Every man feels at one time or another
that he could run a newspaper to much
better effect and purpose than those who
make it a life work, and the pity is that
some arrangement cannot be made to give
those who feel this way an opportunity
to find their error. They would not be
withheld from their customary Gccupa-
for more than a day or two.

One of our recruit pitchers was a
giant mountaineer, that some of
Mack's scouts had picked up in the
wilds. Hayseed stuck out OF his ears,
and his high water pants tapped
around his poles like sails. His feet
were so large that he had to fold
them over at night to crawl into
his berth.
We had hooked on this masterdon
at some general store and railroad
station in the tar country. / guess
it was the first time ne had ever rid :

the post-hole circuit, they used to

He happened to pick up one of the

Rookie looked uspiciously at the

cracked a grin. Then he got up and
started toward the door. A couple of
the boys followed cautiously. The big
fellow carrying his paper meal check
in his hand walked straight out
through the baggage car. Before the
bagga gemaster knew what was up
the lanky six footcr was crawling

Then the engineer looked back.
