age in Form Tigers Will Have
Real Catching Staff
(By Associated Press.l

Detroit, Feb. 12.-Baseball enthusi-
asts expect that the Detroit Americans
will have the best catching staff in the
league this season. Tub" Spencer, one
of the stars of 1915. finally has signed
his contract. His delay in coming to
terms with President Navin was not
over salary, but was occasioned by
Spencer's request that Navin cancel
an agreement which had provided that
Spencer, IL released. be sent to the
Vernon club OF the Pacific Coast
league.
Oscar Stanage, who usually has a
mountain OF flesh to dispose of in the
spring, has been conditioning himself
in Detroit this winter. Gymnasium
work and handball have kept him in
good condition, and he expects to go
south about the middle of February.
With Stanage and Spencer both in
fine condition, Manager Jennings has
hopes that the pitching staff will
share this Improvement.

 We are somewhat surprised that English friends with their thoroughness in exhausting sub jects which they discuss have overlooked another a physiological argument against these displays of food. Not only people prone to accept these displays evidences of abundance, but the displays also stimulate the desire for consumption The immediate cause of hunger has never been sats- factorily explained but of the symptoms of an imaginary hunger is a "waterng of the mouth, induced by the pleasing sight of food the result of a stimulation of the salivary process at the sight of food.

Success

In his recent tour of the Middle Western Lord Northcliffe the successful journalist of his or any other generation, described the boy the age of fifteen in thirty years he became the owner of more newspapers and more influential newspapers than had ever been under single control
 Lord Northciffe ascribed himself no superior ability; he had only the dscernment to- that the people of Great Britain had been given the kind If newspapers they wanted though they themselves did not know what they wanted They were appar- ently content with the heavy. turgd articles and labored, serious editorials which they and their fathers had had read. Northcliffe simply modern ized journalism by contributing to natural, long felt want There the foundation of his success.
 That. said Northciff together with good for tuEe hard work and the help of able brothers and an enthusiastic band of workers is all there is to it. As to the word success I detest it. The more I of success the better like failure How many earnest, brainy men meets, of splendid head and heart, who lack the small combination of fortune wits that brings money and reputation What people call success is a poor standard by which to judge 10 keep clear of Opportunity largely makes man, and the poor creature should remember that"
 This is another way of saying something that have heard before; that the self made man. is always. usually, anything be proud There some such admirable products but generally they advertise the handiwork of the amateur and the result ol Northcliffe calls opportunity, which is only accident turned to advantage
