A Baseball Philosonher

Sentiment plays most of the strings
In this little musical instrument of
world, says a writer in an exchange.
I didn't see any Of the worlds
series baseball games held in New
York and Chicago. But my heart was
quite a loud beating affair each day
in the bleachers. And it was beating
for the Chicago White Sox.
I'll tell you why. -.
The head, heart and owner of the
Chicago White Sox is Charlie Comis-
key. They call him "the old Roman"
One day an important game was on
and his great Chicago park was crowd
ed with something like a $4,000
crowd. Then old Pluvius got busy and
started dumping wetness in torrents
onto the park.
It looked bad. So bad that one of
Comiskey's friends hunted him out,
and worried-like in excitement, ex-
claimed, "Comiskey, do you think it's
going to stop?'
1T always has," replied "the old
Roman"
No wonder the White Sox won the
worlds series.

There is really no time to lose. You

Il don't mind," she said. "Only-I

"And this is?''

But will marry you if-w1ien you re-
turn-you will propose to me all over
again, and we can go on honeymoon,
and I can be courted, and-well, you
know, I am sure!''
"All right" he said with a smile.
''To be honest with you, dearest, I
thought was going to escape all that
but see it's no use. I might have
known better. Even a war like this
cannot keep a woman from having her
own way-especially about a we'd

first WHITE BOY
Youth Accompanied Columbus
Expedition in 1892.
Detailed at Helm While Supericrs
Slept, Youngster Was Blamed
for Wreck Of Santa Maria.

Many phases of thes life Of Colum-
bus offer mysteries that the histori-
ans have never been able to clear
away, and one student of the life Of
the great explorer has come across
an incidental mystery that has an ap-
pealing interest. 1t relates to boy
who accompanied the expedition Of
1492-the only boy among it's men,
bers, and consequently the first white
boy to set foot in America.
The contemporary accounts of the
first expedition of Columbus mention
the boy in question only once and
that briefly. They indicate that he
was the only boy in the expedition
and they place on his young shoul-
ders the blame for the great catas-
trophe that befell when the Santa
Maria was wrecked on the coast of
Hayti. To be sure the story of the
wreck shows that the boy was less
to blame than his elders, but it was
easy enough to make him the scape-
goat. It was the night before Christ
mas, 1892, ten weeks after the dis.
covery of the land, and Columbus was
pushing his search for gold among the
West Indies. The flagship, the Santa
Maria, was skirting the coast of Hay
ii, and late at night, as the wind was
light and the ship barely moving, Col
,lmbus went to his cabin for rest. He
passed the helm over to the captain.
He, too, soon felt the need of sleep
and went below. EA; successor at the
tiller was sailor and he shortly fol-
lowed the example of the admiral and
the master. Before he went he awak-
ened the lad in question and told him
to mind the helm.
The boy did not go to sleep. Ee
was doubtless live lad and he felt
the importance Of being trusted to
steer the ship. But he was in strange
waters and the currents were treach-
erous near that coast, says an ex-
change. The ship struck a reef. The
admiral and crew rushed or deck in
terror. OF course they blamed the
boy. That was the way of the World
before 1902 and the fashion has never
changed.
That was the end of the Santa
Maria. The crew reached the, shore
in safety and made a fort from the
timbers Of the wreck. In that fort,
which they called La NavidaG IN
honor of the day, about forty Of the
| crew remained while their companions
went home to Spain on the Pinta and
the Nina. One historian mentions 8
tradition that the boy remained with
this number, but it is only a tradition.
The fate of the forty is mystery, for
when the second expedition of Colum-
| bus reached that island a year later
| there were only a few charred timbers
| and bones to be found. Perhaps the
boy perished there. His name has not
even come down to US, but the brief
glimpse that we have Of him is a fas-
| cinating one. There is something to
stimulate the Imagination in that
| f1eeting picture of the boy who stuck
to his post while his superiors slept.

Overcominq Camouflaue.

An American physicist believes that
the advantages Of camouflage-or at
least certain kinds Of camoufage-
can be overcome by an opposing army
by providing it's airmen and other
scouts with colored glasses or screens
Of contrasting colors to use with field
glasses, notes Popular Mechanics
Magazine. When the colors of these
screens are properly selected, uni
forms and other objects may be made
to appear in contrast, instead Of in
harmony, with their surroundings, he
claims. Camouflage as practiced in
many cases is accomplished largely by
the use of paint, objects being given
shades, that blend with the landscape.
In spite of certain difficulties that
would arise, it is believed that such
efforts at concealment could be rem
dercd quite ineffectual by the means
stated.

How Much Does He Save?

A professional man says it costs
about cents a mile to run his auto.
This includes OIL wear and tear, in-
surance and upkeep generally. Once a
week he drives to the country and buys
supplies, butter, eggs, chickens, ap-
pies, potatoes, etc. Sometimes he cov-
ers so miles on a trip. Thus, accord
ing to his own estimates, his expense
would be fully $3.50 for the so miles.
If he buys eggs at 5 cents dozen, but
ter at 5 cents a pound, chickens ut
cents 4 pound cheaper than he can buy
them in the city-and he buys, them
merely for his own family use-llow
much does he save?-Indianapolis

TAKE CHANCE On HAPPINESS
Grasp the Mood as 1t Passes and Join
the Great Throng Wearing Smiling
Countenances.

We were coming home from dinner
party together, my friend and I. 1t
was late at night and rather rainy,
'and as we sat together in the damp,
almost empty trolley car, my friend
spoke very suddenly and seriously,
writes Margaret e. Sangster in the
Christian Herald.
''|;ust now," she said, "I've a chance
to l.e very happy. But I'm almost
afrs Id to take it!''
The rain beat, in a futile manner,
against the car windows. I listened to
it for moment before I spoke.
''Why?" I questioned at last-"why
are you afraid to take your chance-to
be happy?"
Because" answered my friend, and
her eyes looked far away-past the car
and the rain, even-"tecause I'm
afraid that it won't last!"
When it is autumn, and the leaves
are crimson and gold-colored and very
beautiful, we know. even as we admire
them, that they will be brown and
withered some day. But that does not
keep us from loving their glorious COL
| ors.
It's like that, too, with flowers, and
springtime, and the blue sky of sum-
| mer. We know that the flowers will
fade away and that springtime will go
| and that there will be winter storm
clouds where there were once sparkles
| Of sun.
And so this is the answer to my
friend and to other friends Of mine:
| Never be afraid to grasp at happi-
ness because it may not last. For hap
piness is as beautiful as the flowers
of spring and the Sky of summer and
the vivid leaves of autumn. And even
though it might not last, happiness is
too beautiful to pass by with never a
! glance.
And then, as the philosopher said
and as we know, don't be sure, as you
take your chance at happiness, that it
will not stay. Look around your circle
of friends, look at your business asso-
ciates, look at the casual crowds that
you pass every day and you'll see that
the average of happy faces is rather
high. You'll see more smiles, I think
than frowns; more merry faces than
sad ones!
Don't be afraid to take a chance al
happiness because you fear that it is
too beautiful to last. Take your
chance, instead, arguing that happiness
is too beautiful not to last!
