C6x on hear about a pitchers con-
troll That's about the same

it means getting where you want to go,
or avoiding disaster, by controlling
yourself. You can do that only by
thinking, and when you think. think
straight. Some fellows think hard, but
crooked, They don't often win-and If
they do win they lose your good will
and their own self respect"
So says ChriSty Mathewson the
Giants famous twirler, in an article Of
advice to Boy Scouts. Mathewson SAYS
that he is afraid that too often the
average bOy-and the average man, too
plays the game just to win," and de-
clares that the big thing is not to win;
the big thing is to do your best and
doing your best means getting into
the game with your whole heart. No
matter what the game is, play it for all
there is in you and all there is in the
game"
Good Advice to Boys.
The great pitcher advises the boy
first to know himself--tO know his
physical and mental self-to know his
own weak points and strengthen them,
and his strong points and develop them
to the full. This, he says, will take

Things TO Remember

ALWAYS have the cake batter so it will
drop easily from the spoon, adding more
moisture if the amount called for by the
recipe doesn't make it soft enough: Cake
batter that is reasonably soft will become
much lighter.
Always use double-raise baking powder
to guard against cake falling, and to be
assured of a light fne-textured cake. K G
Baking Powder is a modern double raise
baking powder, always giving uniform
results. It is a baking powder with two
distinct raises, first when moisture is
added, and again when heat is applied.
This sustains the raising until the batter IS
cooked, when, Of course, it cannot fall.
Yolks and whites of eggs should be
beaten separately. Use rotary beater
for the yolks and flat or spoon whip for
the whites.
Never grease the sides of the cake tins.
Let the batter stick to the sides and cut it
loose with knife when baked. This keeps
the layers even. If the sides Of the pan are
creased, the cake will pull away, making
the top of the layer narrower than the
bottom, and making it impossible to stack
the layers evenly.
Bear in mind that baked dough cannot
rise. Always start baking with low flame
or moderate oven, and allow the cake tc
double in size before increasing the heat
then bake with a hot oven until the top is
brown, and the center responds to ths
touch.
To cut a cake when still warm or quite
fresh, dip the blade of the knife in hot o.
cold water and cut with the damp blade
This prevents the cake from sticking Il
the knife.
