Johnson is no driver. His nat

Whether "OId Barney" would
have become a more hardened in

in natural riches and had had to
battle harder for his pre=emi-

just as lovable, human, and I'M

He told me he could only stay a few

was late in arriving. Ruth, Gehrig,
Vance, Speaker, Altrock and others
had come and talked. Presently the
big shouldered blonde bulked across
the rostum, a shy, little smile light
ing up his pale face. There followed
a shout and tumult such as only the
