uniting it to memory is another.
There is no life so full that it ma,
be spared, and none so poor but that

Poetry and the Child.
The child who loves poetry finds
his way to the bookshelves indirect
ed: he is deep in the delight of il
when his host comes over TO him, he
looks UP from the book dreamily.
a. remember my mother reading me
this :"
"Do you like pcetry?" asks the host
wondering why this particular freckled
shabby little scout should.
"Oh, yes, Doesn't everybody"
"Nell-not necessarily Do you
know Bret Hate?'
"Oh, yes. Look here, when you'll
hear the next fool askin' for Flynn,

been 'yere"" says the little boy in
nOcently.
Well, perhaps his host leaves him
a million dollars few months later.
and perhaps he doesn't, but that isn't
the point, after all. The point is
that that precious, priceless, irresist-
ible thing we call personality has
been launched and the man 9TH q
little ache of envy, knows it, if the
child does not.
Three Gems.
Here are three, out of q hundred
modern poems, that seem to me to be
as good as they can be. 1 pass them
out as does the elderly lady in the
baking powder booth her biscuits
when the demonstration is over.
The first is dedication by Kipling ::
Small mirth was in the making, Now
/ lift the cloth that cloaks the clay.
And wearied at your feet / lay
My wares. ere l go out to sell.
The great bazaar will praise. But
thou,
Heart of my heart, have 1 done
well?"
The second is by our American poet.
Louise Imogine Quincy:
Take temperance to thy breast.
While yet is. the hour of choosing.
Arbitress exquisite
Of all that shall thee betide.
For better than fortunes best
Is mastery, in the using.
And sweeter than anything sweet
Is the power to put it aside"
The third, on second thought, 1
won't quote. it really has to be read
in its entirety. and it is long. People
tell me that it isn't very good poetry.
and certainly its sentiment is old
fashioned.
But 1 never can read Vachel Lind

great sonnets of Shakespeare, with

minds

Which alters when it alteration
finds. :"
and Keats "Last Sonnet" with thC
matchless lines:
g.. the moving waters, at theil
priest-like task
Of cold .ablution round earths human
shores"
and Wordsworth's exquisite fourteen
lines beginning:
"Or, friend, l. know not which way
/ may look for comic t. 80"
And then, for moods Of lesser exSl-
tation, all sorts of simpler and more
singing measures like "Out of the
dark that covers me-" and "Comrade
goodbye and goodbye and goodbye
to you!" and Emily Dickenson's lit
tie canoes, and Alrich's sturdy Amer
icana, and of course, Christina Ro-
setti's "a Birthday" and the old ia,
vorites sometimes, too-"Maude' and
"Lalla Rookh" and Swinburne.
There is many poem automatically
included in all self-respecting anthol-
ogies that is less delightful than our
own Lucy Larcom's weeds" begin
ming:
81 love these things that you call
weeds,
Sedge, MULLEN. bareback, yarrow,
That knit their roots and SOW their
seeds

To country byways narrow
And then there is Lang's--is it!-
"Who wins his love shall lose her,
and somebody's lovely poem contain
ing the lines:
For though the sad waves, slowly
breaking,
Seem here no painful inch TO gain,
Far off, through creeks and inlands

To know dozens, scores OF these, Is
to gain just so much increased power
of vision, and if the modern theorists
are right, and we are really no more
and no less than we think we are, II
thought is the one reality, then how
obvious is it that this sort of select

KATHLEEN NORRIS SAYS

Poetry is one of those
treasures for whose defense
we may find no logic-like
everything else in life that
is valuable, there is no ex-
cuse for it.
The child who grows up
ignorant of poetry and not
loving it is a defrauded
child, and, like love itself,
one may only inherit
poetry from those to whom
it is dear.
For older people poetry
is mysteriously consoling

BASEBALL

The local baseball squad crushed the
Bayport athletics under an avalanche of
hits Saturday afternoon and romped off
with 10 to victory.
The game was a nine reel affair, the
first one of the season. It took only one
hour and forty-fve minutes to run it off
and during that time the local fandom
was treated to some very brilliant play
ing. c. Beberg, Bayport's guard in the
left garden was given plenty of work to
do and in every instance he proved to be
master Of the situation. He could cover
more ground and grab them out of the
air, better than any fielder we have seen
for a long, long time. The cement side
walks were no barriers to him when an
sOut was at stake On fly ball going to
his territory. Bona led him close second
in the number of outs made However,
Bona's chances were of different nature,
only one being difficult Eos, too, came
in for beautiful shoe string catch when
he was compelled to come across the
cement walk in the right field to catch
short fly that was just out of reach for
either the first baseman or second base
man.
Ny and H'dy furnished the battery
work for the locals. 1t was H'dy's first
try in working on the receiving end for
the "Speed King" and he did remarkably
well. Ny was going good most all the
way. During the first five frames of the
game, only one Bayport man reached third
base. 1t was in the sixth round when
Bayport got into the game in the scoring
column. A couple of singles and triple
netted them two counters. Two more
were made in the seventh on couple of
singles and as many errors. In the ninth,
two more runs came across that devel-
oped from couple of singles, stolen
base and two wild pitches in succession
that scored both runners. Ny allowed
nine safe hits, seven of them coming in
the last four frames He struckout six
batters and passed three on balls.
Christian started the mound work for
Bayport and worked the first six innings.
The mirror., 1923-08-23

The locals made all their scores off his
deliveries, scattering them along in every
frame but one. A single, sacrifice,
stolen base and an infeld error accounted
for one marker in the initial frame. A
brace of doubles, passed ball and sac
rifce, recorded two markers in the second
round. A couple of singles, a stolen base
and LETTERS poor peg to first, allowed one
run in the third. A triple, double and
a single, recorded two more in the fourth,
Two free tickets, as many singles and one
two bagger, pushed four counters over the
pan in the sixth round, which ended the
locals scoring and was quite sufficient to
win the game. In the six frames Chris
tian worked he allowed eleven hits, five
of them for extra bases. Struckout four
men, passed two on balls and hit one
batsman. H. Beberg finished the game as
pitcher and during the two frames he
worked he got away very nicely. He
held the locals scoreless, allowing a couple
of singles and striking out one man.
