for HIM. Stop the game to relacc
your shoe; shift your glove around or
tip your mates to do something of the
sort so as to get little respite for
your pitcher to enable him to steady
down.
Don't Fail Pitcher.
Remember always that a pitcher is,
in large measure. dependent upon
his catcher for success. Don't fail
your pitcher. Don't have him mis-
place his confidence in you. Help him
help him-and then help him some
more.
It's up to the Catchar-no one else
to detect the weakness Of the batter.
When you're meeting a batter for the
first time it's more or less Of a guess
as to what he can hit--or what he
cant hit. Therefore, call on your
pitcher for his best pitch. If that
fools the batter, you can try it again.
But don't oVerdo it with that pitch on
one batter. He'll learn that deceiver
then il won't be any good as fool
er after while.
If the new batter hits the Offering
of your pitcher, don't let your pitcher
serve up another like it next time.
Try the batter on a different kind of
pitch. If he hits that, try another.
He can't hit all of them. When you've
found a ball that he can't hit, have
your pitcher specialize thereafter in
feeding him that kind-and stay away
from giving the batter anything that
he can hit.
Call for Mixture.
Curve ball pitching is rather firing
on the arm. So don't call for two
many curves or you'll wear out your
pitcher before the nine innings are
over. Call for a MIXTURE OF pitches.
That gives his arm relaxation and
will save its energy. That is vital,
Keep it in mind. Save your pitchers
arm as much as possible.
1t is the Catcher's duty to signal TO
the pitcher as to what sort of bali
should be thrown. The pitcher de
ponds upon his catcher for that.
The catcher. being the only man
who stands facing the entire playing
field, is the man who must be alert
for incorrect plays by his mates and
he must be the brains of the infield
whenever the enemy has runners Oh
the bases. It's up to the catcher to
signal to the pitcher and the infielders

Decencv and Bedtime.

"AIl decent people should he in bed
bv one" Such is the dictum of an
eminent uplifter. 1t is calculated to
startle even a world familiar with the
intellectual divagations of uplifters.
The quality Of decency has often
been debated. 1t does not appear that
a universal satisfactory definition has
vet been reached. But a time limit
on sscency is something new
by what magic has one O'Clock in
the morning become the yitching hour
that divides the sheep from the goats.
MANY respectable citizens are not abcd
at that hour. Is their re~spectab.llty
but a cloak for indecency?
III is hard to believe that n virtue
can be SO accidental. None win deny
that one O'Clock is a very good hour to
be abed.
1t is quite late enough for those who
have to be downtown in the morning.
Still. 1t is easy to imagine sufficient
reasons, not discreditable, either. for
being up even later.-New York Tri-
bune.

"What was you a-doin' here
a-talkin' to my ~gyurl?"
CTO BE C~ONTINUED.)
NO REASON FOR CONFUSION
Christian Chronology Really Quite
Simple Matter, Though II Requires
a Little Explanation.

Using the birth of Our Lord as n
starting point for counting time did
not become general until the Chris
tian religion had made considerable
progress. Some confusion arises from
overlooking the fact that the ancient
nations had their own systems and
their Owl starting points. For In
stance, the Romans counted from the
founding of their city, Rome, and
when Our Lord IA born ii was the
year 153 according to Roman chronol-
ogy. Having taken the year in which
point of the new o r Christian chronOl-
ogy. the years preceding that starting
point could only be counted as years
before Christ and the farther you 20
back into the past the greater tier
number, just as the greater the num-
Der the farther you come down from
the starting point towards the pres
ent. There Is nothing confusing In
this, and the same principle Is ap-
piled on any through railway time
table. A transcontinental timetable
counts distances from a terminal
both ways. one way east and the
other way west. In u chronology
the year of the birth of Our Lord il
the starting point, and the years are
counted both ways-those that had
passed before that event and those
that have passed since that event.
This system Is. Of course. in use only
in Christian countries. The Jews be-
gin TO count from the creation. and
there is no counting backwards he
cause IL is impossible to go back of
that event.
