WE DO OUR SPORTS, BY PROXY!
SUPPOSE WE TOOK OUR LOVE AND RELIGION AS
(cr n. u. j.
T IS an American national -weakness that meat ,of
us take our sports by proxy. Perhaps, there is a
change in progress in this regard, bet it is a slight
change as yet. Perhaps a few more men year by year
arc beginning to take an interest in actual participa
tion lr outdoor games, bat the leaven in the lump
lightens the dough comparatively little. Host men
confnt themselves with reading the sporting pages of
t.-.c newspapers and occasionally going to see a ball
time, and think of themselves the rest of their lives
as all around sports if they once saw a big league
championship battle. If the average man puts on tennis
aoes he feels like a college kid, and if he puts on a
tnu he feels like curving the ball around the block;
i ben he bowls he feels sure he conld land in -the
CO class in a few weeks with practice; if he gets on
gymnasium suit he feels like a coming Sandew; if
ne goes into the surf be feels certain he could beat
any Hawaiian vaaderillian if he conld only have a
in tie more experience; with boxing gloves on he dis
'Jains to remove his glasses because he is sure qf his old
guard; golf looks easy as rolling peanuts, when ob
served from the rustic seat at the sixth hole; football is "
only a matter qf tousled hair and padded shoulders, -and
anybody could push and shove, and trip a guy who
wasn't looking. Shooting why, that is nothing more
than a steady hand and a quick eye", and it takes both
to keep a set of books. That one lone fish caught with
the wrong fly and panned to a pathetic cinder over
coals of oak in the long ago furnishes inspiration for
a lifetime for imaginary excursions each year into the
big north woods, and the bit of venison bought of a
lone hunter when the deviled ham ran.o-it has furallhtd
at least 40 big bucks for cltib, stones' and 'it tote
bad all the antlers were burnt up in the fire in the
storage warehouse. Not long ago we read in a. maga
zine serious advice to New York flat dwellers .to get
all the joys of camping out by building a little fire in
the back "court" in a tin can punched with holes; and
broiling the steak the assurance was ,given that it
would have all the savor of the woods, and it conld
be done any evening between dusk and xdarlc Even
that plan beats reading about what some other fellow
has done to make life harder, more primitive, and more
delightful by sloughing off some starched. clothes and
civilization. ,
But the average American doesn't care to soil' his
fingers or put on heelless shoes or walk on dirt; he
contents himself and takes his sport, between the pink
sheet and the bleachers, and he wecld rather read
about a boxing match and get his heart all thtrmped
up with mental excitement than take any chance of
getting a swelled red nose from missing his guard in
a friendly bout on a hard floor; he would rather root
for the home team than chase horned toads around the
bases for himself, and it's more comfortable in the
shade on a July afternoon anyhow than it is over in
left field waiting for a comet to drop and blister your
maidenly palms.
The typical American way leads to nervous exercise
or even nervous exhaustion, but its physical benefit is
limited to the mere breathing of dgaret smoke-laden
outdoor air in lieu of the somewhat staler air of the
office, the chest expansion that comes from occasionally
letting out a yell, the voice culture that comes with
cussing the umpire, and the fight for a strap-hold on
the downtown car.
The Herald is making a deliberate effort through
its sport department to encourage more actual personal
participation in games and sports of all sorts. The
campaign, it is true, ought not to limit itself to boys
and men girb and women need the outdoor exercise
and recreation as much as the boys and men do. Bat
this development will perhaps come in time through
the general 'promotion of school sports and playground
activities.
There is a great work here before the public play
ground director. Much of his work will no doubt be
' wfth school pupils, but that ought to be only a small
part of his activities. Too much stress cannot be laid
on the importance of each individual taking part him
self or herself in legitimate outdoor games, sports, and
healthful exercise. Those who cannot learn anything
else or do not care to play games may at least be
taught bow to walk, and encouraged to go on climbs
and bikes, and to ride horseback.
Much might be said about the vane of organised
and supervised play, the importance of team work, the
training in orderly and intelligent group activity, that
comes through the application of modern methods to
the public playground plan. But after all, the first
and greatest thing is to induce people of all ages and
both sexes to get some actual personal physical benefit
out of their "sport" inclinations and not limit them
selves to sitting in automobiles or reading about what
other people are doing to keep themselves sound, nor
mal, clear headed, and "fit." This will be one of the
principal objects of The Herald's sport, recreation, and
outdoor life page and IB active cooperation of the out
doer loving public is invited in helping to make The
Herald's recreation department most serviceable to pro
mote real sport in every line. . - i
Welcome Maxwell, An Old Friend
JJtrt Monday night El Paso will entertain at dinner,
under the auspices of tie chamber of commerce, a dis
tinguished friend, George H. Maxwell. There ought to
be a record crowd, and the crowd ought to practiet a
cheer that will carry far. George H. Maxwell is one
of our folks, and be will be coming back home when
he lights here.
Aritona knows MaxweH even better than El Paso
knows him. But she cannot know him aBy more fa
vorably or appreciatively than El Paso knows him.
Memory is a fickle thing, and a hint has to be thrown
out sometimes to get people to turn back the leaves
to the right page. It is too much to say because no
body can be sure that Arizona would have had no
Roosevelt dam and the Rio Grande would have had no
$1WX,00O irrigation project if Maxwell hadn't happened
along when he did. But it is not too much to say that
Maxweir had a great deal to do with bringing both
projects into being.
So far as El Paso is concerned, Maxwell's chief con
tribution was this, in particular: In 1902 the national
reclamation act was passed. In 1903 the National
Irrigation congress me., at Ogden, Utah, El Paso
wanted the 1904 congress; but El Paso had no money
to send a big delegation so far from home. The plan
to send a large delegation had all but been abandoned,
when Maxwell, who was in Chicago, was asked to obtain
from the Santa Fe and Denver & Rio Grande railroads
transportation to Ogden for the delegation. He was
known as a great advocate of western development, and
he had friends among the railroad people.
Maxwell acted at once. He not only secured tickets
for the El Paso delegates, bat ou a second request he
even obtained tickets for the haad which the fetes""?
took along about. 60 round trip tickets ia all, JorJ
nearly 54000 in money, but worth perhaps $10000,000
to this valley in fact for it was that trip which brought
the National Irrigation congress here and made possible
the aiptomatk adjustment which .finally developed into
the great government project at Elephant Butte.
At Ogden and at every subsequent irrigation con
gress. Maxwell was El Paso's loyal friend. He is a
magnetic speaker and a man. as no ordinary power.
El Paso ought to rally Monday night to do haa honor.

