SOMEWHAT HARD TO FOLLOW
Sturdy Veterans Recipe for Long Life
All Right, but for Certain
Strong Considerations.

George Mclean, a Jamaica negro,
seventy-flve years old, sailor for 81
years and still an active and able sea-
man, veteran Of a thousand storms and
a score OF shipwrecks, has been telling
the Philadelphia Public Ledger how to
avoid illness and attain old age with
out losing an ounce of the strength of
youth. Here is Georges recipe:
Eat as much as you like, whenever
you desire.
Eat whatever you like.
"Sleep whenever you feel sleepy.
No particular hours are necessary.
"Just live like you want to-"
There is no doubt that George has
the right idea. Youth-at least until
implacable age has broken it of it's
desire-believes in eating as much as
it likes, whenever it likes, and in
sleeping when it feels sleepy. But by
the time one is more or less able to
"just live like he wants to" lifetime
Of training in the opposite direction
holds up inhibitory hands and robs
his liberty of it's SAVIOR.
George is an example-but he per-
haps owes more than he realizes to
the Delaying pin and the ropes end,
both Of which aids to good habits were
in their prime when his habits were
forming .-Knickerbocker Press.

FANCY SKATING is BOOSTED
Americans Are Deficient in One Of
Most Graceful and Healthful of
All Outdoor Sports.

Wherever outdoor sports are known
and INDUCED in, Americans have set
the mark of their athletic greatness.
Baseball, football, hockey, lawn ten
mis-, polo, swimming these and a
score of other outdoor activities have
all seen the names of our country
men and countrywomen among the
worlds greatest.
In view of this, it is all the more re-
markable that in one of the most
graceful and healthy of all outdoor
sports-fancy or figure skating =
Americans are notably deficient. In
fact, with the exception of Irving Bro
kaw, who has many times won the
national championship at this style OF
skating, and one or two others in the
past, the art is virtually unknown in
this country.
But with the recent arrival in this
country of Paul Wilson of Stockholm.
Sweden, it is possible that fancy skat
ing will gain some of the popularity
here that it enjoys abroad. Mr.. VIII
son is young in years, but learned in
the science of cutting marvellous fig
ures on the ice, and his form is sale
to be perfection itself.

Indications now are that none OF the
American league clubs will change
managers during the coming winter,
and that when the call for spring
training is made next spring the men
at the helm of the clubs in the john
son circuit last season will issue the
notification to the players to assemble
on the southern training fields.
So far as Boston is concerned,
there is not the slightest danger that
Bill Carrigan will be dropped.
Hughie Jennings is positive hx-
ture with the Detroit Tigers. Having
a considerable financial interest in the
club, and having produced a pennant
contender, his chances for getting out
are extremely remote.

start, but found the going rather

laborious process of literary compo-

"are you going to be over that beg

Indignantly.
"Beggarly postcard!" she said.

GOOD SEASON FOR MCNAMARA
Boston Player Was Most Successful
Professional In Game-Possessor
of Fine Temperament.

Without doubt the most successful
professional in America this year is
Tom Mcnamara Of Boston. He is
American born, and one of the trium-
virate of celebrated homebreds, the
other two of whom were Brady and
McDermott.
1t will be remembered that he fin
ished second in the open champion
ship of the United States, which was
played at Baltusrol, at which time his
score of 298 for the 70 holes was but
a single stroke behind Jerome Trav-
ers, who won the title. He followed
this up by capturing the open cham
pionship of Philadelphia at Philadel-
phia Country club, with 296 for u
holes.
Turning his face to the west, Nc
Namara went to Chicago and won the
western open title at the Glen Oak
Country club, returning a score of 304
strokes.
Such a performance is one of un-
usual merit, for it will be seen that in
the three big tournaments his total

Clark Griffith will remain in Wash

Wild Bill Donovan is to remain at
the head of the New York Yankees.
His employers, Colonel Rupert and
Captain Huston, have stated they are
well satisfied with his work with the
mediocre players he inherited and
have confidence in Wild Bill to build
up fighting machine.
Branch Hickey is to continue as
manager of the st. Louis Browns for
at least another year. Col Bob Hedges
is reported to have made that state
ment to st. Louis newspaper men, and
he is the man to decide.
Lee Fohl was signed to 1916 con-
tract to manage the Cleveland Indians
few days ago, and has a cinch on
the job.
This leaves only Connie Mack to be
figured on, and no one has even sug-
gested that the grand old man of
Quakertown baseball would be let out.

At the New York American
league clubs Offices is probably
the most complete catalogue of

is in possession of any baseball
club. A big cabinet is filled with
cards on which are written re-
ports covering every promising
player in the minor leagues last
season.
So thorough were the New
York scouts, that they reported
on every player who even was
suspected of being a baseball
player. These cards contain
blanks rating the player as

are written General remarks"
