turn OF mind and handy with MS
hands. Whenever firemen wanted
something to use in passing away
time, Rober made it. When they
asked for ball that would not Grip
pie their hands he produced it.
The firemen invented a game like
indoor baseball. Men and boys in
the neighborhood joined them in
their play. The game grew so in
popularity it spread from one neigh
borhood to another and finally across
the river to st. Paul.
Officials of the city Fairgrounds
heard of the ball, tested it, ordered a
lot of them and started the game in
city parks. Leagues for men were
formed, then leagues of women and
girls. The game invented because a
retired firemen had a good ball be-
came craze.
Rober called the ball the kitten
League" ball, after favorite kitten.
Leagues were also named after the
kitten.
Rober soon found himself deVoting
all his time to the manufacture of
balls. He made all of them without
machinery. He worked hard. He
was willing to go on making the balls
and thereby add to his income, which
consisted of a fireman's pension.
Now his business is threatened.
The sporting goods concern which
gobbled up his idea has lots of ma
chinery and is able to turn out the
balls at a rapid clip. The concern
has decided to sell the balls at a low
er price than Rober sold them. Ro-
Der may be forced out of business,
while the game for which he was re-
sponsible may spread to all parts of
the country.

A new society, "The Order of the
Broken Jaw" has been organized at
Illinois university. Potsy Clark, fa-
nous quarterback, was the first |
member. George Halas, end, was
next. George has it on Potsy, though, |
because his jaw is broken in two |
places; Potsy's in only one.
Clark was hurt in game against |
Rolla School of Mines. He knew
something was wrong, but didn't |
know what, and played through the
contest. His jaw was the first broken
at Illinois in 25 years.

1t would be out OF the question, OF
course. to say what Guthrie would
have been without its club women;
with them, it has developed not mere
ly along wholly material lines but
along cultural lines as well. The
time has gone by when men OF busi-
ness regarded woman's activity in
civic affairs as an impertinent in
trusion the time has come when in
the newer as well as in the older
communities her civic activity is re-

pared for her She had TO find it and
cultivate it for herself. and she has
proved beyond question her right TO

WHAT ONE WomAN's CLUB HAS
DONE

As time goes. the womans club
dates from Yesterday; in the United
States, at least, il would now be little
short of the humanity impossible to
measure the social loss if by any
means the woman's club should pass
out of existence today or tomorrow.
Perhaps no more eloquent testimony
to its value is 20 be found anywhere
than in the short record of its use
fulness recently furnished by The
Christian Science Monitors cores
pondence from Guthrie, Okla There
is far more of the typical than the
exceptional in this. 1t offers itself
for our use simply because it illus
trates the value of woman's club to
a community. and the illustration is
only strengthened and frightened by
the circumstance that the community
in question is one of the youngest in
the nation.
Linked with the early settlement
and development of Guthrie, Okla,
is its woman's club. This was the
pioneer among the women's societies
in Guthrie that now comprise the city
federation, and the list of its activi-
ties and achievements may be begun
with the concentration of effort in
that organization. 1t is pleasant at
any distance from Guthrie, to run
over il. There is the establishment
of a public library and free reading
room. a Patrons club lecture course,
a Humane society, an Audubon so
ciety, among the direct results. Then
among the indirect fruits may be
counted the introduction of domestf
science study in the public schools;
the formation OF domestic science
clubs in other cities of the state; the
introduction and popularization OF
manual training: the control, prac'
tically. of motion picture censorship;
the carrying on of civic undertakings
in Horticulture: the promotion OF parks
and boulevards, and the general beau
tifcation of the city.
The club women of Guthrie are
credited with foremost effort and in
fuence in the promotion OF play
grounds: in the successful agitation
for a 100000 municipal bathhouse,

The Illusion That Wealth Brings Happiness Explained

the acquiring. at least in the possession,
do bring happiness.
Indeed, from the conduct OF the multi
tude in our own land and day one would
almost seem forced TO conclude that, in
the judgment Of all but the very few, to
get money and SO TO control the things
which money will buy is the only way
70 get happiness. Here, then, is 1.-THE
Great Illusion"
Now, the curious thing about all this is
that. when In reflective and confessional
mood. the rich men themselves will tell
you that the. riches have not brought
them TO the happiness they expected from
them. often. that they arc not at all so
happy as they were when they were Door
And those who are not yet ready 10 make
confession. or are still too proud to make
II. show plainly by their conduct that in
reality the cause is little il at ALL
diherent with them. Yet they. too, and
the multitudes Of the people, go steadily
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1915-07-04

or ftfully and feverishly on, just as
though they were firmly convinced that
the experience OF the race did not tell
the truth; or that they could somehow
make themselves exceptions to the uni
versal law. There must be something in
human nature, and in its environment, to
account for such self-contradictory and
irrational behavior as this attitude of the
multitude of men toward great wealth
seems to indicate.
The reason Is this: Incomparably above
all the other animals stands man in the
variety and unlimited character OF his
needs and Of his ambitions. He has an
eVer-needy, ever-restless, ever-aspiring
soul. Give the most intelligent and am
bilious dog good full meal, and he does
not begin to think where the next meal
is 10 come from, or whether he may not
some day take more luxurious one off
OF silver platter or gold plate. For
the time he is satisfied; and the satisfac.
lions are going always to be confined

within the circle of the same recurring
wants.
But with man the case Is not so lie ia
punt so that he can never be satisfied
1ully and forever-w1ln what he has and
what he is. And here is the source of
his rise toward more and more of divine
excellence, or the cause of his falling into
the devils own trap. If he chooses for
his pursuit, as the really good thing.
riches and all that riches can buy, he will
never get out of that trap until he learns
me lesson OF its illusion; he will be more
hopelessly caught, the more he fattens
on the bait. And even if he chooses the
real goods Of life, the things that make
more than wealth can for human happi.
ness he must cultivate other virtues than
rlght desire and noble ambition, in order
10 secure fair measure of happiness.

there are few more nearly unanimous
IMAM this: Riches, whether in the acouir