"Cooking is a question that has a

eevry housewife's duty to be able to
properly prepare foods so that they

Antidotes For Curiosity
The Stenographer and the Bookkeeper Discuss the Nag

BY DOROTHV DIX.
"I

"where another martyr has gone
to his reward."
Who's that?" asked the Stenographer.
A man out west." replied the Book
keeper, "who did his humble best to

"What did the man do to win suen a
round of applause from you?" inquired
the Stenographer.
"The evidence at the murder trial
showed that he was married to a wife
-n ho was a human terror, and that he
ould not go to his dally work without
having her put him on the rack on his

f-at had happened during the day," re.
plied the Bookkeeper. "He testified
that the minute he pnt his foot on the

ihtsm that would go like this:
' 'What girls have you seen today?
" 'Who were they?-
'Were they pretty'"'
' 'Do you think they are as goqd

'Would you marry one of them if
I died"
'Would you commit suicide if I
.died"
"'If ou married again after I died
would jou love your second wife as
n.uch as 3 ou do me"
"The poor simp," murmured the
Stenographer sympathetically.

"Well." continued the Bookkeeper.
the unfortunate fellow stood it as long
as he could by trying to reply in a way

for wifey to go into hysterics, and so
one day he ended the domestic ciil
service examination by taking his gun
and blowing off the lid of the ques

lie got through answering her last kind
inquiries."
"That was no way to treat a lady."
said the Stenographer, "but I am will
ing to admit that as a discourager of
turiositj he was a headlmer.
And yet they hanged him for it,"
sorrowed the Bookkeeper. "I wonder
v h the poor gink didn't demand his
onsututional rights to be tried by a
iur of his peers a Jury of married

ould hae brought In that verdict"
What Drives 31 en to Drink.
"Do oa know what drives a man to

"Oh, I don't know," replied the
Stenographer, 'when it comes to want

only interrogation points Thre are
others, but the trouble is that men

"And tbe questions women ask their

"The lens we know the "less we" nave
