In most of the large cities there is a peculiar practice in vogue at base ball games. At the end of every few innings some tired spectator, who has been wrestling with the hard side of a rough board seat, gets up and yells “Stretch!” A second after the entire crowd will be going through all the movements of a “stretch.' This isn't stretched.
