(Copyright, 1924 Casper Tribune.) W YORK, March 15.—Base bali fans who are getting anxious about the lively baseball and its ef- fect on the home run hitting of Babe Ruth and other sluggers, wil! be interested to know that today’s is not the first lively baseball that the great pastime has had. Away back n 1854, the gevr ing powers of the game decree the ball should weigh from | \_ co 6% ounces, anc be from 2% to 3% inches in diameter, By 1858 they bat done away with this marginal difference, fixing the specifications of the ball at 6% ounces in weight and 10% tnches in circumference. By that time, tt had begun to “have a heart” an inch and a half rubber center. In the seventies tt was a mighty lively ball, and resulted in scores ef more than 200 runs, From that it speedily dropped to what was known as the “dead” ball, Now the Hvely ball cycle is in again, Clarence Cone of Inwood says of the go'f ball controversy that the problem is whether the golf bal] to be used shall be selected for one per cent of all players, the fow experts who score regularly under 80, or the 99 per cent, the great army of play- ers whe are the support and life blood of the game. Cone calls attention td the fact that with the present ball the aver- ages in competition of the leafing payers in Great Britain, including Sarazen and Hagen, are all 73 or higher, and that at Inwood, the two leaders of the 350 players averaged 74. He concludes: “The present ball gives the average playera good shot, @ g00d hole or an occasional good round. It is taking a step backward to return to the lighter ball. Our golf legivlators should be guided by the welfare of the great majority and not that of a few experts.” F. Matthias Alexander claims that the trout’e with us is that we have lost constructive conscious control of the individual. He uses a sports example: “Any golfer whose mind is eter. nally Cistracted by the multiple dis- appearing instructions of tile Dour Scot instructor until his muscles were all cramped into rigidly and unusable. His swing resembled a fabled Indian war dance, and he occasionally hit the bail while both his feet wer? off the grovnd. This is characteristic of eivfiimtion not only on its golf courses but in its most intimate and necessary activ- Itles, individually and _ socially, whereas primitive and uncivilized peoples achieve @ satisfactory stand- are of sensory appreciation,” ‘There are many of our golfers who are desirous of establishing “constructive conscious contro!.” AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY HAY BE REFUSED CHANCE AT THE DAVIS CUP AS U. 5.

Good Business Good business is not just counting the prv- fits; because bad business has that same to be said of it; and often to exceed those of good business; but good business means more than profits, It means good-will, satisfaction, confidence, understanding, service, loyalty, co-opera- tion and consideration and many other re- quisities to make it a good, safe and pros- perous business. Good business is built upon those principles as corner stones, and trade is built up just in proportion to the stability and quality of the foundation. The Natrona Power Company has for the past six years been in the process of laying a firm and honest foundation upon which to erect a-concrete and substantial busi- ness; without the flaws apparent in struc- tures; built without consideration to the character or need of the-public.
