for the future? For instance. there has
been a great little dog winning all the
handicaps. Instead of being penalized
for each win, he continues. to be placed
on his weight mark. The result Is that
he keeps on winning and no encourage
ment Is offered to the other dogs run
ming with a bigger handicap.
Such system Is unequal and spoils
the beauty of handicap. The merit
of handicapping is in placing the dogs
where they will run. as nearly as pos
sible, dead heats. No action is taken by
this new club to encourage the hope that
some day with the same dogs running,
there will be closer finishes. The club
Of which you speak started under fine
auspices by good lot of people who
evidently want to keep the sport clean.
1t is decidedly elevating to the whole
sport of whppeting which. after all is
said and done, is one of the most inter-
esting and exciting of doggy entertain
ments.
Some Advice for Clubs.
However. before race meetings will
become popular with the public. certain
unpleasant features must be eliminated.
1t would expedite matters II liberal
minded committee of the club would
meet with some men of long experience
in the game. Suggestions could then be
advanced with hope to beneficial re-
suits
For one thing, and 1t Is a mighty
important thing too, affairs should be
arranged so that when one visits a rae
ing track he can see the dogs on their
marks at the scheduled time. no un-
necessary delays between heats and with
complete program that gives all the
information one could ask about the
dogs"

FACTS ABOUT BASEBALL

How many of the boys who play baseball in the streets Of American towns. in the empty lots and fields and in the schools, really know how and when baseball came into eXest- ence? It is now almost necessary to the happiness of every Amertcan boy. He knows what 1t means to say: Three strikes and you're out long before he has mastered his "A. B. Cs." and a bat and ball are his first real friends
 Many. many years ago. as far back as 1880, the Toys in New Eng land invented a garue which was lat CT Known as baseball They used a square instead of a diamond and had from 10 to I4 players on a side. The first team to score 100 runs wOu the game. Just think how funny lt would be today. if We had Go wait for one of our bis league teams to score that many runs. It might take month or even more.
 In lS45 the first real club was formed. They called themselves The Knickerbockers," and they played in the field where Madison Square now stands. in the center Of New York City. IL was the first team to play the game with nine on side. and 2l runs made the game The game was not a popular one
 One year later, a baseball conven- tion was held with nine teams repre- sented. Rules were made, rules which are being used today with but slight changes. The convention be- came an annual thing and teams multiplied by the hundreds. Base ball had al last become popular. To- day clubs and organizations exist in every large and snail town in the United States and that is not all. The boys in Alaska and in the Phil ippines and in Honolulu play Uncle Sam's game
 Baseball is really and truly Amer ican. It is just as much a citizen as any boy. Not all can be ny

LONG BEACH; CALIFORNIA

Written for the Christian Science Monitor by Rose Henderson. Spicy fragrance of pepper trees, and
 the yellew moon hung low. Dusky purple across the seas mur-
 murous ebb and flow. Roses riot, a blooming hedge. And the wind steals out of the des-
 ert's edge. Silvery eucalyptus leaves and the
 pungent bark dripped brown. Honeysuckles along the caves of the
 golden-%indo%ed town. Laughter deep in a porch's gloom, And the odor of crushed geranium
 bloom. Miles of shimmerins yellow sand
 and the road ground smooth as
 glass, Motors sweeping the orange band
 where the gleaming headlights
 pass. Night birds chorus among the vines, And starlight over the huddled
 pines. Shlmmering water and misty plain
 and lavender mouutain wall, Luscious orchards and ripened
 grain and the night winds tes-
 ert call. Age-old magic of earth and night
 and youths high trance; And the moon trailing her scarf of
 light where the bright waves
 dance.
