have been paired if this result is OBJ
tanned. Reference to Fig. 3 indicates
the result if the right strands are not
/ aired.
1t will be roted that strand five has
been unlaid, but that strand siy does
not fall directly into the space left, as
strand Of the main rope lies between
them. When this result is obtained a
new beginning with different pairing of
strands should be made. 1t the results
are as those indicated in Fig. 2 pro-
ceed with the splicing by unlaying
strand one turn at time and twist
ing and laying strand two in its place.
Repeat this until all but about eight
inches of s,rand two as been laid up.
Cut strand one off the same length as
strand two and bring it inside the lat
ter. Tie an overland knot with the
| two strands. Untwist the strands lit
tie and work the knot down, until the
place is practically no larger than the
main rope.
[ Work With Body Of Rope.
This process should be repeated with
strands five and six. Strands three and
four should now be cut off to about
eight inches long and tied. The correct
way of tying these knots is clearly in
dicated in Fig. 4.
Each strand should now be spliced or
worked into the body Of the rope. Pro
ceed to do this by taking strand six
over strand seven and under strand eight
as has been done in Fig. 5. The latter
strand should be raised by untwisting
it. A pointed hard wood stick made
smooth and tapering, will greatly aid
in the splicing process. After passing
strand six under strand eight, the form
er should be loosened by untwisting it
a little and then pulling it down snug
lily. This should leave tho place where
lit passes over strand seven a little larg-
er than it was before. Remove one of
the cords from the lower side Of strand
six by cutting it off I to s-inch from
strand eight. This short end should bt
securely tucked under strand nine. Con
ltinus to splice strand il by passing il
over strand nine and under ten, remove
Ia cord as before, bury the short end
under the strand to be passed over
next, and repeat until strand six has
passed under strand Of Che rope five

EVERY farmer should be able to
= splice his own ropes. This would
save much time when time means
money. 1t would also save the money
value Of ropes that are primarily dis
carded whcn broken.
Tho long splice only will be consid-
cred in this article, as it is used where
the spliced rope passes through pull
ley block. IT, however, the rope should
break in a place which does not pass
through the pulley it may be temporar-.
lily remedied by tying an overland
knot in an end Of the rope. Pass the
other end through this knot and tie
an overland knot in its end so as to1
include the first end The knots are
until they meet.
The first step in making a long
splice Is 70 unlay the strands some
distance from the end Of the rope. The
amount of rope to unlay depends on its
size and the number of strands. Each
end of three-strand half-inch rope
should be unlaid two feet. INLAY six
inches more for each one-quarter inch
increase in size over one half inch. A
four-strand rope should DO unlaid eight
inches more for each size than a three
strand rope. 1t will then be seen that
a three strand half-inch rope will be
four feet shorter, and four strand,
one half inch rope will be five and one
third feet shorter, after being spliced.
Interlay Strands,
After unlaying the strands they
should be arranged on each end of the
rope in such way that one strand does
not pass over between the other strands
in the same end Of the rope. Proceed
to bring the two ends o. the rope to-
gether interlacing the strands by put
ting a strand from one end between
two strands of the other end. The
two ends should be placed firmly to-
gether. BY referring to figure ! it
will be noted that strand from one
end is paired with strand from the
other end. The strands making these
pairs should not be selected at random.
AS the rope is held in front Of the
operator cne-half of the strands pro-
iect to the left and the other half to
the right. With the rope held so that
two strands are on top take one that
passes to the right inside Of one that
passes to the left and twist |. around
the latter as indicated. Turn the rope
and twist all but one pair together
This will. keep the strands out Of the
way and will hold the ends Of the rope
together.
Either Of the remaining strands may
now be taken and unlaid one full turn
around the rope Take the other strand
twist it up firmly between the thumb
and forefngcr Of the right hand and
Law it in place Of the one unlaid. Un
Law strand one another turn and repeat
the twisting and laying process with
strand two.

