Expert Says He's Sane.

Attorney Moran made an attempt to
establish that his client is insane.
But DIR. Clarence A. Neymann, super
intendent of the psychopathic hospital.
who examined Zagar some time ago,
stated his opinion that Zagar is sane.
1T seems to me that he had been
coached" said Doctor Neymann. But
we found no indication that he was
not responsible for his acts"
Doctor Krohn also believes that
Zagar Is sane.
When Zagar was being led hack to
his cell he was asked II he thought
himself sane.
"Get me right" he said. "Im all
O. X. In the upstairs. The only one
who's crazy Is the guy that's tryin.

See?'
The jury found Zagar guilty and he
was sentenced to he hanged.

HITTING THE BALL

When Babe Ruth, center fielder for
the New York American League base
ball club and holder of the worlds re-
cord for the number Of home run
drives in one season, steps to the bat
he hits and he hits hard. There is no
halfway business about Ruth, no fid-
die dee and fiddle dunn. Every day when
he goes out there, he goes out to hit,
just a little harder, just little oftener
than ever before. Just now he is well
on his Why this year to eclipse his own
best effort.
Most of us in other walks of life
are slackers as compared with Ruth's
standards. We dodge issues, rather
than meet them face to face. We hesi-
tate. We trifle. We don't go out each
day with the determination to hit hard
er and oftener than ever before. Even
those with this determination falter in
its execution. They don't keep them
selves fit SO that they can do their
best. Nightly merriment saps their
vitality and dulls their intellect.
Ruth chooses the materials with
which he works with care. The bat
must not be cracked and splintered.
It must be sound and hard and Of the
proper weight. Many of US go ahead
with the materials that come to hand
first and thus blast, in advance, what
ever opportunity We might otherwise
have.
There are Ruths outside of baseball.
but like that other record breaker
they will be found everlastingly hit
ting the ball.

THE FOURTH OF JULY


Columbia should be making definite
plans for the celebration of the Fourtl
of July. This is one holiday who's,
celebration has been improved. Other
days, once full of meaning and seriou.
observance, have lost much of theil
significance. People have forgotten
the meaning of the holidays in thel,
attempt to forget their work and trou-
b.es for one day and have good time.
A few years ago July 4 led all othei
holidays as a day Of mad folly. Bui
now has come the safe and sane
Fourth" and more proper observance
of the anniversary of the signing OF
the Declaration of Independence.
There are a great many ways OF
showing the honor paid to Independ-
ence Day. It offers big chances fol
entertainment. Historical pageant
and parade may be worked out easily
Sane yet beautiful exhibitions of fire.
works mark the feeling of joyful ma
ton. Some communities have pro-
gram which is followed almost iden-
tically each year. Instead Of becom-
ing tiresome such a plan becomes al
most as much of an institution as the
holiday itself.
This nation Is still a growing child
among nations. July 4 is her birth
day. She should celebrate it with the
youthful joy Of young country.

KING ALFONSO TO VISIT
SPANISH AMERICA

L1SBON.-king Alfonso of Spain, in
a recent interview, definitely expressed
his intention of visiting South Amer
lea, and he added land sooner than is
expected" 1t is needles to emphasize
the Importance of this visit for the
interests of both Spain and the South
American republics. The kings keen
ness, quick perception and sympathy,
and his close acquaintance with all
Spanish problems makes him an ideal
amba sSador between the Spanish Old
World and the New.
Recent events have combined to give
the visit to promise of success to rival
that of the prince of Wales last year
to Canada and the United States. The
South Americans whose knowledge of
Europe used to be commonly confined
to Paris, and not the real Paris but that
of the foreigner and tourist have been
brought into closer touch with Spain by
the war. and being unable TO go TO
France have visited the Peninsula.
They have also found that the products
Of Spain which they despised are ex-
cellent, and, in fact, they had been con-
