SPORT NOTES

JOie Ray again failed In his at
tempt to break the worlds mile rec
ord at Toronto.
Brown, according to Ed Robinson,
its coach, has its best machine in q
matter of five years.
Stu there is more real exercise In a
game of quolts than In watching a
championship football contest.
There are indications that Babe
Ruth is taking himself as seriously as
the publicity spreaders want the pub
lie to do.
There are few American homes that
do not contain a football hero of some
sort who at this season does not smell
of arnlca.
Jimmy Wilde, the worlds fyweight
boxing champion, will soon return to
this country and may be matched with
Johnny Buff.
If Shutting" Phil Douglas had ever
played with the st. Louis Cards we
might see some reason In his having
that sort Of a name
Jess Willard says he is laying deep
plans to beat Jack Dempsey. He'll be

yond Dempsey's reach.
There's this about rules pertaining
to the worlds series and Its after
math. II they can't be enforced they
had better be wiped of the books.
II the average student knew as much
about his lessons as he does about the
football prospects, human nature
would be almost too good for the re-
formers.
If the schedule makers had 1t to do
over again, some Of these football
teams, which come across with such
startling surprises, never would have
been on the program.
The Pittsburgh club will depend a
bit on Minneapolis In Its rebuilding
plans for next year. The Pirates
have an option on the Millers as part
of their deal sending Bill McKechnie
to Minneapolis.

TOBACCO

Tobacco is a filthy weed.
1t was the Devil sowed the seed,
1t drains your pockets, scents your
clothes,
And makes a chimney Of your nose.
There was idle Jerry Jones,
AS dirty as a pig,
He smoked when only ten years
old,
And thought it made him big;
No, l shall neither smoke nor chew
Nor befoul my breath nor brain,
My health, by God SO kindly
given,
I shall saeredly maintain.

Leaning well forward, in order to get
the maximum of leg covering out Of the
abominable kilt, The MacCuloch sided into
the thousandeyed thoroughfare. 1t was q
cold day, but he sweated from every pore;
his knees were moist with sweat; he lost
a pound in each hundred yards and took
twenty minutes to cover them. Distance
was all that he could cover. He felt the
pin feathers on his bowed legs curling.
His head ached.
He had no hope of finding the Scotchman;
he was not such fool as that. A drunken
brute possessed of so low a sense of humor
as the Scotcbman evidently possessed would
doubtless add thereto both speed and cum
Ming. The MacCulloch's sole desire was to
find a clothing store that had ready made
American uniforms for sale. Necessity is a
ruthless leveler; the Defiance bank presi-
dent had descended to the stratum Of hand
me downs.
Walking in what was probably an ante
republican Chinese fashion, he reached what
he now knows to be the Avenue de POpera.
1t required all his bravery to face It, but
he did so, and almost at once he espied a
window displaying uniforms of many a de-
scription.
He jumped to it, leaned still farther over
to ascertain the price of a creditable Amer
lean outfit there shown, and immediately
started erect for fear that be was not man
aging the rear of the kilt discreetly. Then
he discovered that these COMPOUNDED French
fellows don't tag their wares.
H went inside-it was now nearly mid
day. He didn't know what the cosmopoli-
tan statesmen would think Of a Scctchmnu
ordering an American uniform, but he had
to chance that.
Cosmopolitan salesmen-in Paris-are
never surprised at anything:
-Four hundred francs and the tax" said
this one.
The MacCulloch said something about in
quiring for a friend who wanted it for pri-
waite theatricals. He also said good morn
ing. He had only a hundred and twenty
seven francs fifty.
A few steps farther down the street he
had to look at the window of toy shop,
for fear that, viewing him in front, two
advancing fellow countrymen might rad his
nationality beneath his bare disguise. He
must have met Americans last night. They
might neet and recognize him now.
His head ached.
He noticed a British officer noticing hin.

Good heavens, perhaps the forever Lost

it at lots and lots of places, and it was
the same at all. He had always heard

vague sense of having to 60 somewhere
where he was not going, or having an en-
gagement that he certainly-not knowing
what it was-did not seem likely to keep.
But he laughed at that. 1t was funny, the
