Home Worth Some Sacrifice.

Things worth while are not to be-
possessed without effort and sacrifice.
Nothing Is more worth while than

the building loans committee Of the

LAYING OUT THE NEW TOWN
Highly important Points That VIII
Count In the Future Develop
ment of the Place.

To build a new town successfully
and quickly there are many mighty
important factors involved, says B. Il.
Taylor, prominent Detroit real estate
dealer. The site should be selected
with care. Provisions should be made
in laying out the new town, that sites
be provided for schools, churches, play
grounds, recreation fields, town hail..
fire department and the like
Finances. transportation, churches.
schools. water. efficient construction
department and selling force are abso-
lutte necessities.
To speed growth of the new town
proceed TO build 1000 or 1000 houses
at once. This viii encourage others to
build and give activity at once to all
phases OF life Ia the new community.
To see new houses going up by the
thousands is much more reassuring TO
your prospective new resident than a
mere prediction they will be built.
There Is Il distinct advantage for a
man In selecting suburban home to
purchase his new home in a new town
provided the originator Of the new
town gives the impetus TO the new
community by building a couple Of
thousand new homes at once Then
improvements schools, churches. trans
portation. community social life fol-
low almost Immediately.

SLICING BIG FAULT
MANY FAIL TO MEND
Trouble Arises From Several Diff,
ferent Causes.

Sliclng Is the bane Of golfng ex-
istenee for thousands upon thousands
Of golfers.
1t is really surprising how large
percentage never overcome the fault
The harder they try. the worse many
Of them get.
The fault arises from several diff
ferent causes Probably in the ma
iority of instances it is derived from
the habit Of pulling in the arms just
as the ball is struck. That. in turn.
IS due to the fact that SO many golf
ers are leaning backward as they com
plete their stroke
Nine times out Of 10 the reason is
that they are not well balanced at any
stage Of the stroke The chances are
that they are standing with legs too
stiff at the start of the backswing,
so that when they try to pivot they
merely stralghten cut the left leg and
almost pull 1t or the ground In their
endeavor to get the body around
This, in itself is enough to almost
throw them completely of balance, the
body can't get much of a turn. and
practically all the weight remains on
the right leg from start TO finish of
the stroke.
Then as rule the right arm goes
out from the body and they bring 1t
In as 1t comes down on the ball. This
means coming across the ball from
right 70 left and lmpartiug a spin
which sends the bali to the right.
That left leg must not be stiff aud
| straight on the backswing.

Connie Mack knows ball player
when he sees one.
In his day-and It's been a long
one-Mack, as manager Of the Ath-
letlcs, has had 400 baseball players
come and 90. Three years ago it was
the joke Of the major leagues. He
would have his scouts go around and
sign up young college players hardly
more than halfway through their
teens.
Mack worked on the theory Of catch
ing them young, treating them right
and telling them everything.
His perseverance has beer rewarded,
and he now has ball club wlrich VIII

And he grew It himself He didn't

Triples More Difficult
Than Home Run Smashes

It's more difficult 10 get three-base
hits than Il is home runs in boTn the
National and American leagues. In
fact. there are practically two home
runs TO one triple In many parks the
triple IS indeed the big swat, for the
triple IS always inside the grounds and

Working Hard to Win

Gen. Henry T. Allen, former
commander Of the American
Army of Occupation, says that
all countries of Europe are
making great preparations to
beat the athletes of the United
States at the Olympic games in
Paris, France, next year
France has already raised
more than S1,000.000 to turn out
a winning Olympic team. Eng
land has subscribed more than
100000. These countries are
determined that the United
States shall not emerge supreme
in the eighth Olympic"
According to the general, the
300 athletes Of this country will
have to work harder to win next
year than the United States
representatives at past Olympics
had to work TO gain first place.
