Higgins team has five games to
play. Three victories out of the five
starts will clinch the pennant, for
should the Indians win four games at
Chicago they would still be half a
game behind New York.
One Victory Creates TIE.
The Giants are SO firmly intrenched
In the lead today, thanks to their vic.
tory at st. Louis while the lowly Phil.
lies throttled the Pirates, that they
need but one more victory to be sure
OF a tie should Pittsburgh win six
straight games, and two victories to
clinch the National League flag.
This was an off day for the Giants
who are on the road, but 1t promised
to be a busy one for the Yankees
who were scheduled to play off a
postponed game with the scrappy St.
Louis Browns.
In tackling the Browns, New York
had no easy assignment. Urban
Shocker, cast off by the Yanks and
now ranking as one of the greatest
pitchers in the American League, was
ready to start against the Yankees
and the records for the 1921 season
show that Urban has been poison to
the men of Higgins" all year.
Bush May Make Trouble.
There Is one other hurdle New
York must take before the schedule
is played out-Joe Bush. Higgins
team must face the Red Sox at the
Polo Grounds October 2 and in case
they have failed to clinch the pen
nant by that time Bush will loom
up as quite an obstacle. However,
this game comes on the last day of
the American League season in New
York and Yankee fans are not worry
ing over much about 1t.
Babe Ruth. with a fine new record
OF ffty-eight home runs to his credit,
Is the man Of the hour. His hitting
won two games from the Indians.
The prospect Of seeing Ruth In the
world series is the subject wherever
the fans gather. What Ruth will do
against the Giants is q prospect that
New York fans, especially those who
follow the Yanks, are bordering over.
Ruth's terrific hitting In yesterdays
game was the brand that no pitcher
could have wtthstood. His two home
runs took the heart out Of the In
oians. 1t appears that when he paved
rhe way the men behind him cannot
help hitting.
The Indians were idle today. They
are headed for Chicago, where they
have four games to play against the
White Sox. They have not yet given
up hope Of winning the remnant.

RIPPING RHYMES
By Walt Mason.


DlJlC<t1lON
When my old COW was lying i'll,
my neighbor. Chester White. came
from his cottage on the hill, and
watched throughout the night. He
placed a poultice on her brow and
hushed her anguished groans, and
helped to save that valued COW,
which cost me forty bones. And
when the long sad night was done,
it's hours of sorrow spent. and 1 pro-
duced my roll of mon. he would not
take a cent. Nay. nay" he said,
1--WE neighbors are, as neighbors long
we've stood, and talk of pay would
only mar the joy of doing good"
And l admired him as he went, and
said, "He beats two bands, the man
who would not take a cent for lend
ing helping hands," And he restor-
ed the healthy faith 1 knew when I
was young; my faith in man had
grown a wrath, so often I'd been
stung. But now he comes to get my
pillow, my grindstone and my spade,
reminding me that my old COW had
died but for his aid. He borrows
everything / have. my stove and rub
Der plant, my bitters and my bees
wax salve. my washtub and my aunt.
And now 1 don't allow a I,nt to work
and draw no pay; though he has only
earned a cent, he takes that cent
away. If some one helps me crank
my Ford, or get the butter churned,
1 take him where my coin is stored,
and pay him what he's earned.

@. Please tell me the origin of
Decoration DAY.. il. A.
A. The custom of decorating in
memory of the dead is so ancient
that its origin is lost. Since May
5, 1868, certain states have observed
May 30th as the anniversary upon
which the graves of war veterans
should be decorated. This custom
was inaugurated by General John
A.. Logan, commander-in-chief of
the G. A. r., who on May 5th 1868,
issued an order appointing May 80
of that year as the day for decorat-
ing the graves of Civil War vete-
rams. There is no national law on
the subject, the states which observe
the day having adopted the GUS
tom singly. 1t is probable that May
80 was chosen 10 commemorate the
date of the discharge of the last I'M
ion volunteer of the Civil War.
@. How many bills will it take to
weigh as much as a. silver dollar?
HI. T.. U.
A. Twenty and one-half bills
weigh practically the same as sill
yer dollar.
Q. Which of the states of the I'm
ion are commonwealths?-W NJ. A.
A. Each of the states is a COM
monwealth, but Virginia, Massachu-
sets, Pennsylvania and Kentucky
are officially designated as common
wealths.
@. Why is a receptacle for hold
ing tea called a caddy?-H. Z.
A. Chinese "catty' is a specific
weight equal to one pound and a
half ~avoirdupois. A 'caddy" is a
corruption of the Chinese word cat
ty. which is also used to designate
small packages of fine tea made
up for export.
@. Which is the muddiest river in
the United States?--N. S.
A. The Geological Survey says
hat the Missouri river carries more
silt than any other in the United
States, with the possible exceptions
of the Rio Grande and the Colo
RADIO. Each year it carries 381 tons
of dissolved and suspended matter
for every square mile of country
drained by it or more than ~123,O0O,,-
coo tons, most of which reaches the
Gulf of Mexico.
Q. How can I join the Royal Can
adam Mounted Police?-D. A. T..
A. 1t would be necessary to APP
ply to the Office of the Commission
err of the Royal Canadian Mounted
Police at Ottawa. However, only
BRUSH SuDJeClS are peiiS SiSuSSO
for this service.
O. Where is constellation known
as the Little D~ipper?-C. B.
A. The Little Dipper revolves
around the North Star. this star be-
ing in the end of its handle.

A MODEL
BY DIR. w. e. BARTON

The story is that of a man OF
African descent, a resident of Ken
lucky, had been sentenced to hang.
At first he was not greatly inter-
ested, but as the date of his execu-
ton drew near, he grew apprehen-
sive. He mentioned the matter to
the %jailer, who suggested that he
write to the governor, and offered
to serve as amanuensis. Nose took
five minutes to consider. and COM
posed a letter as follows:
Dear Marse Guv'nah: They is
fixing to hang me come Friday, and
here it am Tuesday. Nose john
son."
I venture to think that few gov
ernors have " received an appeal
for executive clemency which would
be likely to go farther than this
one. The governor certainly would
read it through If he began it, and
I am certain that this is not true of
all petitions received by governors
and other people. This letter stat
ed the situation in sufficient detail:
was accurate in it's dates; and it put
the case squarely up to the gov

L do not know what the governor
did about it. My W heart goes out
to Nose. l read so many tedious
letters, explaining to me at weari-
some length what the writers want
I should be disposed to do much
fer a man who could state his case
so concisely as Nose.
The ability to write a good letter.
to say what needs to be said. con-
cisely, c~ourteously, tactfully and lu-
cidly, and then to stop with a clear

If it be objected as a defect IN
the letter of Nose that he did not
tell the governor precisely what he
wanted, even this 1 consider a
virtue. Even governors must have
a certain satisfaction in exercising
some degree of initiative and MOI do
all the time what they are told to do
or not to do.
