The great "I Am" man of baseball.
Arthur Charles Sliires, may go back
to the land of his forebears, Texas, a
full-fledged lawyer, and until he does
this he will be the "good" man of base
ball, he said in a philosophical mood.
Shires, who admitted that thirty-five
li "old" for baseball players, told
newspaper men he had purposely cap
italized on his record as baseball's
"bad" man, but that from now on he'll
be a good player and what is more his
conduct on the field and away will be
exemplary.
The Texan, now a member of thn
Milwaukee Brewers, said that law had
been his secret ambition for a number
of years. The fact that he has half a
dozen lawyer uncles bad something to
do with interesting him in a barris
ter's career, he said.

law," related the Wg blond first-sack-er.

HAND SIGNAL IS
VERYJESSENTIAL
Confusion Over Intention of
Driver Is Cause of Many
Accidents.
A motorist was rolling along Park
avenue In New York when a small
white-gloved hand shot out of the
window of the car directly ahead and
then disappeared.
"That woman is either going to go
straight ahead, turn to the right, or
turn to the left," said the motorist
"I wonder what she's going to do. I
had better keep In the rear until I
know."
Followed Recommendations.
And In keeping In the rear until
able to Interpret the sljmal, that mo
torist did what such safety agemiles
ns the National Conference on Street
and Highway Safety and the Sjlver
towfl Safety league recommend motor
ists to do.
There are almost ns ninny opinions
on the subject of motor vehicular hand
signals as there are authorities on the
subject of street and highway safety.
But all seem to be agreed that uni
formity of hand signals Is a desirable
thing.
Some communities have one signal
to Indicate that the car is about to
slow down or stop, another to Indi
cate a right-hand turn, another for
a left-hand turn and so on. But most
authorities are of the opinion that ono
signal Is enough and that such signal
Is simply a warning that something Is
going to happen.
Confusion Over Signals.
Confusion over hand signals Is a
common cause of minor, annoying ac
cidents. The Silvertown Safety league
which Is pledging motorists to drive
carefully, believes the recommenda
tions of the National Conference on
Street and Highway Safety to make
use of but one signal should be
adopted.

the most fascinating thing in the
world, next to baseball."
Connie Mack, discu.isinir the success
of baseball and its future, says:
"Baseball has become the greatest
mass entertainment in the world. It
has kept price faitii with the public
while other forms of amusement have
doubled and trebled. Baseball prices
have changed but Tittle in 30 years
and probably never will change. Twen
ty years ago double-deck stands and
80,000 crowds were undreamed of.
"Perhaps in the future we may have
fields on immense skyscrapers with
domed roofs to make the game play
able at all times despite the weather."
Work has been started In Paris,
France, upon the reconstruction of the
Palais des Sports, which Is designed
to imitate Madison Square Garden
of New York, and give the old world
an arena where every form of sport
and entertainment, from skating to
boxing and from dancing to rodeos,
will be produced. The structure will
contain three boxing arenas, the larg
est to seat l.'.OOO spectators, the me
dium sized one 9,000, and the smallest
1,000. It will cost $500,000 and will,

Miss Alice, black show horse, owned
by the Glenwild riding school, Was
nervous nnd apparently lonesome at
the Brockton fair grounds last fall, so
Clifford Pratt, owner of the horse, got
It riiilip, a goat, as n companion.
Since then the horse and goat have
been Inseparable friends.
Raymond Fitzserald, former out
fielder with the Cincinnati Reds, New
York Giants and more recently with
Bridgeport of the Kastern league, has
been purchased by the Kansas City

Fitzgerald, twenty-four, scored 118
runs last season and drove In 98. His
batting average was .322 and he field

Proficiency Needed in
Cleaning Spark Plugs
More than a quarter of a century
of cleaning snarb nines does not swom
to have encouraged much proficiency
In this branch of car care. Blast own
ers stfll use gasoline or kerosene to
help remove the carbon. Experience
demonstrates that either of these fluid
will leave a sticky film which adheres
to the porcelain. Alcohol Is preferable
for this work for the reason that It
evaporates. If there Isn't any alcohol
handy, Just use a little metar polish,
whteh contains a lar?e amount of
wood alcohol. Turn the plug upside
down, pour In the fluid and let It
stand a few minutes. Many motorists
also make the mistake of scraping the
porcelain usually with a knife. This
results In making the glazed part
rough.
Have Repair Mada
If the fuse in the lighting system.
of your car burns out, do not be satis
fied until the short circuit which
caused It has been located and repairs
made which will prevent Its future
occurrence. It Is not enough that put
ting in a new fuse restores the cir
cuit, for the defect which caused the
(irst fuse to blow Is probably still
present although the. conditions caus
ing It to establish a short may be tem
porarily absent The chances are that
they will again prevail ami very likely

How English Merchant
of 1480 Sought Custom
One of the eertiest posters ever
printed In England Is to be seen in
the Bodleian library, and concerns
a Sarum servtee boots, printed In 1480
by Caxtoa. It reads as follows: "If
It pleases any man splritnel or tem
pore! to bye ow pyes of two or three
commemoraetotts of Sallsburl Use,
emprynted after the form of this
preset letre, whiche ben wel and
truly correct, late hym come to Wwrt
monester Into the almonestrye at the
reed pole, and he shall have them good
and chepe." The manner of presenta
tion is somewhat unenterprising. The
goods advertised belonged to the Mid
dle ages, which were fast dying. But
a new force had been let loose, which
in the course of the next century was
to revolutionize not only the art of
advertising, but the whole of European
culture. .. j. '

potters In Staffordshire, England.

shaping pottery on the wheel. In 1753
he became manager of a small pottery.
In 1759 he began work on his own ac
count in the Ivy house pottery at Burs
lem. Salt glaze and green and yellow
glaze seem to have been his first sta-
! pies. However, the fine wjute English
i earthenware was Just reaching perfeo
! tion and Wedgewood became one of
i Its best known makers. He presented
I a service of his ware to Queen Char-
lotte in 17G2 and was appointed potter
' to the queen and later to the king. He
! next turned his attention to artistic
j pottery and reproduced designs based
