that the world can be depended upon

its noblest Interpretation. llipling, he de-
clared Is the laureate Of labor.
1t is to he wondered at. said the speak
er. that in a country such as this. where
great national problems are continually
arising. there has not been a great poet
developed within recent years. However,
he pointed out, the nation should not ask
for new poets until ii has shown a proper
appreciation of the old ones. He dcplored
the lack OF statues in the capital of the
nations poets.

Keokuk Due
For GroUth

indianapolis Sun: The population
OF Keokuk. Iowa, is due for rapid
growth some time next spring. The
why is Manager Queisser OF the keo-
kuk ball club He is signing players
right and left and alrea-y has forty
under contract.
It's pretty safe guess that the
majority of the recruits will have to
walk to Keokuk il they want tryout,
because the sum total of their trans
portation would scare any club owner
into hosting the white flag. Queisser
is from indianapolis and was just re-
Gently appointed to the Keokuk man
agement. He visited here short
time ago and made the announcement
that he intended signing number of
Indianapolis boys. He has made good
his assertion, as he now has four of
the local semi-pros under contract and
is dickering with two more, an in
fielder and pitcher. The players
signed from this city are Babe Reinert,
pitcher; Ray Ludwig and Burgelein,
outfielders,. and Summers. a catcher.
Reinert established good record in
the city league last summer and with
an old head to coach him should be
capable of sticking in the Central As
ISOLATION Burgelein is also from the
city league, while Ludwig and Sum-
mers are from outside independent
teams.

ir Middle Game He Had Nine Strikes
and Three spares-Grand Lead
ers Beat clothiers Three
Straights.
Standing of the Clubs.

The PIC 2-S average of Carroll Taber,
made last week on the keokuk Club
alleys, fell before the deadly shoot
ing of Harry King of the Drexel team
last evening, while pinning on the
same drives. King hung up mark
of 217 3d. which was a total OF just
three pins more than the previous rec
ord, and in addition set a second rec
ord by going the thirty frames without
a break, being the first time this has
been done during the present season.
King had one of the greatest series
ever rolled on Keokuk alleys and in
order to set the record he did it was
necessary for him to turkey IN the
last game as windup. The only
omen frame of the three games was
in the sixth of the first, when he drew
a split The best game of the series
was the second, when he sandwiched
in three spares among nine strikes for
a grand count of 24S Only three adj
ditional strikes would have been nee
essary for the perfect 300 count.
This is the first season King has
shown form that attracted attention.
He has practically lead the league this
year and the big average last night
will boost him up to a good margin
over the other players. King is for
mer member of the Keokuk Club and
Olympia teams
