Roy Scouts like KNIGHTS Of Old.

BOY Scouts Like Knights Of Old.
When good King Arthur ruled, boys
were trained for knighthood, says a
writer in the Christian Herald This
began when they were seven or eight
years Of age. Their first course was
when they gave seven or eight years
Of constant attendance end waiting
upon master and mistress. They
we're taught religion and morals snd
love by the chaplain. They wers
taught to walk as soldiers, and to ride
as brave hunters. They were accus-
toned to military exercises and attn
letic sports. They voluntarily suf-
fered heat and cold, hunger and thirst
fatigue and sleeplessness in order that
they might become hardened. When
between fifteen and sixteen years Of
age the pages" became "squires, " and
in the ordinary course of chiyalrous
education "knighthood" was reached
in early manhood There is much in
the Boy Scout movement of today that
reminds us of the training for knight
hood The solemn promise made by
Boy Scout at his initiation is II will
be a friend to every living creature,
man or beast, and a brother to every
other scout, fortunate or unfortunate,
rich or poor. ! will be courteous
to all"

Rut Loon IN Hat.

Women know what hard task 1t is
to hang up their hats. The Office girl
finds a new place every day for her
hat. It is on the desk, this shelf or
pinned on the wall with big hatpins.
"A new way. says the Los Angeles Ex-
press, is to take a piece of tape or
baby ribbon, make loop about four
inches long, sew it to the gathered
part of the lining Of your hat and
that's all. Hang up your hat by the
loop on the rack, nail or any available
place.

HIGH COST
OF BASEBALL
Advance in FOOdStuffS A Joke
Compared to Worlds
Series

While the cost of living has been
advancing by leaps and bounds dur
ing the past quarter of century, the
footstuffs have nothing on the worlds
baseball series during the same length
of time, according to the Kansas
City Star. The first titular series 70
be played was staged in 1884 between
the Providence and Metropolitan
teams, respective winners of the pen
nants in the National League and the
American Association. The games were
played in New York and the 'Provi-
dence team was the victor
In 1885 the Chicago club, led by
Spalding, and the St. Louis Browns,
under Won der Abe. played a series,
but the results we're unsatisfactory TO
both parties concerned. Seven games
we're played. each club winning three,
the first contest being an eieht-inning
5-to-5 tie.
What would the poor down-trod-
den ball-players of the present day
do with their splits" had they par
ticipated in the worlds series of 1885?
Then the immense sum of $1,000 was
hung up by Spalding and Won der
Ahe as the rich stake for which the
players battled. Compare this paltry
sum to receipts of the Red Sox-Giants
series OF last fall. In 1912 the play
ers divided $147,571.50. the members
of the winning club receiving a split
of $4024.6S each, and the losers 81
566.40. Each member of the losing
team in 1912, received two and half
times as much for his share as the
al 10
les.
Then again. in the early days, the
players did not have any lucrative Of
fers from the leading merchants OF
the country to lend their names to be
used in various kinds of advertise
ments. Neither was there any great
fight on among the leading newspa-
pers to sign the star players cf the
day to do the titular series for them.
Spalding's Guide of 1887 has the fol-
lowing to say in regard to the 1885
series:
when the match was arranged
Messrs. Spalding and Won der Abe
placed in the hands of the editor of
the Mirror of American Sports a writ
ten document to the effect that the
sum of $1,000 was to be paid to the
ord showed the contest to be a tie, by
the written directions of Messrs.
Spalding andeVon der Ahe,, the sum of
$500 each was, on October 2s, paid
to the Chicago and st. Louis clubs.
Had the series stood to. 2. ST.. Louis
would have received $500 and Chi
cago s40O, instead of $500 each. II
may be well to add there was not on
either side the slightest dispute or in
difference Of claim as to the equal di-
vision of the $1,000 on the basis of
tie"
The Guide. IN reviewing the series
between the Chicago and St. Louis
clubssin 1886. says: S
I'm 1886 a series of games for the
worlds championship was arranged
between the champion teams of the
