1t was, as he said, that there is always
something away down In the soul OF
every woman which some time or an
other draws her mate to her.
He got down to the causes OF the
caustic temper of Beauty when he
first met her, and learned that her soul
was asleep because there had been no
love in all her life to awaken it. So
when they we're married he Just loved
her He made his home the most
radiant place Beauty had ever seen in
all her young life through the tender
ness of his smile, and the gentleness
of his presence. He helped her make
| a garden in which the flowers seemed
only to need his touch to make them
grow more luxuriously than in any
other garden she had ever seen, and
| the young wife was happy because she
spent most of her hours in the garden,
either working among the flowers or
listening to the resonant voice of The
Second Man as he read to her from
some old and wonderful volume, of
which he had hundreds.

BEAUTY

When Older Brother first called her
Beauty the whole family laughed.
That was rare compliment to Older
Brothers wit, for the family was one
seldom given to mirth. But when they |
looked from the thin, pinched little |
face, with Its buttermilk expression,
down the angular young body to the
too long legs, and back again to the
stragsly hair the nickname created for
the girl by Older Brother was so in
congruous that even Mother, who had
never wanted any one of her six chill
dren Qeast OF all Beauty could not
help laughing outright. Naturally
Older Brother was much pleased with
himself and saw to it that the name
chung to the little girl all through the
days of her childhood.
The years that came and went made
Beauty no less misnomer, for the
| girls face grew smaller and more
| pinched and more sour with every one
| OF them. The youngest and least well
come OF all the unwelcome six at
home she was always pushed aside to
shuttle for herself as best she might,
getting but the frazzled end OF every
{better. Other children called her
Beauty and roared with laughter until
the girl designated by the name al
ways skunk unhappily away to some
, far corner where no one would find
and taunt her.
So Beauty grew up for all the worlt
like an unloyely, scraggly little weet
crowded in among harder plants whicl
y never gave her room to thrive and b
: healthy.
' When The First Man met her, an
heard someone call her Beauty he TO

DUTCH Generally con-
cedec TO be the best southpaw in the
game. Came to Boston several years
ago and always has been a brilliant
performer. Hung up the best record
in the American League last year for
effectiveness, as he allowed only one
and fraction runs per game. Has
been one of Carrigan's most depend
able pitchers this season. finishing
with an average Of over 700. Some
critics have selected Leonard as the
man 10 face Alexander in the opener.
although the majority favor Shore.
GEORGE FOSTER-One OF the
smallest and most effective pitchers
in the American League this season.
Much of the Red Sox success this sea-
son has been due to this diminutive
mound man. He has worked in thirty
odd games. Of which he has won
twenty Practically certain he will
face the Phils in one or more OF the
battles.
ERNIE SHORE-One of the latest
pitching finds. and a good one Shore
came up from the old Baltimore club
when Jack Dunn sold out, and won a
regular berth right away He has
been one Of Carrlgan's premier pitch
ers this season, and is favored in
some quarters to pitch the opener.
This year he won about 90 games.
His 10 defeat OF Detroit in that 12
inning tussle in which the Red Sox
really won the pennant will long be
remembered.
BABE RUTH-Like the three other
Boston pitchers, Ruth has been one
of the most successful chuckers In
the league this season. 700 work
man. Ruth is a left handler, and be-
sides being a pitcher OF far more
than ordinary ability. he has the dis
tinction Of being the best batter
among the pitchers in the league. He
hit above .32O this season.
RAY COLLINS Collins has had a
varied career-last year he won a lot
OF games and was rated one Of the
best chuckers in the circuit, but has
fallen down this season. He has
worked In only few games, splitting
about even.
VEAN GREGG Gregg is veteran

catchers, Of whom Cady is as goot
as any and somewhat better at bat
ting. He slugged this year aroun'
245.
