Alan crept stealthily up the stairs
Out OF the corner of his eye he caught
sight of the twitching jumpers of the
littlest, who was too fat to quite fit the
retreat he had chosen. But Alan did
not quite see until it was too late The
littlest exploded the vast breath he
had been holding in and plunged head
long down the stairs. AS he rolled by
the newell he stuck out a sturdy arm
and held fast. He shouted a pean OF

Alan wondered If he could find the
way to the little attic. He hurried

he had suddenly opened a portal on his
own childhood. A great. pensioned
rocking chair held the middle OF the

He wanted to kiss Glen. He felt that
he must kiss her, that there was not
strength enough left in him TO do any
thing else. Then his eyes met hers
and he forgot himself and remembered
Glen. His soul cried. "Sacrilege." and
he dropped his arms from about hel

but that he did know that there was a
battle and that Gerry would surely
come back as soon as he had fought
his way clear.
So the Hill in general went almost
untroubled on its way trying to forget
that II was still awaiting a fulfllment,
and even Allx began to CLEAN little

FAIR AND FOUL
 RAPS AT ATHLETES
By Frank G. Menke.

New York, Jan. 25.-One swallow doesn'. make summer, but cne wonderful ball player comes very close to making a ball team.
 Ty Cobb and the Detroit Tigers are an instance. Christy Mathewson and the New York Giants of ether years were Grover Alexander and the Phil lies as the 1915 combination.
 Detroit never would have been a contender for the 1915 flag if it had not been for Ty Cobb. Nor would De- troit ever had even fighting chance in any of the past six or seven years without the amazing Georgian. The Phillies would have been lucky 0 finish in the first division in 1915 if they hadn't had Alexander. When Matty was in the Eey-dey Of his career he was the Giant team. He kept them in the fight and often put them ahead with his peerless pitch ing.
 Ed Walsh was the White Sox team in the days when the "Hitless Won ders" breezed through to a worlds championship. Minus Walsh the Sox wouldn't have finished one-two-three. Smokey Jce" Wood carried the Red Sox to the American League pennant and then to the worlds champion i ship in 1912. Without him the Sox never would have been in the battle. Of course, these stars had help | Their teammates hit behind them and they fielded brilliantly. but the hit 1 ting and the fielding would have ! availed nothing in pennant chasing bad it not been for the scintillating work of that one star. He turned the tide of battle; he lifted his club to i the crest.

 "Hey, what's the matter kere?" yelled Higgins, jumping in and rescuing his player.
 "He hit me first" yelled the waiter pointing at the "rookie." "I aint gonna let anyone throw things at me-"
 Did you throw something at him?' asked Huggins.
 "Yes-a little rice." answered the cub. "It was punk stuff. He wanted me to pay for it: I wouldn't and in the argument I threw i! at him."
 "Was that all-iust some rice?" demanded the Cardinal manager.
 "Well, the rice was in the form of pudding" reluctantly admitted the cub.
 "What's the use of getting peeved because fellow throws little rice pudding at your" said Huggins. turn ing to tho glowering waiter.
 "Rice pudding, hey?" snarled the waiter. "Well, femme tell you this, mister. That guy Is telling only half the truth. He's right; it was rice pudding that he threw at me but he failed to tell you that the pudding was in a cup.
