1 Playing the
Game
; By MINNIE M. TOWNSEND •
& 1*22, by MoClars Nswspapar Syudlcsts.
It was Saturday, the day of dtys to
the members of the Crane family. For
was not that the day when the local
high school team played football and
wasn’t their Jim one of the stars on
said team? As usual, Jim hurried off
directly after dinner to the athletic
Held, with many admonitions from
his mother not to get his neck broken,
and gay encouragement from his
father to "give ’em a couple of touch
downs today.” Sister Betty hustled
through her dessert to join a crowd
of gay high school rooters, resplend
ent In fluttering school colors. And
then Jim's father laid aside his newa-
papgy and went in quest of his over-
Mrs. Crane, still In morning house
dress, glanced up from the silver
ware she was polishing. ‘‘Going to
the game, Pa?”
“Wouldn’t miss It.” He hesitated a
moment, mid then asked In a casual
way: “Why don’t you come along, ton,
Ma?” He knew It was a useless ques
tion, and yet there uns on eager, wist
ful light In his eyes. To see Jim make
a touchdown, with mother in the
grandstand beside him, was a joy too
far-fetched to ever become a naallty
"Tome on. Ma. be a sport,” he «*n« xed
again, but Mm. Crane shook her head
carelessly. “I’ve got d«****ns of things
to do this afteruooa. Jin*

Another week paaaed aa usual, to
the red letter day. They did not no
tice that Ma was drested for the street
an unusual thing at noon, on n Satur
day. Sho hovered about them, rest
less, unbttsy Angers fairly aching to
tackle th? dinner dishes. Jim, 8r„
put on hM coot, fussed a bit with the
clothes brush, mumbled a careless
good-by and was off. He had not even
asked her to go along, and she sat
staring at the closed door, hot tears
of disappointment trickling down her
cheeks. She had dreamed of what he
would say when she replied to his us
ual question, “Sure I’ll go; waijt till I
get my hat.” He hadn’t even given
her a chance.
She wanted to sulk, and then she.
thought of the boyish lonesoineuess of
her big, bashful husband, and she
hurriedly slipped on her things, gave
a whimsical glance at the dlpner
dishes piled high, and set out
Following the crowd, she landed at
the fteld ami bought her ticket. She
'had no idea which were considered
the best seat*, but again she followed
the crowd out to the bleflcn^rs. She
tripped along as though always accus
tomed to this sort of thing, when. In
reality, her heart was pounding wild
ly and she wanted only to sink Into
a corner somewhere. She glanced up
into the sea of faces. A man arose
suddenly, eyes wide, unbelieving rec
ognition. turning presently into In
credulous delight, "Mary.” he called
softly.
Unbounded relief shot through her,
ami site smilingly wended her way up
to his aide.
She aettled herself as though lM>ru
to a footliall game, and smiled qula-
ftlralty up into bis astonished eyen.
Ibizrus of pretty things, years unsaid,
sairged to bte lips, but he only re
marked eagerly as the players rsn

What would you think if you taw
an advertisement like this: “Want
ed, a hundred thousand babies’*?
Or, it might be put poetically like
this: “Wanted, a nundred thous
and bits of sunshine, a hundred
thousand clean little new-born souls,
a hundred thousand reasons why u'
hundred thousand mothers are hap
py, a hundred thousand hopes for
the future, a hundred thousand
Americans-in-the-making” ?
We have recently put ■ out a new
policy. It is an endowment for
babies from ten days to one year,
and the men in the Field have
promised to sell one hundred thou
sand of them before the year is out.
The policy require s a saving of
twenty-five cents a week.
It is quite' evident to thinkers the
world over that young America
needs to be taught lessons and habits
of thrift. By starting a child in
this way and associating it from the
beginning with the idea of saving,
systematically setting the example
herself, a mother spares herself the
solution of many difficult problems
later. Money in this case is the least
saving, since thd unwise spending
of small coins often undermines
health and character. Then, at age
twenty the endowment matures, and
a fund is ready to help with the high
er education of the child, or to
guarantee a fair sta;t in life.
Ufothers, do you realise how great
and how blessed a trust is yours?
And do you appreciate the far-
rem King influence of small decisions
where another life is concerned ?
You may or may not be with , this
child of your* when he or she reoch
re the age of twenty, and you assy
or nay not ho there when full ms -
tttnly tells its story of awrress or
failure, hut the influence of your
•p.rtl and your teachinu will <ws*

SMALL BLAZE SUNDAY NIGHT
_ Very few Barnwell people knew
that the Hotel Diamond was endan
gered by fire Sunday night. About
10:30 o’clock several young men
were walking dotfrn Main Street and
smelled cloth burning. They re
ported the matter to the night police
man, Mr. John B. Ross, and an in-
•vstigation disclosed the fact that'the
bedding in the servant's room at the
hotel was on fire, the room being
filled with smoke. The blaxe was
lickley sulxfued without an alarm
ring given.

And thou the game was on. and fur
the time betas Crane. Hr . forgot his
dottiesti-' troubles ITie tram* were
well matched, anti fought gamely
through three arurelea* quarter*. The
Anal quarter started with a flourish,
and the vlaitlng team plowed
through the local team for a touch
down. They failed to kick the goal.
The score was six to nothing, and only
seven minute* left to play.
One. two three downs and then,
suddenly, out of an apparently solid
mass, slid the slim figure of Jim Crane.
The crowd arose to Its feet as though
hy a signal. The visitors seemed dazed
at the turn of affairs. One made a
frenzied grab at the boy, hut It only
served to wrench his shoulder. The
hall remained coddled against his iflde.
Amid a wild burst of applause. Jlmsey
carried the hall hack of the line. One
moment remained in which the hall
was kicked over successfully, and the
sgyre stood 7 to 6 in favor of the home
team. The whistle pealed shrilly.
They bore Jim home on stalwart
shoulders. Jim. 8r„ heard them talk
ing about his son aB the way home,
but he alone, with a heart bursting
with pride, had no one to confide in.
The supper table was merely an
adoration party composed of Betty’s
friends. One gay young miss turned
suddenly to Mrs. Crane and inquired
how she had llkerf the gante. Mrs.
Crane had laughed carelessly: “Ob, I
never go. dear; too many things to do
at home.”
The young lady In question stared
as only the modern young person csn.
“Yon don’t go? Why. mother never

Where Becky Sharp Lived.
Careful stuuems of Thackeray have
been amused at the identification of
the house of Becky Sharp with a little
house near Shepherd's market, a little
bouse, with only one window .on the
ground floor and an area. This is
contrary to the generally accepted
house In Curzon street. It measures
four stories and a bit. and, while it
Is very narrow, as compared with its
height, it has a certain distinction,
especially about the front door, which
wduld, no'doubt, appeal to Becky. “A
-ver.v-sniaTL comfortable house in Cttr-
zon-sfreet” was Thackeray’s descrip-
tion, and after that your true lover of
Thackeray will refuse to surrender to
anything near Shepherd’s market!—
