who are making their living today by
playing baseball. How many of those
fellows are disconnected? Mighty
few. OF course, there always is some
sort of howl being made by ball
players who think they ought to get
more money. But let me tell you
right here and now-and don't forget
it in future, please there are more
overpaid ball players than underpaid
ones.
The ratio of discomfort among ball
players is less than that of any 9th
er trade or profession where some
men work for others. Take the news
paper business, the business of white
washing, bookkeeping, telegraphy
bricklaying, clerking, floor walking
and any other kind of business. Can
vass the men who work in those
trades professions. Ask every one
you meet if they are satisfied-and
ninety-nine per cent Of them vii
thunder at you-No" And there you
are.
Baseball is funny business. When
a man is a mere ball player he con-
tinually heckles his employer-he
wants more money and still more
He never is satisfied.
"And all the time he thinks the
manager and the magnate art tyrants
that they don't appreciate worth
and won't pay for faithful services
"Yet, when that very player be
comes a manager he is on the other
side of the fence. He then thinks the
manager and the magnate are abus-
ed. He fights just as hard to pre-
serve the bank balance of the club as
he did to get larger portion of il
when he was a player. And once
again-there you are.
"Those Federal Fellows-well,
wish I could say right now what
think of them. But 1 can't-there
being ladies present. They're gonna
be fooled-you bet they are. They
think there's lot Of money to be
made in baseball. There aint. Base
ball is a poor business unless you've
got topnotch club most of the
time. Many baseball club owners
lose money-basebal is a losing
proposition. What's that? Cuisines
of Sammy cupping his ear while the
audience quizzes-"Well, if it's a
losing proposition why do the mag
mates hang onto their clubs with a
dying clutch? Why are you in it?''
Why am l in baseball. you ask? Why?

came along, grabbed the seven and
didn't slip Sammy even a cigar. Hence
the hatred.
However, these are not Sammy's
only claims to fame. He has at
least one more. Sammy bears the
proud distinction of being the only
man since the world began who has

it is he has concealed on his person.

of the aforementioned distinctions.

The Meaninq of Palm Sunday.

Palm Sunday is recognized in the Roman Catholic church as the trium- phant entry of Christ into Jerusalem amid the hosannas of the people, for this day, the gospel tells us, ia very great multitude cut boughs from the trees and strewed them in the way, crying: "Hosanna, the son of David. Blessed is he that comes in the name Cl C1atthew at T xxi, 1s8. Nowadays peo- pie will be seen carrying the palm branches given to them in the churches to their homes, as the multitude of old applauded the triumph of the Redeem er The palm branches proclaim his victory over Satan.

An Easter MesSaqe,

You must live before you can be- lieve. If you would have a right to the tree of life, if you would have the right to know that there is a tree of life, you must seek this immortal life here, and seek it from the God who is here. and seek it through the channels that he opens for you.
 Live here and now the immortal life, and then, if you are mistaken and there is no life after the grave, still you will have been immortal.
 We must have the immortal life here and now if we would have a rational hope to have it hereafter. This is my Easter morning message to you.-Ly- man Abbott.

IN THE EYES OF THE CoNTRAnTo. A ERICH

 those little courtesies and attentions which usually play so delightful a part in newly welded life.
 Not that Stuart was discontented but his lack of appreciation of the, con tralto was caused by a lack; of thought no doubt. Manlike, he was selfish, though it must be said, of him that he had always proved what is, known as a good husband,'' in the commonly ac' cepted meaning of the term
 For the first time in. months; Stuart thought that perhaps he did not place sufficiently high value upon his wife when his attention was, attra cted to the other side of the chOir loft. Some thing unusual was, going. on there ap. parently.
 John Crayton and Marian Griffin were seated together and the soprano was so interested in. what Crayton was saying to her that she failed to note the gaze of the bassO.
 Marian had known. Crayton. for a number of years, but had never looked upon him as suitor.
 And now as she felt his breath upon her cheek, heard; his earnest words, his appeal for a, reply, she could only cast down her eyes until their long black lashes seemed to throw a shade over her face.
 The tenor seized her hand at the con clusion of his passionate entreaty ard was rewarded by a slight-a very slight pressure, which told him that he had not pleaded in vain
 Then it was that Stuart placed his great hand upon his wife's arm and, leaning toward her, whispered gently:
 ''My darling I realize now that I have been neglecting you. but l have not meant to. do SO; it was only that 1 didn't think
 In the. eyes, of the cOntraltO q bright love light burned, and she patted the hand of the big basso with a loving touch.
 The drOning of the minister suddenly ceased, and the rustling of the people below as they turned in the pews told that the sermon was at an end.
 The closing hymn was announced, and when it was finished the singers walked from the organ loft arm in arm, while Herr Steinbuch exclaimed petulantly:
 'Donnerwetter! The singers seem to be going to the dogs. That last hymn was given atrociously!' ...
 But then perhaps Herr Steinbuch was annoyed because he had been un- able to find 'The Decline of the Fugue'' in his Sunday newspaper Virginia Harmed in Philadelphia Press.

AN EASTER !. , II
 REUNION

HH IGH in the chNrgch amphithea- ter hung the choir loft, and at
 it's rail that bright Easter
 morning stood the church quartet.
 The organ pealed foRth the strains of the opening anthem-one of those divine compositions of Mozart which make the pulse of the righteous beat more quickly and cause the ungodly to think anew-and after it had been sung the singers took their seats, separat- ing, the two higher voices to the right, the two lower to the left side of the organ. Herr Steinbuch, the organist, retired behind the organ, drawing from his pocket as he did so a copy of a Sun day newspaper.
 He was musical editor of the sheet and hastily scanned its pages for an article, 'The Decline of the Fugue," which he had written the Friday pre- vious-toiling far into the night that it might be concluded in time for the is sue of Sunday.
 The pastor began his Easter sermon, but the singers paid small heed; each was busy with his or her own thoughts. In the eyes of Mateel Stuart, the con tralto, came a faraway look as she sat beside her giant husband, the basso.
 She was thinking that but three short years before she had gone from that church a bride, leaning proudly upon his arm.
 And now? Yes, she was happy, she reasoned, though her stalwart husband had, unconsciously perhaps, dropped

Church Etiouette For Easter.

Church etiquette for Easter Sunday, where the stranger is concerned, con- sists chiefly in doing nothing which would make one conspicuous or a nuisance to others. For the rest, a little genuine reverence is something that costs nothing and is always in keeping with taste. So if this has hitherto been lacking try listening with a new heart to the triumphant songs of this most joyous of all Sun days.

EASTER PLANTS.

e A little plant is an Easter ser : mon.
 It breaches more eloquently ? than many men.
 The life story of the plant is the life story of man. Endurance and patience are \ seen in the struggling seed.
 Buried in the black earth, it : patiently endures until the time of birth.
 The struggle of the plant
 pushing it's way from darkness [ to light is well rewarded. In the sunlight and air of the upper world the plant reaches
 higher growth and development. '. > The beauty of the blossom is symbolic of the beauty of the soul, which has overcome evil influences and radiates it's glory to all about. t

are assigned for the unfortunate at

slippery, as that stretch of road often
