"Been established eighty years, and never advertised." As he turned to leave, the traveler said : "Excuse me, but what is that building on the hill?" "Oh, that," said the grocer, "is the village church." "Been there long?" asked the traveler. "Yes," said the grocer, "three hundred years." "Well," replied the traveler, "they still ring the bell." - : f. n y Cha rm ing New A pron Has Square Neckline U pinafore apron (1888-B- ) pretty that it really deserves to be called a fashion a crisp, flattering, practical home fashion!

They state that the conference are on a basis. All unearned financial aid, ticept from relatives or others in a Jimilar position, is deemed not permissible unless it be in the form of Scholarships, loans or tuition remissions administered by properly con- university authorities."

And all the hitters he had to beat out were Napoleon Lajoie, Shoeless Joe Jackson, Tris Speaker, Eddie Collins, Nig Clarke, Sam Crawford, Bobby Veach and a flock of others who were shooting from .350 to .400. One year Joe Jackson hit .410 and Cobb still beat him out, with a far deader ball than they have had for the last 12 or 15 years. Here is a record 12 batting championships out of 13 consecutive major league play. That will never be approached again. Who was Cobb batting against? Only Walter Johnson, Big Ed Walsh, Nick Altrock, Addie Joss, Chief Bender, Colby Jack Coombs, Smoky Joe Wood, Doo White, Cy Young, Eddie Plank, Rube Waddell most of the great pitchers of all time. The Soft Spot I asked Ty what he thought the difference was between the and the present crop. "Stamina," Ty said. "I mean legs and arms. I've lived on my legs most of my life. As you may remember in 24 big league years I never spared my legs. I've played many a game with almost no skin on either thigh.
