forward onto the forepart of the
feet, but is kept evenly on them. p
The arms are not held stifhy, but
slightly relaxed at the elbows; no
stiffness or restraint must be felt in
any part of the body; all must be
supple and ready to respond to every
motion made in swinging the club.
Do not try to get the weight onto
the right foot, or the left. Let them
carry the weight as it will naturally
adjust itself. You will then find
yourself in the position illustrated
with the right shoulder lower than
the left, due to the right hand being
lower on the shaft than the left,
just so much and no more.
@ There will be no effort to get the
right shoulder down, nor will there
be any cTouching. Everything will
be, natural and easy, is every part
OF the golf stroke. as have analysed
it. - -.....
1t is the very naturalness of the
way these men approach the matter
which gives them their ability to ap-
ply power to the stroke and do every
thing in its natural order, without
conscious effort-dutOmGtiedtly, so far
as the body is concerned. .
The hands will be slightly to the
left of the center of the body, to al
low the face of the club to be held
at right angles to the line of play.
There is sound reason, in fact two
principal reasons, for placing the feet
in this position. and not square to
the line across the feet, with both
toes touching it and with the ball
midway between.
First, it minimizes the necessary
departure Of the club head from the
line of fight in going back and
around the body, but more especially,
it induces, in fact starts, the body
twist" without which very little pow
er can be put into the stroke. All
the great players insist on this twist
of the body, lay great stress on II.

player on the johnson circuit. II

please notify the Georgia peach. Last
year, Owen Bush, who eavorts around
the short field in Fordville. was the
leader in this department, but evi.

Boston has played many games on
Shibe Field while the Quakers would
be going into strange territory. One
of the reasons why the ouakers would
like to remain at the National League
Park Is that they have two or three
heavy hitters who have the range on
the short fences. and cravath would
be at q disadvantage at Shibe Field
Forty thousand people viii want to
see the Phillles play IN the big series.
Only half that number can crowd into

he will shut out 10000 fans. or viii he
consent TO play on the American
grounds, and take the chance Of Cra-
Yath coming through on the field.
Playing on a strange field Is certainly
q handicap. but Boston win transfer.
Why not the Qnakers?
Thousands, Of Philadelphia fans have
crowded the park this year to make
the Quakers welcome, and Ii Is hardly
expected that the PhilIies will stab
the fans BY sticking to the cigar box
park Connie Mack lost his prestige
in the Quaker city by houting the
wishes of the fans and In consequences
the Athletics have been heavy losers.
II doesn't look as II the PhiIiies would
make the same mistake and lose all
they have gained BY their splendid
work this year.

~ Cobb has stolen more bases than
the whole Phil team, but Alexander

Marquard stated that the real rea-
son why he worried over the attempt
to send him to the minors was be-
cause leaving the big show would ma
terially injure his prospects as yaud-

"Rnbe" worried over the fact that
his theatrical efforts may have inter-

ser?
"AI" Mamaux and Doc Johnston

Cigar Box Park Will
Not Seat Half Enough

Now that James Carney has offered
Manager earTigan the Braves Park to
use IN the coming SERIES it will be
interesting to watch whether the Phil
lies will use Shibe Park IN the games
at Philadelphia Braves Field Is the
largest baseball ground In the country
and will seat over Sc. 900 people which
should make q record crowd for big
series. Last year the Braves used
Fenway Park when they won the
championship, and at that time had
upwards of $4,000 people in the stands.
This record was broken this year In
the recent Detroit series when $1,000
people crowded into Fenway Park.
Contests In baseball'a classic have
been played in Philadelphia many
times In the past, but never at the
National League Park, and as this field
has only seating capacity of about
$1,000 when crowded to the fences
there is sure to be a heap of dissatis.
faction among the fans who wishl to
attend the big series. Some time ago
1t was suggested that the games be
transferred to the American League
Park, the home Of the Athletics.
Give Boston Advantage.
The suggestion. most of which
came from the fans of philadelphia,
was not welcomed by the Quaker
management at all, as they stated
that it would give the Boston team
q big advantage at the start.

MOTION PICTURES.

Although 1t has taken several years Of hard work and ceaseless ofior on the part of the who have had faith in the ultimate success of motion picture shows the motion picture industry is establishing its- self on firm financial basis. and is. according to Che Census Bureau the fifth largest manufacturing industry in the United States. From January to De- cember. 3l 1914 S20OooooO was sepnt in the making of motion picture negatives It is estimated that at least 1ooOOooO persons daily go photoplay theatres in this country.
 Producers of plays at regular theatres and theatre owners and managers were oath at first to embark in the moving picture business but times changing. and among the most successful moving picture produc- ers actors and directors may be those who for merly were connected with the theatre. They have come to realize that moving pictures have opened an entirely different field.
 One Of the principal reasons for the success of the moving picture dramas that it is cheap form of amusement which appeals all classes of people.
 The standard constantly is being raised. The pub lis is demanding a better and higher class of films, and the producers are spending money and more time in their production In raising the standard of their films the producers have offering attractive salaries and obtaining leading of the stage to appear in the principal roes One of the pioneer com paues is making plans to take over more than 400 twodoliar theatres in the United States to run photopays and is engaging more than 25 of the lead ing stars to appear in photoplays which planned to surpass anything yet attempted. and to cost from 5000 to S10OO00 for each film

 The verdict of the jury that Harry Thaw IS sane was not unexpected His fate rests with Justice Hen drick Most people will be glad to see the State get rid of his case.
 Murder in the first degree or an insanity verdict was the alternative logically confronting the original trial jury It chose the merciful judgment at the impassoned urgngs of Thaws counsel after trial that hurt the repute of American courts as far as tele graph wires stretch and newspapers printed Spar ed as insane Thaw demanded instant release as sane man. In the disgusted words of one of his lawyers, he thought should have been sentenced not to Mat teawan but to a Tenderoin restaurant
 A poor man in his position would have dropped out of sight Backed by vast wealth in hands which no scruple hampered in it's Thaw began the long struggle which vexed the too patient courts until a Federal Judge found in sister state who denied the right of New York reclaim escaped prisoner, and until the Supreme Court in Washington had to be invoked to end intolerable situation.
 Through all these years the slime of the Thaw mon ey has stained better than he It has ruined rep utations filled prison cells closed promising careers in dshonored death It has left it's trail of debauchery through many States and a neighbor country. Every where has melted greed, rewarded reachery stirred up filth.
 Sanity is a matter of opinion, matter of degree. a matter of fact and the fact can be ascertained. Thaw was held to be insane when he killed White. He is held to be If he shall now be releas- ed he will at least not have gone scatheless for his crime and New York will be we'll satisfied to hear less and see nothing of him in the future.
