COWl T1M, TOTTCRING
INTO NT.W JUXORDS
from that almost universal com
pendium of popular education, the
sporting page, we note that Tyrus
Raymond Cobb is still tottering
around the bases after 2u years of
sustained activity. This tempera
mental baseball player, who once
attempted to "heat up a Philadelphia
.spectator who hurled an "insulting"
remark at him from the bleachers,
has been expected to "slow down"
for ten years or mor", and perhaps
he has. He doesn't get around the
basts nearly as lust as he did in
his young days; doesn't, for in
stance, run from first to third on
an infield bunt so frequently, do- sn't
steal home from third vf ry inuih
while the pitehi r l- fondling the
ball, and doesn't make as many
home runs as Babe Itu'lu Maybe
the feet that he now is officially
managing a bain, whereas former
ly lie only managed the manag' r
has something to do with his la
meniaJVJe history of late years.
Toward the end of the Civil war,
when some busy bodies to.d I'reui
unt Lincoln that Genera! Grant
broke all V. C. T. C. rules and
regulations by drinking copious
quantities oi hard drink whin he
felt the temperamental urge within
him. the quiet head in the White
House quickly asked for t lie name
of the brand General Grant drank,
saying he wished to recommend if
lo his other generals.
So if Mr. Cobb has "slowed up,"
it can be recomm"nded to four
fifths of the remaining speed inar-
uds in 'he baseball business to
make a hurried attempt to gt as
i speedy as the decrepit old Georgian
slill happens to be.
The other day Tyrus Cobb
smashed five hoin runs m two
i days, breaking the inod'-rn world's
record; and he didn't have to be
very fast on the bases to get around
as the balls aeroplam d into an ad
joining county. Bu since that time,
i not wishing to stand still, ire versa -tile
Tyger manag' r knock' ,.i out
his 1 moth ex'ra base int. Hiereby

"The natural distaste for armed

the minds of men since the world

ed a strong desire to reduce arma

reduction in our naval strength. In
addition to this it has been found
necessary by our government lo
adopt a policy of strict economy in
expenditures. The army and navy
must, of course, bear their share in
this retrenchment. As a result nf
all this the materia! strength of the

1 politics bother the atata department
na It la bothered periodically by con
troversies over the "presentation"
0f American women at the royal
; court of St. James,
Matters In dispute between gov-
ernments can be argued, ad
justed, compromised. Trained men
; talk "them over rationally. There
are rules and precedents to go by.
Reason rules at least ome of the
i time.
I Reason has nothing to do with
being "presented" at court. The
American woman who wants to he
' prosentcd" Just wants to be "pre
sented" "because." The average
American can't possibly imagine how
a certain type does want to be "pro.
sented."
With a woman of that type It's
an obsession, a longing like the
longing of the confirmed dope (lend
for his favorile drug.
"Prosentcd," that woman has "ar
rived" socially. She can quit. For
jher death has no sting. She's ac-
omplished all things.
"Unpresented," her life has failed
-Ignomlnlously.
Other than American women may
i be this way, too.
I don't know. The
Americans are the ones I observed,
as a correspondent In London, where
tho "presentation" fight always Is
on at the United States embassy
w henever a "Court" is ahead.

Itation" must possess three qualifies-
