Member of the Scripps Northwest League of Newspapers Podltiahed Daily by The Star Publishing Oo Phowe Mam 9490 GREEN CORN—HOW TO EAT IT HE world is able to classify a man by two things —his table manners and the style of his hand baggage. For instance, if, in your travels, you en- counter an individual at a hotel who can cover his knife with mashed potatoes to the hilt and then get Jone Lirrut _ [ok Roastin] ye CAR MAKES ATH WHove ~e| WORLD KIM, WHAT? | — them off without injury to his tonsils, you imme- diately have this man’s social number. On the other hand, if he carries a canvas telescope or “knee knocker” reinforced by a part of his wife's clothes line, then you are also able to classify him properly. You may have an inkling of a man’s “bringing * up” by the tools he chooses in eating his pie, or by the manner in which he muffles his exhaust in eat- ing soup. Yet when it comes to green corn, every known rule is violated. STAR—SATURDAY, AUG, 21, 1915. you to get them out with your fingers. He also turnishes you with possibly a grape fruit or orange in the morning and expects you to keep your ears an with a paper napkin, There are recognized s of taking soup into the system and these ways all call for a limit to the noise zone. But when folks, even the most refined folks —folks that won’t even permit a poodle to sleep with them—start in on their boiled corn part of the menu, past precedents are thrown to the winds. The book of rules is consigned with all other eiquet to a warmer place and every man is con- tent to get his corn off the cob in the fastest and most convenient way in which he is able to operate. No, neighbor, we shall never have to worry about any styles relative to denuding the cob of its succulent kernels. We may have worried whether it is proper to remove jelly from the nose with a fork or a napkin, and it may have annoyed us a few to remember whether it is better form to sneeze under or over the table, but we shall never have to tax our brain on new rules for eating green corn from the cob, It is a catch-as-catch-can propo- sition and the hare-lipped farm hand is just as re- fined and just as mannerly at this delectable pur- suit as the guy who learned his table manners from a young woman's seminary.

W HAT are we to expect of the woman of 1920? In 1915 we have a high school girl, Miss Ruth McCabe of Tacoma, throwing a baseball 209 feet 5 inches; a woman trapshooter, Mrs. Harold Almert of Chicago, breaking 46 of 50 flying tar- gets; two.girl students of Tulane university, New Orleans, boxing for the championship of Louis- iana; Jacquline Thompson, an Evanston, IIL, girl, swimming 40 yards in 30 2-5 seconds. In 1915 we also have women in all parts of the country hurrying thru household work to get on the tennis courts, golf links and bathing beaches and traveling hundreds of miles to take part in an archery tournament. In all these events women competed against women, but In almost every other case the marks set were so close to the marks made by men, it is hard for any one, except an expert, to see much difference, Women are going in for outdoor sports more and more every year. This has been a banner summer, and each year women are getting nearer and nearer athletic records of men. So we ask about the woman of 1920: Will she stand at the traps and shoot in competition with men? Will she enter swimming races against men without fear of being outclassed? Will im- portant tournaments in golf and tennis be mixed instead of for men only? It should not be sur- prising. Entered at Penttle, Wash., postotfice ae second-class matter. WHY RUNNING MAKES US BREATHLESS EDITOR STAR—Wili you please tell me why | get out of breath when | run very fast? A LITTLE Boy. When Little-Boy-Who-Loses-His-Breath runs he throws a great deal of extra work on his heart, he uses up more air than when he walks, just as the engineer uses more steam when he speeds up his engine, and he sets his blood rushing quick- ly thru his lungs, where it helps itself to oxygen, an element of the air, without which the little boy nor no one else can live. When the blood flows fast the heart beats fast in order to pump it thru the body in a rush. This extra work makes the heart tired and it sends a warning to the brain that it’s working too hard—and that warning is short- ness of breath. No wise little boy or big boy either runs after he begins to pant for breath. WOULD REPLY F WE were at war with Japan, and the little brown feller swept us off the seas, and we asked Turkey to please stop Turkish shipment of munitions of war to Japan because the Jappy-Jap- Jap warships wouldn’t allow similar shipments to come to our land of the free, what would Turkey say to us? “Peace to you.

Unlike most political leaders, he is acclaimed a hero in his home town. Few popular idols overcome, in Mr. Castle's eyes, the financial sacrifice our nom- ination presages.
