It is one thing o get in and play the game accord: § to my own ideas, and a different ing to set myself up as an au- ority. A youngster who wants te play st base—or anywhere else on the eam—must have the natural abllity. e must be able to play the chan- loal part of bascball with ease. ) A first baseman should be a left- hander, | This 1s not conceit because I am fleft-handed, but it s a clearly appar- ent fact that a left-handed man can andle first base more successfully than a right-hander. He has the en- Mre infleld “before” him, so to speak, ‘and does not have to make the turns that a right-handed player is often compelled to make. Of course, there bave been some brilllant first base- men who were right-handed, but they were brilliant in spite of this faot and not because of it. A first baseman must always make & specialty of handling thrown balls. He must be able to accept the throws of other players without regard to the man who may be coming down first base line from the plate at top speed. At the same time he must take the throw in such a way that he will be able to touch the bag and yet keep clear of the runner. The youngster can learn the pe- culfarities of players opposing him by close observaiion. Nearly every bat- ter has some manner of betraying himself. Few use the same style of bunting and hitting. 1 have found it good policy to play “ deep” when there is a pitcher work- dng who can be depended on to get to first ahead off a runner. Once I heard a manager say to a recruit who made a spectacular one-handed stab: | “Use both your hands—I signed ‘em both.” I should advise a first base- 'man to use both his hands in taking ruown until he has becdme absolute- y sure. A wide throw that gets away y mean a lost game, ' If you want to succeed at baseball llearn every detail of the game. It is B never-ceasing source of new prob- llems, new situations, new conditions. Jake Daubert. The process of figuring out a play hould become second nature te the ayer. i Cultivate the acqualntance of ex- jperienced players and listen to them carefully, Observe the rules of the game. Never bait-an umplre. Behave like a gentleman. Play hard to win and never give up. Keep regular hours, Let “booze” strictly alone. Don’t smoke to excess. Better not &t all Learn the inside of the game. Practice all you can. Browns Get Pitcher McGrainer. The New York American baseball club has turned over Pitcher Howard MoGrainer to the Bt. Louis Browns. oGrainer went south with the Yan- Wees and showed up well on the epring trip. Manager Chase asked (or ‘walvers on him, but St. Louls refused to waive. MoGrainer comes from the Parkersburg club of the Virginia Val- ley league. Star Pitchers Lose Out. So far the baseball season has mnot proved a rosy path for the star twir- lers of the big leagues. Mathewson, Johnson, Walsh, Ford, Coombs, and Brown lost thelr opening games. George Mullin is the only one of the star veterans who seems to have all of his old stuff. Games Are Too 8low. The games are dragging along too slow to sult the fans.

Will Begin Long Home Series on Next Thursday. Fred R. Coburn, of the Minneapolis this to say: “Next Thursday afternoon the Millers come home for another long stay on the home lot, and every member of local fandom is hoping and almost believing, that the champs will gain points on their rivals in the stand on their own stamping ground. Tough Luck and Hollow-eyed Defea t formed a partnership evidently to put the Millers on the toboggan for fair, but the team with true champion- ship ability, refuses to be shunted out of the running, no matter how thick the accidents and ill luck come. “First of all. it was the pitching staff, and now, with a fairly com- petent corps of hurlers, injuries and accidents have stepped in to help the other teams beat the Millers. At the present time Killifer is on the bench with a leg that is so sore it is hard for him to take a step; Clymer has been in bad shape, due to the fast pitch he stopped with his head at Louisville; Owens got a spitball on the foot in a recent game and has been limping ever since; Smith was spiked and is in only fair shape, while Faber, one of the new pitchers, was left at home in order to get into better condition. “In response to a telegram from Joe Cantillon, Clymer left for Kan- sas City last night and will get in- to the game today. The cripple team had Hub Dawson in center field in yesterday’s game, and Cly- mer is badly needed. He says he has recovered from the effects of the’ blow on the skull.” sporting Editor Tribune has Seeing the World.

