TRAVELLING WITH TRAVELLERS
By A. W. Parke.

With two of the slugging outfield of the Travellers out of the game through injury, and the other drag ging a foot so that he fails to beat out nheld hits, a pitcher playing in the outfcld, a third baseman who can scarcely creep, and a weak pitch ing staff, to say nothing of a catcher with the chills, and the Travellers started winning. A royal rooter in Little Rock was unkind enough to suggest that Manager Starr cripple the balance and win pennant.
 Club Physician Milton Vaughan was almost as bad. President Allen wired to find out a probable date for Kirbys return to the game. Dr. Vaughan wired back that he was going to keep Kirby's injury in bad shape and send typhoid germs for the balance of the players, for he wanted to see the team win.

WHEN MOTHER JOINED FIRM.

In the June Woman's Home Com
 panion is the amusing account of the experience of two newspaper editors, who decided to make their mother a
 partner in their business. When she started on the type
 writer" one of them says, i've stood
 around in hearing distance, in vague
 apprehension, fearful that in some unknown manner she would smash
 the keyboard. In spite of the fact that everything mother did was done
 neatly, correctly, and in good time,
 we were continually in a nervous state of mind about her.
 "One evening, though, after we had given her the same instructions in regard to the same piece of work sev-
 eral times, mother got mad
 "Mother did not stop there. Mother had been thinking and studying since she had started into business. She showed us a dozen mistakes we had
 been making, and the means of cor
 recting them. She also showed us
 characteristics in her disposition that
 she had never shown us before. Sharp rebuke, criticism, advice, censure and
 encouragement fell rapidly from her | lips. She was going to do certain things in that shop if we were willing, and if we were not willing she was lgolng to hunt other employers that were more agreeable to work for. If we would let her, she would take the local beat, keep the books, take care of the correspondence and keep the business office shining. We let her. Besides this, she hurriedly out lined a new business getting policy that appealed to us strongly. Mother began to show her business side, that same side that made her boss at home. Oldtimers were selling out and new people were coming into our county. We had devoted but little energy to
 our subscription list, but had spent Iall of our time in an aggressive cam paign toward developing going
 printing business. Mother saw our weak spot. She insisted that we keep after this changing citizenship with personal letters and personal sclicita- tion. She would do the work.
 "She also mapped out logical and comprehensive mail order campaign for our commercial printing depart ment, which was inexpensive and bound to win"

reunion crowd was gathering and both were well attended, yet Presi- dent Allen and Manager Starr could not help looking with covetous eyes on the dates of the Memphis Chicks, they getting the choice of the Con- tederate Reunion picking. President Allen would have cheerfully swapped, but he played his two games and saw fair sized crowds on each day, though not so large as though he had been playing at home, and then Memphis was rained out on the big day of the reunion.

Over in Birmingham, where Hard grove labored on the mound before he came to Little Rock, they do poke fun at the Old Fox. After he had put over a win in his last visit to Birmingham, one of the daily papers came out with an account of the game Tn which it charged that Hardgrove was inspired sufficiently to win through the faces of so many veterans Of other days appearing at the game This was rather delicate intimation that Hardgrove had soldiered through the war of the eos for the Confeder- ate Reunion was then in progress in the city of furnaces.

Just as soon as team starts los ing, the knockers start reports of various players breaking training rules, and all sorts of riotous scenes are pictured. Considerable fiction of this character has been spun this years about our Travellers, and there is as much foundation for it all as there is for some promotion schemes which in the past have flourished in Arkansas. One report stated that a pillar of the team was seen wander ing about Memphis in a woebegone condition in the early hours of the morning. This player was not in Memphis on the day specified, or at any time within two weeks of the day, but little thing like that does not interfere with the mischief makers. Still another player has been changed with leading his teammates astray, and with as little foundation. Man ager Starr says that when rules are broken the offenders will sleep with Pres. Allen. He now rooms alone.

From her remarks it is evident that the knowledge of base oaIl did not pass further than the masculine members of the family.
 T don't think they should work the catcher so hard" she conflded to her escort.
 There is a revision to the rules no" pending" he replied, which will give them two catchers on each team next year, one to catch balls, and one to catch strikes, and then it won't be so hard on the umpires, for there will never be any question on a decision, TOT all they have to do is to watch the catchers."

Dr heat and the returning waves cause a repe- tition of the sound. The word echo Is of Greek origin. According to ancient mythology, 1t was the name of noun tain nymph, daughter of the air and the earth. Echo was one of JunO's at- tendants, but her loquaclty displeased Jupiter, so she was deprived of the power of speech by juno and permitted to answer only when she was spoken to- Afterward Echo fell in love with a beautiful youth named Narcissus md was changed into u stone, which still retained the power of voice.
