What Shall We Do With HORNSBY Is Take ’Em Off or Leave ‘Em On When the Women Appear—What Say? BY WANDA VON KETTLER Should a man wear his hat in an elevator when ladies are present, or should he not? ‘The question ix one which arouses much enthusiasm—both for and against. I discovered so yesterday, when waylaying a few of Seattle's business men, Beau Brummels and gallants, and putting the query to them. Some became riled and said: talk this over from a practi- tandpoint.” Others, riled in a nt way, waxed ¢loquent in if of women and condemned less gallant brothers, The first person accosted was George 8. Douglas, superintendent of the Metropolitan Bullding Co. Seemed to mo Mr, Douglas should have an opinion, considering that, besides being a man with @ hat he was also closely concerned with some 20 elevators in the downtown district. I was not mistaken, TOO MUCH ROOM “This eclevator-hat problem,’ de- clared Mr. Douglas, “has given me | much thought, Now, of course, we all want to do the right thing—and take off our hats when the occasion | demands. But in the business ele- vator, crowded generally, is it neces- | sary? It fs not. We have to con: | sider things practically, A hat in| the hand, when {it comes to space in an elevator, is worse than two on | the head, Certainly, women prefer plenty of room to crowded condi- | tions. Then hats on!’ NOW, WITH TOM REVELLE IT’S A SERIOUS OFFENSE | Weil, that argument seemed fair enough. But T. P. Revelle, U. & district aticrney, tipped the scales | heavily on the other side. Mr. Revelle stalked the floor of | his office, hands deep in his pocket: “It more than agitates me,” he declared, “when I see men failing | to remove their hats. A man should | ALWAYS remove his hat when in| the presence of a lady. Personally,” | he continued, “when in an elevator | I always hold my hat, just as tho} the girl in charge, or any other present, were the Queen of Eng- Jand.” Millard ‘T. Hartson, collector of customs, stated that in his opinion the drafty conditions as well as the lack of space in most business ele vators, should assist in deciding the | question. i “Consider the bald-heads,” he | “They take cold in the | | said. breeze. No, I do not think a man should remove his hat in a public elevator; tho in a ho- | tel I'think he should.” Hugo Kelley, secretary to the may- | or, enlarged upon the public build- | ing-hotel idea “For four years,” explained Mr. Kelley, “I was a trayeling man, and | traveling men have a set rule in regard to the matter. It is this: In public building elevators the hat | ig not removed, tho ladies be pres-| ent—because the elevator in this} case Js—well, public, like the street.| In hotels, because both the ladies and the gentlemen present are guests of the host, and therefore the condition Is social, the man removes his hat. T think this rule is a good one to follow.” ROOM ENOUGH LEFT FOR LITTLE COURTESY And THAT seemed all right, until along came Crawford White, attor: ney-at-law, He fairly exploded. “Bah he exclaimed, ‘a GEN- TLEM. takes off his hat in the presence of ladies at all times, A man who respects himself certainly respects ladies to thin extent. As for | the space which a hat takes up— well, we aren't wearing stove-pipes in Seattle. We've room for this much courtesy, at least.’’ I decided to ask on elevator girt for her opinion. In the lobby of the Central building a young woman sat at the Information desk. Until a short while age she had operated an elevator in that same building, Said I to her: “Do many men take off their hats in the elevators, or don’t they?’ “They don't, she replied, « hout how many do?" “About three out of 20.'" Jord as Walter Johnson. much. Of course, they notice it when a man is particularly cour. teous, Once in a while a man re moves his hat when @ strange wom an enters the car, then puts it on again when she gets off, Ho doesn’t bother about the elevator girl, That's sort of amusing, but the girls don’t mind. On the whole,’ she added good-naturedly, “we think man should do just as he pleases, and let his conscience be his guide HOMER BREW HAS DECIDED OPINION, TOO There was just one more person whom I wanted to ask about the sub- ject. 1 didn’t expect to get-any kind of an answer, but I thought I'd ask Just the same. “Homer, old thing,"’ said I to one H, Brew upon returning to the office, ‘Homer-what 46 you think? Should &@ man take off his hat in an elevator or should he not?’ “Absolutely,” returned Homer, whirling about in his chair. “He should not. It is positively ridicu- lous for a man to take off his hat at any timie—even when he goes to bed!" And the question persists, should a man RECORD FOR STRIKEOUTS WILL STAN {E modern strikeout record for a nineinning game ix 16, held Johnny Dundee and Jack Bernstein, | game he worked in. by the late George Edward Waddell, otherwise known as “Rube.” Back in 1884, Ramsey, pitching for Providence in the National league, whiffed 19, but conditions were quite different thon Waddell made his strikeout record a9 & member of the St. Louis club, a time when the “Rube” was re- garded as well nigh thru. Connie Mack, tired of Waddell, passed him on to Jimmy MeAleer at St. Louis. Shortly afterward the Rube took deep dark revenge at the expense of the Athletics, Sent aguinst his old teammates, Waddell struck out 16, establishing a modern whiff record for nine innings, No pitcher in recent years has had #0 many chances to break that rec. Had the Washington star been a pitcher who sought the limelight he probably would have turned the trick. With Johnson, however, winning the ball game always méant more than an individual record. There are two records which base. ball players think will stand for a long time. One of them is Babe Ruth's 59 home runs, the other Wad. dell's 16 strike outa, “With the lively bali now in use, to think of striking out 16 or more players is a joke,” says Walter | Johnson, “In these days, six strike-outs {is out of the ordinary,” says Grover Cleveland Alexander, “The lively ball and no freak pitching makes Waddell's record safe for some time,” opines Ed Walsh. WASHINGTON JINX BUSTED BY PENNOCK RBIE PENNOCK, former Bos- ton Red Sox pitcher, now a member of the New York Yankees, feels that he has already broken a long standing jinx with his new club behind him. When pitching for the Athetics and Boston, the Washington club was always poison to Pennock. Only once in five years did he score a victory over the Nationals, Usually he failed to last out the game, In his first start as a Yankee, Pen. nock was pitted against the Wabhing: ton club, He scored a decisive 7 to 1 victory, having no trouble in dix posing of his former jinx team, All of which makes Pennock be. lieve that he Js set for a big season, Only natives may own land in Java, foreigners being permitted to lease it for periods up to 76 yenrs, it won't.’” ‘Wonder if Billy Sunday talked to enny and Babe, f “Do the girls. think about it?" “No-00,' anything: was the reply, ‘not on condition half the area is ayall- able free for growing rice for the natives, 4 IN DIVORCE | COURT CASE) ST.
