WHY THEY'RE FIGHTING.

This is why" says DR.. Cushman A.
Herrick, president of Girard College:
Germany is fighting for her very
existence; France that she might wipe
out the defeats Of the past; England,
that she might maintain her supremacy
gained at Waterloo; Russia, because
she sees an opportunity; Austria, that
she might have seaport; while Swift
zerland through it all remains a little
armed camp that has modified half a
million soldiers to preserve her neu-
trality."
And Belgium because her neutrality
was violated.

evening. The East Side collegians failed

"You are hound TO make a slip-up now
and then. and IL you do boot one or
two. don't let that fact rattle you. Go
at the next chance with the same con-
idence and You will pull through all
right"
Felt Sure of His Job.
That Is what Barry did. He enteved
the game on the day following with the
firm conviction that he could hold down
the job, he realized that an error
or two would not prove fatal to his
chances. He felt that Mack was a man
who possessed wonderful judgment as
well as patience. and tina: he would never
have thought of starting him In the vet
GRAMS position unless he knew he had
the goods. - -. .
The knowledge that Mack thought so
well of his capabilities was just the slim
illus that the young collegian needed TO
20 IN and acquit himself with credit He
won his spurs that day, and ever since
then he has been not only the regular
shortstop Of the Philadelphia Athletics
but rated as among the very topnotchers
in his position In either league.
Work Became Talk of Country.
Within a very short space of time the
playing of Barry at short became the
talk OF the country. The year before
last he was unqualifedly the premier
shortstop of the American League, and
he gave the partisan New York Giants
supporters a specimen of his class when
the Mackmen administered that sound
drubbing to. the McGrawites in the
worlds series.
Shortly after the first winning OF the
worlds championship Barry became en-
gagged to a Miss McDonough, OF Wor-
cester. After winning the second world S
championship and rakng in his share of
the considerable proceeds he went to
Worcester, deserted the bachelor band
and took up his residence in the Heart
OF the Commonwealth
Half Owner of Prosperous Garage.
Like many others of those who have
adopted the national game as n pro-
fession, Barry car foresee-the time when
his usefulness on the diamond will cease.
and for this reason he has engaged in a
business which is already yielding him
generous revenue. A year ago he pur-
chased a half-Interest in the Warren
garage at Worcester, and so fortunate

Gently the concern branched out and Sc

business goes. Barry could retire from

tipping of the batter. he resolved to
take a desperate chance and steal He
pulled this stunt of successfully. and
when, with two men down. he ran from
second like deer and scored on a short
single to center. he knew that he had
met with Comics approval although the
wise old leader did not say anything
just then.
Got Chance ms Pinch Hitter.
Not for a few days did Barry get an
other chance to get into the hmelight.
but. as on the previous occasion, 1t came
to him Unexpectedly.
Nichols had been having bad bat
ting slump and fielding rather indiffer-
entity as well. Ip the seventh inning one
day. while the White Sox were playing
at Shibe Park and Ed, Walsh pitching,
Barry was sent in to bit for Nichols,
and, much to his own astonishment as
well as that of Mack and the entire
Athletic field. he drove out a screaming
single that played an important part in
the game. So
He went in to finish the game at~short-
stop, also. AMI before the extra-inning
contest was settled managed to. secure
another safe clout of the big Chicago
spitball finger. Jack rather expected
that he would be sent in on the day fol-
lowing. but mucn 10 his disappointment.
Nichols was back on his old job as
usual -.... .
Made Haste slowly.
There was a reason for Connie Mack S
unwillingness to send Barry in right
away He wished the youngster to get
plenty Of confidence before he started
him in at the beginning Of a hard game.
Connie figured, too. that Barry's ex-
perience az a base-runner and afterwards
as 4 pinch hitter were merely lessons
that the newcomer could well AFFORD
to learn, and that the longer he watched
from the bench the more he could OBJ
serve and the more anxious he would be
to secure a place in the lineup.
But the day at length arrived when
Mack decided that 1t was up to Barry
to get in there" Nichols was slowing
up gradually, and the knowledge, per-
haps, that the management was groom
ing a youngster to take his place aided
in sending. him down hill. Finally, on
the eve of very important series. Mack
called Barry one side and said:
Look here. Jack, I'm going to send
you In to play short tomorrow. II lies
with yourself whether YOU. stay there
or not You've had experience enough.
yau are familiar with the signals and
team-play of the others, and l expect
you to make good.
