 Well you can't play ball all your life" he answered. T messed around in vaudeville, you know how an ath- lete can always do that, and when I got ready to quit I naturally headed for the stage. It's a good life at that, and of course playing ball is a lot easier especially as far as making mistakes is concerned. On the stage if you make a mistake, some one will cover it up for you and no one is the wiser, but when you are in ball game and you pull a boner, look out, some one is go- ing to land on you hard and you don't have much comeback.

 Although Donlin started his career in the west, he was born in the east and has lived there the major portion of his life. He knows the east, there is no getting around that and he likes to talk about it. He is a strong partisan of Governor Smith of New York He thinks there is one of the real honest men in the country and he would take his word where he wouldn't take other mems bonds.
 It is not expected that a ball player actor would have much interest in eco nomical, political or social problems of the day, but Donlin takes a keen in- terest in everything. He is well read and referred several times to the fight on the treaty of peace and the league of nations.
 And oh yes it is necessary to an nounce the fact that Mike Donlin is going to play ball in Phoenix this morning. He is going to turn out with the E,lks theater team and cavort around the diamond at Polk street, as in the days of yore. No doubt it will take him back to his sand lot days, but a little renewal of youth on Donlins part will probably not come in amiss. for he is not as young as he looks.
 Yes, girls, he does look rather young, if it wasn't for that slight tinge of grey around the edges of his volup- tous head of hair. And looking young he is forced to get out once in awhile and show the natives he can still play ball.
 '"There's one good game of ball left in everyone" he said. 'I don't dare go out and practice. If I did I wouldn't be able to play, but I'll last through

States Finances Improve.

Financially North Carolina Is about
$650O0O better off at the close Of the
fiscal year, December l, than it was
at the asme time one year ago, &C
cording to figures obtained at the
state auditors office.
Collections and disbursements dur.
ing the last IL months approximate
something more than $3,00O,0O0 In
excess Of the year preceding. Two
million dollars of this increase is due
to the fact that the school fund
came directly into the state treasury
this year and was disbursed by the
state instead of by the various coun-
ties.
The past November was the best
paying month, as during that time
the taxes collected totaled $685.
354.99. January made the poorest
record, the collections amounting to
only $645,914.01.

Opposition to the petition was bas-

two daily trains each way and the
change would subject the town and
