IN A SPORTING KEY.

"Calesthenies and athletic sports are rap
idly increasing in popular favor" observed
member of the Turnverein yesterday. In
this respect St. Paul is well up in the van.
You will notice in the sporting columns of
the daily papers everywhere that the interest
is active. Records are being broken with
nearly every tournament. This fact leads
me to believe that the youth Of to-day is
vigorous, muscular and skillful composite,
and the present year has witnessed more as
tonishing feats than have been accomplished
in the same space OF time for q decade. June
1923 are the dates for our Turnfest. 1t will
be magnificent exposition of manly and
athletic pleasures, and | predict that many
of the previous Western records will DE
changed. There are 60) active gymnasts in
training for the different events, and they
comprise the flower of the West shall be
surprised if there are not fully 1000 strangers
in the city during the three days.
i
Billiard playing, too, has been given
healthy impetus the past few weeks. In
deed, the game. pronounced one of the most
fascinating and healthful in the catalogue,
had of late fallen into a sort OF decadence.
But since the celebrated expert, William
Hatley, located here. the spirit of the past
plenty of use. Every day Mr.. Hatiey accom-
modates the admiring devoIees of the sport
with an exhibition at Foleys billiard par
lors He willingly PLAYS the novice, as well
as the skilled manipulation of the cuo, award
ing a fair handicap. In the recent Chicago
tournament Mr.. Hatley ranked fourth, and
it must be confessed that the men who de-
feated him made phenomenal scores.

81 predict we will have the finest circuit
ever known in the Northwest" said Secre-
tary John Mccarthy, of the Lily Lake Driv-
ing club, ,at the Merchants yesterday. There
are more inquiries for entry blanks than ever
before, and they come from the owners of
Western horses'' Mr.. Mccarthy explained
that there is eminently more satisfaction in
this years arrangements than has been the
case in former years. The circuit consists of
seven towns-Winona, Rochester. st. Paul,
Minneapolis, saltwater. West Superior and

Some of the Reasons Why Young Women
Prefer the Shop to Domestic Service.

Some OF the Reasons Why Young Women
Prefer the Shop to Domestic Service.
Mrs. Helen Campbell has collected a
large number OF testimonials from
working girls in seeking for reasons
why young women prefer shops to do
nestle service, and finds these counts
against mistresses:
l. That mistrcsses do not know what
days work means and will seldom if
ever guarantee any payment for over
time or give any portion of the day alb
solutely free to the worker especially
in the position of child's nurse.
2. That comfortably warm and de-
Gently furnished room with separate
beds if two must occupy it, is almost
unknown, and decent appointments for
meals equally so.
3. That even where the servant is
willing to take less wages, the mistress
is seldom willing to have the heaviest
work arranged for; this meaning car
rying coal up many flights Of stairs,
scrubbing pavements, washing, etc.
4. That often livery is required,
thus setting the servant apart and
forcing her to take a social position
which most regard as degrading.
s. That there is seldom any place but
the kitchen for receiving visitors nor
any securing from espionage, whether
they are male or female.
8. The servant is often treated by the
mistress as if her place and work were
contemplate and children are allowed
to take the same attitude.
