THE HOME TOWN

Some folks leave home for money
And some leave home for fame,
Some seek skies always sunny,
And some depart in shame,
/ care not what the reason
Men travel east OF west,
Or what the month or season,
The home town is the best.
The home town is the glad town,
Where somebody real abides,
Tris not the money-mad town
That al It's spirits hides.
Through strangers scoff and flour IL
And even ieer its name,
II has a charm about il
No other town can claim.
The home town skies seem blner
Than skies that stretch away,
The home town friends seem truer
And kinder through the day.
And when slum or CHEEKY,
Light hearted or depressed,
Or strugglc.fit or weary,
] like the home town best.
Let him who viii 60 wander
To distant towns 10 live.
OF some things 7 am fonder
Than all they have 10 give,
The gold Of distant places
Could not renny mo quite
For those familiar faces
That keep the home town bright

HUGG|NS SAYS THAT
hURLERS WILL DECIDE
THE NATIONAL RACE

Miller Higgins, manager of the St.
Louis Cardinals, declares that the
Phtllies and Braves have an excellent
chance to overhaul the Dodgers
While Brooklyn has an advantage be-
cause of its lead, he says, conditions
are such that this lead might be cut
down within week unless the Dodg-
ers show great staying qualities.
The race has reached stage ac-
cording to Higgins views where it
Is a question as to which teams are
playing about the same brand of ball
and none has shown any marked su-
periority in their recent games with
the Cardinals. Higgins believes that
the Phillies have a great chance be-
cause Moran's team is one of the most
consistent in the game and is a COM
bination which is not likely to crack.
Much will depend upon the work
OF three pitchers says Higgins. "a
race such as is being staged in the
senior league this season is generally
decided by the ability of one pitcher
to stand over-work and the judgment
used by the managers in selecting the
pitchers who will share the burden
with the one overworked star"
