and dramatic lines, let him attend
one of their public entertainments
and have his mind disabused.
The editor of the News and his wife
were invited to attend the annual re-
cital # this club. given last night in
the Masonic Temple, and it was in
deed an evening of rare enjoyment.
There were fifteen numbers on the
program, and not one was from an
author who does not have an inter
national reputation, among them be-
ing such famous composers as Fuast,

This is only one Of the several Ia

and develop artistic tastes and social
enjoyment. We doubt il there Is a city
Of the population of Arcadia to be
found where there is more talent
along these lines than among the Ia
dies OF this city. This is not an ordi-
nary compliment. hut Is fact gener-

which they are not likely TO do, Brooklyn
will be lucky to grab one game from this
club. That being So their only chance, or
their main chance, now, is to stop the
Phillies today and Saturday. which they
will never do this side of grand old Gehenna
unless their mental attitude is completely
reversed.
The psychological edge is all with the
Phillies. For Brooklyn has figured the pen
nant already in for the greater part of the
last six weeks. Now there is haunting
fear abroad in the Robin camp that the
$4,000 per is going upon a long journey at
the edge of a hard, bleak winter.
We may be wrong, but Brooklyn gave
that impression yesterday. when the first
detonation arrived promptly in the second
inning and the second one came with equal
promptness in the fourth. For the main
tip-off is this-of the first seven runs
scored by the Phillies four were due to raw
breaks in the Robin defense And the
mental attitude of a club that breaks this
badly is not sound enough to hold the
heights in such a race.
For this finish is now test Of the inside
stuff rather than matter of mere skill

PILLS TRIUMPH FORECASTED

BnGRANTLAND RICE

As 1T looks from a strictly offslde angle,
"A the depressed Robins have been yearn-
ing to detonate or blow for the last three
weeks. Such being the case, their big
chance has come at last to scatter Brooklyn
fragments up and down the stricken field

what depressed before a blow was struck
or ball was pitched. With Alexander in
a pitching attitude, you gathered the idea
quite early that Brooklyn was looking for
the first brief opening that might lead to a
cave-in. So far as mental attitude went, no
comparison between the two clubs could be
made that was not highly odious TO the
Brooklyn soul.
Phillies Confident
The Phillies went to battle in a strictly
workmanlike manner, with their heads up
and their eyes open. Quite bit of this
confidence was undoubtedly due to the prev
alence of G.. c. Alexander. The Robins may
assume a different mental attitude today
with Big Alex on the bench. but unless this
happens and they win today those twonch

stand will soon be empty under cold Octo-

Meet the Test
Briefly, the Phillies yesterday played
with rare confidence. and the Robins played
with the opposite stuff. They were fairly
good until some pinch moment arrived,
whereupon they crumbled badly. II was
mot until Alexander began to ease up with
six-run lead that Brooklyn began to make
a series of threatening gestures. The test

is the section that cracks first when the
