THE QUILL THE SPY A LITERARY CORNER. DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE. We were nearing the field of the St. Louis baseball grounds when Fairfield, the big league hitter, was heard to say, Fm going to hit that ball to San Francisco today. Everyone stared at him as if he were out of his head, but he seemed sure that he would accomplish this feat. He was so sure of doing the imposs- ible that he bet with a num- ber of the players that he would fulfill his hasty prom- ise. The game began with a. de- cided air of stillness as the first ball was pitched and the fight was on. The out- come of the battle would de- cide for the year the cham- pionship team of our coun- try. The game progressed and promised tok be an exciting one for at the beginning of the ninth inning, the score stood 0 to 0. It was our turn at the bat and our last time to prove ourselves worthy of being the championship team. The heavy hitting batters were next in order to bat. But we were much troubled when two of the best hitters failed to hit the ball. The next bat- ter was Fairfleld and cheers arose when he went to the plate. We reminded him of his bet and told him it was time to prove it. The first two throws were strikes and after the last ball' had left the pitcher's hand we heard a resounding whack which mingled wonder and admira- tion in our hearts. The ball rose high in the air, sailed over the fence through the window of a passenger train, enroute tc San Francisco. The day was won and the impossible accomplished. HEART THROBS. My dear Editor: I am in trouble and come to you for advice. I have asked a Junior girl from our high school to go several places with me and she re- fuses me everytime. I have a nice car but still she re- fuses. What can I do in a case like this? I would like an answer immediately. Sincerely, Walter Elske. Dear Walter: It surely is a bad case'and I really do not know what I can do for you. I think this certian young lady friend of yours can not care very much for you. The Editor. My dear Editor: I am coming to you for ad- vice because my heart is al- most broken. One ofthe hand- somest young boys of the Ju- nior class Cat least I think he isj, took me to several so- cial gatherings and I had quite a liking for him. Now I found that my older sister has deliberately taken him away from me. How can I win him back? Sincerely, Ruth. Dear Ruth: I surely sympathize with you, but this certain young man must care more for your sister than he does for you. Forget him and look for an- other. The Editor. Dear Editors I cannot understand why I am failing in my studies. I do not study outside of school, but the work is so easy I do not think it necessary. What would you advise me to do? Sincerely, Joseph Rhodes. Dear Joseph: Since the work is so easy for you, why not take the grades the teachers give you and be satisfied? Possibly if you didn't study' at all you would be more successful. The Editor. POETS' CORNER.
