He may not have a chance to become fully mecustomed to his surroundings or to get over his nervousness before he'is railroaded back to the bushes. The best way for a player to succeed i8 to b1y to forget that he is up in the big show and put his whole mind on the ball game. If he can fail to see the huge stands and the big crowd and just remomber that he is playing a game of ball and trying to do his part toward winning it he wiil surely suc- ceed if he has the ability. The player who is doing everything in his power to. win the ball game is the lad who catches the eye of the foxy manager. ‘One serious fault with many young players is that they think too much of their base hits. This is a natural fault, tor every player, old or young, likes to wailop the ball to some far territory, but the real manager is looking beyond that. He sees the fellow who can hit with no one on and two out and does t care for his style.

An interesting question for baseball fans to discuss during their leisure moments away from the ball grounds, 1 |is the reason for the failure—almost absolute—of two brothers success at the same time. This condi- tion is true of the majority of sports competitions, and only a few cases can be cited where brothers attained success together. T CRAWL STROKE THE FASTEST YET.

Owners of Ford automobiles in the four counties in this state controlled by the Elmer Automobile company are in an expectant mood and likely to be for a while, or until that $50 rebate is returned. Eleven hundred Ford automobiles were sold by the Elmer Automobile company in four counties of the state during the 1915 season. Regarding the rebate of $50 per car L. H. Elmer, of the Elmer Automo- bile company, said: “The plan de- vised by the Ford company provides for the payment of the rebates in chronological order, that is, the first purchaser of a 1915 car, a women in Texas, will be the first to receive the check. It follows that a big task con- fronts the company, so big. in fact, that few people stop to consider it. It required five weeks to sign the 308,213 individual checks, the total of 3| which was $15,410,650. The cost of the postage alone whs $6,164.26. Months were spent in perfection of the plan of distribution. The checks are all numbered in accordance witlr the purchase of the cars, for instance, purchaser’s order was, $49 the check would bear the same number. The checks came in sheets of five, and by a special device all were signed at the same time, a boy being handy to blot them. Ten thousand checks a day was the rate. Special envelopes were used. It will take about two weeks to mail all the checks. We i1 | have had many inquiries regarding the rebates, and within a short time everyone in ' our territory will have received his or Her rebate. And, of course, every ome is happy in the prospect of this half-century return.” The automobile buyer of today is a far different proposition than he was four yvears ago. It is a fact that per- sons buying cars now invariably know exactly what they want long before they approach a dealer and naturally 1 | selling automobiles has become a very much different business in the last 3|fe wyears. In the early days of the automobile industry few sales ap- s | proached the check book stage until the prosjective buyer had been given a ride and had been laboriously shown that the car would really run. These demonstrations were often long, systematic affairs and included comparative showing of different cars. buying an automobile in these days was an undertaking in which pur- chaser and salesman devoted a great deal of time and thought. In more recent years the demon- stration has played a steadily less important part. The reason is simple, Motor cars of today—that cars which have established themselves through service—do not have to be introduced to the buyers. Such cars are known and the prospective pur- chaser is aware of what he is buying long before he entefs the auto sales room.
