We read about the mothers Of the

With their gentle wrinkled faces and

They were "middled aged" at forty

And at sixty chung to shoulder shawls
and loved their little maps.
But l love the modern mother who

And understands the problems Of hel

She may boast that she is sixty, but
her heart is twenty three
My glorious, bright eyed mother who
is keeping young with me.

MANY an entry has been branded a

What Baseball Needs
BASEBALL needs, as q starter, the
- unprejudiced Judgment of a man
DARN after the manner Of Judge Lands
to insure justice and close observation
of certain wrinkles that, unless ironed
out promptly, may later turn into
breakers.
1t needs keener vision on the part
Of all magnates, who, for the protec-
tion of the game, which also means
their property, must be willing to look
few steps beyond the gate receipts.
Beyond this, 1t also needs closer
co operation among the players for the
general good of the game which fur
nishes their living.
Any number OF players knew most
Of the inside story which surrounded
the White Sox.
Suppose, with their inside knowl-
edge, they had collected all the facts
and insisted upon the crooked players
being brought to trial,
If they had, the player today would
be in control Of baseball, with. the mag
nate backed clean out of the frame.
1t is up to the player, more than any
one else, to protect his own game. 1t
might not be bad idea to have a
vigilance committee, built from one or
| two trusted men upon each club.
But unless both owners and players
work together for the game itself, either
side can toss n monkey wrench into the
machinery with devastating effect.
