used to ride Marty because he threw
away an important game against
Waterbury when he was with Hart
ford, last season. Marty, who is one
of the most valuable, players in the
Eastern league, is enjoying a fine
season with Bridgeport and his all
around play is an important factor
| in keeping the Bears on top of tho
heap.

In the Hartford Waterbury game
at Clarkin field yesterday, Tommy
Comiskey, Hartford third-sacker,
knocked Alex Schauffel, Waterbury
catcher, to the ground while scor-
ing on a close play. THAT was a
dirty, rotten trick, Comiskey," a
spectator called, but the majority of
the crowd shouted to the third
sacker that they held him blameless,
and. in our opinion, they were right,
because Comiskey was coming in at
full speed and Schauffel was direct
ly in his way,

Jones, Hartford's new center

better in every game. Sheridan's

greatly in the past few weeks. He

HIS GREATEST COMPLIMENT
BY DR.. Roy L. Smith

The omen season for weddings is at hand
The scent of orange blossoms is in the air
Solemn vows are being spoken an. great
adventures are being laurched. human
ity is in the midst of romance.
How many of those nervous young men
who stand before the affairs Of the church
realize the wonderful compi ment that is
being paid them today?
A man, married several years ago, COM
planned to his friend yesterday that h.s
wife did not appreciate him-that she new.
er complimented him, that she did not
seem to understand him"
He had forgotten that only few years
ago she paid him the highest compliment
that any human being can pay another.
When she stood before the wedding altar
beside him she announced to the world that
she would trust all her hopes Of future hap
piness in his hands. If she was to live
in comfort she would expect him to provide
it. She would trust him to TO so. If any
smiles were to play about Ter face she
would trust him to put them there
Her wedding vow was an announcement
to the world that she considered this man
the most wonderful man in the world, tna
most lovely and loveable. She had chosen
him out of all the men she !.new. She be-
lieved more sincerely in his integrity, she
had more confidence in his loyalty, she saw
more possibility in his love then that Of any
other man on earth.
In giving into his hands the keeping of
her life she welcomed the opportunity O.
being the father of his children, the COM
panion of his joys, the helper of his SUI.
cess.
For his sake she forsook all others.
Because she believed in him she promis-
ed that she would cling to him, for better
or for worse, until death pa1ted them.
Nothing that any woman could promise
was withheld. She paid him the greatest
compliment of which she, or any other
woman, was capable. She married him.

"MY TOWN CAN'T BE TOO GOOD FOR ME"
By "Wib" Chaffee ~.
My Town can't be too good for me,
Nor too big or good for it;
Though small in size My Town may be,
I'd have it big in "Push" and "Grit"
NV Town must meet emergencies
With dauntless courage vim and "Pep;"
Though progress is not bought with ease,
My Town must not get "out of STEP"
My Town must tackle every task
Go forward always-ne'er back down.
Meath foreign suns though I may bask,
I'd think with pride of this My Town.
My Town, of course, is good enough,
No matter how my fortunes swell,
Nor yet how fortune may rebuff.
NV Towns defamers l would quell.
And yet, down deep within my heart
1 know My Town improved could be;
To help improve I'll do my part
My Town can't be too good for me!

NOISE-THE HATEFUL
IT HE other evening, just as the sun was
slipping down the west, we stopped in a
4 sleepy and very beautiful little town in
Northern Minnesota. Standing at a garage
door, waiting to have "1at replacing by the
"spare," we looked out across the sandy street
and the little group of houses into the bit of a
sapphire lake with it's background of shadowy
pines. With the quiet-that blessed quiet which
spells the surest peace-sinking deep into our
SOUL we were almost irritated to have voice
disturb u.s. But it did; young alghting
from little with the of popular tire
emblazoned on it's door, was standing near, see
ing the same beauty and feeling the same peace
we were. Quite without self-consciousness, and
with apparent consciousness Of the fact the.

er Of the opposite sex he said: did you ever see
anything lovelier think I've never been in so
beautiful and restful a place before Can't you
just feel the quiet take right hold of you? And
will you look at those pines-each of them
as much an individual as you and I are. I'd
love to stay here month and get to know them
and to soak up lot of this quiet" We shall
probably never the tire salesman again, but
at least in that brief moment together outside
that dingy garage door, we sensed kinshp and
comradeship in our appreciation of the soul
resting qualities of quiet which is merely free
dom from noise. This is what Grove Patterson
says about this hatefui-and often unnecessary
element of human life:
Noise is one of the curses of civil
ization Noise is the unhappiest thing
about city life. Much noise is needless.
- It comes from nervousness. 1t comes
from lack of self-control. Watch the
next automobile lineup and listen to the
hair-trigger humans sounding their
horns. Noise adds to the misery of life,
and half of it might be eliminated.
To have stood, as we stood, listening to vast
quiet is to know the truth of at least the las
statement.

The worlds population is increasing at the
rate of about twenty million year. We'd haV"
little to worry about if we could only be assured
that the quality is increasing as rapidly as the
quantity.
Interest and high rates of interest. are no
modern invention. Long ago Saint Gregory OF
Nyssa wrote thus:
"He who would give the name of rob-
berry or parricide to the Ubiquitous in
vention of interest would not be very far
from the truth. What indeed, does it
signify if you have made yourself mas
ter of the wealth of another by scaling
walls or killing passers-by, or if you have
acquired what belongs to you by the
merciless method of the loan?"
