Mr.. Queen made a telephone call
from the Hollis Hotel, then had Ed
drive him up the Hill. II was late
afternoon and the birds were chirp-
ing at great rate around the old
Wright house. He paid Ed off,
watched the cab chug down the Hill,
and then stroiled up the walk.
The little house next door-the
house of Nora and Jim-was shut
tered up; it looked opaque and ugly
in its blindness. Mr.. Queen felt a
tremor. That Wds house to avoid.
He hesitated at the front steps of
the big house, and listened. There
were voices from the rear gardens.
So he went around, walking on the
grass. He paused in the shadow of
the oleander bush, where he could
see them without being seen.
The sun was bright on Hermy,
jogging a brand-new baby carriage
in an extremely critical way. John
F. was grinning, and Lola and Pat
were making serious remarks about
professional grandmothers, and
how about giving a couple of aunts
a chance to practise, for goodness
sake? The baby would be home
from the hospital in just a couple
of weeks!
Mr.. Queen watched, unobserved,
for long time. His face was grave.
Once he half turned away, as if he
meant to flee once and for all. But
then he saw Patricia Wright's face
again, and how it had grown older
and thinner since last he had seen
it. After five minutes of delicate
reconnaissance he managed to catch
Pats eye while the others were oc-
cupied-caught her eye and put his
finger to his lips, shaking his head
in warning.
Pat said something casual to her.
family and strolled towards him.
He backed off, and then she came
around the corner of the house and
flew into his arms.
"Ellery! Darlingl Oh, I'm so
glad to see you! When did you
come? What's the mystery for?
Oh, am glad" She kissed him and
held him close, and for a moment
her face was the gay young face he
had remembered.
Then he took her by the hand
and drew her towards the front of
the house. That's your convertible
at the curb, isn't it? Let's go for a
ride"
But Ellery, Pop and Muth and
Lola-they'll be heart-broken if you
don't"
81 don't want 10 disturb them
now, Patty. They look really happy,
getting ready for the baby. How is
she, by the way?" Ellery drove
Pats car down the Hill.
"Oh, wonderful. Such a clever
little thing! And do you know?
She looks just like" Pat stopped.
Then she said quietly: Just like
Nora"
"Then she must be a beautiful
young lady indeed"
ooh, she is! And I'll swear she
knows Muth! Really, / mean it.
We can't iOait for her to come home
from the hospital. OF course, she's
out of the incubator and she
gurgles at me and hangs on to my
hand for dear life and squeezes.
She's so fat, Ellery, you'd taught"
Ellerv did laugh, "You're talking
like the old Patty l knew"
"You think so?" asked Pat in =
queer voice.
"But you don't look"
"No," said Pat. mo, I don -
But-where are we going?"
Nowhere in particular" replied
Ellery, turning the car south to-
wards Wrightsville Junction.

trip to plate. Three for three is
really hitting in any mans league
and when 1t happens In a world
series contest, then It becomes the
topic OF the day. Well, anyway,
with this show Of power, Ruth and
company won the game 10 10 5
and the series now is all even at
two and two.
Trying desperately TO check the
bombardment, the Cardinals called
upon five pitchers, but to no avail.
Ruth had his sights in perfect
order, and all pitchers looked alike.
Ruth's record-breaking series of
long-distance blows brought un-
stinted applause from the greatest
crowd ever assembled in a st.
Louis baseball park-the paid at
tendance being 38,825. Many of
those assembled came TO scott and
Jeer, but remained to applaud and
cheer.
The player with basebalPs great
est punch was formally initiated
into the order of the "Razzberry"
before the game during the entire
batting practice period. These were
mingled with a few O-o.o-o's when
our hero parked a couple in the
stands while taking lusty swings
at the offerings of Ernie Shore,
batting practice pitcher.
After Ruth had hit his third con-
secutive homer, the crowd paid
tribute TO his greatness when he
clearly showed them how far the
science of home-run. making can be
developed. This same crowd jee:ed

