The American league head sent a
bulletin 20 his umplres that more
care must be used in the throwing Of
balls out OF play. II resulted in the
judges OF play using Just about half
as many balls ns formerly.
This naturally made for more old
and discolored balls In play. Not
only was the BAH expense greatly re-
duced but the effectiveness Of the
pitchers accordingly increased.
During the last two months Of the
American league race the pitching
improved at least 30 per cent.
The National league followed suit
and got similar results.

Scout Leadership.

The Boy Scouts of America viii
celebrate their fourteenth anniver.
sary February 8 to IA.
To many that means nothing
10 Others it means much, because
those who have seen the influence
OF Scouting upon boys realize the
uplifting effect that it has.
Scouting inculcates patriotism,
courage, self-reliance and kindred
virtue. What higher ideals could
we ask for those who will be in
charge of affairs in America in a
brief span Of years3
The Boy Scouts organization has
had an uphill fight against over
whelming odds. 1t was first held
up to ridicule, but surviving that
stage of its career, it has come to
be regarded as one organization
for boys that is above reproach.
To perpetuate it and place it
within the grasp Of some eight
million boys of Scout age i'll the
United States, self sacrifice is needed
on the part of men who are willing
devote some time to building for the
citizenship of the future.
Something over $4,000 men
now give their time voluntarily,
without any compensation, or the
present organization would not be
possible. But there are only half
million Scouts in America. The
other seven and a half million are
waiting for leadership.
The Scouts need intelligent and
enthusiastic cooperation. Lack
ing the time or ability to act as a
leader, you can boost for them and
be the means of carrying the
message to some boy that will make
him a better citizen when he grows
into manhood.

The Problems of Living.

A college professor on the
Pacific coast told an audience Oh
school teachers that the greatest
human problem in the world today
is the problem of living together
But is it such a problem after
all, Is it not simple unless we
make it complex?
The science of living together ls'
after all, not science at all.
1t is friendliness. Nothins
more.
People who dwell in peace ana
happiness are friendly peop'.'
They make friends by being irienas
to others.
There is no deep secret about H.
Reduced to its simplest terms
living together in peace and har'
mony is practicing friendliness &c
everyone, never harboring hatfeo
and never questioning the mo''Ve'
of others. ,,o,
Now and then. perhaps yo'
NAV find some perverse sous WIZ

and too often resignedly.
Perhaps they are indolent and
do not want to take the
trouble with their children
'hat their own parents took
with them; perhaps they are
timid and do not know how
10 oppose the prevailing
fashion among their acquiant-
ance; perhaps they are bitten
with modern socialistic idea
that persons who are paid by
the state are necessarily the
only persons competent to
tram or to educate a child.
Whatever the causes are,
the home seems to us to take
a smaller and smaller share in
the bringing up Of each sue
ceeding generation. Parents
are SO much occupied in
developing their own indiv-
duality" or seeking their
own entertainment or culture
that they neglect the most
serious and God given of
their responsibilities. By
loading those responsibilities
on every other agency they
can find they little by little
lose the respect and affection
of their own children; and
they weigh down the school
system with duties that it can
not properly perform, and
that interfere with the work
it can and should do.
Look we'll to the hearth
stone:therein all hope for
America lies. The YOUTH s
