Why Do l Love
You?

Why do l love you?
| love you not only for what you are
But for what | am when | am with
you.
] love you not only for what you are
making of yourself
But what you are making of me.
| love you for ignoring the possibili-
ties of the fool in me,
And for laying firm hold of the
possibilities of the good in me-
Why do l love you?
] love you for losing your eyes to
the discord in me
And for adding to the music in me
thy worshipful listening.
love you because you are helping
me to make
OF the lumber of my life
Not a tavern; but a temple,
And of the words of my every day
not a reproach; but song.
] love you because you have done
more than any creed to make me
happy.
You have done it by just being
yourself
Perhaps, after all that is what love
means.

Out Of The
Mouths Of Babes

A little girl asked her mother,
What is God like?'
ASK your teacher the mother
said
What is God like?" she asked
her teacher.
ASK your father" the teacher
responded.
Daddy, what is God like?"
Il do not know" said the father
The father found this bit of poe
try:
I asked my Mother what God was
like
She did not know
l asked my Teacher what God was
like
She did not know.
Then l asked my father, who knows
More than anyone
Else in the whole world, what God
was like
He did not know.
l think if l had lived as long as
My Mother, or my Father
WOULD KNOW SOMETHING
ABOUT GOD.

Story
Let Me Tote You Over
The Bridge

They were a couple of negro boys,
crossing a trestle over swollen
stream. One was a wen-grown boy
of about fifteen years, the other,
half his age.
The younger boy was frightened
as he gazed down into the angry
waters, with their load of debris.
He clung to his big brothers hand,
and shrank as he stepped timorous-
ly from one Railroad Tie to an
other.
The big boy was fearless. know
ing there was no danger. He spoke
reassuringly to the scared young
ster, but uprooted trees dashed
against the trestle and his eyes
walled about in terror, as he clutch
ed desperately to his brothers hand.
At last the big boy bent low:
Put yo' arms roun' nah neck, Ru-
fie. I'll tote yuh ovah de bridge" "
Seeing the JOY in the little pick
a-ninny's face, | wished that some
big brother would TOTE ME OVER
MY BRIDGES.-Sh Shasta Lee.

90-day suspension handed Dixie

Shirley Fry of Akron, Ohio, 6-l,

BOSTON, July THE hot
breaths of the Red Sox again are
wrinkiing the necks of the 'front.'
running Yankees. But today they
were coming over the shoulders
of the still surprising White Sox.
Being crowded by the Red Sox
at this middle stage of the Amer
ican League campaign now is rou-
tine for the Yanks' astute Casey
Stengel. And, naturally, he has
given that personally unpleasant
matter considerable thought.
Ever since 1916 we've been
around the American
League that the Red Sox crawl
away from the barrier on their
hands and knees, wake up at ALL
Star game time and then raise
HI the rest of the season."
Stengel explained.
Red Sox Set Steady Pace.
We've been mistaken" he con-
tinued. We've overlooked the
fact that the Red Sox are the solid
club. They generally maintain
the same pace from start to fin
ish. In the spring they look bad
because some of the weaker teams
are playing over their heads. But
when July comes around, the Red
Sox are up there and they've
stayed up to the last day"
Casey. perhaps. has been inf1u-
enced by the fact that his Yanks
have lost six straight games in
Fenway Park this season and, that,
without thorough check, he can
not recall his last starting pitcher
to go the full nine innings here.
AS far as the Red Sox are con-
cerned, they are sitting prettier at
this stage than at any time since
1916, when they won the Ameri-
can League pennant from the
Tigers by IL games.
Game Back of Yanks.
Today they are third, a game
back of the YankS with more
cracks at them today and tomor-
row. On last July 7. they we're
seven games out. 10 back in 1949.
six behind in 1948 and eight
in arrears in 1947.
But nowadays, the Red Sox
have much more to worry about.
After last nights 6-2 win over
the Yanks. Steve O'Neill and his
performers did ap-
Ipear confident they were due for
a three-game sweep.
They realize they will be forced
to fight tooth-and- to do so
and then, if successful, prove
themselves again against the
White Sox in Chicago Immediate
ily after next weeks All-Star
game respite.
Almost everybody will be
watching us as we go against the
Yanks and the White Sox," Red
Sox spokesman pointed out. But
we're keeping one eye on those
Cleveland Indians. They're hus-
ting along, too"

.MeIe's Batting Average Low,
But He Delivers in the Clutch
By Burton Hawkins

This is the year when the Mats
Sam Mele may learn whether a
respectable batting average is
more desirable than a flock Of
runs batted in. His verage is a
lowly .255, but he's running Irv
Noren deed heat in an effort
to be the first Washington player
to bat across 100 runs since 1941.
Mele and Noren are locked at
48 RIBS apiece, although Irv is
outhitting Sam by nearly so
points. With the Mats having
played less than half their sched-
ule, both are threats to reach
the 100 mark. The last Washing
ton player to accomplish that
was Cecil Travis, who batted in
101 runs in 194l while amassing
a 1859 average.
Sam has reached that level
although he has tapered off badly
in recent week.. He has batted
only .160 in his last seven games
and in 18 games has whacked
across only five runs, but last
night ne may have snapped his
slump with a single which gave
him two runs batted in and the
Mats considerable JOY.
Mele's Single Ties Game.
Mele smashed a bases-loaded
single with two out in the eighth
inning, got the Mats a 3-3 tie, and
Sam Dente and Gene Verble fol-
lowed with blows which presented
Washington with a 6-3 win over
the Athletics before 5,140 fans.
The Mats bosses may be con-
fronted with the unusual situa-
tion Of deciding whether an aver
age or runs batted in determine a
hitter's value. for Sam could wind
up with a feeble average and a
commendable crop of RIBS.
