the games from the Giants by their
twirling.
1918-George Whiteman, veteran

his batting and fielding.
1919-Walter Reuther, Red pitcher,
by his batting, and Eddie Roush, Red
center fielder, by his fielding, were the
big factors in most of the defeats of

Private of Princess
Pats Turns to
Farming

Ottawa, Ont. E. Fagg served as
a private with the Princess Pats dur
ing the war He won fame in a famous
regiment for steadiness and courage.
When he came home he cast about for
something to do. He thought of clerk
ing. He figured that if he worked hard
at desk for forty years and had good
luck and was frugal he might save
enough to pay his funeral expenses.
So he changed his mind and decided
to go upon the land He didn't know
much about farming but he set himself
to study it and mastered at least the
theory of soil cultivation. Then he
bought on time with the Government
of Canada as his creditor, 100 acres of
land near Charmangy, Alta.
Il see no reason why the qualities
that made me a good soldier" said
Private Fagg, Ought not to make me
successful farmer"
He built a house on his land, got
himself team of horses and FARMING

Giovanni BattiSta
Roger 1638-172O
By Michael Kurzen.

There were two families having sim
liar names who made violins in Italy
and both were prominent in the indus
try. One spelled the name Roger and
the other Rugger, or, as often seen on
their labels, Ruggerius and Rogerius.
They occupied a very important place
in the violin world of their day, and
their work now is classed with the best
and is exceeded in point of tone, work
manship and varnish only by the three
greatest masters Clio. Batttsta Rogeri
was a pupil of Nicola Amati working
for a short time side by side at the
bench with Stradivari. His work is
always of high order. His best crea-
tons approach those of Amati in work
manship, while in tone they fully equal
in most instances the violins of his ia
nous master. Some unfortunate max
ers of violins were born to blush I'M
seen" inasmuch as they have been de-
prived of fame justly due them, as their
labels, at an early date, were taken
from their instruments and the names
of more famous makers inserted in
stead. Giovanni was one of these
many OF his instruments, both violins
and 'celloS, add to the reputation OF

| is in this manner that many an Italian
liutaro has, as far as human credit is
| concerned, wasted his sweetness on the
desert air By Rogeri's authority, we
are informed that he was native OF
that centre of Italian culture, Bologna
He signed himself "Bononiensis,
which signifies of or from Bologna
Inasmuch as he established himself il
Brescia about 1860, it may be surmisec
that his birth occurred between 163S
and l640. Surprising that 1860 was thu
year of his leaving Cremona and tn,
shop of Amati, it seems doubtful if
as most writers assert, he could have
worked side by side with Stradivari fo
any considerable period, for that young
man was only then about to enter int
his apprenticeship with Amati, being
but sixteen years of age. 1t is NOR
probable that Rogeri's approaching de
parture made room at the bench for tn
newcomer.
Rogeri made two types of violins
one quite fiat and the other highe
arched, the latter bearing greater re
semblance to the work of Amati thai
the former, not only as regards arching
but outline of model as we'll. Those h
wrought of the Amati type are amonj
the best made in Italy after that famou
pattern. In point of varnish, he ex
celled to a very marked degree. Hi
varnlsh is soft in texture, rich in color
and applied in a mastery manner. Il
point OF wood, he ranks among tn
foremost Italian makers 1t is invari
ably beautifully marked in his violins
