#HUGGINS OF ST. LOUIS IS DAVID HARUM OF
 NATIONAL LEAGUE

When Miller Huggins,s whose Car dinals own St. Louis just now, let Konetchy and Mowrey go to the Pi- rates in exchange for five players last winter, he was a target for severe criticism, while Fred Clarke was praised to the skies by Smoky City critics and fans. Higgins obtained in this famous trade Jack Miller Chief Wilson, Arthur Butler Al Do- Ian and Rube Robinson These men were looked upon las baseball lem ons' not only in Pittsburg but also in St. Louis.
 The Mound City orac1es, therefore announced that the Cardinals would bring up the rear of the National League procession. But Higgins has the laugh on everybody, His team is in third place, while the Pirates are submerged in the second division. Miller is playing better ball in every respect than Konetchy, Butler is a star shortstop, Chief Wilson still knows how to hit the ball and DoIan has developed into a splendid out fielder.

ANCIENTS KNEW OF GLAZING
Proof That Early Inhabitants Of Mex
leo Used Process In the Manu-
fzcture Of Pottery.

The discovery by Henry c. Mercer
of Daylestown, Pa, that the ancient
inhabitants of Mexico used glazing
process in the manufacture of their
pottery has revolutionized the views
of ceramic experts at the University
Of Pennsylvania, and may lead, says
American Art News, to the discovery
OF beds of clay suitable for use today.
Mr.. Mercer, who is an expert on til
ing and former curator of the Uni
versity museum, during recent study
of Mexican potteries at the museum
had his attention called TO the yari-
ance in workmanship in certain col
lections. He promptly classified the
potteries as possessing two different
kinds of clay, and was surprised tc
find that a distinct glaze was still ap
parent.
The ancient Egyptians. says Mr.
Mercer, did not glaze their works. the
Chinese adopting this precaution at {
later date to make their vessels i'm
pervious to water. Civilization haC
been established by this time, how
ever and the use of the glazing ar
by prehistoric Mexicans may UNFOLD
