but enhght2ninE and Of nestinable
benefit 10 his hearers His interpre-
tauons of the Bible have been from
an advanced modern standpoint and
he has thrown light on many of the
more obscure points This was illus

II is needless TO say began Or.
Smith. that the book OF Revelation
forms one OF the backgrounds of the

that the book he studied in three d.

far distant future which Tennyson has
described as:

The Second section.

that which has caused n division over

author attempts to describe by sym

conflicts, and the mighty changes that
must intervene before the new heaven
and tho new earth are born. The
writer uses five symbols: % Seals

Phillies Secure
A Good Pitcher
In Lavender
Former Member Of Cubs
Expected To Be Big
Aid to Moran

James Lavender, the Phillies' new
pitcher is highlander who has won
considerable fame and salary IN this
line while member Of the Chicago
team. lie was member Of the Cubs
pitching staff for five seasons.
He is a native of the State Of Georgia
and is one Of the five hurlcrs who make
the state famous for sending out
moundsmen Of class. Nap Rucker. Henry
Douglass, Fred Toncy and J. Erskine
Mayer are the others.
Lavender was a long time coming TO
his own. as his i've seasons schooling
in the minors would indicate. His first
trial was with the Augusta club, of the
South Atlantic League, IN 1906. How
ever. his first real job was with the
Dlnvillc club, Of the Virginia League.
IN 1907. From this bush he was eX-
tracted by Connie Mack Manager Mack
took Lavender on for trial I'm the
spring of 1908. but released him option
ally to the fIolyoko club Of the Con-
necticut Nalley League.
Three Seasons with Grays
At the close Of 1905 Lavender was
recalled by the Athletic management
and released to the Providence club,
OF the big International League,
where he was compelled 20 lingcr three
seasons. While with Providence the
"Nontezuma Wonder" pitched some
splendid ball. notably his feat Of shut
ting out the Rochester team in both
games Of a double header that he
pitched against them on September o,
1909.
Purchased by the Chicago club Of the
National League in the fail OF 1911,
Lavender began operations IN the big
league in the spring Of 1912, and his
first season was q decided success.
Jimmy always had the delightful fac
ultv Of bursting into the sensational
or doing the unexpected when least
expected.
One day, back IN 1912, James pro-
cceded 10 clip the wings Of certain
Richard de Marquis Marauard. Of the
New York Giants, who had been soar
ING through the old National at an
amazing pace, having won nineteen
straight games.
Previous 10 this mighty feat Lavender
had qualified for the job by pitching
three consecutive runless games, and
although a recruit, Manager chance
considered him the proper selection.
/ or the many sensational pitching feats
/ credited 20 Lavender his 10 hit. 10 run
game against the New York Giants on
August 81, 1915, Was the masterpiece
Of his career.

Tales of q Wayside Tee

in direct control. The left is supposed
to act simply as steadying factor ln
holding the club, but 10 take very
little part in the actual stroke. II Is
much easier to control one hand and
ono wrist than two hands and two
wrists. The right-handed proposition is
without any doubt the one to follow.
Many bad putters are such merely be
cause they attempt TO use both hands
in the forward stroke and thereby
break the correct line.
