HIS HEART REALLY IN GAME
No Question That Veteran Ball Player
Enjoyed Pastime Which Afforded
Him His Living.

The successful professional baseball
player is almost always high-strung,
eager, with nerves on edge; and,
though it Is necessary that he should
be punished for losing mis- temper In
public, it should be remembered that
he would not lose his temper at all If
he were not so keen to win. He should
therefore be fined and forgiven. The
objectionable sin is not to care; to
look upon playing as most failures re-
gard their daily work; namely, as a
disagreeable job that must be endured
for the money and the leisure hours 1t
brings, both of which can be spent In
pleasure This is the highway to fall
ure in all undertakings to believe that
there is no pleasure In the work itself,
but only in the time spent away from 1t.
l remember years ago, writes VIII
liam Lyon Phelps in the Yorths Com
panion, that a reporter interviewed q
number Of professional ball players.
f, and asked them all this question: Do
you enjoy playing? One after another
answered in the negative. "How do
you expect a man is going to enjoy
himself sweating under broiling

we get from spectators when we make

GOT THE MESSAGE TWISTED
Carelessness Of Telegraph Operator
Made MIxup Of Somewhat
Amusing Character.

An Inspector of railway property
whose duties had taken him to Bridge
port, Conn, discovered that the foun-
dalton under the local freighthouse
needed repairs. Without delay he filed
this dispatch to the New York office:
Foundation under freighthouse at
Bridgeport unsafe-rush men at once
In sending the message the operator
on the New York wire apparently did
not space the letters properly In the
word foundation" and also pressed
too long to form the letter az; for
this was the message received In New
York:
Found lion under freighthouse at
Bridgeport unsafe-rush men at once"
The inspector was astonished a few
hours later to see a special work train
come into the yard with a fat car
containing large animal cage and
also ten men expecting to have an
exciting time catching lion that they
supposed had escaped from some pass

Mission House Made Memorial.

The mission house at Kettering,
NorthamptonshIre, England, where
William Carey on October 2, 1892,
founded the first missionary society
which is recognized as the basis OF
the modern missionary enterprise, was
put up for sale, the owner having died
and the estate thus having become
purchasable for the first time since
that memorable occasion. The pur-
chase was made on behalf of the Bap-
list Laymen's Missionary Movement of
England. The property will not only
be retained for the denomination as a
historic memorial, but will probably be
used as hostel for returned mission
aries.

GAS FOR SQUIRRELS.

A new method OF killing
ground squirrels is being demon
strated in Pend Oreille county,
according to the Newport Miner.
Calcium cyanide is put into the
squirrel burrows and the hole
sealed. The moisture from the
earth and air generates hydro
cyanide acid gas, a very deadly
poison. One good breath of
this poisonous gas will almost
instantly kill any squirrel. The
gas spreads to all parts of the
burrow so that none escape. The
gas is generate and remains in
the hole for about 20 hours.

NEW TRAINING
SCHOOL GYM
PROGRESSING
Boys at Training School Will
Do Most of Work on Huge
Structure

Three fourths Of the labor on 1.
new gymnasium and auditorium
building for the State Training
School at Mandan, which will be one
Of the largest buildings of its kind
Of any state institution, is being
done by boys in the school, accord
ing to W. +. McClelland, superirten-
dent.
The training school boys are doing
the construction work, except that
for which experienced bricklayers
and carpenters are needed
The gym building will be 1913 by
SO, the front part two stories. With
two weeks more mild weather all of
the concrete in the walls will be
poured and the building can be fin
ished so that basketball can be play
ed in it February /, Mr.. McClelland
said. The front of the building will
contain on the second floor lockers
and shower baths. The gymnasium
proper will have ceiling 1913 feet
high, a suspended running track and
a basketball floor ~ by 1913 feet.
Construction is of reinforced con-
crete and hollow tile. All the tile
was laid by the training school boys.
Other improvements being made at
the school included replastering and
rewriting the main building, and plas-
tering and rewriting the girls build
ing.
Good crops were raised at the
training school this year, Mr.. Nc
Clelland said. Corn went better than
so bushes to the acre, $50 tons of
ensilage was obtained, 16 bushels of
alfalfa seed obtained, 5000 bushels
of oats and $500 bushels of pota-
toes raised, with other grain and
vegetables. Lack Of adequate stor-
age facilities forces the institution
to sell some of these products, parti,
cularly vegetables, and buy later on,
he said.

that these school children are diff

were visited by hundreds of visitors

"This widespread interest" the
superintendent continued, "shows a
general awakening to the evils of
class lock-step and to the need for
individual instruction. For four
years we have been working out the
technique of individual instruction
in the public schools of Winnetka.
While our work is still crude in many

THREE CHANGES
I'm HAIL LAW
MAY. BE URGED
Zonitg of State Among Sug.
gestions Arising for
Changes in the Law

While no action has vet been TAX
en- 1t is expected that Commissioner
OF Insurance S. A. Olsncss and Off
Gals OF the state hail department
Will, IN the near future, begin pre-
paration ola program of legislation
to be submitted to the voters
through initiative petitions at the
next March election making changes
IN the state hail insurance law.
The suggestion of Governor Nestos
that, if desired, the March election
be used to change the law to permit
surplus funds to be used in paying
losses in full for this year finds ac-
cord in the state hail insurance de-
partment Hail warrants will be
paid at so percent of their face value
befause before January l., and should
the law be changed next March an
additional 20 percent payment would
be made.
1t is possible that if program of
legislation is presented twill in
clude a change in the law to zone the
state. Districts of the state would
be classified as to the degree of risk
of insuring crops in those sections,
as revealed by the loss experience of
the department since 1919. Rates
would vary in accordance with the
risk entailed in the insurance. Zon-
ing has been suggested before by
the state department but not de-
manded as change in the law.
Commissioner of Insurance OILS
ness has also expressed opposition
to the provision in the state hail in
su,ance law making SO eents an acre
the maximum indemnity }tax on $500
an acre insurance, and an amend
ment along this line is expected if
che initiative is used.
The state hail department, accord
ing to Manager Martin Hagen, has
the losses in several counties this
year ready for certification to the
state auditor for payment. A large
force is engaged in making tax del
auctions before the amount of loss
of each individual is certified. Loss
es in several counties will be paid
Immediately after December 1, he
said, and all warrants probably will
be out by December Is. Payments
will begin with Adams county this
year, and be made alphabetically, &C
cording to counties. Warrants will
be paid in cash.

Theatre of the showing here of ''The
Merry-G Co. Round, the widely her
aided Universal Super-Jewel produc-
ton which took New<York by storm
when it was shown at the Rivoli
Theatre, one Of the moving picture

the contracts as bidding for the pic
ture was spirited and it was only af-
ter days of telephoning and tele-
graphing that the deal was closed.
"Merry-Go Round" was nine
months in the making and more than
1000 actors and actresses took part.
The cost of building the elaborate
set to duplicate the Pratcr, which is
the Coney Island of Vienna, the en-
peror's castle and other historic
spots was enormous, but this expen-
diture was more than justified by
the final excellence. Travellers who
have visited Vienna admit that Uni
versal has achieved something very
much worth while in duplicating the
locales so faithfully
Tho cast is noteworthy, being head
ed by Mary Philbin and Norman
Kerry with an imposing list of fea-
tured artists in the chief supports.
These included George Hackathorne,
Dale Fuller, Cesare Gravina, Maude
