nifty pitches. Joe whirled through
yesterdays game in one hour and
twenty-five minutes. The Tiger lea a.
er has the ball back to the plate be-
fore the batsman is aware what -
happening. There is no chance fer
team work on the bases. and If they
do try TO pull something on him Toe
seems TO ~outguess them at every
angle.
Much Of Joe's success as a pitcher
has been due to his phenomenal
ability as a fielder. No team can
bunt on Joe. Repeatedly he has
thrown men out at second base on
attempted sacrifice hits. Manv
pitchers who have speed and curves
that make them unhittable sink like
a water-logged ship when the enemyz
starts TO bunt. because said pitchers
cannot uphold their end Of the field

who until few years ago we're accustomed to
read the Bible through once a year know
much concerning II. Like anything worth
knowing the Bible lends itself only to study
aud to thought II will not be the capture

be approached not only with reverence. but
with the effort at understanding. 1t must be

In Job. in Eccesiastes, In the poem of Ruth,
the Song of Solomon, the Psalms, in the trag-

with all the barbaric splendor and imagination
OF the tribal life, the wars, the Nomadc wan

Its treasures either to the daily chapter con-

the real ignorance concerning what the Bible

was painted Mayor Low was a man in early

This is, of course, fraud to speak, upon

former mayor of Brooklyn really looked. But
suppose the fashions as they have habit OF
doing change again. Are the painters once
more to be called In to keep the Low portrait
