What Has the Series in
Store for Fans of Game d?
BY GRANTLAND RICE.

Wakei For the dope now heaped in
massive store
Has put you next-I hope this doesn't
bore?
There's nothing left except the game
itself
The minor detail OF the final score.
Day after day a line of eager clients
Has sought to know which had the
greater science;
Whereat I counter boldly with this
Il rather think the Sox have-or the
Giants"
Day after day some poor nut, stand
ing by,
Asks. who will VIM" Until, with
blood shot eye,
I seek some lonely tavern of the
beat
To drown my sorrow in the flowing
rye.
When Zim, the mighty, takes a husky
swing
I wonder If he'll tear OF see-cots
wing?
Or will he lift a puny pop to third
The while he growls, THAT guy amt
got a thing!''
For I've a hunch that Zim will some
how be
The stormy petrol of the jubilee;
He'll either be The-Boy-That-Busts-
Or else the Goat, without a friendly
plea.
Think, in this batter's caravanseria,
Whose portals are eternal fight and
play.
How Tycobb after Tycobb. with his
pomp,
Abode his destined hour and went his
way.
The wan fan says where Cicotte
crowns the frame,
"I do not ask IL he will win his game;
/ do not ask what stun he has to
shoot;
But howinell does he pronounce his
manner"
Myself for days did carefullp fire.
Quent
Expert and bug, and heard great ar
gument
About it and about; but evermore
left still knowing less than when /
went.
For one would say with muttered
curse or scowl.
Joe Jacksons bat will make them
Giants howl"
Whereat another murmured: That
big dub"
That guy'll be lucky If he gets a
foulv'
And as another horned into the mill:
Just wait'n Collins leans against that
pill!
He'll drive this Schupp across the
Barren Lands"
A dull voice countered. "Yes. likely
will"
The Moving Finger writes. and. hav-
ing writ,
Moves on; nor all your dope can
change a hit,
Nor check one error on the field OF
play,
Nor all your bets upset a part of 1t.
XII
For, after all. old Omar had the dope,
The inside stu. for which the millions
grope;
And I shall give It to you word for
word,
Nor change one letter in its metric
slope
XIII
''The ball no question makes of eyes
and noes,
But here or there as strikes the play
er goes; -
An he that toss'd you down into the
field.
He knows about it alI-he knows

VIII Organize Class To
Take Military Examination

Young men of military experience,
or experience in railroad work, bank
ing, OF other lines of business that are
required in the workings of an army,
who wish to secure commissions in the
United States regular army officers re-
serve corps will meet this evening at
7:30 o clock in the old armory in the
city hall for the purpose of discussing
the proposition of securing a class to
take the army examination.
The United States requires about &C.,
600 reserve officers to officer proper
ly any volunteer army, and it now has
on hand 5000, so the need for men
who wish to serve their country when
an urgent call comes is apparently
great and the opportunity large. If
enough men are secured to take an ex-
animation, an officer will be secured
to come from Vancouver to instruct
the class and later give the examina-
ton i'll this city instead of Vancouver.
From ten to fifteen men are required
for the class.
The requirements are not so very
severe. The applicants must be between
