A Jarenlle Story
By Rer. Krnest H. Shanks
Tony iliyed .-in . the ; crowded dls
!tricttof th great city. His borne
was in Vffreat' building that sefr
ed aa the honte of a large number
of families. Tony did not "know
how many there were. Theyj were
crowded . togetner, and .the, rooms
were amall, not well lighted or
ventilated. Tony's family occupied
but three rooms. That was all his
father could pay for out of his
meager wages.
Tony's father and mother had
come from the V,'ld. -country."
Tony was born in America and he
was proud of that.fact.' He had
several brothers -and "sisters, all
older than He,' and they rre. borni
across the waters. ;:: He was- the
only real American in the family.
The only playpound'tb&t Tony
knew was the p'avem'erit In front of
the tenement house, or the 'little
narow court in the rear- -But that
was always so crowded ;wjthf rub
bish and broken bksof furniture
that there was little room to play.
The pavement was also, narrow,
and the "street not -Very" clean.
Sometimes on a h6t day he .would
play on the fire-escape . that ran
along the back of. his. home, past
the window of the 'room that did"
double duty of kitchen . and bed
room for the boys-nJfc the. tamily.
Tony's world waa' rather email,
that is he did not ' know muih
beyond a few "short" blocks.! " Vp
to the time he was old enough to
go to school he had not been more
than a half dozen blocks from his
home. Whichever way he looked
there were tall wooden buildings
fronting on narrow streets, all
rery much alike and filled with
wxlarge families In smalL rdoms.

Tony's' father had gayed.up a little
money , and he k bought A' temail
place on the nil-side away off from
the .big city. It was a'; beautiful
spot, but- not considered, worth
much for farming purposes. j So it
was purchased at a rery Veason

- The real reason far the extraor
dinary growth and. ever increas
ing popnlarity-of squash tennis in
the larger cities,1 says John R. Tu
ns! in the February issue of "The
Sportsman,' is that' It fits inl so
perfectly with the tempo ot Ufa in
1927. VS' , '. t r: V.j ?
y Mr, Tunis holds that "this sub
tle game with its mobile variety,
its dazzlngly" quick changes-and
exchanges dovetails perfectly with
the external life in the great cities
in the United States.
"Its cheapness, its variety and
speed, its accessibility, its compe
titions, its opportunity for exer
cise and concentrated exercise
these are fust a lew of the'"quali-;
ties that endear squash tennis to
the business man.
; "With the development of the
round-the-court game, that it, let
ting the 'ball carom from' five
walls before hitting it, which has
been the means of expression tt
all the great players, "there ' has
been evolved a variety "Of shots
which can perhaps be equaled
only in such games as billiards.
"Sheer speed has never won at
squash . tennis. Position ; play, -a
knowledge of court angles, -foot
work, and the ability "to mote
quickly, and anticipate shots are
of far more value than speed,, as
the final results have shownon
more than one occasion.
:4 You "have shots that are impos
sible in any. other . game. It is
three 'strokes which -make the
niceties . of position play of such
vast importance in squash tennis,
and It is "this wide' scope of shots
from all sorts of angles and . all
sorts of positions Upon the court
which makes it such a delightful
mental as. well as 'physical strug
gle. This explains why -so many
men,who during summer play
nothing but a little golf, pursue
squash , tennis with such 'keenness
and devotion" during the winter."
According to Mr. I Tunis ' the
ganve originated - late In the last
century when two Bostonians,

Man Treasures Apology
From Abraham Lincoln
OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) Sev
enty years ago Abraham Lincoln
accused a 9 year old boy of steal
ing eggs, or a week the false
charges rankled in the heart of
Jonathan Goodwin Crouch. Then
he was called to the office of the
struggling lawyer who was later
toTeNSmeIft"3reat' Emancipator
to receive an apology.
Now Crouch, who lives here and
at 84 is hale and hearty, cherishes
the incident in his heart. He con
siders he. Is the only person living
to "whom "Honest Abe" made a
personal "apology.
'It" happened in 1S52. Crouch
had- gone with his father to
Springfield, 111., to sell farm prod
ucts." He strayed from his fath
er's 'wagon to explore a barn. As
he emerged,' Lincoln drove up in
a light buggy! "called the boy to
him and quickly searched his
clothing, explaining somedhe had
been taking his eggs.
A week later word came to the
Crouch farm Lincoln wanted to
see Johnny at his office. Johnny
went andtthe lawyer, offering him
his hand said, I Jim sorry l ac
cused you of stealing eggs. I
want you to forgive me."

known physician of Salem; and

association, is a distant relative
of Morse the inventor of the tele
graph. Ed.)
, Just eighty-nine years ago Mon
day, January 24, Prof. Samuel F.
B. Morse, an impecunious portrait
painter and' lecturer at New York
university, gave the first- public
exhibition of the Morse magnetic
telegraph which was to revolu
tionize, communication throughout
the world and contribute as much
to the social, political and eco
nomic advancement of the United
States as any other single factor.
The exhibition was before an
assemblage of specially invited
guests fn the geological cabinet of
New York university, Washington
square, New York City! It had
been; arranged that the gentlemen
present should prepare dispatches
for transmission which should 'be
translated -by some one having no
previous knowledge of their con
tents'. " "'
The experiment was a complete
success. The messages were trans
mitted over the somewhat crude
apparatus made by Prof. Morse
with the cooperation of Mr. Alfred
Vail and his - father, vJudge Ste
phen Vail. . To the admiration and
wonderment of " the ' assembled
company, the messages were re
corded ."without difficulty and
translated from the Morse code
with the utmost facility. One
message, addressed to the nniverse
and directing it to "wheel round
by kingdoms," caused much
laughter and astonishment. " '
"Professor Morse" took part in
this public demonstration of his
telegraph with the fullest confi
dence, despite, the' .feci' that nearly
six eventful" 1 and discouraging
years liad elapsed since he first
conceived the idea of.thf TnagnettC-lbad
-telegraph while dn bdard HCpack
sfeipSully enroute' from Havre to
New York. Notwithstanding1' the
variety of experiments' Morse" had
conducted; the principles 'of the
telegraph as embodied in the in
struments used in the Washington
square demonstration, were'Tpre
cisely the same as those originally
conceived by him, and even" the in
struments -were' essentially' the
sdmes as" those sketched hy? the In
ventor in his notebook during the
ocean voyage. "
Still more interesting is the fact
that from 'the nucleus of ! this ap
paratus, demonstrated ' publicly
for the first time exactly 8ft years
ago, has grown the gigantic electro-magnetic
' telegraph system of
today, embracing 6,549,556 miles
of wire throughout the world, and
