As for you figuring that 115 pounds is not enough for a baseball player be cause .you have read that managers prefer strapping six-footers, let me tell you a story. It goes back through the years to the decade^that was known as the glamorous nineties. ' Baseball was young then, a teeming, boisterous sport The ball was not en dowed with the elastic qualities of a later era, and when fences were built far from the home plate, a giant could seem needed to produce a batting average of .432. It Is a mark that never has been equaled since that sea son and has been beaten only once In the sixty recorded years of the sport Want to eeo the man who achieved It as well ae 243 hits, a record toward which not even the giant Hank Green berg may aspire? ' s No, I am not trying to kid you. That pale little fellow with the thin cheeks and the angular elbows folded across a narrow chest Is not the ba£ boy. This Is on the level, Ted, no matter what the boys at school may have told you. Wat? How could such a half pint rise to the heights when strapping pitchers and burly, far-ranging fielders rallied to defend against him? BARBER rack Prepara corn and bake. )n even.

We are using the old stand by, bacon, which you probably know responds so well to oven treatment, and as we have the oven hot for the corn, the bacon can be baked at the same time.

Possibly Instead we find a stalk of celery, some cottage cheese and anchovy paste. Whatever we use, we must not for get a little onion juice or chopped onions with mayonnaise, which holds the stuffing together. Another tomato salad can be made of small whole to matoes, skinned and chilled and served on lettuce leaves sprinkled with cheese and garnished with mayonnaise. The melons, which are very good just now, have been chilled for at least 24 hours. Choose your favorite kind.

See how ne gazes steaauy ai us while a knobby chin ceases moving and a wad' of chewing gum gets a moment’s rest “That’s easy," Wee Willie Keeler is saying. “I just hit ’em where they ain’t” Translated Into more elegant terms, Ted, this atom of a man scarcely big ger then than you are now, has ex plained the superiority of mind over matter. Blazing speed, ifluscles that co-ordinated with an atoyt, ever in spiring mind, made one of the smallest men In the history of baseball one of the greatest batters of all time. Along with John McGraw, another great little guy, Wee Willie changed the trend of the game, caused rules to be re vised. Their ability to tap the ball out of reach of the fleflders brought science Into a sport that had sub sisted on force. « Tbcy proved the worth of the bunt, the sacrifice, the hit-and- run play. Before their time a foul ball did not McGraw. count as a strike. Mc Graw and Keeler could stand at the plate and deliberately hit so many fouls that they wore down the strong est pitchers. The rule was changed. When they Joined the Immortal old Orioles they were such scrawny little guys that other players laughed and •aid that they should not be permitted to do anything more strengous than carry bats. They fought with frantic muscles, fiery tongues and quick brains. They never ceased trying, learn ing. Before long the fans were fight ing to get Into the parks to see them. For more than thirty years after that the greater little guy, McGraw, was to continue as one of the biggest men In the history of the game. Of course, that was long ago, Ted, but don’t let the boys at school tell you that similar th|ngy no longer can happen. Instead, when you return In the fall ask them about Little BUI Jobftton, or Cyril Walker or Bert Metzger or Morris Ely. ■ — ^ , - - utR i ifc"‘ i" ' r * * * Because the United States Polo as sociation Is determined to name an "All Amateur" team to play against England at Hurllngham In 1936 Coeil Smith, Elmer Boeseke, Rube WIIHama C HAISE longues and reclining chairs of different types are among the fascinating portable pieces of lawn furniture. These would be unwieldy In folding furniture so they become chairs on wheels, not wheeled chairs In the ordinary sense, for this term Is too closely allied with Invalidism. These modern pieces are for the hale aqd hearty rather than the Infirm or sickly. They are the essence of lawn uxury In chairs, especially when equipped with canopy awnings that form decorative hoods for the backs of the lounges. The shape of the chairs is so cleverly contrived that one scarcely realizes that the curved legs at the end of the chaise longue make just the right han dles by which to trundle the chair i. t about'from one spot ofibeauty b(P'«4*£ ] lawn to another, as the sunlight shifts or the fancy dictates. Unlike the us ual wheel chair, the novelty chair on wheels Is not pushed about from the back, but Is trundled about by lifting the wheellass foot, the light end, by the legs and, th^o pulling the lounge, or reclining chair, whichever you wish to call It, which rolls along easily on the rafher small wheels positioned un der the back. This is the heaviest part, and yet so well balanced la It on the wheels, that Its weight Is not realised as you trundle the reclining chair over the grass. Portable Chain The latest Innovation In these wicker lounges and chairs on wheels Is the awning top. This is attached to the slanting back which Is Invariably at one end of the piece of furniture, and not along one side as Is the case with sofas, love seats, and regulation lounges. In fact, the difference be tween the lounge and the chaise longues Is Immediately recognizable by the spelling. The "u" comes In a dif ferent place In the words.

