PUTTING IDAHO ON THE LITERARY M

1PHE London Times says in its lengthy and compliment
tary review of the work of Professor Hume of the
Idaho university that this state is of the least
developed of the Rocky Mountain commonwealth mean
ing, Of course literary way The high praise accords
Professor Hume for his wide range of thought and hs
scholarly unbiased presentation of profound subject
tells what already knew but what outsiders may not
have known that we have reached stage of literary deve
opment comparing favorably with that of other western
states and that does suffer materially in comparison
with that of most of the others.
Mary Halock Foote the first to give idaho any
sort of literary standing the nation Professor Hume
years after the second but the credit to Idaho
this time bears more of an international stamp
There have been Others however, who in more modest
accomplishments have added to the cultural reputation of
this state In historians have John Haley who has
preserved pertinent facts of dahos history in permanent
form. Former Governor William J. Mcconnell and the
late William A. Gouder phases of Idaho history into
most entertaining Renaissance and the late Judge enner
in his works has denoted literary standing the state
of high order.
It is true that prophet is not without honor in
his country Mrs Fooe not fully appreciated at
home Professor Hume might have gone unrecognzed
any great extent home but for the praise accorded else
where The Others perhaps could hardly expect to attract
than local attention The situation does not form
reflection upon the intelligence perception of Idaho peo
pie. It is the world Recognition usually comes
first from the outside
The wide attention attracted to Professor Hume s
book will doubt to impress all minds the
truth that in state we have genius and to
to awaken to keen appreciation of the efforts of
all those who have contributed to Idahos literary wealth
In this connection the suggestion to be pertinent
that arrangements be made for the publication of
complete Idaho history under official auspices.

NEW YORK, Sept. IA com
parison of the White Sox and
Giant infelders, whose work m the
coming worlds series will be high
~ important, reveals that there is
little 20 choose one way or the
other if figures are TO be taken as
"a basis for sizing them up.
Figures never lie. we are told,
yet no set )f figures ever compiled
has shown how ball players com
pare in anything else but mechani-
cal ability on the field of play. For
instance. the batting, fielding and
base-runnins figures do not show
that Eddie Collins is a lightning
thinker or that Charley Herzog is
one of the smartest ball players ili
the game Neither do they show
that Artie Fletcher. Buck Weaver,
or Heinie Zimmerman are players
who have an abnormal amount of
lighting spirit.
So all that can be gotten from
the averages covering the grea Ell
part of the present season is a line
on the mechanical ability of the
rival infjeldeT who will clash in tho
worlds series this fall and because
up-tO-the-minute fielding figures
are unavailable. and batting aver
ages do not indicate what the play
ers may do ir seven-g game Sc

petter hitter He has been out
fielding HerZog by more than 90
points, and because of HerZoS' s
spinal INJURY which may eventual
~ force hun to retire from tile

fectiveness cannot be compared TO
that of the lightning fast, sure
footed Collins.
Fletcher Has the Call.
The Giants will even up the
count at shOrtstOT. how ever. Artie
FLETCHER has it over Swede Ris-
berg in hitting by some so points
and is practically as sure a fielder,
though step slower, than the
Chicago youth. Both players are
Teppcry performers. Fletcher

not to mention his ability TO take
throws to the keystone sack and
put the ball on the runners, gives
hin the call.
And now comes the closest COM
parison Of a,l-that between Heinie
Zimmerman and George Weaver,
who. il Is expected will be fit az
fiddle and as full Of fight and
ginger as ever by the time the big
series starts Here are two play
ers whose work around third base
is both brilliant and consistent.
As a hatsman Zimmerman has
shown himself TO be some %
points better than Weaver on the
season, but The Chicagoan is al
ways a DANGEROUS man. OF tine
two Tim hits the ball hardest and
farthest when he gets a tOe-hold.
In base-running the White SoN
infelders are superior, but the
Giants. as whole are perhaps
better rough-and-ready hitters, and
they lack nothing i'm the line Of

in the big series. the Giants viii
