SHOE MEMS HARVEST

Audubon dealers are hopping their
brows and getting a breath of air
now that the rainy weather has stop
ped for moment and warm, dry sun
shine has, taken it's place. The shoe
men are catching the breath they did
not have time to catch during all Of
half dozen weeks of rainy weather.
Fer shoe men have been especially
busy and nave, made what. they cali
a rich harvest during that time.
4; Just as sure as the old saying "One
mans loss is another's gain" is a
true maxim, so sure is 1t that while
some classes of business fall far be-
hind during rainy SPELL, the shoe
business is one that profits during
such a spell. 1t is recognized fact
that rainy weather sells, shoes, and
the rainy spell Just experienced has
been no exception The shoe men ex-
plains it by the fact that wet weather
draws q mans attention to the fact
that his sole is thin or entirely worn
out

All sensible people who have the
means and opportunity, recuperate
themselves by frequent pauses for re-
creation. They do not defer this per-
Tod of pleasure until the closing
months of worn out life. They are
too wise to expect impossibilities of
nature-the recuperation of an utter
ly exhausted body. They are CRATE
full to heaven that they posses sthe
means which is wisely used to pro-
long a useful life. More than sixty
people are now members of the club
and more are entering.

PLAYERS
ARE LIKE ACTORS
So Declares Claire Rochester. One of
the Most Enthusiastic
Fans,

Miss Claire Rochester has a wonderful
double voice, but still more wonderful
personality. and is the champion femi-
nine baseball fan on whom the statisti-
clans have any oficial dope. Moreover.
she Is unique in this respect. for, being
heart-whole and fancy free with regard
to the national pastime. she roots as va
liantly for one club as for another and
cheers vociferously every player that
makes a brilliant play. In other words
and to use the war phraseo1ogy now
rampant. she is a neutral fan, . new
species IN fandom.
In explanation of her stand. Miss Roch-
ester states that it would be pretty hard
upon the artists who perform for the
public before the footlights II the audi
ence took sides and only applauded their
old favorites instead OF applauding every
artist when clever and meritorious work
was done. Baseball to her Is an exhibi-
ton. and she feels every one Of the play
ers who turns q clever play deserves the
applause Is the real inspiration to those
who perform for the public, whether on
the ball field or on the stage. and she
says she Is going to see that no player
wants for her share Of that inspiration.
Miss Rochester happened to be playing
in Boston when the last national series
was pulled OF, and she managed to get
to the ball park in time to see the major
part Of each game played In the Bean
City by means Of . high-power automo-
bile which swung her swiftly through
the crowded Boston streets away from
the Keith Theater to the ban park after
her performance each afternoon. She In

EVEN BAKERS NAME NOW
Rifles MACKMEN'S LEADER

Philadelphia. Pa. June 3.-Frank
Baker. in a conversation over the long
distance phone. told a representative Of
The Washington Herald that he was
willing to return to the Athletics at
any time. but he also said that he
would return only at his own terms.
His own terms consist of a new con-
tract at the old figures but only for one
year, and a public apology from Man
ager Mack for some of the things he
has said about his former home-run
king.
that this is out of the question and
is a ridiculous request was proved con-
clusively when Manager Mack was in
terviewed. Mack is one who seldom
loses his temper. but he became en-

that my kid wins his game" said
the Old Fox to the writer.
When Griffith sold Southpaw Harry
Harper to Minneapolis he told Man
ager Cantillon tOEive the boy plenty
of work as the best cure for wildness,
and according to word received yes
terday Cantillon is carrying out Griffs
orders with a vengeance.
The Herald is in receipt Of a letter
from former Washingtonian at
present in Minneapolis. An excerpt is
printed below:
Last Saturday Harper pitched seven
innings and famed eleven batsmen
and on Decoration Day morning struck
out ten in nine innings and seven in
eight innings during the afternoon
game. The fans are kicking. they
claim the southpaw Is being used too
much for his own good
The Minneapolis News in comment
ing on the subject said: NO one can
fathom Joe Cantillons reason for
pitching this willing kid every few
hours unless ii Is to demonstrate that
even a healthy 20-year-old finger can
be killed off II driven hard enough.
If plenty OF work will give Harper con-
troll the youngster should be a finished
pitcher by next fall. He's getting the
work all right. and the chances are that
Cantillon. who Is a wise old mana ger.
will not overtax Harper's strength, for II
must be remembered that the southpaw
is pretty husky specimen OF the hu-
man race. with broad enough shoulders
to pitch every other day II necessary.
Sport writer's around the circuit seem
to take it as joke that Walter John
son should be played in left field. One
facetious scribe gays: "A whole lot OF
ball players would like to see Walter
johnson kept in left field II he would
only pitch from that position
Ray Morgan is playing good hall for
the Griffnen these days. both at bat and
in the field. Morgan is down to weight
and many of his teammates predict that
he will finish the season hitting close to
the 3f6 mark.
Speaking about weight. Joe Engel says:
Il weigh 1863 pounds and am hitting 1Ss. "
Let's scare up a good big crowd today
and pull for the Griffmen to get away to
a flying start against the Cleveland In
dams.

concerned. and that he did not even
want to talk about him.
Baker had a lawyer to draw up .
statement. giving his side Of the case.
but Manager Mack refused absolutely
to pay any attention whatever to the
statement. and declared It was merely
a scheme to get publicity for the Della
ware County League and to make
Baker a drawing card on that circuit.
Mack contends that Baker wants to
retire. and that he Is perfectly satisfied
to have Baker retire. and cannot I'M
derstand why there should be all the
fuss made over his case. Mack points
out that many other stars have retired
at the height of their career and were
soon forgotten. and believes that the
fans have already forgotten Baker.
even though his absence is so severely
felt by the Athletics at present.
