More or Less True

Women can slip off their tight pumps in the movies to rest their fleet, but what some of them want now is a complexion they can slip off so they can enjoy a cry.
 A cynic is a grouch who thinks all modern girls go to cooking school for is to learn how to open cans so they can teach their hus- bands after they are married.
 A pretty girl may not have any more brains than an elephant has feathers, but the only man who won't fall for her is blind in both eyes.
 A woman thinks she has to shop all over town to get hat that suits her, but she seems so afraid he'll be the only chance she'll ever get she'll grab the first thing that offers itself as a husband. The only thing more astonish- ing than what silly things women will wear is what silly things men will brag about.
 A lot of fat sisters would be buy ing clothes three sizes smaller if it were only as easy to lose the appe- tite as it is their patience while dieting.

GREAT STATESMAN DIES.

One of Canada's greatest statesmen of the last generation passed away when the Right Honorable William S. Fielding lost his long battle against death
 MT Feldng's name is indeliby connected with that of the great Laurier He had been Premier of Nova Scotia for twelve years when Sir Wfrid call ed him to the Dominion Government as Minister of Finance Until the end of the Laurer regime fifteen years later Fielding was at the head of Canada's financial department. So long and so harmoniousy did Laurer and Fielding work to- gether that the latter regarded generally as the logical successor of the former However when Lauriers end his party leaders thought that a younger man should lead, and they chose William Lyon Mackenzie King, Premier since 1922 When MT. King elected over the veteran Nova Scotian, he returned the latter to his old place at the head of the Treasury
 Mir. Fielding regarded the reciprocity treaty nego- tiated with the United States in 1911 his great est achievement as a statesmen though it re- jected and resulted in the defeat of the Liberal Party in a contest in which he lost his seat in Parliament All his life he battled for close business relations with the United States. It was in the interest of that cause that he opposed the formation of the Federal Dominion. Later he pre- dcted that time would come when the commercial Maritime Provinces and the Prairie Provinces would unite that issue and control the Dominion. That

1t is difficult to get worked up
over the present unsettled condition
of the pennant scramble in the
Roberts circuit after looking back
and seeing what it would have been
if they hadn't split it 10 days ago.
Water and baseball clubs gener-
ally can be counted upon to seek
their level sooner or later, and it is
altogether possible that the second
half will develop into the same sort
of h~air-raiser that was in progress
when that famous meeting took place
July 2, but there still are a lot Of
mourners.
Just supposing they hadn't split,
which is as good warm weather
pastime as any, the Sports and
Spudders would be d~eadlocked today
for the lead, with the Dallas Steers
a game behind and Fort Worth
five and a half games out. That,
however. is just SO much pea soup as
far as the second heat IS concerned.
Waco now is in the throeS OF an
other of those ambitious spells that
made the Cubs so generally respect

Harris, the McLennan county nine
displaced the Bisons as runners-up
to the Spudders. who ran afoul Of

decisions in two days and walloped

ana opener. Charlie Barnabe the

Of the fiXe exhibitions reeled off,
Fort Worth's victory yer the Spud-
ders possibly was the most porten-
tious. The Snyderized Kittens are
getting pitching since Big Pancho

promise to become dangerous as the
standing becomes oriented. The
Spuds raped McCabe 10 times. but
after the first inning he had them

NEW YORK, July 1872
William Watson Clark, young
southpaw of the Brooklyn Rob-

in the closing innings of a game,
especially during hot weather.
Clark pitched the Dodgers to a
8 to 6 victory over the st. Louis
Cardinals the other day but was
lucky to last out the game. He
explained it this way:
Before the game I got on the
scales and weighed 167 pounds.
After the game I weighed 1856
pounds, a loss of eleven pounds"
Clark however, draws some sat-
isfaction out Of the fact that a
big dinner, plenty of water, a
good nights sleep and a heavy
breakfast brought him back to
his original weight the following
day.
