GREATEST OF SPORTS
GOOD REASONS FOR THE PoPu.
LARlTY OF BASEBALL.
Men Love 1t for the Opportunities lt
Gives Them to D!sport in the
LIn1eileht, and Young Women
Just pote on e.

Baseball is the most dangerous
game known to history. When 1t
comes to mortality lists, baseball
leaves football a lap behind in a six
furlong race on mile track. Stats
ticians have figured it out that it is
40 times as destructive to human life
as Mexican revolution. and almost
as deadly as Mexican chill. Annual
ly it kills off so many aunts, uncles
and grandparents that thinking peo-
pie wonder how the undertakers can
stand the steady work. For example,
in the course of one thrilling pennant
race. our Office boy lost seven grand
mothers.
For all that, we love baseball. Even
in spite Of the grand-stand humorist,
we love it. 1t is our national game.
We feel that, since this country was
to give US baseball, our Revolutionary
sfres did not bleed and die in vain.
Men have much reason to love bass
ball. 1t gives them the chance to ad-
n1ire skill, speed. strength, nerve,
courage and determination, and to
learn the latest slang and most pep
full repartee. 1t gives them the
chance to boldly abuse and insult
other men without fear of conse.
quences and to exhibit their wit be-
fore large crowds. It gives them the
chance to set up real heroes and bow
down to them. Statesmen are cor
rupt. generals fight from their tents.
literary lions are pale, weak bodies.
But baseball heroes are real heroes.
And t--baseball-also gives men the
opportunity to be as loud and silly
and toyously unrepressed as they
want to be. without being laughed at.
Young women like baseball, too, and
some Of them understand It remark
ably well. Some of them are said to
Lnow the difference between the
pitcher and the umpire. There is a
legend that once there was young
woman who could watch whole
game without asking: What are
they doing now" and tell which side
won at the end. But that is believed
to have been written by Grimm.
Young women do not care so much
for baseball If they have to buy their
own tickets. But if you suggest tax.
ing one. she just dotes on the game.
A woman always gets some enjoy
ment out of seeing her escort spend
money for her, no matter what it Is
for.
It Is not always wise to take a
young woman to the ball game. no
matter how she dotes on it. She may
not notice the difference when they
stop batting up flies and begin the
game. She may think the pitcher
and catcher are playing against each
other, and complain because one Of
them does not quit and give that cute
fellow with such jaunty air turn.
She may mistake the catcher 6 breast
protector for porous plaster. But
she will notice. with an ever-growing
admiration, the grace, sureness and
swiftness Of the well.conditioned men
on the field. After which she is like
