12 HAY FEVER TIME NOW NEAR AT HAND Sufferers Urged to Take Ad- vantage of Clinic to Find Just What Causes Trouble. Sufferers from fever and asthma in and around Washington— and their name is legion—are hereby reminded that the latter part of April the time of pellenation of the various grasses which these distressing diseases and that the time hay is inflict is at hand when preventive inocula- tion treatments ought to be under- taken Those who annually endure what are called “rose colds” should lose no time in arranging for these res, for different grasses to be the cause of nearly all so-called rose colds. Hun- dreds of sufferers have already ascer- | vet exhaustive | tained through simple, ekin and mucous membrane tests given at hay fever clinics just what one particular grass, tree or other member of the vegetable kingdom has caused the distress incident to hay fever and to asthma, which is usuall the result of the less severe com- plaint. Others have not yet singled out their nemesis, but patience and persistence and clinical tests will al- most always result both in finding the trouble and in giving relief. Clinic Is Maintained. The Emergency Hospital has for the past four vears maintained a well equipped and successful hay fever and asthma clinic, which is held on Mondays and Thursdays at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and those subject to these ailments are invited 10 avail themselves thereof. The hay-fever season caused by fine pollen of trees is already in full swing. Many persons who formerly endurcd torments at this time of year now find themselves immune. Each Year sees one or two hitherto un- suspected trees, often common ones, added to the list utilized in cures by hay-fever authorities. Of late years the pollens of such common trees as elm, oak, hickory, beech and have been found to cause all trouble with certain individuals. WOMAN ATHLETE URGE BAN ON GATE RECEIPTS ||| “Sports for Sport’s Sake!” Slogan of N. A. A. F.—Frown on Ex- ploitation of Stars. By the Assoclated Press CHICAGO, April 9.—Elimination of gate receipts and discouragement of emphasis on championships _were stressed in the discussions of the women's division of the National Ama- teur Athletic Federation of America, as it closed its second annual meeting. Miss Lillian Schoedler of New York, executive secretary, who in 1911 was a member of basket ball, base ball, hockey, track and other teams of Bar- nard College, was emphatic in oppo- sition to inferscholastic competition tn girls’ athletics. “I was one of the selfish few who kept the many out of athletics,” sald Miss Schoedler. “We want to get away from that sort of thing, and de- velop sports for all. The ajm is sports for sport's sake, and for the participants’ sake, not primarily for the amusement of the spectators or for the glorification of a few stars.” Assent was given to the idea that audiences should be restricted “to protect athletics from exploitation for the enjoyment of the spectator or for the athletic reputation or com- mercial advantage of any institution or organization.” Women Could Beat Some in Senate, in Couzens’ Opinion, By the Associated Pre ATLANTIC CITY, N. J, April 9.—It would not take extraordi- narily smart women to make bet- ter Senators than some of the men now occupying seats in the upper house, In the opinion of United States Senator James Couzens of Detroit, who is here with Mrs. Couzens and their daughter Betty. “It will not be long before women will be in the Semate in large numbers,” he said, “and it is up to the individual women as to how well she will make out. At present, she would-not have to be very bright to be better than some of the men now occupying seats. I can think of several clever women whom I would rather see In the Senate than men now there.” TALKS ON RACE PROBLEW. Magazine Editor Addresses Asso- ciation in Capital. Dr. W. E. B.
