Boston, the Frenchman was not
a successful pitcher. Since chang

he has gone back. If anything,
he is stronger than ever. Gala
han has been resting his red
necked finger, printing him for
this series. Walsh will be able to
pitch three of the games without
turning hair. Unquestionably
he will start the first game on the
mound for the Sox.

White beat the Cubs in the last
internecine war, but this season
he has been troubled with rheu-
matism.
LANCE has pitched two good
games this year. His showing
against St. Louis in the two
games he worked last week does
not hold much encouragement
for South Side fans.
Benz is not seriously consider
ed, though he may surprise the
wise ones. The Batesville Butch
er started the season like whirl-
wind, beating every, team he
stacked up against Lately, how
ever, he has been hit hard.
In Larry Cheney the Cubs have
pitcher who is nearly the equal
of Walsh. In his own league he
has won "a games and lost 9, for
a percentage of TIT, just II
points behind Tesreau, who leads
the league, The Giant has partic-
ipated in little over half as many
battles as Cheney. Larry worked
only one inning against the Sox
last year, so there is no definite
data on how effective he will be
when opposed to the American
league team. He will be the first
choice in the opening game, and
should give Walsh the fight of his
life.
Lew Richie, effective against
the Giants, should show we'll
against Callahan's band. He

yaucement has been marvellous in the last
decade but a growth much more marvellous
awaits the touch of in telligent hands.
Marvellous as the de veIOpment has been,
however, only few citizens have he
knowledge to appreciate it at its full value.
The great majority of the people Of Nebraska
do not know that the state eXcels in many
lines of productivity. Other states with FAR
less ADVANTAGES have been exploited to our
detriment taking the cream of our citizens
and with them hundreds of thousands OF dol
lars that were made here and that right
fully should be employed here in the further
development of the state
When once the people of Nebraska catch a
vision of what the ex penditure of effort and
money will do for the state will enter
upon an era of unpar alleed pr sperlty :.
There is easily room for double treble the
population we now have. Once our citizens
are aroused to the opportunities that are
scattered about our dooryards and proceed to
take advantage of them the results will be
so gratifying that HON e-seekers from other
states will be attracted by the splendid possi-
bties.
The Architect of the universe treated Ne
braska with lavish generosity when He gave
her it's soil climate, streams praries, hills
and valleys and it is high time we came to
know something of their real beauty and
richness A campaign of education calculated
to teach our own people what they now
have and what they can have by claiming 1t
is necessary to bring the state into IFS own.
