Right here, Margie, am going to

Smith. Some of these truths, of
course, l did not learn until had
been with her husband a long time
as secretary, but l want to describe
her here as I ultimately found her.

OF A WIFE
OMAN LOVES HERSELF
"She had blonde hair which was
softly curly, blue eyes that falsely
miTTOred a small soul and there was
not a wheedling feminine art that
was not at her command.
Congressman Smith loved her de-
vOtedly. He tried tosgive her every
thing her vOraciOus little mind
craved.
"She was his wife, but she also was
his ruin, as you will see when 1 tell
you the story Of my secretaryship
with him.
glossy Smith had just one love in
her heart herseIf-and as unerTing-
ly as a hOming pigeon brought back
the message to its hOming nest, so
she brought everything and everyone
with whom she came in contact to
herself.
She hated other women. I first
took a dislike to her when she told
me that, for Margie, I think a wOm-
an who disHkes her own sex is not
quit normal"
Yes, know some women seem to
think it mark of superiority to say
they do not like their own sex, but
to me it always means they them
selves are not worth liking either by
men or women for they only care for
themselves. The reason why FlOssy
Smith hated other women was be-
cause she hated to see another Of her
sex receive the slightest attention
while she was around.
She was the most intensely selfish
woman have even known. She
never had a good word or an act of
kindness for another woman, or for
a man either unless she thought she
could get something for it.

Macon, Ca, Feb. 27.-Eighteen ball
players worked out yesterday after
! noon at the Macon ball park in the
! opening practice of the year for Bill
! Donovan's Yankees. " AS might be ex-
pected strenuous work was tabooed,

| not resist the temptation to throw
! hard occasionally and put on full
speed in running about the park. The
crop Of sore muscles today promised
to come up to the usual second day
standard.
Donovan was not in uniform, but
his two assistants, Duke Farrell and
Joe Kelley, mingled with the young
Sters during the workout, which
lasted about two hours. The squad
now on hand consists OF twelve
pitchers, two catchers and three out
f1elders; also Infielder dolly Stark

Of the players ordered to report
here for work the only absentees are
Caldwell and Dan Triple, pitchers,
and Olson. catcher. No word has
come from Caldwell and it is not
known whether or not he intends to
report; Triples plans also are in
doubt. He refused to sign the con-
tract which was sent to him some
time ago and it is not likely that
the club officials are planning to make
of effort TO get him into
line. Olson is semi professional catch
err and no worry is being felt ABOUT
his coming to camp.
Shaw, the catcher drafted from the
Macon club last fall, showed that he

is a, big fellow broad OF shoulder and
not Of the numbering type so common
among big catchers. Donovan was
very favorably impressed with this
capture in the draft net.
That the Yankee scouts are strong

when Ed Monroe put in an appear

Love, Monroe and McGraw make up a

ESQ players in the first half of the
qualifying round of the annual spring
golf tournament at Pinehurst, N. G..

IL holes. Robert Hunter Of Noroton,

ing round will be played tomorrow.
Coach Hughey Duffy may use Dick
Harte, Harvard's crack catcher, at
first base this spring in the event of
no suitable material for the initial
corner turning up. c.. H. Fuller and
r. H. Bond are two promising catch
ers being given attention by Duffy, so
that the change may be made with
out impairing the strength of the nine
behind the plate.
1t looks as if Jack Flynn has def

Springfield as manager this season.
Owner Carey does not want to pay
Flynn what Jack thinks he is worth.
