If the body of the tree is not to be
used. II is good practice TO break the
branches with the hands. When the
knack is once learned, breaking is the
quickest way to procure the "feath-
ers." The secret is to bend the branch
straight against itself. either forward
or backward, without allowing any
sidewise or twisting motion.
Gloves should be worn while doing
this, otherwise the balsam pitch will
make your hands both black and
sticky. Care should also be taken to
avoid getting pitch on the ak handles.
A sticky handle produces biisters and
prevents the loosely sficing stroke
necessary to clean-cutting axmanship
The boughs should be at least two
feet in length. Their apparent coarse

be carried more than 25 or 80 steps
they should be stacked on a hooked

Covey Blanks the Yanks.

While these games here will at
tract considerable attention, II is
doubtful If either of them will be
as artistic as that played yesterday
in Clark Griffith Stadium in Wash
ington when the Nationals shut cut
the Yankees, to 0, to take a series,
two games to one for the visitors.
The few fans who were not kept
from the park by an early afternoon
downpour were treated to the best
pitching duel of the year in Wash
ington. Stanley Coveleskie, veteran
spitballer. performed brilliantly in
holding the Yankees to four safeties
spread over as many innings, but his
efforts were not so superior to those
Of Herbert Pennock, who yielded only
Ave bingles.
But 80 Yankees faced Covey.
Seven of them got on the paths, the
spitbaIler granting two passes and
hitting a batter in addition to giving
up four swats. One Yankee got as
far as third base and two others
made second. Wanninger singled
with one out in the third inning, but
could not advance. In the fourth
with one gone, Veach was hit by
pitched ball. but died stealing before
Meusel walked. Then Gehrig was
retired by McNeely's spectacular
catch.

Attendance Mark May Go.
An outpouring Of base ball mad
Philadelphians was expected at Great
er Shibe Park this afternoon, and to-
morrow the renovated plant OF the
Athletics probably will hold the great
est crowd that ever attended a dia-
mond contest here. For the first time
in years Quaker City fans have visions
Of an American League pennant. The
dizzy pace the AS have been setting
since early in the campaign has made
enthusiasts here believe the club is un-
beatable and they will be a sorrowful
horde If their favorites are thrust from
their high home by the world cham
pions during the next five days.
The Nationals, though, in the last
few weeks have been travelling at
pace just a trifle better than that OF
the Athletics and stand an excellent
chance of getting ahead in this five
game series. 1t will be recalled that
last year the club led by Buck Harris
earned Washington its first big league
championship by beating off it's most
persistent rivals-the Yankees and
the Tigers. Perhaps this time it will
be the Athletics who feel the sting OF
the champions lash.

Around
the
Radio Dial
. BY Listener-In

Those two dance orchestras
sounded about as strange on
WCAPfs program last night as
that three-base hit by Vean Gregg
looked in the box score last week.
It has been long time since
two dance orchestras have per-
formed from the downtown station
in single night. In fact, until
this week it has been a long while
since even one dance orchestra had
been heard from that station.
OF the two last night, we pre-
ferred the Southern Railway Or
chestra, because it seemed to be
better adapted to radio. The Mac
cabee Organization was a little too
big to sound good over the micro
phone.
Graham McNamee, '.the Eastern
hope" in the Radio Digest's an
nouncer contest, increased his lead
over George Hay, of WIS, this
past week by nearly $500 votes,
giving him total lead over his
nearest, competitor OF more than
5000 votes. 1t looks like the
solemn old Judge as Hay is known
IN Chicago, will have to put on q
real sprint to overtake his rival
during the four remaining weeks Of
the contest.
WGY, the powerful broadcaster
located at Schenectady, announced
over the air last night that it will
broadcast a special test program to-
night between IL and 1 o'clock on
$500 watts, using a wave length
Of 376 meters. The Schenectady
station will use its experimental
license of 2xAG.
This much power is not excep-
tional with WGY, but it will be a
good chance for listeners to find
out just how powerful $500 meters
is. Heretofore WGY has jumped
its power at will without previous
announcement, so that it was hard
to tell just how much power the
station was using at any particular
time.

To have arbitrarily disbanded
the brotherhood and forced the
league upon the Sing Sing pris-
oners would have been fatal.
This was especially true because
the president" of the Golden
League Brotherhood, a man, who
had formerly been president of
the Carnegie Trust Company in
New York and who had played
prison politics to gain the lead
ership Of the brotherhood for
purely selfish reasons, was Sc
cretly antagonistic to the new
warden and fearful that the one
man power which he had sue
ceeded in gaining over the other
prisoners would be taken from
him.
This man had no more use for
ordinary. every day prisoners
than for so many stray dogs;
but he had succeeded in gaining
a strong following IN the prison,
nevertheless, just as politicians
do outside. To step in and
abolish the established organiza-
ton. no matter how far it de-
Waited from true course, would
have forfeited the confidence and
respect of the prisoners for the,
nAU nyiSoy, hoad
The plan, therefore, was to
lead them to demand a change
themselves.
CHAPTER XXXV
In accepting the wardenship Of
Sing Sing Osborne committed him
self to the job OF handling the
worst prison in America. barring
the slave-like prison farms and
mines Of the South.
Aside from the wretched physi-
cal defects and inadequacies OF
the cell-block and obsolete shops,
there was a constant influx Of
new prisoners. an average Of
WE'VE q udys Will q consequent
transfer of men by the hundreds
to the three <other prisons of the
State.
It was like the pouring OF
water through sieve. making
1t difficult to effect organization
and permanency of understand
Ing. In this constant transfer
to the other prisons there were
many cross currents and much
pulling of political wires.
Seventy-five per cent of the
5000 convicts in New York States
came first to Sing Sing. where
only 1900 could be ''accommo-
dated" The great majority came
from New York and its immedi-.
ate vicinity, where many of them
had close interests and family
ties. Naturally such men wished
to remain close as possible to
loved ones. To keep them all at
Sing Sing was impossible,A and
their pleas and prayers to re-
main there had to be ignored.
New "Chair" Victims
In many cases it meant the
separation of men from their fam
lilies for years, because most of
the families were poor and could
not afford to travel to Auburn
or Clinton or Great Meadow for
visits. All this made a very
trying situation. Every prisoner
