Yelle, who played hockey with Lou Ball Juniors in London this winter, was ordered to report in Cleveland last Tuesday. From there he flew south to where the Indians conduct their pre-season workouts. From reports received of Ray’s work last year at Batavia, he appears to be one of the best right hand prospects in many years. It is expected that he will be with the Reading, Pa., team, or a Pacific Coast league team. Batavia is a “D” team.

And every time I think of her, I remember one of her favourite sayings: “Early sow Early mow”. Many years have passed since Grandrha died. But just the other day something happened to remind me of that old motto of hers. I was working over my budget, trying not to admit what the figures told me: My savings had slipped. At this rate, it was a cinch that some of the things I’d started to save for would have to wait. Suddenly I remembered “Early sow ...” “Old-fashioned stuff!” I told myself. Then I got to thinking. “Maybe it is tough to save today. But it’s still important. „ . still my only hope of getting some of the things I want most, “Well, at least I’m keeping up my life insurance payments,” I thought. “That’s a way of saving which combines protection for my family as well. And maybe if I make an extra effort to put more money aside I’ll reach my goals sooner. “So here goes! I’ll try again. I’ll find some new ways to economize. Somehow I’m sure I can manage to be more thrifty.” And you know — it’s a funny thing! The moment I made that decision, I realized that Grandma’s idea was not old-fashioned. I’ve just caught up with her now!
