable
instrument. 1t simply proves that II
you abuse an unfortunate creature and
render him unfit for work. you must
abuse him still more to get a little
work out of him.
You think your most beautiful
thoughts in drink for various rea-
sons.
In the first place. when you drink
you are quite easily pleased, and you
are pleased most easily with yourself.
II you were sober. your thoughts
would not seem so beautiful to you.
Often what you think In drink you
would be very sorry to hear repeated
in your dull. sober hours.
In the second place. feeling Is es-
sential to any strong thinking. II is
essential to the expression OF any
strong emotion The man who drinks
hard or even comes to rely to any ex-
tent upon drink has dead nerves and
a dead Imagination when his drink
time is over.
Drink sets TIE heart to beating; II
sets the blood to pumping through the
brain; II stimulates the mysterious
combustion OF matter which results
In thought, and emotion becomes
stronger in proportion to the strength
that accompanies this combustion.
The coward wants to fight when he
is drunk He has some feeling. The
dull mind gets imaginative. 1t has
some feeling. This does not glorify
the coward or make the dull mind bet
ter. 1t usually makes both ridiculous
and pathetic. In addition to being
cowardly and dull.
Stop drinking for six months, sleer
two hours more per day than you SLEEP
at present, take In more fresh air
think steadily and soberly instead oi
talking boisterously, as you probably
do now. We venture to predict that
you will soon find springing up In
your head some very acceptable
thinks" with which drink will have
nothing to do.

South Sea Islands Temperate.

There are three islands in the South
Pacific namely: The Pitcairn Island,
inhabited by the descendants of the
mutineers Of the Bounty; the Nor.
folk Island, hundred miles to the
south of the Pitcairn, inhabited by the
overflow population from Pitcairn, and
the Corsus Keeling Islands, all Of
which are run on teetotal principles.
No spirits are used, and the few ships
that visit them are not allowed to
land any spirits. These are all under
English rule, and the governor of each
island dictates what the inhabitants
shall do. These are ideal places for
the inebriate, particularly in the abb
solute freedom from all spirits.
