How Connie" Mack Handle. Men

How Connie" Mack Handles Men
In the June American Magazine
Eddie" Collins, second baseman for the
Philadelphia Athletics, writes remark
ably interesting article describing his
baseball adventures during the past
seven years under the management Of
Connie Mack, who is probably the
the greatest baseball general in
world. In the following extract from his
article, Collins tells story in which he
gives an insight into Mack's methods of
handling men:
Down South Mack shows attention
to young pitchers but not the slightest To
his veterans. Indeed he generally lets the
veterans take care OF Themselves. This
is especially apparent around World
Series time. Last fall be left rs absolutely
to condition ourselves. He kept the
regular team intact until the last ten DAYS
OF the American League season. We left
for Boston on a Tuesday night but Plank
and Bender were left behind. Mack told
them in plain words that the burden NJ
defeating the New York Giants was on
them.
lyon fellows have learned 10 know
how TO take care Of yourselves. hc told
them. You know best how to prepare
yourself for the strain Of a World Series
Now you don't have ~ come with the
team on this trip. have decided to give
you ten DAYS 10 get in condition for New
York. You are at liberty TO use your
time in any way you want, only show
up ft.
Bender selected q course that took
him to the ball park every day. lie
spent bic time pitching and in Jogging
around Shibe Park. lie remained IN
Philadelphia and kept his mind right ON
t1e game.
"PIank, on the other hand, went ont
70 bis farm in Gettysburg, remained
there week and forgot baseball entirely.
Long walks and exercise in the open kent
him in shape. Tic lid not pitch a single
baseball during those entire ten days
suppose some manager, not at wise AZ
Mack, had laid down arbitrary training
rules for these two men2 Asit was fine
wisdom Of Mack's action is yindicatod
by what happened in the World Series.
Plank and Bender never pitched better"

1t is true that nature and woman
work has produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia f. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave TO womankind
remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM
pounded, and today Lydia T.. Pinkham' s
Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds Of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health - many of them openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound;
and in some cases that il has saved them
from surgical operations.
