the bases now, but he gets around in
a more sprightly manner every season
and he can get under foul balls with
the best of them now.
Earnest in his work. the Chief is
earnest in his play. His idea Of a
great little stunt on a rainy afternoon
is to search out the best art gallery
in whatever town he happens to be
and have a gay time roaming around
among the pictures an6 statuary. He
also devotes a good deal of spare
time to keeping in touch with Indian
affairs. He has studied his people
and their history and knows what he
is talking about.
One day in Cincinnati he asked two
newspaper men to go out to the Art
Museum with him We came upon a
bronze-an Indian turning to shoot an
arrow at his pursuers.
There's the idea" he said, point
ing to the warrior. "They never
learned how to fight. They had any
thing but the Willingness. If Tecum-
sen had been as big a man as Ma
poleon he would have killed off the
medicine men as his first official act,
learned the white mans style of war
fare-and there would have been an
Indian nation here to-day.
I don't mean that the white man
would not have been here, too. But
with a few leaders-real big men
our fathers would have come to see
that the white mans type Of Ciyiliza-
ton was the highest. Just as the Japs
have done. We would have had great

Still, there will always probably be
a few fans who will think II bright to
