Iead-off man who was needed for his
team this year, but there seemed to
be none other who would fit so well
if he could train Tavener to it. So
he told Tavener to school himself to
be the first batter and started at San
Antonio to accustom the shortstop to
the place.

when New York won the champion
ehip there were games in which the
players did not do well in the first
four innings, but before the contest
was over one of them would get
on first, then the next batter would
hit safely, the third would do some
thing to advance the runners. the
fourth would hit over an outfielders
head, and the riot, once started, would
give the Yanks d block of runs that
would either win or tie the game.

opposing players TO a score of not
more than three runs and Detroit
will be able to pound out four or five

More games are likely to be won by
Detroit this year in the manner that
New York won them last year than

n TEW YORK, April 22.-Whilt
the New York Yankees al
NJ ready have proven that the
A. power of ''murderers row,
as their batting order has been
called, is as highly charged as it was
last season, there is a new row ot
murderers developing in Detroit
which, is a fearful one to look upon
by any pitcher Of timorous dlspo-
sition.
The Detroit batting order starts
with Tavener and continues with Nc
Manus, Manush, Fothergill, Heilmann
and Blue. The next batter, Warner,
is not quite as dangerous as MS fei'
low players, but Bassler, when eaten"
ing, is something Of a murderer hlfl-
self
Heilmann today is tied with Pat
Collins. catcher of the Yankees, as the
leading batsman Of the American
League at this early date. Each has
an average of 800.
Vets Have Not Slowed.
If Tayener gets on first base any
pitcher who can set the succeeding
hatters down without a. score be-
ing made by Detroit is going TO ac-
comphsh a big task. MCManus is
batting better than he did when he
was with the St. Louis Browns, and
there has been nothing to indicate
that Manush, Fothergil and Heilmann
have slowed up a bit since they lifted
themselves far to the top OF the pat
ters last season.
There are good battefs in success
sion on the Washington and Phila-
delphia teams, but Detroit has more
power and more certainty Of dong
something than any other comblna-
ton that the Yanks viii have TO hght
against in the American League.
The Detroit team has been able
to play only four games 10 date. while
some of it's rivals have played nine,
because OF the period Of inc!ement
weather that retarded the opening
of the American League in the West.
But the team has not played a game,
whether won or lost. in which it has
not shown tremendous force with the

THE INDIVIDUAL

w YHEN a government is removed too far
M from the people, the people are prone to
w feel that it all-powerful Their imag-
ination plays upon it and invests it with poten-
cy it does not have. They shoulder upon it all
sorts of duties in the belief that it has magical
powers of performance. They assume that any
evil can be cured by passing law or issuing a
proclamation. A people that puts too much con-
fidence in legislation leans upon a slender and
fragile reed.
Government cannot take the place of the
individual; it cannot supply the lack of personal
responsibility. Vigilance is the price not only
of liberty, but of efficiency. People who put too
much trust in government too often relax their
own initiative They let George do it, and
George falls down on the job. If you want a
thing well done, do it yourself. If you can't do
it yourself, hire some one who is close enough
to you so you can watch him. The way of pro-
gress and security in government, of freedom
and democratic accomplishment lies in strong
government backed up and operated by alert,
vigilant citizens.
$50 let us write in our hearts and minds as
the ideal to be sought the words of Abraham
Lincoln in his first message to Congress: To
maintain inviolate the rights of the states in
der and control under the Constitution their own
affairs by their own judgment exclusively is es-
sential for the preservation of the balance of

"a county fair is county fair and
as it grows, it becomes a more potent
agency for advertising the county and
stimulating farm production excellence.
We would like to see the spirit prevail
where if farmer or other citizen has
some outstanding farm product, he
would hasten to show it at the county
fair and do it as a matter of course.
1t is surprising the number of people
from a distance who visit the county
fair to get line on what the county
opinions of our farm resources are bas-
ed on fair exhibits. In many years the
fair does not adequately show what the
county is doing because the exhibits are
lacking. In such cases, the county as q
whole suffers. Bring in your good hay,
grass, corn and potato samples, particu-
larry your clover and alfalfa samples.
There is big demand for livestock, par
ticularly breeding dairy stock. The rep

In dairy stock. 1t is not an easy matter
to make livestock exhibits as there is
much work in connection with bringing
in the stock, but in the long run it pays
and pays well. Anyway, let US get the
idea that the county fair is county fair,
having for its purpose the advertise
ment of our county and incidentally the
entertainment of our people. The fair
ought to be the great annual county holi-
day and it will become so if the people
come to have the right idea about the
fair and its purpose. The ability of the
fair to be good fair grows rapidly as
it is supported. The more gate receipts,
the bigger the fair-the bigger the fair,
the more gate receipts. And so on and
so on, each year the fair getting bigger
and better able to provide the means of
county advertisement and county en-

more ways than one to support the fair
