Two days later the Cardinals were
ahead.
Simpson gave his first horseshoe
to the base ball world in 1919. when
he favored the Chicago White Sox
with the gift, and luck favored them
with the American League pennant.
In 1923 he sent an iron charm
to the Kansas City Blues, and they
became the champions in the Ameri-
can Association.
Four years ago the Washington
Senators rode to victory In the world
series after Simpson had shod them.
The Pittsburgh Pirates nailed his
horseshoe to their mast In 1925 and
soon afterward they loaded the rich
est treasure of base balloon aboard
the Buccaneer boat
Last year Simpson bestowed his
favor on the Chicago Cubs. Much
10 his chagrin, they finished In
fourth place. Milt consulted the
almanac and discovered he had
made the horseshoe in the dark OF
the moon
So he was careful about the lunar
influence when he stirred the Goals

r OLA, Kans.. August 30.-n the
st. Louis Cardinals fail to win
the National League pennant, it
won't be Milt Simpsons fault.
For Miit, the lola blacksmith
who played first base for Springfield,
Mo-. in the old Southwestern League
40 years ago, has done his duty by
supplying Branch Hickey with a
nice new shiny horseshoe.
Milt had sent the Cardinals one
of these tokens of good luck in 1926,
just to help EN- along In the scrap
for the flag, and they won the world
series to boot.
Hickey was grateful, sending the
benevolent blacksmith a ticket to
the series. Simpson was too busy
repairing automobile axles, tuning UP
farm tractors and shedding the oc-
casional horse to see the 1926
classic, but the charm stayed with
the horseshoe despite his absence.
This year, when the New York
Giants got on top of the Cardinals,
the owner of the st. Louis club
looked to lola for change OF luck.
why In thunder don't you send
us another horseshoe?" said a tele-
gram from Branch Hickey to Milt
Simpson.
Milt waited until the moon was
right and then hammered out a
