In his first game Doom wanted to
prove that in addition to being
catcher he was some thrower When
he heaved to second the baseman

ball: to third his pegs were low. and
his shoots to first nearly took the

PITY the Poor Duke,

Very little progress is being made by
the Duke of Westminster in his cam
paisn for funds to train a team Of
English athletes for the Olympic
games in Berlin.
The other day the duke must have
been somewhat elated to learn that a
committee OF army men had accepted
the Olympic principle and had decid-
ed to organize riding team for the
Olympic games. This was taken as
sign that the English were beginning
to see what the idea of the games is
and to give up the foolish notion that
there is anything professional in an
international test of style and vigor.
But right on top Of this came most
depressing piece of news from Cam
bridge. A special appeal drawn up and
signed by the captains Of the various
varsity teams was issued a Cam bridge
asking for contributions to the Olym-
pic fund, and the move gave consider
able satisfaction. Then it leaked out
that several of the captains VINO had
signed the appeal were Indifferent to
the result.

THE OLD YEARS FLIGHT.
l watched the old years flight
And then said. with a smile,
"Ah, now the new year bright
Will bide with US awhile!''
But ere my hopeful dreams
Have realized one day
Is dead and passed; it seems
1t starts but to decay.
Thus all along the way
Gravestones must mark the miles,
An epitaph each day,
A tomb of tears and smiles
So we begin the new
(Tis old ere we've begun)
To find it's aging, too,
With the first setting sun.
But twill not always be.
There'll come a living day.
And all~things new, and we
Shall live in endless May.
No gravestones then will mark
The tonbs where dead hopes lie,
No nights of sorrow dark
Creep Ger our changeless sky.
