Elsewhere this issue we published a
letter from Samuel C. Manley on the
encouragement of local baseball by i'm

not commend this suggestion too high
ly. The building up of clean sports
and the patronage of clean sports is
one Of the most effective methods of
building clean minds and clean bodies.
Good sports are conducive to good citi-
zenship and good morality. Active
sports are productive Of active bodies
and active minds. Live appreciation
Of these things by those who are only

with a will. Sport lovers as well az
those who take part in the game, will
approve Mr.. Manley's plan and appre-
