THE BASEBALL UMPIRE
HE MUST BE A MAN WHO is ABLE TO
"STAND The CAFE"

Even this early in the baseball seas
on one Of the National League umpires
has resigned because during a practice
game in the preliminary trying out"
OF the New York team, his decisions
were questioned by the players.
The personnel of the staff of arbiters
of the national game" is of the vi,
most concern not only to the players,
to whom faulty decisions are a serious
bread-and-butter matter, but to the
'bleacherites,' who are prone to think
that they know better than the masked
man who stands behind the pitcher.
Indeed the onlookers seem sometimes
as hungry and thirsty for the officials
assassination as any crowd in the Col
iseum In the palmiest days of Rome,
clamoring for thumbs down" and the
death sentence upon a gladiator who
showed the white feather.
The umpire, in the vernacular of
the day, must be man able to stand
the gaff." He must have the courage
of his decisions. He must stand by
what he says and enforce his pro-
nouncement firmly with the penalty
Nowhere is it more true than on the
diamond that "he who hesitates IS
lost" No wonder that retired umpires
have generally been successful in bus
mess. The man who can keep his head
in the midst of a bowling crowd Of
fans" and not become completely UNI
nerved by the taunts-or more tangible
things-hurled at him through the sur
charged atmosphere must have in the
stalwart fibre of his being most of the
qualities that make for success.
The umpire has truly no enviable
task. Partisanship on the ball field
sometimes quite overrules the sense of
fairness and decency characteristic Of
the average American. The crowd is
sometimes so eager for the home team
to win that it adversely criticises every
decision in favor of the visiting play
ers, The umpire who listens to the
voices of the grandstand pro and con,
is unfit for his occupation, yet it is
hard indeed for mortal flesh and blood
to be indifferent and coldly neutral IN
the crucial inning of holly contested
game.-Philadelphia Ledger.

THE CROPS IN SUMTER
THE finest IN YEARS
Tax Receiver ]. 7. Howell
Tells About Them

Tax Receiver John T. Howell has
inst completed a tour of Sumter coun-
t. in connection with his official du-
ties AMI is enthusiastic over the crop
p""pect generally. Mr.. Howell has
bten & farmer all of his life, and con-
sequently, is an excellent authority
when it comes to estimating such Il
crop as is now growing here.
Since entering upon the duties
of tax receiver, l have seen the crops
of the different portions of the county
and l think them the best have ever
seen in the county at this date" he
said yesterday.
I'm the first place, the preparation
Of the land generally was better than
usual; the seasons have been excep-
T tiOnally good for farm work, and the
farmers seem to have more get up and
get about them. than heretofore.
Generally there is a fine crop of
oats now made. have seen some good
fields of wheat now ripening for the
harvest, and the vegetable gardens
are unsurpassed in number and quail
ty The stands of corn and cotton
are good and look healthy, and are
growing finely There have been no
heavy, packing rains.
A man can do more and better work
than he could do ordinarily, and the
farmers can have their cotton chopped
with much less outlay of money
Upon the whole I consider the
prospects for good crops very flatter-
ing, and it is to be hoped that the
farmers will reap a rich harvest, for it
is by and through them the future
wealth of the country depends"
And Mr. Howell's opinion Is that of
all others who have seen Sumter's fine
crops recently.

THE VALUE OF IDEALS.

What We make of ourselves depends
upon the ideals which we habitually
hold Our lives are shaped upon our
mental models. If these be high, the
life is lofty; if low, it grovels Man
is no better than his ideals The
stream can not rise higher than its
source. Our work can never Overtop
our ideal, our ambition. 1t is a great
thing to keep the constant suggestion
of high ideals, of things that are grand
and noble in human achievement, 4
the mind 1t tends to make US love
the right and hate the wrong.
There is one thing We ought to hold
in such sacredness that No cons-dera-
ton could induce US to dilute il, and
hat is the quality of the life, the quail,
ity of our ideals. Whatever else we
are careless about. We can not afford
to carry through life low ideals, sec
ond class personalities or demoraliz-
ed mentalities However, humble our
homes or ordinary environment, We
should keep the quality of the life
the personality, at the highest posi-
bic Standard We should allow moth
ing to deteriorate it.
Yet most people are careless and in
different regarding the quality of their
lives. There is a slipshodness in their
living, a slovenliness in their mentality
which tend to deteriorate the quality OF
the life and make it cheap and com
mon-place.
Whatever your career, guard youI
ideal as the apple of your eye, the
pearl of great price; for everything
depends upon the direction in which
that points. II it points downward
no amount of money or influence can
redeem you from mediorcrity, or even
save you from a degraded life. Man
is so made that he must follow his
ideal He can not go up if his
ideal points down.-Orison SWEET Mar
den in Success" Magazine

The air is full OF melody these spring

Birds. in their songs, are voicing the
joy of life, and flowers are everywhere