And If she closes the town hquse to take up residence at a summer resort, she further' pk-otects and eases her mind about It, by putting It in a vault in her bank. This is a wise precaution, and costs veyy little. If there Is much sterling silver, and this Is the only kind that requires this locking after, It Is seldom left la a home. It would be costly In dol lars and cents to replace It, and many pieces would' probably be Impossible of replacement—such as family silver, and other articles of sentimental asso ciations. If the quantity of sterling Is little. It may be treasured all the more because of Its scarcity, plus Its asso ciations. So In both Instances It de serves to be well looked out for. Whether one puts the silver In the bank or not, and whether It Is sterling or good plated ware, cases to put the flatware pieces In are needed. Silver scratches when one piece rubs against another.

I. Barnabas the Man (Acts 4:36). His original uame was Joseph. When he became a Christian he was by the apostles renamed Barnabas;, which doubtless signifies the change from the old life to the new. This was a com mou custom, e. g., Simon to Peter and Saul to Paul. The name means “son of prophecy” or "son of exhortation and consolation." This shows not only the natur£Tnnl"'splrlt of Bgrnabas but indicates that he possessed a gift of hortatory preaching. II. Barnabas the Philanthropist (Acts 4:37). So fully had the divine love per meated the very being of Barnabas, that, seeing the need of his fellow believers, he sold his property and brought the money and laid It at the apostles’ feet. He was In no sense obliged to do this as- there was -no such binding law of a community of goods In the early Church. Prlvate'own- ershlp of property was recognized (Acts 5:4). ... III. Barnabas the Christian States man (Acts 9:26-30; 11:19-30). ■ 1. Befriended Saul (9:26, 27). After Saul’s conversion he came to Jerusa lem and tried to Join himself to the disciples, but they were* afraid of him Barnabas saw that Saul was really a converted man. Being a good man he could see there jvas good in Saul. To be able to Judge personality Is the first mark of a Christian statesman. 2. Sent to Antioch (Acts ll :22-24) Violent persecutions of the Church sent many disciples to the regions about the Mediterranean sea. As they went they preached the gospel and churches were established. The most consptcu ous of these was at Antioch, the capt^ tal of Syria, becoming the most im portant center In the spread of Chris tlanlty. Everything went well as long as the gospel was preached to the Jews only, but certain of these dis ciples deliberately preached Christ among the Creeks. They announced to them that God had become Incarnated in a man, that that man, after a min istry of love and grace, had died a sacrificial death on the cross, and that salvation was nqw offered to all whe would accept him. Tidings having reached the ears of the Jerusalem Church that a great work of grace was expressing itself through the Grecians who were preach Ing the Lord Jesus Christ at Antioch Barnabas was sent to look after It. Barnabas was a good man and full x>f the Holy Ghost and faith. He. there fore, had spiritual discernment and broad sympathy. Those who have grace In themselvea will be able to see grace In others. He exhorted them and urged them forward . In their work. . 3.’Goes after Saul (11:25, 26). The work at Antioch so prospered that help was needed; therefore, Barnabas went after Saul. Barnabas thus Introduced Saul to his great work aa the apostle to the Gentiles. The gifts of both of these men were needed on that field. Different temperamenta when brought Into harmony by God’H grace are deed ed In the church. 4. Disciples called Christiana first in Antioch (v. 26). After a year of teaching by Paul and Barnabas the name “Christian” was given to the disciples. Observe that the name was associated with the teaching. Paul taught the vital oneness of the be liever with Christ! therefore. It wga natural that the disciples should be called Christiana. The notion that the name “Christian" was given In de- rison has no factual basis. IV. Barnabas tha Dispenser of Alms (vv. 27-30). Because of the oneness of, Christians with Christ and'vvilh one another, the distress of the brethren at Jerusalem must be relieved by the: gifts of believers at Antioch, ^he Spirit of God, through Agabus, made known the coming dearth which was to prevail throughout all the world. The disciples were therefore* moved, according to their ability, to send re lief unto the brethren In Judea. These gifts had a powerful Effect ?n remov ing the sospicions of the brethren at Jerusalem.
