(5Y ROBERT L. RIPLEY.)

The seventh revival OF the historic
Olympic games will be held this sum-
mer in Antwerp. Athletes from all
parts OF the world will gather in Bel
GUM and records are sure to fall.
They always break recordsl Each
Olympiad seems to Guido the per-
formances of the preceding one.
The world is growing physically
stronger, larger. and better. This is
true. The athlete of today is supe-
rior to any other of all time.
You will see athletes perform In
Antwerp this summer who make
those famous old athletes OF ancient
Greece and Rome seem childish in
comparison. You will see at least n
half dozen discus throwers, for ex-
ample, who can beat the nncents
at their own game by many feet.
The Marathon runners of today
could take Pheidippides, the winner
of the original Marathon, and lose
him before the race was half over.
Modern athletes have run the Mara
thon over practically the same ground
as traversed by old Pheidippides In
bringing home the word of victory
and in much shorter time.
or course, there are few authentic
records of the Hellenic heroes, but
those we do have afford us conclu-
sive proof that the living race Is far
superior physieally-and mentally
to any people of the past.
AS Il matter of fact there is not n
record of n popular event that has
stood twenty years. Very few rec
ords have stood ten years.
O'Conner's broad jump record OF "a
feet II IA inches has lasted nine
teen years. Al Shrubb holds few
middle distance marks, which he
made in 1903 and 1904, and Ray
Ewry holds some jumping marks
made about the same time.
More than twenty worlds records
have been tied or broken in the last
two years,

HELPS DEFEAT ROBINS

Jacksonville, Fla, April 2.-Babe
Ruth is feeling chesty today. The
homerun king poled out his first real
homer of the season in a game
against the Dodgers yesterday and
helped the Yankees to win. Babes

Batting practice was the order for
the Dodgers today following their

the Robins garnered only five hits
in nine innings.

on it's stomach. The same might be
said of the human race. The prin-
ciple reason for physical advance
ment then is food. The modern man
would turn up his nose at the diet
of the old days. The science of
cooking and living conditions are so
much improved that this fact alone
would account for the steps for
ward.
Another prime factor is the
higher development Of nervous en-
ergy in the individual of today.i The
cause for this is easy to find-wider
fields of endeavor, competition in the
fight for existence, greater variety of
interests, and a thousand and one
things which call for quicker action
and thought than in the olden days
Increased population of the earth
Is a factor as it means a proper
tionately larger number of athletic
competitors. Then, too, the science of
training has increased the possibili-
ties of all athletes.
$50 it is today--as we advance in
education, science, and cleaner liv-
ing-records will continue to fall.

ONE OF the largest retail dealers
in a neighboring city has made a plain
statement in regard to prices which is
worth considering. He gives il as his
opinion that the retailers safest
course at this time is in rapid liaui-
dation and the purchase Of new stock
at future prices, which will be from IS
to so per cent lower. II would be an
error, he declared. to carry over any of
this falls stock to sell next year, and
one that many merchants are liable
to make il they continue to endeavor
to hold up prices or let themselves
down easy. This statement was en-
ployed to illuminate discussion Of the
apparent tendency OF merchants to
mark down only under the spur of
actual necessity. II is pointed out as
practically impossible for all retailers
to liquidate at the last minute, or af-
ter January list, when reductions be-
come as general as they are drastic.
The proper move for the retailer to
make is quick and heavy mark downs
thus taking the initial loss immediate
ly and later being enabled to make up
the difference on stock purchased at
new prices. The quicker stocks are
disposed Of, according TO this large
operator. the better the merchants OPP
portunity to make some sound money
later.
There is no doubt that people arc
much more cautious about buying than
they were year ago. They are look
ing for bargains. and unless they can
be shown real reduGipns in COM
modites they will hold on to their
money until such conditions prevail.
