Larned strong In 1902.

Larned made his initial appearance
in the first ten. the select circle ~ lawn
tennis. In 1892. twenty years before ne
lost the championship. He was rated
sixth that year and for the ensuing
years as follows: 1898, nth: 1894.
second 1925. second; 1895, second !;
1897. second 1898, not In first ten; 1899,
third; 1900. third 1901-2-3, first; 1904
s, third 1906, second 19O7-ll, first. He
has not been rated since that time.
Mclaughlin made his debut In the
first ten simultaneously with his first
appearance in the East. That was in
1909. He won the national interscholas-
tic title that year and did we'll enough
in other tournaments to get in sixth
place In the national rating That Is
where Larned got on his first appearance
in the upper strata. The next year
Mclaughlin moved up to fourth place
In 1911 the Comet was the runner up
to Larned and gained second place In
the official rating, and for the following
three years he was on top. Mclaughlin
might have broken into the upper circle
a couple OF years before had he played
In the East. for he won the Pacific coast
and Bay counties titles from strong
fields in 1907. and in 1903 won the Cali
fornia crown. but in those days. when
the East was considered as the real
home OF tennis. the East did not pay
much attention to the game OF the
Californians
On the face OF things there seems to
be no reason why Mclaughlin should
not be able TO make n strong bid. for his
lost laurels. 1t is true that the Comets
particularly energetic type of play must
have taken a lot out OF him, but those
who saw him beat Brookes and Wilding
will still argue that he had SO much in
him that he could stil lose lot OF pep
and be a winner.
Should Mclaughlin come back and
win the titfe his victory would be a pop
ular one. Mclaughlin in defeat has
had more personal and impersonal inter
est attached to him than most cham
pions have had In victory. II has been
limited that he has been doing come
serious playing and practising on the
quiet and there Is a chance that he may
surprise the tennis world.

Mt anywhere near his best to-day.
Young Lucien williams of Hills School.

at Ga. e..
II is true that Williams played a
highly praiseworthy game. trading drives
with his famous opponent and volleying

should have won by a far more decisive
score.
II may have been that the great
little Californian was content to go along
in easy stages, satisfied to. try out his
strokes, with an eye to harder matches
In the future. 1t was only when he vital

after It in earnest.

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE annual ma

made in the mems doubles, with seventy

will begin, with some Of the strongest
players in the middle West entered.
Tiidcn showed splendid form to-day In
defeating Samuel r. Hardy Of Chicago
By a score Of 6-1, 6--1. He swept the
veteran irresistibly before him by the
wonderful speed Of his attack. Hardy
managed to force Lindley Murray into
a hard Ave set match at Cincinnati last
week, but he was up against more
hopeless task this afternoon in trying
to meet Tilden's tremendous pace.
The clay court champion fairly
streaked about his court, volleying win
superlative skill, smashing with terrific
force and deadly accuracy and ripping
swift fore and back hand drives through
his opponents court in a manner that
left Hardy all at sea.
Veteran Lacks speed.
As a matter OF fact the veteran could
never ind sufficient speed of foot to get
into position to meet the ball as 1t new
from the champions racquet. He never
succeeded In gaining the net position
himself, as he had done against Murray,
for before he could make a start for the
barrier Tilden would have the ball
crashing back to his feet or through an
opening down the side lines for the ace
Richards went through by winning
two matches in the singles, c. ]. O'Con-
nell being his first victim by score OF
60, 6-l. and then the New York mar
vel took on 4. p. Hubbeil. one of the
Middle Vests high ranking men, and
conquered him at Ga. 6-1.
In both these encounters Richards
went wonderfully well. A majority OF
his points he won by splendid volleyins
from midcourt. with Hubbell vainly try
ing to coverd up the holes in his de-
fence that the boy champion laid bare.
Richards and Tilden are on opposite
sides Of the draw. and may yet meet In

ARE FARMERS PROFITEERS?

The decrease in the prices of live hogs
and cattle has raised the question Wether
or not the farmers of the country nave
been profteers and, therefore, responsible
for the high cost of meats. If they are prof
iteers thew deserve the same punishment as
anv other person committing the same crime.
But the facts do not prove that they are.
They have been the fortunate victims Oh
favorable circumstances which were not Oh
their making and over which they exercised
practically no control.
Profiteering is making an excessive proht
on commodity by being able to fix the
prices either at which it may be bought or
sold. The farmer does not make the prices
at which his products are sold. He IS able
to exercise little, if any, influence over
them. Hogs and cattle must be marketed
at fixed times in the ages of the ANIMALS
else the cost of feeding beyond that time
becomes so great that it not only consumes
the increase in the value of the animals, but
takes off considerable portion of that
which early and enforced maturity makes
nossible. For instance if hogs matured by
age for a profitable market in the fall are
fed for any perlOQ a1CSr JIG AlU0hol1lNU w
velopment of the animal is accomplished
the cost is greater than the increased value
of the animal. For these reasons the farm
er must market his raw meat product when
matured.
The farmer does not fix the price he re-
ceives for live stock, nor for his cotton. That
is the work of the buyer. 1t has been SAID
in criticism of the farmer that it IS good
thing he has no control over the prices at
which he must sell, else the world would
,starve because of his extortions. But that
charge is libel upon his honesty. He asks
what the buyer will give for what ne has
to sell and what the seller will take for that
which he must buy. If an individual can
become profiteer when placed in such an
economic situation he is a greater tnancler
than Morgan or Rockefeller ever were.
Hogs and other products have shown
phenomenal advances over prices of hVe
wears ago. What has kept prices up to the
high level is not the making of the farmer
It is an opportunity made by others into
which he has fitted with profit, possibly
but with full realization that the profit
came to him instead of being planned by
him.

WHY DO THEY DO TIP

In the penitentiary and the jails of Geor-
gia are many prisoners who are held for
stealing automobiles. Some of them are
men who had previously enjoyed the re-
spect and confidence of acquaintance in
both business and social life.
The mental disorder which leads young
boys and mature men alike to steal automo-
biles is an intensified exhibition of the men
tai disorder which for years has been known
to medical Jurisprudence as kleptomania.
Position and education have nothing to do
with the disorder. They may not need the
article, but they cannot check the impulse
to steal. Friends often make provision for
the payment of stolen articles in order to
hide the disgrace. A well-known jurist, COM
menting on case of this sort before him,
once stated that the impulse was rever-
sion to primitive conditions when humans,
like monkeys, stole the food from their fell
lows from instinct He asserted that a gen
eral desire to possess a certain class OF
things speaking specifically of bicycles,
brought the dormant element of kleptoman-
ism into activity. 1t looks as though his
logic were sound, and that it forms the basis
of automobile stealing which covers the en-
| tire country.