It is best not to unlay strand one any
further until sure that the right strands
have been paired. This may be deter
mined after unlaying strand five ant
laying strand six in its place by th'
method just given. By referring tt

SIDE LIGHTS ON
THE WORLDS SERIES
GREAT CONTRAST BETWEEN
MACK AND sTALLINGs, Man
Ayers OF THE RIVAL
TEAMS
DAILY Sport Letter, I. y. 81
BY FRANK g. al!BNKE


What a strange contrast is furn-
ished by comparison of Connie
Mack and George staiIings, the two
men who viii lead the rival teams
into the battle for the highest honors
in baseball. How different are their
temperaments, their ways and their
methods!
Connie Mack. gentle. soft.voiced
and fatherly in mis- attitude toward
his players, never has been known to
speak an unkind word TO them on or
OF the ball field. stallings a human
dynamo, with a. tongue Ike lash,
rarely permits his men to go thru a
game without cussing them to the
full limit of his wonderful vocabn-
larry.
Stallings has the theory that only
by driving his players every moment
during the game are results accomp-
lished From the moment that play
BALI rings across the field until the
last man is out in the ninth, Stallings
continues to apply the lash. When
on the field, every error that one OF
his players makes that is of an mex.
cusable nature brings forth caustic
and immediate reprimand from the
great leader Of the Boston team.
Stallings applies his verbal abuse
to stars and mediocre players alike.
He spares none. And the strangest
part OF it al, Stall.ngs abuse of his
players never has caused them to
feel toward him, for when the game
is over stA1iings changes front. He
is the pal. the brother of each of his
players.
StalEngs never rebukes a player
twice for the same error. He doesn
dig into the past-doesn't bring up
old scores. When he has panned a
player once for some bIunder it's the
end of it, Stallings has spoken his
piece has relieved his feelings and
the incident is closed.
Every man on the Boston team has
come to love Stallings. And not one
man on the whole team has escaped
a tongue-lash.ng from Stallings
not one has escaped a call-down,
couched in scorehing language.
The Boston players understand

stallings They know that his con-
duct toward them on the bali field Is
caused only thru his frenzied ambi-
ton to win. They have come %
take his rebukes without experien,-
ing any bitterness Of feeling there
after
Stallings is driyer--even a hard
.er driver than McGraw, who held the
driving honors until this year. Stall
lings is after his men every minute.
nothing escapes his eye. If one Or
his men makes bone play Stall
l:ngs meets him as he approaches the
bench and that player is certain to
get his without delay.
But Stallings is just as ready with
his praise for a good play as he i
with abuse for bad one. Ii one of
his men makes brilliant catch or
throw or smashes out long hit that
aids the Braves chances for yictorJ,
Stallings rushes out from the bench
to meet him as he comes in and vel
comes him with all the enthusiasm
In his system.
Mack, in contrast, is at all times
the most inconspicuous man on the
Athletic bench. He is ever calm and
quiet. No matter how great a
blunder his players may have made,
no matter how poorly they play,
Mack never has word of condemna-
ton. And when one or another OF
his men make some brilliant play.
Macks feelings never run riot. He
may greet the player with a smile, a
pat on the back or a Fine work,
boy" but that usually is the extent of
his greeting. No Athletic players
are ever greeted with few bear
hugs, a dozen terrific slaps on the
back AMI lengthy speech of praise
as are the Braves when they do some
great work.
Mack was born in Brookfeld,
Mass, in 1862. He began his baseball
career wit hthe Meridian. Conn. club
1884. He played with Hartford
Conn, in 1885 and 1886, with
in 1887, 1888 and 1889
and with Buffalo in 1890. From
1891 to 1896 he played with the
Pittsburg team, managing that club
from August, 1894, to 1896. From
1897 $4,000 he managed the Mil
waukee club in the Western League.
In 1901 he went to Philadelphia and
organized the Athletics. He has
been there since. He owns half Of
the stock in the club.
Mack won the American League
in 1902, 1905. 1910,
1871 L.. 1913 and 1914 He has won
the worlds series in 1910, 1911 and
1913.
Stallings was born in Haddock,
Ca, in 1869. He never made any
great record as a PLAYER, but as a
he has wonderful record.
