"Apart from the far that we want to land a Jewish hitter we seem to have acquired a young first baseman who may startle the baseball world.

V MAHAN GIVEN HONOR OF BEING GREATEST Was Terror to Opposition Offen-sively and Defensively. During the many years football has been played at Harvard, names of hun-dreds of warriors have been Indelibly inscribed In the Crimson hall of foot-ball fume. Like other institutions of the sec-tion, Harvard was among the first to 1 m lOV.? ' J Jj Eddia Mahan. take up American college football and, although It has had its oil years, the Crimson has generally finished near the top and when defeated Its teams went down fighting. Harvard Is one of the pioneer In-stitutions' of football in the country and seldom overlooked whenever any-thing pertaining to the king of college sports is mentioned. In order to bring about this country-wid- e recog-nition and commendation, there must huve been something to make Har-vard so well known, and this some-thing waa the wonderful players who were members of fts team. Next to Yale, Harvard haa placed more men on teams than any other institution in the country. Some of Its heroes have been chosen for as many as four years, while many were selected for three. The name of Charley Paly, a won-derful quarter back placed on the team for three years, will live In Harvard's football history ua long aa the game Is played. During hla daya he waa one of the respected players on the Crimson team. Then there waa Cumnock, and many others, Including that wonderful kicker, Charley Brlckley. But when the achievements and abil-ity of thla galaxy of atara la carefully weighed, Eddie Mahan, the full back chosen for the teams of 1913, '14 and '15, la awarded the honor of being Harvard'a greatest football player. Eddie waa a terror to the opposition offensively and defensively. Aa a line plunger he ranka with the greatest In history, while hla atrong Interference had a lot to do with mak-ing galna of hla teammatea possible. Mahan waa of the type who aeldonf failed to make yardage necessary for a first down, and hla terrific driving power on alanta off the tackles made him hard to stop. Unlike a number of full backs, Mahan could run the ends a well a drive off the tackles or plunge Into the line. The Same Thing. ' When Mr. Wombat came home and announced that he would have to can-cel his vacation plans Mrs. Wombat demanded to know what was wrong, lie explained that he couldn't leave business. Whereat she was, to put It mildly, peeved. "You put aside a thousand dollars for this trip, didn't you?" "I did." "Here I am expecting a trip to the seashore. You've got the money. And now you say you can't leave business." "You take the $1,000," suggested Mr. Wombat calmly, "and buy some new clothes. Probably do you as much good ns a trip to the seashore."

When he weara It be cannot be aeen by human eyes. After Peter Gnome had put on thla robe he said to the other gnomes: "I am going today." They were all very much Interest-ed, for Peter Gnome had such a big calling Hat that no one knew where he might be going next, aod It was alwaya such fun to hear. "Are you going calling on girls or boys, or both?" they asked. "Or are you going calling on grown-ups?" they added. "Oh perhaps," suggested one gnome, "you're going to see aome animals or some of Mother Nature's children. "Do tell us, Peter Gnome." "I will," aald Peter Gnome. Then, aa Peter Gnome finished the laat touches upon hla costume he be-gan: "I'm going on many people, and I'm going to many homes. I have been talking lately to the Fairy Wondroua Secrets, and she baa been doing up aorae aecreta for ua. I am going to take some of thoae around with me aa I go "I don't know how many will want packagea of aecreta. Some may not need to be told any aecreta. Some may know them without being told them by me. Ah yea, aome may al-ready know the aecreta I have to take around." "Well, Peter Gnome," aald the other gnomes, "we shall let you go now, for the sooner you go the sooner will you be back. We are eager to hear what your aecreta are to be which you are to give to the people In these homea you are going to visit. "But we will not keep you by ask-ing questions. We see you are ready. Good-by- , Peter Gnome. Good luck, and may you be back aoon I" "Good by," cried Peter Gnome aa he atarted off, carrying within hla in-visible robe a big bundle In which were the packages of aecreta which had been wrapped up by the Fairy Won-drous Secreta and those who worked with her. Teter Gnome had quite a way to go, but he did not mind. He was eager for the Journey as he liked traveling, and he wondered about the visits he would have. At Inst he ar-rived at the first home he had planned to Visit. You see refer Gnome had once been hnrrylng over a city In his mnglc alr-ahl- p when he noticed all the hundreds and thousands of apartment houses, each of which held so many homes. "I'd like to go and see the people in all those homes," he said, "or at least as many of them aa I could. There are so many, many homes, and It does aeem so strange to think of all the people living In them. "Each apartment means a family oh, how many families there are! It doesn't seem as though I could believe there were that many unless I saw for myself." And so this visit of Peter Gnome's had been planned, and as he was plan-ning It he talked to the Fairy Won-drous Secrets, and together they ar- - 6ha Had Bean Doing Up Soma Secreta. ranged to have packages done up which would tell families the secrets of happiness, the delight ami the fun and the merriment and the games and the thoughtful little acta and all the nice things which could happen with-in a funiily. Peter Gnome vlalted apartment home after apartment home thla day In the big city and where he heard laughter and aaw unselfisbness, and saw how much fun some knew how to have In ao many wonderful and counties little ways, he did not leave any packages of aecreta. For In these homea they understood auch secrets. But where there waa quarreling, where famlllee did not 8eem to be able to enjoy each other, where they were always thinking that happiness came from outside and from others, and that It was not worth while to try to make each other happy, In those homes Peter Gnome dropped packages which opened aa they fell, anil which Tiled the air with secrets of happi-ness. And that night when Peter Gnome reached home and all waited to bear about bis visits lie said: ''Happy fam- Hies have such a good time that It does seem such a pity that f.imlllc) should quarrel and should keep from praising each oilier and should not be affectionate and kind, for they miss ao much this way. But I think the secret packages are going to change many things. "Ah, yes, I'm glad I went today."
