When paddles, instead of a yoke,
are to be used for carrying the canoe,
some trouble may be experienced in
binding them securely to the smoothly
polished thwarts. This can be avoid
ed by using as ties rubber thongs
about half an inch wide and perhaps
a foot and a half long. These may be
cut from an old inner tube and will be
found very useful in camp as we'll as
on the portage. A few stout bands
should be cut from the same tube and
used for swapping around packages
and to keep the lids on food-containers
and pals when moving camp.
Never throw cans, bottles or garbage
into the water. Before you leave a
portage see to it that you are doing
your share toward keeping the forests
and streams clean and beautiful. Bury

in that pie, had l not thought that
he would stick to the bench and try
to make champions out of the team.
figure that Uncle Robby is worth so
per cent more to Brooklyn as man
ager than he is as president. He has
become a fixture on the Brooklyn
bench, he is popular with the Brook
lyn fans and he has managed TO get
a lot out of players not always easy
for other managers to handle.
II don't believe many of the Brook
lyn fans are interested at all in Robby
as president of the club. The deeds
of club president don't engage the
attention or interest OF the fans. Who,
for instance, knows that Connie Mack
is an official of the Athletics? And
who does not know that he is man
ager of the club?"
There is no question that the
Brooklyns have slumped since Uncle
Robby began vacillating between the
bench and the grandstand. The
Brooklyn players are the same old
crowd, doing about as they please,
and, like MicaWber, always waiting for
something to turn up. If Uncle
Robby doesn't get back TO the bench
soon the National League folks fear
the Brooklyn team will relapse to that
comatose condition in which they ex-
listed before Uncle Robby arrived on
the scene and, with the late Charles
H Ebbetts to help him, succeeded in
getting Brooklyn out of the slough
and back to life.

ribs, loading the sacks. Rice drew a
pass forcing Peck across the plate.

Boss Bucky counted while Rice stop

Rice and Goslin promptly negotiated a
dual theft, the former crossing with
the fourth marker of the frame.

Sam Rice and Goose Goslin had an

Joe Judge, after a weeks absence,
returned to his job at first base yes

well socked a couple of hits. But he
had to give way to Joe Harris after

asked her husband what time it was.

telling him she believed he had look
ed wrong the first time. lie reached
for his watch and it was gone.
A moments serious thought, then
Earl quietly reached into the pocket
in the car door and, pulling out his
Esix-gun, stuck it against the side of
| his passenger and demanded:
~ Give me that Wateh!"
The man handed the watch over to
him at once, at the same time crying:

Earl took the watch snd stopped the
car "Get out!" he said.
! The man jumped out and ran.
A few moments later Mr.. and Mrs.
Lewis reached Azu a. The question
of time again came UP. Earl looked
at his watch. It wasn't his watch at
all. The man had given him his own.
Just as that fact psrcolated through
Earl's mind he glanced down and
there was his own watch on the seat
where he had dropped it instead Of
putting it in his pocket.
He would like to meet his erstwhilc
passenger, ana get in his explanation
