I am happy to print tha beautiful little ong you requested some time ago, as several have responded to the request for It. THE BROKEN PINION I walked through the woodland meadows. Where sweet the rushes sang; And I found on a bed of mosses A bird with a broken wing: I healed Its wound, and each morning It sang Its old sweet strain. But the bird with tha broken pinion Never soared as high again. I found a young life broken By sin's seductive art; And, touched with a ChrUt-Uk- e pity, I took him to my heart. He lived with a noble purpose And struggled not in vain; But the life that sin had stricken Never soared as high again. But tha bird with tha broken pinion Kept another from the snare; And the life that sin had stricken Raised smother from despair. Each loss has Its compensation. There Is healing tor every pain; But tha bird with a broken Pinion Nevr soars as high again. To MART ELLEN, Sheridan, Ore. And now through tha kindness of an-other reader I am enabled to print th words to your aong and I am sura all the readers will enjoy It. THE COTTAGE BT THE SEA Childhood's days now pass before ma Forms and scenes of long ago, Like a dream they hover o'er me. Calm and bright aa evening glow Days that knew no shade of sorrow. When my young heart, pur and free Joyful hall'd each coming morrow ' In tha cottage by the sea. Fancy aees the rose-tre- es twining. Round the old and rustic door; And, below, the white beach shining. Where I gathered shells of yore; Hears my mother's gentle warning, Aa aha took me on her knee; And I feel again life's morning In the cottage by the aea. Dear Miss Brooks: I am enclosing one of the requested songs, and would like to have the song, "As your hair grows whiter."

Part of the story la this: A woman, of exquisite beauty, sat In a box seat by the stage. Her arms were ' full of beautiful roses. He. the violin-ist, sees her and falls In love with her. Aa then plays "The last Rose of Summer." He plays It ao beautifully that the sady In the box cries and says. "No! No! See, the world Is full of roses," and throws her rosea on the stage before the artist. On thorn clings to tha strings.

(By CARL LUNDGREN, , Baseball Coach, University of Illinois.) The pitcher should have more phy-sical ability than the average ball play-er. That Is, he must have strength, endurance and a good arm. Bis work requires from an hour and a half to two hours of hard going, while If he lets down for a second the opposing batters will soon find him an easy vic-tim. Probably the most 'essential re-quirement of a pitcher Is control, then comes, speed, curve, change of pace. By control we mean the ability to pitch the ball at the spot that Is de-sired at the time desired. After de-ciding where the ball should be pitched, it does not necessarily mean the ability of the pitcher to get the bull over the plate, but rather the abil-ity to pitch to a batter's weakness or away from the place where the batter hits the ball hard. The pitcher may not have a good curve ball or a good fast ball, but there are very few who cannot get control by hard work and practice. In warm-ing up never throw the ball In a hap-hazard fashion, but each time with a definite Idea of where you want the ball to go. The position of the pitcher In the box Is very Important. He should stand comfortably, with his body re-laxed, and take plenty of time In siring up the situation. There are many different forms of winding up In starting the delivery, Whatever the style there should be no useless swinging of the arms that will serve to tire the pitcher out. In be-ginning the delivery start the body and arm forwnrd together, bringing the arm with the ball as for as the shoulder, after which It Is brought forward wllh a hard snap and push. The elbow should be bent only very slightly when coming over the shoulder. The body should follow well through ns the ball Is being pitched, and the fielding position adopted at once. This enables the pitcher to start quickly for. a tilt ball which may come Into his territory. One very common mistake that pitch-ers make Is that they use their arm and not their body with the arm, Irr pitching. Absolute be-tween the body and arm Is necessary If the greateit amount of effectiveness Is to be reached. In pitching a fast ball, grip the ball with the first two fingers across the narrow part of the seam. This will give you a firm grip. Be careful not to crowd the ball toe far down Into the palm of the hand, but rather well out toward the end of the fingers. Then allow the ball to come off the end of the fingers with a hard snap of the wrist and fingers at the end of the arm motion. The curve ball Is thrown with ex-actly the same arm motion as the fast ball, the only difference being In the wrlHt and finish of the arm motion at the end. The ball may be held with the first two fingers, the long finger being along the seam of the ball or both fingers across the seam of the ball. The first part of the arm motlou Is started the same as for the fast ball, but the finish differs In that a hard drive down across the breast la made with his arm, giving the wrist a quick snap that causes the bull to re-volve. The axis of rotation of the ball should be perpendicular with the di-rection you want the ball to curve. Do not allow the ball to leave your hand too high over your shoulder, but rather drive down hard across the breast. To curve well, a curve ball should break from the waist down. ; Canadian Lacrosse ' J Tutors Are Wanted i t Intercollegiate lacrosse In the J , ' United States is a monopoly t t closed to. Canadians.

' L Wins Ninth Hole in Odd Style by Help of Wind Baseball produces more unusual sit-uations than any other sport, yet ev-ery now and then golf comes to the front with something out of the ordi-nary. An unusual prank of the wind caused a match at Plnehurst, N. C, to go to the twenty-firs- t hole before a decision was reached; otherwise It would have been over In the regulation eighteen. The match was between Ralph Sweet of BInghnmton, N. Y., and Wil-liam Hnger of Boselle, N. J. Hager's fourth shot for the ninth hole came to rest within a few Inches of the cup. It laid Sweet a dead stymie. A high wind was blowing ant', had played havoc with a number of shots. An argument arose as to whether linger should lift his ball and permit Sweet to play. Sweet was also on the green In four. Before the dispute was settled a sudden gust of wind blew Hager's ball Into the cup. The officials ruled that Hager holed out in four, which won the hole for him, otherwise It would have been halved. Winning the ninth hole In this extraordinary manner caused the two players to be all even at the end of the eighteenth, three extra holes being necessary before Sweet was re-turned the winner.
