Of course he wears whiskers, and they are probably red and cut Van Dyke. He parts his hair in the middle if he has any hair—and wears big, round glasses. He was the pet of the family and spent his early youth in some nice, refined Boston nursery and never, never played “old-old-caf in RH kinds of F«’«sh Vegetables in Season, the alley with boys of his own age. -He never climbed a telegraph pole to wit ness the home team 'pedal the bags’’ for a winning game and could not have experienced the triumphant joy of chasing a foul ball outside the fence Durklieimer Building.

Hu Certified copy of pedigree sits in isolated ignorance of the great- ♦•st American institution—baseball. given with each purchase The absolute poverty of written lau- guage to express human emotions waa probably first exemplified when the paleozoic sporting writer with his stylus and his papyrus pad tried to de scribe the first cocoanut twirling game between the "Megatherium Mud Eat ers" and the "Megalosaurus Giants." Erum that time to this the language of sport has always been in advance of the ages. It has outstripped the clas sical ists. who are bound by rote and rule. The baseball writer, with his sleeves rolled up and his trusty type writer eating on a roll of paper, is a maker of language. His is nature’s own method. He gets close to his readers because he is sublimely free from ham pering grammatical form and his vo cabulary is evolved as he goes along. It weaves itself from the woof of en circling smoke from his malodorous pipe, and as he gayly sails out into the boundless realm of his red and green imagination he coyly picks the choicest ( Intario ««Hico : idioms and Hits from flower to flower in the glorious gardens of budding syn onym and blooming metaphor.
