Citizenship PRINCIPLES
EXPLOITED IN ADDRESS
BEFORE THE CHAUTAUQuA

A lucid Interpretation Of the prfn-
ciples on which American citizenship
IS founded was given in a lecture by
Mrs. d. Prize Beyea in the tent Mt
Eighth and Center streets under the
auspices of the Ellison White chau-
tnqua yesterday afternoon. These
principles called Tho Four Corner

to the lecturer. liberty. law and order.
religion and life.
Mrs. Beyea is a woman of varied
and cosmopolitan experience and
knows Americas institutions better
perhaps than most persons who have
wed in this country during the n
tire period Of their existence 1t Is
sfor-t reason that she understands
DIE value Of American liberty, and
OF law and order.
The speaker also STRESSED the value
OF human life over animal life and la
mented the system of American legis-
lation that often provides %nppropria-
tion toward the Improvement of hogs
and cattle when babies are forgotten
That religion IS indispensable TO any
democracy and TO the people who com
pose TINT democracy was the conten-
lion of the speaker who illustrated
her ak by many vivid p~ortrayais OF
death bed scenes In which men had
found It impossible to de without re.
ligion. Mrs. Be:'ea asked. IF men
cannot die without religion. how can
they expect TO live without it7"

hope he plays through this series
as he played in the American
League. but If he does not, the
Yank machinery will move along
just the same.
We are going to get good pitch
ing, think. and we viii hit wei.
AT least we have hit pretty well
all year, and i fail to see why we
should suddenly fall down In this
series.
The sporting writer's voted Ruth
the most valuable player in the
American League, and they made no
mistake. As q matter Of fact, they
seldom make mistakes OF this nature.
There are many reasons why Ruth
was chosen. In the first place he
played sterling baseball all the year
and again leads his league in home
runs.
Another fact was the surprise
caused BY his work. There were
some who figured the Babe as
Through" after the series last
year, but he surprised them COM
pletely and Is . better ball player
today than ever.
~ IT
Ruth was a greater asset to my
ball club this season than he was in
1921, despite the fact that in 1921
he clouted fifty-nine home runs. He
in easier to handle in every way, and
a better team ball player. ] should
say he was more valuable to me this
season than ever. This was his best
year.
The Giants are credited with
having q signal code. Signals are
all right some times, but signals
alone win not win pennants, games
or World Series. It takes something
more than all that. You tell man
to do certain things, but that won't
make him do it. The human ele-
ment lis stronger by far than the
most elaborate signal system in the
world. and we deal in human quail
ties in q baseball series.

Because OF these facts meption
ahe oft-repeated statement that Ruth
has no weakness at bat. He win be

heart OF the plate once, but he will

luck win determine the distance.
Regardless Of this. expect that
