LAWRENCE PILOT HAS OFFER FROM TEXAS LEAGUE Jack Flynn Will Probably With Eastern. Remain Jack Flynn, Jeader of the Lawrence team, who has made good in a man- agerial role after a splendid career as a player in major and Class A com- pany, has been offered a berth with a club ‘in the Texas league for next sea- son, but things are breaking so nice- Iy for nim in his post as head of the Lawrence team in the Eastern league thaz he will probably turn it down. The big fellow broke in as a pilof with the Springfield club last season and finished third. Just before the opening of the Eas- tern league in April he was induced to take charge of the defunct Lawrence cluy that went sg badly last in 1916 that it finished out of the circuit, the franchise being tnken over by the league. Jack put his nose on the srindstone, picked a plaver here and another there and right off the bat put Lawrente back on the map. The ¢club has been second most of the way. The runner-up berth has been clinch- ed, but New Haven with a club that would make a big noise in Class A company, has cinched the pennant, St. Louis 2, Athletics 1.

No other high-grade cigarette 'has so many un- changing, unswerving friends. This shows that men do appreciate cigarette- comfort. X For, comfort is perhaps the chief yeason for Fatima’s big popularity—comfort while you smoke, and better yet, after you smoke, even though you may smoke the whole day through. The Fatima Turkish blend is so carefully balanced that it has none of the after-effects of heavier, less skilfully blended tobaccos. That’s why Fatimas are comfortable (hence, sensible)—as your first package will prove. Cigarette ror. The Twelfth New York infantry atténded the wame.