Intentionally passing Ruth In the
eighth, since they one and all
wanted TO see il he could get four
for four. The average fan felt the
Cardinals were already beaten and
one more home run couldn't do any
further damage.
After Ruth walked on four
straight balls the iee-s lasted until
the end OF the game, and Ruth had
caused the home towners to desert
completely the Cardinals and cheer
at every move of the Yankees. ST.
Louis fans wanted Ruth to set
mark that would stand for all time.
They let their wishes be known
until the last man was retired by
setting up continual din and
jeering every pitch and every move
OF Hallahan. and Keen, the last of
the Cardinal hu:lers.
The box score Of the game shows
that the Yankees and Cardinals
each secured fourteen hits during
the game. The Yankees used nine
players while sixteen hired hands
sow service for the Cardinals. Here
are some of the statistics from the
game:
Two base hits-Lazzeri, Dugan,
Thevenow, Douthit, Koenig,
Gehrig and Combs. Home Runs

The Outstanding Game
Of Bube RUfh's Career

Winding up this series of the

George Herman Ruin, known far
and wide as the Sultan of Swat,
and Bambino, the writer feels that
It is the appropriate time to settle
once and for all, the question OF
"What was the outstanding game
of Ruth's career?" For the answer
TO this question, we have TO go
back to the Worlds Series of 1920.
It is fitting and proper that Babe
Ruth should select world series
contest in which to convince the
public and sports fandom in gen.
e:al that anything can happen in
baseball. In the game we refer TO
just about everything did happen.
Although the game was played in
st. Louis. with the Cardinals as
the opposition, the rabid rooters
turned against the home team, in
the last innings of the game, be-
cause the Cardinal pitcher pur-

Ny Word for 1t
BY FRANK COLBY.
How Did 1t Start?

@. I think all your readers would
be interested in the origin of the
term HOBBY, an absorbing pas
time.
A. The original Middle English
word was hoby, IAN ambling horse. i"
Later the term hobbyhorse came to
designate any toy like horse, such
as the horses of a merry-go-round,
the dummy horses used by circus
clowns and especially the riding
stick with a horses head, beloved
of ali small boys of pre-automobile
days.
From the childish zeal for the
sport of riding hobbyhorses, the
word hobbyhorse took on the ex-
tended meaning of ANY absorbing
pastime or interest In time the
term was shortened to hobby

PerSia's name has been changed to
Iran, and that name is Official" at
the present time. Yet history books
tell of the Persians, and it is best
to speak of the people as Persians
when we go back into olden times.
In preSent-day Persia, or Iran,
you may see the remains of a city
which was famous $500 years ago.
People called it the glory of the
East" but it is known in history as
"Persepolis." This name came from
the Greek language, and means
Persian city,
II you wanted to see those ruins,
you might make sea voyage into
the Persian Gulf. Getting off your
boat at the port of Bushire. you
could go $50 miles inland, and you
would be there"
At first you very likely would
feel disappointed. What you would
see would hardly look like a great
city. From a distance you could
observe pillars rising from the
ground, along with parts of walls
and other stoneWork All that can
be seen now gives but a small idea
of the ancient glory of the East.
1t is only by close study of the
remains that We have been able to
learn important facts about the
main buildings in PersepoliS. The
city went to ruin the time of Alex
ander the Great. We are told that
Alexander destroyed large part of
it. 1t has amounted to little since
it was captured and plundered by
the soldiers of that conqueror.
Yet the pillars and the rest OF the
stonework tell us great deal about
the chief buildings of Persepolis.
These buildings were palaces of
kings, and they rank among the
greatest palaces of all time.
The first palace at Persepolis was
built by king named Darius. Note
The IS" at the end of his name. 1t
was the custom in Persia for men to
have names ending in IS" Among
the other Persian kings were Xerxes,
ArtaXerxes and Cyrus. When you
study Persian history, see whether
you can find single Persian man
of ancient times whose name did not
end with an IS"
Going closer to the walls and pill
lars, We find that some of them
have figures of animals and men on
them. Some of these figures repre-
sent bulls, and others show kings
and soldiers
