fact that some one may strike him
out is merely a detail. No harrow
ing thought of his failure ever fol-
lows him to the next attempt.
The same thing applies to Cobb.
We recall one occasion late in 1915
when Cobb went to bat 2! con-
secutive times without striking a
safe blow. This long span Of hit
less attempts would have cracked
the heart of the average player.
But on his 25th time up Cobb was
as keen, as alert and as confident,
SO far as any one could tell, as il
he had been getting his two day.
No man can be champion who is
easily discouraged. For slumps and
of-days are coming to all. The
sole chance to reach the top is TO
take what lessons failure has to
offer and then let the rest OF 1t go.
No one is good enough to get by
without an off-spell. And no one
Is good enough to let. an off-spell
crack his confidence and then beat
the field. Quick discoura8ement
has produced more tail-end ball
clubs than inability to bat. pitch
and field.
The Chicago White Sox have been
counted out Of It because their
spirit was supposed to be broken.
But suppose they decide to make
fight for Il again?

Speaking Of the Marquard.Seele

SOLDIER SETTLERS THRIVE

By United Press.
Edmonton, Alta, Oct. 20.-More
money has been loaned to soldier
settlers in northern Alberta than
in any other part of Canada. Al
bertans point to this fact as a tri-
butte to the attractions of the soil
and climate of the province Through
the Edmonton office which covers
the northern half of the province,
loans to soldier settlers have been
approved to the extent of $4,000
600 and of this amount nearly $10,-
100000 has been disbursed About
5000 soldiers have been actually
located on farms with an equal num-
Der settled on homestead lands for
which no loans are necessary.
Most of the soldier settlers are
making good, according to the Sol
dier Settlement Board, and are shar-
ing'i in the profits of the bumper har-
Vesf.

'MGrried the Ashes
of Japanese LOUer
BY United Press.


Tokyo. (By Mail. .)-The rather
unusual ceremony of uniting in mar
riage the ashes of two lovers took
place a few days ago in the province
Of Izu The young man and woman
in question had been attached to
each other for some time, but cir
cumstances prevented them from mar
rying. In despair they committed
"shinju', or double suicide, as is
quite common under such circum-
stances in Japan, by leaping into
the sea from a cliff at Atami, a
well known bathing resort. Their
remains were cremated and the Budd-
hist wedding ceremony then perform
ed over the ashes, as, according to
Buddhist belief, this marriage will
carry over into the next world.
