TY COBB HAS GOOD CHANCE TO
EQUAL ANOTHER RECORD IN 1922
Ty Cobb, this season, will have a chance to equal another baseball record
that was expected to stand for all time.
/ Hans Wagner passed out of the National league In 1913. He left behind a
record of having batted .300 or better for 17 years.
Lajoie, for eleven years, kept Wagner company, but Larry fell by the way-
aide in 1907, when he was a point shy.
Cobb, the only player who figured to have a chance, has stuck to the ship.
For 16 years Cobb has been in the charmed circle.
If .he can hit .300 in 1922 he will have tied Wagner's record. During hlg
career Cobb's low mark was .320 in 1906, his first year as a .300 hitter.
There is every reason to believe that Cobb will not only equal but surpass
Wagner's record.
ROLLING FALL PROVES FATAL

YOST RAPS PRO GRID GAMES
Menace to College Sport as Athlete?
Are Unwilling to Play Game for
Its Own Sake.
Professional football Is a menace to
the college sport as it robs the game
of many .of Its greatest character
building qualities, Fielding H.. Yost,
for 20 years football coach at the
University of Michigan, said in an
address to the Michigan alumni of
New York city.
The professional sport, Coach Yost
said, tends to make the college play-
er unsatisfied to play the game for
Its own sake; robs the game of the
exhilarating Inspiration of achieve-
ment merely for achievement's sake,
*nd destroys ideals of generous ser-
vice, loynlty, sacrifice and whole-
hearted devotion to a cause which
nark the college player.
COACH BY MACHINERY

ANALYZE MISTAKES
TX7HEN you make a mistake, find
v" out why you made it. Think it
over a few minutes. Fix in your mind
tiie manner in which It happened. Be
ashamed of It, if it Is a bad mistake.
Scare yourself about It, if it is a
dangerous one.
The child never forgets the mistake
he makes when he puts his finger In
the fire. Tha^mistake he has to think
about for a long time afterward. One
of the. kind is always enough for
him.
Admiral Peary's Eskimo dogs made
the mistake of eating all that was
given them when they were encamped
In the Arctic regions waiting for one
of his dashes to the pole. Apparently
they remembered that mistake when
the food ran out and some of their
number had to be eaten.
When the survivors of the pack re-
turned to America they were very
sparing of the food that was given
theml and buried the remainder. More
than that they scoured the neighbor-
hood for food to bury. They had had
time to think over their mistakes.
Most people have much the same
sort of work to do every working day.
Those who do not think over their
mistakes continue to make them and
Something to
Think About
By F. A. WALKER
RESTRAIN YOUR SPEECH
TX7HEN Inclined to speak of a
** person's faults, though he or
she may be unfriendly towards you,
restrain yourself, and think of your
own shortcomings.
Then, if you are a charitable soul,
you will turn your conversation into
another channel where there are no
hidden dangers and go sailing under
dear skies in joyous sunshine.
One thoughtless, impulsive, slan-
derous word spoken in the presence
of others, and particularly in the hear-
ing of those given to gossip and dis-
posed to magnify what they hear,
may ruin an innocent man or woman
for life.
Clean your own house before you
set about the task of cleaning the
house of your neighbor.
Purge your own soul of shortcom-
ings and you will find' yourself so
busy in doing it that; you will not have
time nor inclination to discuss the
defects of others.
"Let him without sin," said the
Master of Men, "cast the first stone."
And the accusers of a hapless woman
stole away, one by one.
• * •
Your faults and my faults have come
down to us througli the ages.
So, let us always curb our speech,
wherever we may he and think noble
thoughts instead of the kind that de-
base others and ourselves as well.
Aside from the good policy of speak-
ing ho evil, there comes to the man
or woman who may adopt it, a divine
sense of serene happiness that cheers
our way like the stars of night.
And another thing that accompanies
such a course Is the ability to make
friends and hold them In all sorts of
weather.
for the most part they always stay
where they are.
Men who make the same mistakes
twice never get the confidence of an
employer.
Those who think about their mis-
takes, and find out ways to eliminate
them, are those who get along.
It is better to discover your own
mistakes than to wait for the boss to
discover them. Discover them early,
and you can do without them the
next time.
Go over your work. If It Is not up
to the mark that you ought to make,
you have either made Important mis-
takes, or wasted time, which In It-
self is an important mistake.
Think about that. Let it sink into
your soul. Think how it held your
work back, and what the repetition of
it will do to your life's work.
This may not contribute to your re-
pose the night you are thinking about
It, but It will make you sleep better
for many a night to come. Perfec-
tion is the absence of mistakes. We
cannot any of us achieve it, but we can
all achieve a pretty fair substitute by
cutting mistakes to the minimum.

THE FINGER NAIL8
f
WHEN the "moon at the root of
the finger nails shows a red
color of mixed shading, it is an indica-
tion of a combative nature, which de-
lights in contests of bodily strength
or mental agility. Note whether the
nail of the finger of Saturn, or second
finger, bears a white mark. This is
held by .some authorities to indicate
a voyage to be undertaken by the sub-
ject. If a nail shows black marks, it
Is an Indication of sorrow and trou-
ble. On the thumb nail the black
mark shows a faulty, passionate na-
ture. On the nail of the finger of
Mercury, the little finger, a white spot
means a successful business enter-
prise, and a black spot means the op-
posite, a reverse or disaster in busi-
ness.
If there Is a white, star-shrped mark
on the nail, It Is a sign of affection
that is not reciprocated, except when
the mark appears on the thumb nail,
when It means the opposite, or re-
quited affection.
Nails of medium length and width,
and of a bluish tint, show that the
circulation of the blood Is faulty, and
there is a tendency toward extreme
nervousness.

In lying down to sleep, in waking
and in motion, there come no regrets,
no torments to torture a guilty con-
science, no remorse that ages the
heart and drives the soul to despair.
If it did nothing else, this char-
itable observance would serve at least
to give you peace, make you great-
hearted and enable you at all times
to strike the nicest balance between
right and wrong, and to hold the re-
spect and love of the community in
which you live.
And after all is said and done, what
is there more to J>e desired in life
than the good will of neighbors, whose
hearts and hands are always warm
