At the same time there arose a squawk in Africa that there was too much fraternizing between the Egyptian peasants and the Nile crocodiles. About the exact instant that the mollycoddle charge was filed against our national pastime, swimmers along the shore resorts indignantly hollered that the man- dieting sharks were extending a friendly fin in greeting and trying to get chummy with citizens. Just before the magnates belched about the baseball handshaking, Doc Cook and Ad Peary were observed playing philopena for a kiss.
