There are so many things that a third baseman must do, and do well, that 1t seems an almost impossible job to master them. It Is an impossible job unless a player is willing to do two things: i. Practice constantly. 2. Like the position better than any other base ball position.
 Some of the things for third base man to keep in mind are; 1. Never pursue the base-runner toward home. g.. Get the underhand peg uAder skilled control. 3. Worry a base-rffnner when he Is on your base. 1. Don't let him worry you. 5. Keep full Of pep during the game. 6. Don't De afraid to take any sort of a fielding chance when -ne cessary.

HOW AMSTERDAM
IS KEPT AFLCAT
Entire City Built on Piles of
Logs.

No American tourist has ever
travelled down the Rhine without
noticing the huge rats of timber
that drift down the river. Every
writer who has described such a trip
mentions the RATS, but without eX
planning where they were going Or
what the wood was TO be used for.
The RATS were evidently bound for
Holland, but tourists have often
wondered whether the Dutch could
possibly build new houses out of all
the lumber floating daily into the
country.
A German journalist has at last
explained where the logs go. Most
of them are driven into the mud Of
Holland. Nearly all the buildings Of
Amsterdam, as we'll as of many
smaller Dutch cities, are supported
on piles. Over 1900 pine piles keep
the royal palace at Amsterdam from
disappearing into the Ooze. The old
piles are constantly rotting and have
to be replaced. The huge RATS that
float down the Rhine keep Amster-
dam from muddy grave.
