to town house with two-by-twice

This is no argument against buying

Hesse Expounds Principles.

It is not often that a precocious
urchin upsets the apple cart, but it
does happen.
Recently Anton Hesse, gray-haired
from waging innumerable conflicts
both in the everyday world Of living
and the ephemeral sphere Of chess,
stepped into the pulpit and laid down
some valuable precepts in pawn
play" that merited the quiet and at
tentive respect of every listener.
According to the recognized rules
Of courtesy and fair play, = lecturer

terrupted during the logical develop

A man may read a thousand books
and quote from memory every word
therein and have absolutely no un-
derstanding of even a single word.
A player may read and study chess
tones until he feels he has saturated
himself withs the great themes that
sprang from the arduous mental toll
Of those who attained universal ac-
claim as grand masters-and withal

Clark Griffith left the fate Of the
Nationals in New York In Bucky
Harris hands yesterday and with
about. 1000 other baseball fans went
to the East Ellipse diamond to help

there got under way the race which
Will end in September with the local
sandlot champions going to Pitts
burgh to play in the tournament de-
Gliding the national crown bearer.
The see-saw game, finally won by
F. B. l., 1919, was marked by half
dozen errors on each side. Naval
Air Station drew first blood in the
second inning, scoring two runs on
combination Of errors, walks and
hit. The Sleuths came back in
their half, however, and put four
markers across.
See-Saw Contest.
The Airmen took the lead again IN
the fifth, scoring four times, and
tailed again in the seventh and twics
in the ninth. The last scores cams
from home run with one on. F.
