THE opening of every tennis season
L is the signal for an outbreak OF dis
cussions on the question Of professional
tennis and the likelihood of its gaining
headway. We read much that appears
to show that tennis is rapidly being
commercialzcd. while other articles
prove lust as conclusively that there Is
not chance that professionalism, can
ever gain a foothold in the came. Ihese
depend entirely upon the viewpoint OK
the writer, and are based more on de-
alone who can tell whether or not there
is chance of professional tennis.
Let me make my position clear at
once. am not, never have been and
never will be an advocate Of profes-
sionalism in tennis. would fight 1t
TO The limit. Yet l frankly believe that
tennis is seriously threatened. not by
any attempt on the part of promoters
to buy the players through huge sala-
ries, but by a mistaken attitude taken
on the question by n certain element in
tennis. l know that ll'the men who
have taken the stand on rigid en- :
forccment of the amateur rule have
Jnnc so with the highest ideals an
greatest desire to protect the game from
the very t-ing that they are going to
create.

prepared to accept orders for inme-

We make this preliminary an

motorist may plan to see this re-
markable car and arrange for a
demonstration early in the week.
Up to now the Jewett has been
displayedonly privateexhibitions.
But good news-important news
cannot be suppressed. That is why
thousands of people are waiting for
this car with an eagerness that is
quite without precedent.
The word has gone forth that the

In motor car value-a fine, high
powered six at price that is little
less than sensational. Though in
complete, that description fits the
car with absolute accuracy.
What the public does not know
is this: The Jewett is a very comfort

beautiful body lines and every
appointment that a critical man

ffty-horsepower six-cylinder motor
that will develop speed of sixty
miles per hour or throttle down to
a snail's pace in traffic.
It is built on a specially designed
frame that cannot sag or weave. Its
springs are unusually long and fex-
ible. The body is hung close to the
ground and perfect distribution of
weight insures the calm, steady rid
ing qualities of an ocean liner.
Though very high powered and
brilliant in performance, it is a miser
on fuel consumption and will turn
up amazing mileage on its over
size cord tires. Such, in brief, is the
Jewett. And the price is $1065

Just now we will say no more.
There are but seven days before the
Jewett will be here to tell its own
story as no words could ever tell it.
Come in at that time. See the car

any angle that your experience sug-
gests. Then, decide whether it is or
is not the first real quality six at q

Used by Physicians for
Thirty Years

MADE POOR RENT COLLECTOR
indianapolis Man Evidently Too Good

of Business.

Bachelor Joe Stokes, the druggist,
never gets peace from his storytelling
friends.
Joe owns some rental property in
one of the industrial districts. Things
have been bit slow in industry lately
and Joe has had trouble collecting his
rents. His real estate broker con-
stantly was returning word that he
could not collect.
"Ill go out and collect it myself"
Mr.. Stokes said, bit peevishly-that
is, if Joe ever gets that way.
Anyhow, a day or two later Joe
started out on a rental collection tour.
Late that afternoon he returned to
his drug store. An unusual little smile
was working at the corners of Joe's
mouth.

Cucumbers History.

A strange recipe was once given for
the use of cucumbers. 1t stated, peel
off the cucumber, slice it, pepper it,
put vinegar to it, and then throw it
out of the window. 1t is, of course,
difficult to account for tastes; but this
rather suggests advice prompted by
an enfeebled digestion. The cucumber
has for centuries had a place in the
worlds dietary table. We have biblical
authority for the statement that when
the Israelites complained to Moses,
they said: 1--WE remember the fish
which we did eat in Egypt; the cucum-
Der and the melons" There may be
imaginative minds who will see here a
link with that popular English dish of
today, salmon and Chicago

WORCESTERSHIRE 2SzsXIN4
THE legends say children were first
l. To be abroad that Easter day
When morning out of darkness burst,
And angels rolled the stone away.
For children's hearts are quick to feel
The deadenng pail of mortal pain,
And children's hearts are first to heal
When light and comfort come again.
And they had loved the Lord Christ's face,
And on His knees had laughed and cried,
And heard Him say the heavenly place
Is where all child-like souls abide;
And they had often heard Him tell
Strong men by pride and greed dehled
That they could never please Him well
Till they were humble child
And they had heard the tale that grieves
All little hearts: how One SO dear
Was nailed upon a cross with thieves,
And tortured with poisoned spear;
And how the temples wondrous veil
Was riven by the lightning stroke,
While, mingled with the womens wall,
The earthquake and the thunder broke;
And how black night came down at noon,
And ghosts from graves that opened wide
SkullSed out beneath blood-red moon,
When He that loved the children died.
For two long days no girl or boy
In Galilee or Jordan plain
Could laugh or sing, for hope and joy D..
In every little heart was slain.
But when the earth that third day
Was flooded with such golden light
AS since the world was born
Had come to dazzle human sight,
Then every child, the legends say,
Knew that the time at an end,
Knew that the stone rolled away,
And flew to meet the risen Friend.
And long before the Magdalene
Had reached the empty sepulchre,
Or Peter heard what she had seen,
Or fleet John fastened after her,
The children had gone forth and found
The Master in the garden walk
And scattered lilies on the ground,
And seen His smile, and heard Him talk
No child puny, halt, or lame,
Or hungry, in tatters clad,
But clothed if in light they came,
And all were whole, and strong, and glad.
They throng along the Kedron rill,
They thread the city through the gates,
Straight up to Joseph's garden hill,
Where He that loves the children waits.
They dance, they sing, they climb the trees,
They circle round in ring and file;
They know they cannot fail to please,
And win the guerdon of His smile.
He lifts His hand: &" bore the pain
OF death for men by sin defiled;
| rise henceforth to live and reign
Lord of the Kingdom of the Child"
They vanish, and He stands alone;
And when the women to weep,
The garden flames with flowers new-blown-
The children are at home asleep.
"What makes that garden spot SO bright?"
The learned rabbis stroked their chns;
They knew not yet that love is light,
That knowledge fails where love begins.
But somehow still Easter morn
The world is beautiful again, ..,. ...
And in each child like heart is born
Some yearning of good will to mem
Some haunting sense, some happy dream
Of singing birds, of daffods,
Of olive branches, the CLEAN
Of dew-shine the Syrian hills.
