sad but loving rememhEs4Se
LETT, who departed this life. one wear ago
today, December 20, 1925.
What would / give to hold -FOUR hand
Your dear face Just TO seesI
Your loving smile. your welcome voice,
Which meant so much to Imet
How sad is this day to me,
The day on which you died:
Till l rest by your side.
It is lonely here without you.
IN the midst of friends I'm blue.
For beneath the smile there's an aching
THAT is always longing for you.
How I miss the welcome footstep
OF the one I loved so dear:
Feeling sure that he is near.
Il did not stand beside his bed.
Nor did I see his life depart:
But when heard that he was dead
1t nearly broke my heart.
Gould you ask me il l miss you?
Yes. it fills my heart with pain:
But your spirit sweetly whispers.
Courage. vile. we shall meet again.
You left q memory fair and sweet,
Its fragrance shall never die:
Your life was short. pure and sweet
When God called you on high.
By his owing wife.

N|EHAUS Turns
OUT FAILURE

A year ago Al Niehaus, q sturdy
Southern Association clubber, was
depended upon to play first base
for the Pirates, picked by many per
sons last spring to win the National
League pennant. Pittsburgh had
procured Niehaus from the Cubs
along with Grantham and Aldrich
in the famous deal for Maranville,
Grimm and Cooper.
''Niehaus will be my regular first
baseman,' Bill McKechnie said
shortly before he left for his 1925
California training trip.
Niehaus was sold the other day
by ST. Paul to Atlanta, so Al goes
back to the Southern Association.
McKechnie soon was convinced
that Niehaus. the highly touted
rookie wouldn't do, and In May
traded him to the Reds for big
Tom" Sheehan, the pitcher. For a
time Niehaus was a big success In
Rhineland. as the team started on an
eleven straight winning streak as
soon as Niehaus Joined the club.
But he was not the cause and was
merely carried along by a winning
team. Hendricks. too. was con-
WINGED that he wasn't a topnotcher.
He sent him to st. Paul, and now
Niehaus again goes back to Dixie.