JOE JACKSON MAKING GOOD Young/Recrult on Cleveland American Team s Hitting Ball Hard and Constantly. Napoleon Lajole has a rival on the Oleveland team. In the years gome by any time the fans commented upon his appearance at the plate, they wondered at hi gracefulness in. the fleld. ~But this year Lajofe isn't attracting all the at- tention. One Joe Jackson, a recruit, is divid- ing it with him. Much has been writ. ten about this young fellow. He came to the Naps at the tall end of the season, touted as few ball players have been. He proceeded to make good immediately. In the few weeks that he was a member of the Cleve 1 Joe Jackson. land team he made pitchers lock sor. ry. Apparently it didn't make a particle of difference whether they were right-handed or left, he hit the ball, And the pitcher has not yet been found who could make him look like a bush leaguer. For Jackson has been hitting. He clouted .364 in the first few days of this season, and so far he has been one of the two men on the Nap team who have played base- Lajole, of course, was the other. Jackson has been three years in baseball and has played in four dif- ferent leagues. In each organmization he led all hands in batting. He start- od with Greenville in the Carolina league and topped the fleld with a batting average of .346. With Savan- nah he led with .368 and with New Orleans he was the pacemaker with 864, Last year, with Cleveland, in 20 games he led the American league, beating out Cobb and Lajoie with 387 per cent. oporiing 109IP. As long as Mathewson and Ray- mond are in shape the New York Giants are not going to slide down any in the National league race. Ingerton is doing so much heavy ar- tillery work with the Boston team that Chance is beginning to think that it was a mistake to let the youngster go. In a recent game with Boston the Yankees scored four runs on four hits, and made four errors and eleven as- sists, winning the game 4 to 8, 4-11- “. Cunningham, the young second sacker with the Senators, is doing good work at the keystone bag and Mc- Aleer belleves that his worries are over for some time to come about that position. Jack O’Connor, former manager of the Browns, has just returned to St. Louls from Arizona where he has been for his health since last Febru- ary. . He is much better, but refuses to. talk baseball. A Philadelphia habit that Manhat- tan fans never acquired is that of giv- ing automobiles to players and man- agers. Within a year Horace Fogel, “Red” Dooin, “Connie” Mack and “Ed- die” Collins have been given automo- biles. Pitcher Mullin has a growth in his nose and has been told that an opera- tion will be necessary. He doesn't want to go under the knife lest his winning streak be broken. That's bet- ter than having his breathing streak broken. Japanese ball players show that the fubjects of the mikado will be formid- able opponents for Americans within a few years. With fewer advantages than the American high school boy, they put up & surprisingly good ar- ticle of hall. The Washington team does not think much of the pitching of Lefty Russell, the $12,000 pitcher Connie Mack has added to his staff this year. He was trounced easily by McAleer's men even though they were almost dis- rupted by injuries. Doubled Pointed.

F it is true (as those who make it their business to know, say it is) that American women have lesg halr than the women of other lands, then we are compelled tc ad- mire the cleverness with which they conceal this deficlency. One would naturally infer that a vairety of styles in hairdressing would be impossible to them, but this is not the case at all, By using switches, chignons, transformations and the many other devices of dealers in hair goods, all the pretty conceits in the changing fashions in coiffure are copled and our gentlewomen continue to look to- day demure, tomorrow vivacious; an- other day finds them with a stately coiffure and then again they effect simplicity. No doubt Cleopatra rung all the changes within her knowledge or invention in matters of dress to ald -her in earning the greatest trib- ute pald to her fhsoinations: “Age cannot wither, nor oustom stale, her infinite variety.” Just now we must concern our- selves with sulting our coiffures to both large and small hats. The new imports for midsummer are mora than large, one may almost call them enor- mous. The large hats require a coiffure designed to fill in the space under the brim next the face and head, otherwise they look grotesque and ~a AN~~~ URQUOISE is coming back. Just as surely as summer ap- proaches, it is as certain that we will have blue with us. It is the coolest of cool colors and its daintl- ness appeals always to the summer girl. A little trying, maybe, at this particular moment to hear of the great favor of turquoise, when we have already spent our substance on coral, coral and again coral. But nearly every one-else has done the same things and therein lies the trouble. We are yearning for some- thing different and it is difficult this WINNER OF GREAT OPERA PRIZE Prorrssor ZHararro WILLIAM Turquoise Again in Favor thelr beauty is wastéd.. The small hats require only enough hair visible about the face to frame it, but it is necessary to have a colffure under the hat, for the hat must be taken off. E The puffed chignon shown in the picture is woven in a long strip like that Yised for a “transformation.” This strip 'is drawn together at intervals leaving quite large spaces on the un- der side of the coiffure, which are covered by the puffs and curls on the outslde. These open spaces afford ventilation, and they also make it possible to arrange the chignon in a great variety of styles.

