TWO OLD
TIMERS
OUT OF
PICTURE
Two ancient and honored members
of the major league pitching frater
nity were discharged from the big
show this week with the information
that their services were no longer re
quired.. They were Leslie Joseph
Bush and Stanley Coveleskie, the
noisiest and most subdued players
respectively, in the game.
Assuming that their major league
careers are ended, since club of both
leagues waived on their services,
baseball loses two right-handers who
have contributed a wealth of pitch
ing greatness to its archives. When
in his heyda yeach ranked with the
best of the past and present. But
they are gone, and, from now on
memory and the printed records will
have to serve.
Joe Push, besides having his en
viable record as a great pitcher.
could imitate more barnyard fowls
birds and beasts of the forest and all
domestic animals than any player in
baseball. With a peculiar rasping
voice, he could summon more whist
les, cackles, chirps, crowing, barking
and general outbursts of animal life
than any one could imagine.
Stanley Coveskie was just the op
posite temperament. If he ever said
more than two words at once during
his career no one seems to have heard
him. Silent, pensive and ever brood
ing this great Pole waded thru the
best years that baseball has known
and wound up with an enviable pitch
ing record. When he was with the
Senators they prided upon having the
three most silent men in baseball
Coveleskie, Ossie Bluege and Alex
Ferguson and the loudest, Bush.

THE VANISHED FLOWERS
In Honor of Mr. and Mrs.
Chris Beil.
Ah, when the stars are
shining.
And the sun has gone to
rest
Then think of your "Dear
Parents."
They are alone I guess.
Have their children grown
up, I wonder
Yes, they have, they've gone
out to roam
And left their "Dear Old
Parents"
Alone at home.
One is way out in Oregon
The place she calls her home.
Another is down in Kansas,
And she's down there all alone.
The rest are here in Nebraska
And one is here to stay
For Joe left his "Dear Old
Parents"
And they called it his part
ing day.
Nearly sixty years have
wandered
And there's two left in that
home.
They are your "Dear Parent's"
Children,
And they realize they're
alone.
They have striven and pon
dered for you
Worked and grieved, too;
Thinking that some day
'twould bring
A happy home to you.

MUST GET BETTER PRICES
Chicago, July 7. Men who under
stand the problem of agriculture as
well as the principles of banking are
needed in the financial institutions of
the nation, E. H. Thomson, president
of the federal intermediate credit
bank of Springfield, Mass., told the
American institution of co-operation
here today. Mr. Thomson said there
is need for a longer term credit ar
rangement for co-operatives under
certain conditions and that he looked
for development in the field cf agri
cultural credit, but he was not pre
pared to say whether the arrange
ment should take the form of longer
term mortgage credit on the amortiza
tion plan, or some other scheme.
Farmers today, however, he added,
need better prices for their products,
"some way of getting out of debt
than a way of increasing indebted
ness." Rosen Rye for Sale!
