BY ALAN GOULD

In the full spirit Of good cheer
and optimism, still feeling the glow
no doubt of their achievements in
1893, the New York Giants look
forward to the New Year with ev-
cry confidence in their ability to
stay where they are-on the major
league baseball peak.
The altitude, far from going to
the heads of Bill Terry and his
companionable young men, seems
to have imbued them with slim
ulating eagerness to be up and at
EN- again. They prefer playing
baseball to resting on their laurels.
Many of them plan to beat the
starting gun that sounds the call
to spring training. Opening day
cannot come too soon, to judge
from the winter reports received
at headquarters on Forty-second
street, Manhattan.
There is team spirit manifest
in this Giant outfit that is remark
able" comments Jim Tierney, the
club secretary and a former school
teacher whose personal enthusiasm
throughout the 1888 season was
equal to that of any youngster on
the club. They do not think there
was any fluke about what they did
and feel they will be even better
next season."

WOUNDED

An incident of the winter sea-
son, unimportont in itself perhaps,
nevertheless Illustrates the spcn-
taneous habits of Blondy Ryan, the
cheer-leading shortstop of the Gil
ants and real sparkplug of the
world champions.
1t seems there was occasion for
Tierney to send Ryan a routine
letter, addressed in the usual way
about some item of business.
A night or two later, around 2
A. M, the club secretary was awak-
ened by the telephones ring. The
operator said there was a telegram
for him, marked very important

hastily aroused himself and took

PLANT A TREEl

John w. Newbern, of Newberry, Fla.
who last year had page advertisement in
The Key West Citizen advocating state
wide Identification, has spent most of his
adult life and much of his money in per-
suading the people of Florida to plant
trees.
Since 1922 he has distributed 1,000,-
900 copies of pamphlet on tree planting
and similar number on the preservation
of game in Florida, for he is intensely in
terested also in protecting our wild life,
and though he is now unable to continue
the distribution of his pamphlets because
of his straitened financial circumstances,
he is still active in that work, which,
eventually, will mean much not only in the
Identification of Florida as result of the
planting of trees but also in the enrichment
of the state.
"Plant treel" That is the cry he is
trying to make reach every part of Florida,
and if Floridians generally respond to it
and continue to adhere to it, the next gen.
GRAFTON will see millions of beautiful ard
valuable trees that are not now in Florida.
Plant tree yourself, have your wife
plant one, your child or children plant one
or more, do that throughout the state, Mr..
Newbern points out, and the harvest" that
will sbe reaped in beauty in the years to
come will rebound to the interests of the
state
Plant tree, plant it in your yard,
plant it along the highways, plant it any
where in the state where it will be ae-
corded protection, and you may be sure
when you plant it that you will be helping
yourself in some measure and posterity i'm
great measure.
Aside from his commendable work in
preserving wild life in Florida, Mr.. New
bern has done incalculable good in pro-
noting tree-planting in the state. But he
is not satisfied over the success that he has
thus far attained. Like all other sincere
upbuilders in every walk of life in their
anxiety to succeed still more, he is solicitous
to see his tree-planting efforts result in
statewide. Identification, not fitfully here
and there, but insistently continuous every
where
To try to spur on the people of Florida
in his tree-planting campaign, he speaks of
work along that line that is done, day in
and day out, in California, and points out
that everything that is grown in that state
can be grown in this state and some things
can be grown in Florida that do not thrive
in California.
