Grams Into Ounces.

Her els mnemonic for changing
grams into ounces: "By five fairy
figures ranged, stop gram for ounce
is changed" The important point is
that beginning "Stop o." The formu-
la is, multiply the grains by .O3527.
The "stop O" recalls the decimal
point and following zero; the num-
Der of letters in each of the last four
words-3, 5, 2, recalls the figures.
1t is easy to remember also that
456 grams about equal a pound and
that 567 grams are almost exactly 20
ounces avoirdupois.

CICOTTE DEVELOPED
INTO HURLING STAR
Secured by Chicago White Sox
at Waiver Price. ~
Stocky Frenchman Did Not Amount
to Much While With Red Sox--
Studied Hard Hitters of League
in Spare Moments.

The Boston Red Sox, taking stock
in 1912, decided that Pitcher Eddie
Cicotte was of no further use to them.
Eddie, therefore, was put on the mar
ket. Nobody got hurt in scramble
for his services, and finally the Chicago
Americans took him at the waiver
price. Nobody shouted "Cheap at half
the price!" They figured the Sox grab
bed hurler for batting practice.
They figured thusly because Cicotte
had been sort of an in-and-outer in
his five years with the Boston team,
and it wasn't likely that he would ever
improve much. The climate of the
Windy City, or the sting of being cast
aside, must nave had an influence on
the stocky Frenchman.
He went along smoothly enough af-
ter landing at Chicago. But wise Ed
die was doing more than time with
the Sox. He studied the batters in
his spare moments, invented new stuff,
perfected his control and bettered
himself in every respect.
Then he blossomed out. Starting in
1916, he began to burn up the league,
not with speed, but with his great
