If will-to-win spirit can be in

American to Be Tough

"That American League race is 60
ing to break somebody's heart. Five
clubs in the league have a good
chance for the pennant
New York, st. Louis and Cleve-
land look like they're ready to fight
for it all the way and they have all
the material to battle with. Wash
ington is an improved ball club and
will be in there helping to make it a
battle royal.
"Our boys figure the real dark
horse of the league is the Boston
Red Sox Any club with a punch Like
Hugh Duffy has cornered is bound
to be dangerous even IL it does look
weak on pitchers. Too much stress
should not be laid upon the reported
dissensions in the New York Yankee
ranks. Every team has such occur
rences once in a while and because
hey don't always get into print the
fans may think that all clubs get
along like a nice little country fam
lily. AS a rule they do, but some
times a little temper causes a lot of
smoke and soon dies away Getting
out there every day of the week

NEW YORK, April 1S.-Giants sure

or five teams in the American
League
So Johnny Evers, the little square
jawed Trojan, who is helping Kid
Gleason run the White Sox, sizes up
the 1922 pennant races.
THE Giants are so per cent strong
.er and they ought to win easier than
they did last year. | know lot
about McGraw's team and | have
had good chance to get the inside
on them this spring" Evers said.
"The Sox all agree that the New
York ihfield is the sweetest thing in
the major leagues. SINNERS, sure
to make good in center, rounds out a
fine outfield and the pitching staff
is good enough to go through a hard
season.
"Neff ought to be the best pitcher
in the National League and Toney
and Douglas ought to be big win
ners, Barnes is one of the best re-
lief pitchers in the game and there
are several goodlook.ng young
pitchers.
''The Giants have punch that is
being overlooked. The ST. Louis
Cards by no means have the dyna-
mite of the circuit cornered. The
Giants have a kick just about as
good.

NO MEDIUM ROAD

IRON ths lives Of great men. whose
1 deeds are recorded in printed
words, If we set ourselves seriously to
the task we can CLEAN the veriest
flowers of wisdom.
Their stories are told in friendliness
for the encouragement Of others.
Their nOblest sufferings and stead
fast faith stand up like guide-posts
to direct tired, disheartened travellers
to a pleasant destination.
Their experiences were the common
experience of mortals, filled with hard
ships, chatting and CALLING when ac-
cepted, and when overcome as sOOth-
ing to the burning flesh as oil.
If you will read carefully you will
not be long in finding that these men
pursued no medium road.
From the bottom to the top of
their career they proceeded straight
ahead, never feigning or falsifyfng
their emotions, never deceiving them
selves or others, which made conf
dence sure and success certain.
They accepted life as a prose ideal
and went gladly about making it a
glorious bit of poetry, radiant with
sentiment and love, leaving their
achievements behind so that another
generation might gather courage and
inspiration.
And this they did by doing their
full duty, never turning back or fal-
tering.
They developed the habit Of look
ing up, thinking above the heads Of
others and holding all the while to
their purpose.
Conscious of humans frailties they
were ever humble, patient with
others and severe with themselves,
always exacting from their own
brains and bodies every ounce of
energy available and doing their ut
most whether tongues wagged praise
or condemnation.
They priced self-respect above the

And when the shadows came, the

In their brief span they rose from
obscurity to eminence, setting an
example for the humble youths Of
today and tomorrow-the boys and
girls, some of whom are wondering
how they too can climb to the
heights and become a light to the
generations not yet born.
The answer is: By avoiding the
medium road, by walking strong In
faith. by keeping faith with Truth
and Mercy and Love with God!

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"TUM BIER"

MOST Of us are familiar with
AVA the Chinese dolls or toys
which, having a weight in their
roun'ed base, stand upright no
matte, how often they may be
knocked aver, and it is from
these same toys. very popular in
Italy and other parts of Europe
during the Fifteenth and Six
teenth centuries, that the word
''tumbler" as n synonym for
"drinking-glass" has come down
to us-the toys being known as
'.tombOli."
The earliest tumblers of which
there is any authentic record
were made of wood or metal,
rounded on the bottom and so
weighted that when empty and
placed upon their side they Inn
mediately sprang upward, as II
asking to be filed. The weight

tered the center Of gravity SO
that they remained bolt upright.
Tumblers Of this nature are

inscription carved deep In their
sides:
Lay me down when empty.
