Too Much OF the Mechanical In
Baseball Nowadays.
Individuality Ia Lost BY oesylns sig

Nowadays there IL too much that
IL mechanical IN baseball. In fact the
playing on some major league teams
has become 80 mechanical mat many
OF the players lose their individuality.
In order 10 become \ good base run.
ner a man must " allowed TO act
upon bis " judgment and think for
himself. Il IL q shame that players
have 70 take signals from a manager
on the bench and act accordingly even
though his good judgment would die.
tate Just the reverse u IL In this
way that a player becomes a cog In
the mechanism a. a team.
Suppose q heady man Is on second
and sees an excellent opportunity to

What will the ordinary ball player
doG
The answer n simple. He will hold
his base no matter what happens and
do exactly as the manager was.s him

That Ia why many budding stars
were dimmec before they had a chance

Large Addition to Plant.
Nnrragnnseti Brewing Go. Greatly
Increased in Size.

TO meet the constantly increasing de
mand for Narragansett Brewing Co.'S. pro-
ducts the company decided that year ago
the yearly additions to its cvcr-growng
plant must give way to an extraordinary
expenditure for the years 1910 and 1911.
In order that larger quantities of malt
product may be brewed, stored and aged,
the latter feature upon which the company
has always laid particular stress, anording
recognition by the public that the name
Narragansett is the surest protection
against the drinking Of young or msulhci-
emily aged beer, the company has for the
past eighteen months erected a building
approximately IoS X I3S feet, four stories
nigh, with cellars below the surface. Thi,
building will give the company about
IS, 600 square feet Of floor space and viii
include iermcntlng rooms, wash house,
storage cellars and racIiug room. From
the new racking room goods can be loaded
on cars ON one side for shipments out OF
the state, aud ON the other side for local
deliveries.
The storage cellars will hold 10, 600 bar
reIs each, and there the goods will age in
the most modern steel porcelain enameIcd
watts known to the art of brewing. With
a capacity OF 800, 600 barrels the company
sold during the year 1910, 10000 barrels,
and when this addition to it, plant is
completed it will have a capacity OF
500, 600 barrels.
One OF the reasons for building on such
an enormous scale was to enable the COM
pany TO brew its new product, called
"Gansett Pisner," a brewing of imported
Saazer Land bohemian hops and the best
quality fancy malt, These goods will sooa
be placed on the market for the critical
and particular beer-drnking public, with
which the company expect, as great a
success as it has enjoyed with the popular
A" Famous Select Stock Lager aud Hat
Stock Banquet Ales, so well known aud
appreciated for the last twenty years.
"Gansett Prsuer" is brewed under the
watchful supervision of George Wilhelm,
the same brew master, who for twenty-oue
years has produced the other famous brews
1t is needless to say that the "Sclcct
Stock Lager and A,es" will bc retained in
that usual superior quality which has given
he company an enviable reputation.
Nevertheless, trial of the new lager
"Gausctt pilsner" will convince anyone
that it is something out OF the ordinary,
and really choice beverage.
