In Far Off Lands
In Far Off Lands to-day where lost paths run
A Little Boy looks up into God's sky
Through apple blossoms swaying in. the sun
That drift as summer southwinds whisper by;
And as lie looks upon his face there comes
The light that only fame's white dream can yield,
To him who hears far off the roll of drums,
The silver bugle calling to the field.
In Far Off Lands I see him take the path,
AVith outstretched hands that reach forth for his dream;
Unmindful of the dark—the tempest's wrath.
But on the hill and hollow —valo and stream.
Through all the bitterness and stress of years
That may not turn him back nor dim his faith,
Unknowing, as ho looks through mists and tears,
He follows but the phantom of a wraith.
I watch him leave the happy fields he knew,
The waving grasses and the wido, kind sky.
The harvest song that winds and echoes through
Lost summer days of sunshine drifting by;
The paths of faith and honesty and truth,
To follow through the mire of doubt and greed
And tangled ways that lead so far from youth,
That sent him forth to where his dream might lead
From Far Oft Lands that hold their place apart
.1 see him take the gray trail of the years—
Struggling and stumbling—weary, sick at heart.
Groping in blindness through the night of fears
With outstretched hands that still reach for a dream
That lureß and leads and beckons—yet still keeps
Dim in tho distance—as a light that streams
Beyond far vales where endless darkness creeps.
Nearer and nearer, from the throng apart
I see him fighting blindly In tho fray.
With mighty pity surging through my heart
That one should be so far from off the'way.
Ho far from that dim dream youth left behind,
With none to show the proper road to fare.
Until, with sudden start, I wake to find
Him whom I pitied sitting in my chair.
Stray Observations
"It is as easy to drive a ball over water as It is over land if you use your
imagination." Golf proverb. There Is one word out of gear In this sentence.
It should be "lose" in place of "use."
There is only one barrier against the Giants romping home for the next
National League championship. This is the fact that every one Is picking
them to do' Just this thing.
The golfer spends months and years learning the correct grip and the
correct stance and tho correct swing. Then the entire program vanishes in
the flash of a second as he lifts his head at the stroke. And then he begins
to work on a new grip and a new stance.
While Jess Willard Is waiting for some rival to come along. Doc. Time is
swinging for the jaw. When the final knockout comes some other will get the
credit, as tho Old Doc steps buck with a grin and a wink.
Add Fighting Machines
Dear Sir: You left out the greatest fighting machine of them all—pound
for pound and inch for inch —his name is Terrible Terry McGovem.
FIGHT FAN.
Pound for pound and Inch for inch, umpires, a few years ago, would have
awarded this laurel to John J. Evers, the Battling Trojan.
The Carolina 75
Sir: Here's a tip you can enter as a cinch. It is Joe Jackson's time to reach
the top this season, as he Is long overdue. He has an average for five or six
years above .360. He came back again last year after a slump, and If he
doesn't finish in front of Cobb and Speaker this time I'll eat his bat.
CAROLINA PETE.
Being overdue and always getting into port are not necessarily one and
the same thing.
"Hook"—Copy on "The rope," misplaced In tho rush for leaving for a
training camp. Keeping track of correspondence in the dash from one citadel
of sport to another i# no soft and pulpy assignment.

M'CORD'S FIVE
MEETS TRENTON
"Doc" Newman und League
Stars Will Play Here
Tomorrow Night

Ike McCord and his men havo made
an excellent record this season and
will work hard to put tho romatnlng
games on the schedule In the win col
umn. There will be no respite In the
practices and the Independents will
