BY WERNER LAJFER

Endurance flyers stay up more than 900 hours in a plane and after bath. shaev and 36-hour snooze are their old selves again, Endur ance pitchers stay out in the box for 2o or more innings in one afternoon and it's a question whether they are sull good pitchers or ready for baseball's bone heap.
 A few weeks ago George uhle Of the Detroit Tigers pitched a 2l-in- ming game against the Chicago White SoN. It was a nice warm afternoon and as Uhle was breez- ing along with such consummato ease, Manager Harris decided 10 let the big fellow blow himself to q nice extra inning victory.
 Now the baseball public is debating whether Bucky kicked one and ruined the Lakewood Bulls arm forever or if uhle will shortly snap oft of the slump that overlook him right after the iron man exhibition,
 Trouble Finishing
 Chle. whom Detroit secured from Cleveland during the winter in a trade. has started off to be the leagues greatest pitcher. He rolled up a string of nine consecutive wins, including the long -Winded one oyer the SoX. Since then he has ha l trouble finishing a game losing five out of his next seven starts.
 The question of Uhle and his 21- inning game brings to mind the longest game in the baseball rec ords and the fate of the opposing pitchers who engaged in it. On May l, 1920. Leon Galore of the Brooklyn Robins and Joe Oeschger of the Boston Braves hooked up in 8 hurling duel that went to a 26- inning tie. The score was one and one when darkness interrupted fur ther punishment-both to fans and players.
 Oeschger Carried On
 Galore never WAS the same pitch- or after that. but OcSChger went on 10 quite d few more years of big league stardom, The slim Brooklyn moundsman left something in that game he never recovered. although he essayed many comeback.
 Oeschger, on the other hand. re- mained one of the leagues best pitchers. He was secured by the Giants shortly after and turned ir many more extra inning wins fol John McGraw before he was through.
 Back in 1906 the Philadelphia Athletics and the Boston American: staged a 24-inling endurance con. test. Jack Coombs went all tn, way for the Athletics. while Jos Harris (not the famous "Moon", Withstood the grind for Boston. liar. ris finally weakened and the Ath letics won 1 to l.
 That@game saw the last great of fort of Harris but it proved only workout for Coombs, who carried on to be the nucleus of Conni, Mack's great hurrng staff of a few years later.

them and he accused me OF wanting
another silk for myself. Now he's gone
for month-and talks of separation
after that"
"A separation, Alice! Nonsense. Things
may be bad, but they can't be SO bad
as that. Will you let me help you?"
Eyes, If YOU think" Sobs finished
the sentence.
We'll, then, you must let me take
complete charge First, I'd suggest that
you follow Fred's advice and give your
maid a vacation. Well do the work and
be all the better for it."
Alice. l see how it is" said Mary
a little later; your training as rich
mans daughter didn't fit you for the
position of poor mans wife. Fred you
say, will be home in a month. Much
may be done in that time
Mrs. Ainsley was surprised and
ashamed to see how happily the chill
dren, who had never been required so
much as to pick up a garment for
themselves. responded to Mary's sug-
gestions and did all kinds Of work.
What was more, they kept at 1t day
after day The boys removed the rickely
fence from the front and side yards.
They mended the alley fence and
planted flowers and vines where they
would do the most good. This didn't
cost much. Within the house was an
other matter. But three or four men
transformed the place in week.
At the end of two weeks all that Mary
had planned and more was accom-
plished. What had once been dreary
house became home in appearance,
lacking only Fred's presence to become
one in reality.
We're impreSsionistS-and futurists;
we've produced homelike effect. You
can do the nice little details later" said
Mary with laugh. Now for your
wardrobe
With generous enthusiasm Mary car
RED a great load of garments-the ac-
emulation of years of careless living
to the sewing room. The two friends
worked together for two weeks-Alice
learning a never-to-be forgotten lesson.
AS the work progressed Alice became
nervously anxious. She had not heard
from her husband, except to receive
his address. This she did not use, feel
ing at first that overtures, If there
were any, should come from him. Now,
as her once dreary home took on an air
of beauty and comfort, a great self
reproach sprang up within her. An

Mrs. Ainsley's Awakening.

%HE warm. Spring sunshine COM
ing into the AinsleyS' breakfast
room revealed even more thar
the usual disorder. Paper and
string Uttered the floor, dust COW
cred the furniture, and Mrs. Ainsley. her
personal appearance In complete har-
rnony with her surroundings, sat at the
iintidy table. 1t was at the end OF an
angry discussion during which the chill
dren had silently withdrawn. Their
father and mother still sat in their
places, he with roll OF bills IN MS
hands, she nervously twisting her nap
kin
Presently. as II waking from hide
o,Is dream, Mrs. Ainsley looked about
her. All was as usual-only Fred wasn't
there! A roll OF bills on the table beside
her plate! Then it wasn't a dream,
those sharp, angry words, hers no less
than his.
A little later the maid came to an
riounce a morning caller. Like an old
woman Mrs. Ainsiey arose. She STUN
bled as the toe of her slipper caught
in a rip In the rug. Somehow the
stumbling let her see herself as through
Fred's eyes. She looked down at her
soiled gown. then about the room. A
volume of Browning lay open upon the
Uttered window seat; one OF Emerson
had tumbled to the floor. Now. Mrs.
Ainsleys shibboleth was culture,
whereof. to her, books were the high
sign. Their promiscuous distribution
was an evidence of their constant use.
II ones means did not permit one to
have both servants and books, it surely
were better to forego the former for
the sake of possessing the latter, and,
having the books. how could one chain
ones spirits to the trivalities of house
work? But now as she approached the
living room the dust, the furniture out
OF place, even the scattered books
seemed to proclaim more of disorder
and discomfort than they did of the
refinements of a cultured home.
MARY Graham!" she cried as her
visitor arose.
Alice hope you'll pardon my COM
Ing a week earlier than you expected.
AS Brother Johns obliged to be away
from home I decided to come here
first"
"Oh, I'm so glad you came! Fred's
away. and I wan-I want" Her COM
posure gave way and she was c1asped
sobbing in her friends arms.
A little later the whole miserable
story came out: Fred had changed

noted with kindly eyes the disorderly
room, the soiled and torn silk OF the
mistress, and in her own mind came
to some sage conclusions.

awareness of how she had allowed her
dreams of culture and her discomfort to
make unworthy all the years of her
married life took ugly shape and stalked
beside her. She wondered whether she
had been blind-crazy. For the first
time she saw that culture did not con-
sist in the worship of books or of the
things to be found in books but, rather
in an application of those things to the
problems of ilfe With sudden insight
she understood the cause of Fred'S
discomfort She thought of him with
love and longing Night and morning
she said to herself:
IF Fred would only comet" Once she
told Mary that it seemed the month
would never end; but when Mary sug-
gested that she write and tell Fred SO,
she turned away in tears.
One day, looking up from her mail.
Mary said: Johns letters begin to
sound impatient l must 60"
But, Mary. Fred may come any day

I'd like you to see his pleasure when
he comes"
II know. But can't wait I'll come
again before I go home" So, making
light of Alice's heartfelt thanks, Mary
went.
The day after her departure Alice
preparing luncheon for the children,
heard her husbands step on the porch
Never in her girlhood days had the
sound brought prettier color to her
cheeks. She waited until the tumult
among the children had somewhat sub
sided and their fathers voice inquired
for her.
Here am, Fred" she called. and he
came into the dining room, closing the
door after him.
When the children. impatient at the
long delay. opened the door with bang
they saw sight which soon ceased to
be novel in that reunited family.
