IN CAME OF LIFE.
The Winner Is He Who Concern
trates on His Aim.
Success Means That One Mus. Make
All Sacrifices, Keeping tn Mind
the Great Object.

Ii you desire to be an expert In the
game Of life, you must concentrate on
your aim as an expert chess or base
bali player concentrates on his play
and game. Babe Ruth's skill lies
in the fact that he has studied batting
and great batters. Napoleon's tre-
mendous power lay in his ability to
sacrifice everything which confiicted
with the one unwavering aim. Nothing
could stand in his way--society,
friends, wife and amusements-every-
thing must give way to his mighty am
bition. To succeed, We must pay the
price and sacrifice sacrifice great
many things we are fond of for the
great aim and ambition In life.
Life is usually what we make 1t, and
we get out of life just what we put
In it. Many great men in life have
made good and were handicapped from
the start. yoltaire, with his many
fits in childhood, Ill all his life; Pope
sewed up In a canvas jacket each
morning, that he might sit up for his
work; Caesar with fits; Napoleon
with fits and the itch; Keats, sickly,
a c0nsunlptive; Poe with nerves that
tormented him, yet with all these
things against them, they had the grit
to persevere until they made good.
Gypsy Smith, coming from gypsy
tent, with the use of Bible and die
tionary, has made good as a great
evangelist.
A man must play to win and over
come everything that would deter his
progress.
Sacrifice makes great men. John
Forsythe, who was the owner of a
large leather company, was hurt with
a number of his men. When the am
bulance came, that would only carry
three, Forsythe said: "These men must
go first" although he was more Sc
verely injured Sir Robert Sidney on
the battlefield, pushed away the cup
of water making a wounded private
drink his share. He knew he must
die, but he died knowing that even the
love Of life had not conquered in his
soul. He realized that the rule OF
life. others must come first.
Really great men have self-confi-
dence. 1t is true, great men fail to
accomplish what they set out to do;
but, in the main, they succeeded. The
tlmorous man only wags his empty
head, and says 1t can't be done. Bill
McAully is type of man that can can
the can't. A few years ago there was
riot in little Texas town. The
sheriff sent an o S call to the gov
ernor to send a troop OF Texas
Rangers. The governor wired back
Rangers en- route" The sheriff anx-
iously met the train. One lonely
ranger (Biu McAully) got off. The
sheriff threw up his hands in despair.
"Oh, Lord, where is the rest of your
outfit?'' he cried. REST, I'LL" re-
piled Bill, as he carelessly took a big
chew of tobacco. You amt got but
one riot here, have you?" This is the
kind of timber and confidence that it
takes to reach the top and win the
game of life.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

ELECTRICITY NOW; PIN BOYS
SOON TO BE THING OF PAST

an intricate mechanical problem.
Strangely enough, the difficult part
of the process is not in lifting the
pins, sweeping them into the pit, or
in returning the ball, but in a revolv-
Ing magazine which takes the pins
off an elevator and throws them into
position for resetting,
In picking up and replacing the
pins the machine replaces them, not
on the painted spots, but exactly
where they stood. This Is something
no pin boy could do A pin will often
be knocked two or three inches out
OF position and still remain standing.
In this case the machine replaces
the pin in it's former position. thus
making its operations absolutely ac-
Curate in every respect.
Some Advantages Of the Device.
Among the benefits claimed by the
inventors of this machine are the fol-
lowing:
The ball ia returned In Is seconds
as against approximately 20 to IS
seconds where pin boys are used,
The machine permits 10 games per
hour as against an average of seven
games using pin boys. One kilo-
watt OF current is sufficient for 10
games, which costs about one-third
of a cent per kilowat. Pin boys are
usually paid cents a game for their
work in Chicago alleys
Another item, of more interest 10
bowling alley owners than to bowlere
Is the saving of wear and tear on
pins. The average life of a set OF
pins Is said to be about 1900 games
After that much usage the pins be-
come worn like rundown heel on
your shoe and the bottoms OF the pins
have 10 be machined off TO make
them stand firmly. The inventors
OF this machine guarantees that a SET
Of pins will last i 900 games in the
new machine. due to the fact that Il
sets them up evenly and lightly each
time they are set up.
Can BE Operated with Meter
The Brunswick Bake CollendeI
company will probably place the
| Brunswick automatic pin setter IN
/ bowling alleys on a rental basis al
| though whether this rental will be
so much per game, per month OF
/ per year, has not been fully decided
upon. The inventors state that .
meter can be attached TO The machine
so as 10 register the number o.
games played, the number OF pine
played or the amount OF electric cur.
rent used.
Perhaps a "gammeter" will be the
seXt thing. The device could easily
| be made a quarter-in-th -the-slot ma.

BARNEY DREYFUS
is ENCYCLOPEDIA
OF DIAMOND GAME
Pirates Owner Has Mar
velous Memory; He
Knows EN- All
BY DAVIS J. WALSH
l. NJ =. Sports Editor.

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.--As unique
a character as the administrative
sido OF major league baseball has
known Is Barney. the plausible
Dreyfus, owner Of the Pittsburgh
ball club. other magnates may keep
in reasonably close touch with the
game and its developments; Barney
grabs II in both of his self-starting
hands and carries It with him al
ways. To some baseball may be a
hobby or a business. TO Barney It
Il both and more---it is his life.
Mention a class d ball player Of
the most obscure type-Barney will
know him intimately from batting
weakness to his choice I'm neCkties.
II he doesn't he will go to an index
system he keeps in his office, select
a card, glance at the hieroglyphics
known only TO himself and tell you
everything pronto.
Barney Has the Dope.
Lets see" he will say. "Oh,
yes Gocfus-first name Joe. He
was born In Medicine Hat, runs a
taxlcab in the winter, bats and
throws LEFT handed and prefers
blondes. That, boy will be a ball
player some day If ne can overcome
a tendency to 20 after a high fast
ball on the inside. Yes, yes, ! know
him. His father runs a cloak and
suit business i'm Fort Wayne. Ind,
and once ran for mayor on the nom
partisan ticket his opponent having
a plurality Of 10000. The boy him
self has freckles all over his nose"
The card index system is only the
halter or check-rein upon a marvel
Gus memory, however. Most of the
time Barney's performance IS strict
ly impromptu.
At the recent baseball meeting at
Louisville Barney was approached
by one Bill Jackson. a Three-I league
manager, who wished 70 introduce
himself. II wasn't necessary
You Have TO Respect Him.
81 know YOU" .quoth Mr.. Dreyfus
you played scmipro baseball
around Pittsburgh for some time,
and then you knocked around the
a Job in the Federal league. You
were a left-hand pitcher, but when
you were with the Feds you played
part of the time at first base"
According TO Jackson, this data
was accurate from first to last. The
really remarkable feature, however,
was that Jackson played semipro
baseball around Pittsburgh a mere
matter of 20 years ago. Yet Drey-
fus remembered Just "a you would
remember the breakfast order you
gave this morning.
Barney does not crave popularity
which is Just as well. He doesn't
get it. But he does command and
receive respect. and regardless of
whether he may spoil bail clubs by
too much management of managers,
he knows more baseball In a minute
than some nagnates will know in a
life time.
