ty-five cent fee for boys. The free list
is absolutely suspended. Season cou
pons will be good for admission only
when presented with book. Two cou

Put Up Great Game
The Cincinnati team on its present
eastern trip was a sensation until it
struck Philadelphia, where the Phil
lies set them back, but Charley Her
zog has his men fighting hard and he
Is building up a club that promises to
make trouble in another year. The
Reds have a great pitching staff. Her
zog has announced that he will make
his selections of pitchers from Dale,
Schneider, McKenery and Lear. King
Lear is a Cumberland Valley hoy and
a former Mercersburg and Princeton
twlrler. Several years ago he pitched
a game against the Highspire club for
the Harrisburg collegians.
Herzog started his professional base
ball career in the Tri-State League antf
went to the New York club from
Reading. He was a star with the New
York Giants and was released to as
sume the management of the Cincin
nati club. Killifer, one of the Reds'
outfielders is also well known in this
territory. In Griffith, a young out
fielder, the Reds have one of the best
hitters in the National League and
Wingo and Larke are a pair of high
class catchers.
Local Pitcher Unknown
Manager Zimmerman has given no
promises as to whom he will pitch
against the big leaguers. It matters
little for the International League
teams are ranked almost as high as
the majors and many Harrtsburg fans
feel that at least three of the Inter
national League clubs would make
great fights In either the National or
American Leagues.
Harrisburg fans will have their last
opportunity this week to turn out for
International League baseball and give
Eddie Zimmerman and his men their
best wishes for a two weeks road trip.
By their attendance during the re
mainder of the week the fans can em
phasize their support and eagerness to
have the club remain in this city next
season.
Friday will be Ladies' Day, and it
will also be a half holiday for the busi
ness men who will have a chance to
turn out and make it a monster after
noon on the Island. The Rochester
club will be the attraction on Friday
and will close the season locally with a
double-header on Saturday.

WHAT MATTERS IT ? ~
What matters it that all the skies
were dark.
And black the night, and tense?
With morning came the singing of the
lark
And joy for recompense:
What matters it that ever, day by
day,
Up rugged slopes we fare?
Do not Love's roses blossom by the
way
And sweeten all the air?
Life's pathway is a toilsome one, I
know.
Thick-strewn with many a thorn;
But oh, the Joyance of the noontide
glow
And rosy smile of morn!
Full oft the footsteps falter in the
road
And slacken near the goal.
But one clear bird song seems to lift
the head
And cheers the fainting soul.
And so what boots it though the
skies
And black the night, and tense,
Since morning brings the singing of
the lark
And joy for recompense?
One day of golden summer amply
pays
For winter's storm and sting;
One brief hour of pleasure well out
weighs
Long weeks of sorrowing!
—Richard Braunstein, in June Farm
and Home.

the film company for which she
worked in the movies that she would
have to learn how to dive backwards
from a sitting position, she had not
even learned how to swim.
"But I will get that dive," said she,
and being a girl of determination—
had she not been one she would
never have gained her present suc
cess in the business—she went down
to the tank at Brighton Baths, New
York and began to practice. With
the aid of a teacher she learned how i
to swim. She learned several 1 inds i
of dives.
Then she invented her "flop back.' 1 \

NEWSBOYS' DH IS

Big Crowds See Double-Header
With Toronto; Record Vic
tories Yesterday
This was "newsboys' day" at Island
Park. Reports from the sale of red
tickets indicate a successful event. A
part of the proceeds from the sale of
colored pasteboards goes to the news
hoys' association. The money will help
pay for furniture and equipment for
the new quarters in North Second
street.
The newsies were out in force yes
terday and to-day selling tickets.
They also planned to take In the
double-header between Harrisburg and
Toronto. A section on the right field
bleachers was reserved for the news
boys.
liill Clymer's Maple Leaves lost two
games yesterday, scores 7 to 3 and 1
to 0. Both were record victories for
local twirlers. Lee let Toronto down
in the first game with three hits, and
Smallwood, a recruit from the Blue
Ridge League, held Clymer's Colts to
two hits. In both games Harrisburg'u
fast fielding pace was a feature.
Smallwood had puzzling curves. The
Toronto sluggers almost broke their
hacks in reaching for the ball with
their sticks. The young twirler was
given the hearty support of the big
crowd of fans. Sensational fielding
spurts back of htm kept the crowd on
edge. The scores:
