seemed especially interested in tho
Madonnas and listened attentively to
her explanation of the meaning con.

When half a dozen Madonnas had
been shown he cried out excitedly:,
Here's another of them like we've
had before!"
The earnest young woman turned
with surprise. 'Why, did you really
recognize it," she questioned.
"Yep-yer en- spot 'em every time,"
was the prompt response.
Can you, truly?" she queried,
touched and pleased.
"Surest thing you know!" the small
critic replied.
The art missionary thought a mo-
ment, then said softly to him, "Yes,
you are right. You can distinguish
them from other pictures. There is a
tenderness. beauty, a sort of brood.

NO NEED TO GIVE UP GAMES
Men Of Middle Age Will Feel Better
II They oecasionaily Indulge In
Favorite Pastimes.

The age at which men find them.

ness or the cares Of life or by phys.
ical inlirmity to give up their favorite
game is advancing, says the Youths
Companion. Once upon a time games
were almost exclusively for those
who were still in school or in college.
When boy took up what was de-
pressingly referred to as 'the serious
business Of life" he was expected to
abandon the frivolous point of view
that playing games was supposed to
denote. The boys Of that period are

at the game of golf or spending fire.
quent afternoons as spectators of pro-
fessional ball games.
Having found out for themselves
that such early deprivation is . mis-
uake, they do not impose 1t on their
sons. 1nnumerable Americans are
nearing middle age who are almost &C
active on the tennis courts or on the
golf links as In the days of their
youth. Football, of course, they have
had to give up; It cannot be played
as the casual recreation Of busy
man. To baseball some men cling.
although with difficulty; it requires q
larger number Of players than 10
readily available. Yet. on holiday oc-
casiens. when middle aged men long
out of practise engage in baseball.
there will always be fair proportion
Of them who show that they retain
much Of their juvenile skill and alert
ness. They do not slide to bases, but
they field the ball clearly and bat
vigorously, and not only feel them
selves, but make the observers be-
lieve that with little practise they
could, in the vernacular. come back"
The giving up Of games should be
10 gradual. so voluntary. that 1t in
wolves no sense of loss or of sacrifice.
Generally speaking, so long as man
has an impulse and desire to play
q game he will be the better for
yielding to 1t. That is the wisdom
that the new generation has learned.

LORD mayors New "son."


A new duty Of great London's lord
mayor is apparently that of adopting
ambitious black boys. At a dinner
recently, Sir Thomas vansittart Bo-
water told the gathering that he had
received a letter from Nigeria, pre-.
sumably written by q black boy,
which begins. my lord" and finishes
with, "Your affectionate SON."
The lord mayor added. Il have
never been to Nigeria, and l have
never shipped any relatives out. The
little boy in his letter went on to say
that IL would only adopt him he
knew I should make a very good ia
ther, and he would be q very good
son. He was particularly anxious to
come over to this country to be
either doctor or a solicitor, and II
I would only send him out the money
he would be able to come. That IL

parently is expected to do during his

One hundred years ago Louis XVIII,

NORTHERN TEAMS
ON HOME STRETCH.
Duluth and Winnipeg Fight
for First and Grand Forks
and Winona For First.
LATTER BATTLE
WILL BE HARD
Two Teams Fight it Out To-
gether-Flickertails have
Big Order to Fill.

Northern league teams enter the
home stretch tomorrow.
Omitting postponed games, there
are eight scheduled contests to be
played off, NJ considering the first
division situation, every n will be
warmly fought.
Duluth and Winnipeg are in a death
grapple for first place, and Grand
Forks and Winona are fighting neck
and neck for third berth. The latter
fight differs from the Duluth-Winni-
peg scrap, in that the Flickertails and
Highhrows battle it out against each
other.
The White Sox and Maroons do not
meet each other again. and so all they
have to do Is to hope hat the other
fellow will lose.
The Winona-Grand Forks series will
be a hard one. There are eight sched-
uled and one postponed game. Wi
ona has a little the edge on the To-
calls. for five of the games are to be-
played on the home grounds.
Considering that both teams win
today, Grand Forks will have to take
six out Of the nine games to carry
off the third place honors. If Winona
loses today and the locals win. the
fight will be a little easier, but il
Winona wins and the locals lose, it
will be considerably harder.
The second division fight is prac-
tically decided. VIRGINIA will be
champion of hat section. Fargo
Moorhead second. Superior third and
Fort William fourth.
