Our friend Babe Ruth, tin world famed Bambino came alonj and everybody took an afternoon of to se? him knock a home run, whicl he did. He is a whale of a guy an< has a long bat, and for the exhibitioi games, a special kind of ball,,like thi one they used to play with when thej had a diamond down in the fla space where the Southern Depot non stands. Soime of the old timers, thos< just ahead of Lewis Russell and hi crpwd, <used to land on that kind o: a ball and drive it clear over thi Marshall house. The first time Bah came to the bat the Knights of Co lumbus, the 'Catholic society, gavi him a silver bat, which he accepte* gracefully while the movie machine clicked. Then he stepped up an< landed the first ball across for i home run over the left fieJd fence He evidently considered his day'; i- work done for the next two times h< t- came up he did a Casey?fanned ou e both times. It was some game, Nev York against Brooklyn, and I got t< t, se?e lots of the fellows who won undy iS ing fame in last year's World "seri ous."