The touch of velvet near the face, matching the color of the eyes, has long been popular with the women who study their own good points, and this has been easy to manage in these however, the women of the smart set have taken to wearing flow- ers which carry out the color, too. Thére are pansies that are for the brown eyed girl, forget-me-nots for blue eyes and orchids for the maid with hazel eyes. The girl with gray e is the onmly one who has any trouble, for all she oan find to match her eyes is the hum- ble dusty miller leaf. Sometimes she fancies her .eyes, er, ‘are “gray blue” or “green 80 she varies her color scheme with orohids, mignonette or a "dull blue blossom. If she is quite con- her eyes are really she contents hersel? with the feeling of superiority arising there from and lets the jewels of her face sparkle unrivaled or wears the modest violet, which would never presume to resemble the eyes above them. ‘When natural blooms are not pro- curable the woman with an eye for flowers buys artificial ones of ‘the required tint. . Parisian ingenuity has gone one step further in this art and provides for its leaders of fashion real flowers dyed with chemical dyes in any de sired color or shade. Hardy flowers, such as camelias, carnations and all varieties whose stems are good absorbers, are placed in the liquid and allowed to stay there until exactly the right amount of color has been absorbed. To Keep Furs. Every housewife knows what a great worry furs and woolen gar-| ments are during the summer months, when moths are so ready to destroy any within their reach. Take a five gallon crock and after sunning and brushing the furs place them in a the crock, then cover with a heavy plece of wrapping paper Wwhich Is | glued fast to the crock, making it | absolutely air tight and there are no cracks or crevices for moths to enter. { This can be kept in a dry cellar all summer, or if you have no cellar or | clothes press get a large tin lid to fit the crock and make a cover of cretonne and use for a corner seat in any room, and save all worry over moths for the summer. Novel Breakfast Cap. The new nets, flowered in colors, are being turned into fetching break. fast caps for the girl who loves the picturesque. One of the mew modols has a deep Tam O'Shanter crown fitted {ntv a crinoline band an inch and & half wide covered with folds of gold tissue ribbon. Over each ear is draped a pointed Jabot effect of lace to match the net that fell to the shoulders and framed the face on each side like a sixteenth century headgear. Over each of these points was a single .pink rose or -a bunch of pink apple blossoms. Popular Trimming. Lace is one of the most popular trinmings on the new spring styles, being used on hats, frocks for any time of the day and even the suit of cloth, and of all the laces Irish is per- haps the favorite. Irish lace coped from Venetian de- signs is a new factor in the fashions, and has been widely taken up for the collar and ouft gets for either blouse or coat. TUB DRESSES FOR A DOLLAR Dainty Frocks In All Sorts of Designs Are Now Well Within the Reach of All. It is astonishing how many dainty frocks for the summer can be made these days setting the limit of penditures at $1, including the pat- terns and threads. : Never before have so many delicate designs been shown in inexpensive lawns and ginghams, and the busi- ness girl should begin now to make the smart little dresses which she will wear to the office during the coming summer. - Two things should be remembered. One is that much trimming of any sort detracts both from the cool ef- fect of the gown and makes it bad to launder; the second is that however dainty the very light materials are they are far less serviceable than a plaid or a plain buff or blue dr As to the question of expense, be- in with the pattern. Choose one of 6 new ones that are capable of being carried out in several different fash- fons, with or without the high walst line or with long or short sleeves and with or without yoke. Thus for 18 cents you will provide yourself with & pattern for several frocks. Next, a few yards of white mull and some {nexpensive lace will make broad collars and cuffs and a fichu or & dainty pointed yoke, all of which will serve as trimming, for your gowns. Then as to mncrhu Ginghams, plain ones, may be purchased as low a3 8 and 10 cents a yard. A good quality of lawn in dark colors is only & cent or two more in price. Coat Hanger. ‘When away trom home one very sel- dom thinks of taking a coat hanger along, but to prevent the coat from becoming creased and untidy looking by being thrown over the back of a chair an emergency coat hanger may be readily made. Roll a newspaper tightly and tle it in the middle with a stout cord, forming a loop to attach it to a hook or nail: This is better than throwing the coat limply in the nearest place, and .is contrived in a minute with the materials always at hand.
