See Miss Janice CoOner

In the Sears drug store window
is a picture which is attracting
much attention. 1t is Janice, the
little 15 months old daughter of
Mr.. (Lefty) and Mrs. A. w. Cooper.
With the remarkable record of
Cooper as the leading pitcher not
only of the Pittsburgh nationals,
but of the entire baseball world, he
! is just about the most talked of
man in the country. What is still
better, this is his home. Who knows
but that perhaps Miss Janice is the
source of the inspiration that has
made for her father such a big
place this year as a baseball star?
He has won % games this season.
| The picture was given TO Mr.. and
Mrs. G. E. Fisher when they re-
Gently visited Mr.. Cooper in Pitts
burgh.

on evidence presented, railroad execu-

will ind that no general downward re-

the plan which they have under con-

credence is that calling for a splitup of

she is known as "The Little Mother"

Because of Mrs. Lockwood's ad

close to her have not assumed an
optimistic attitude for her recovery
saying that she may be taken away at
any moment or may perhaps live
year. She is surrounded by friends at
the hospital and nothing has been
overlooked for her comfort.

July for her summer home in Ply

several years ago, with Miss Grace

death affected Mrs. Lockwood con-,

forced to enter the Plymouth hos
