In this much disturbed, tempest
tossed Old world, Mrs. Daniel c. Roper.

David r. Croker. the eldest daughter,
when favorite piece Of furniture was
offered her as gift. "Id rather come
home and find 1t here"
That explains something Of the feel
ing that the Roper sons and daugh-
ters have for their home.
It's a feeling crowded with happy
memories-of picnics and games and
tasks well done, but most of all with
the years when once every week their
father read aloud to the whole clan.

nursery tales and came right on down
through Swiss Family Robinson and
Dickens. That IS why Dickens lives

plains.
1t isn't surprising that the Roper
home still seems a good place to come
back to, because it is a big roomy
square house of light brick which
stands on pleasant hillside of wind

Of Washington, and 1t is pleasantly
filled with books. pictures, flowers and
beautiful furniture, the whole suffused
with the warmth and kindness Of

Cronin Takes a Chance

The next thing that hap
pened to Chapman was a single
and a walk and a triple and
it seemed then that everybody
in the park but Cronin knew
it was time to pull the pitcher.
And, without rubbing it in,
or as we say, squaWking, ulti-
mately Chapman was pulled,
but the four runs which accu-
mulated in the interim. was
exactly the margin by which
Washington lost.
Cronin gambled, when prob
ably not another soul in Wash
ington would have done the
same thing.
Yet, Joe Cronin's gambling in
the last four months out on
that ball field would make Can
field himself turn over in his
shroud-and much of it has
won.
Here's a toast, therefore, to
Joe Cronin, the Pittsburgh Phil
at modern baseball.
MAY he never die brOke!"
