LET THE GIRLS ROMP.
A WOman's Protest Against Restrict.
Ing Outdoor Games 10 Boys.

u want to enter a protest-a pro-
test against the unwritten theory
that girls should be brought up inside
Of four walls says a writer in the
New York Sun. "1Nhe trouble is in
the attitude of grown-up people. Why
do they not let little girls play out Of
doors as a matter of course? The
trouble is that when a girls love of
light and air and sunshine and the
sky is so strong that it won't be de-
MED, everybody talks about it.
Granddaughter shakes her head;
grandfather wags his, but in pleas
ed way, because the girl is full OF
love for the things he loved, TOO. But
he was allowed to love them uncon-
sciously and heaithy, as a matter of
course. The girl has to insist on her
right to the open air.
1.-THE consequence is that she ia
made self-cogscious. She gets intro
spective. She puzzles over herself.
She wants to play where and what
she pleases, and she wonders why this
simple desire sets the family by the
ears and the neighbors to whispering.
I'm 80 cases out of hundred little
girls intuition may be depended on.
She will have to be guided and train
ed like any child, but she will make
pretty good choice of plays. When
/ was a little girl, | always had a
knife. | played marbles, had top,
made kites and flew them, and played
DnII win increasing ler,Ur.
"Now, what | am trying to get at
is this: People make all this fuss
about little girls who play such
games. In the name of all that is
sound and healthful, why? The re-
suit is that such girl either gives
1t all up and settles down to books
and lack-lustre plays sacred to the
attention of little girls, or she over
does the matter out of blind, childish
defiance. Then everybody calls her a
tomboy, and all the complacent
mothers, of simpering, Cycling little
pocket editions of womanknd--never
mind mixed metaphors-are always
surprised that the tomboy turns out
womanly and dignifed and loveable.
"All of this, naturally, applies to
girls living in smaller towns. The I'M
fortunate children Of cities, boys as
well as girls, miss their birthrlght
Of outdoor life. But there are thou
sands and thousands of girls all over
the country who have as good right
to the woods, meadows, and the joys
mentioned in the rich gentleman's
will as the boys have. 1t is their right
to bask in the smiles of the good
brown earth, for the earth does smile
And 1t is their right to do this with
out being looked upon as queer or
ungirlish."

"Ill never leave a cent OF my money

"Why, its Aunt Comfort Dikeman"
she shreked; my dear, dear Aunt

And then ensued explanations, apol-
ogies, reproaches and tears, and Aunt
Comfort, resolved though she was to
disinherit Marian, relented at last.
"Well, l don't know that you were
very much to blame" she admitted;
"But it was very disagreeable."
"Dsagreeable!" echoed Mrs. Pom

Fred Tenney. the Boston first base
man, says: Pulling away from the
plate is perhaps the worst fault that
can handicap batsman, and it's so
hard to throttle this habit that many
players with good natural eye for
hitting have been spoiled by the ne,.
vousness and fear Of being hit. II a
batsman watches the ball closely on
an inshoot, for example, he can figure
on how much ground he has to break
in order to steer clear of slow ball,
or how far to duck his head out of
range Of high one on the Inside. But
when he becomes so ratified as to
shrink away back clear out of the box.
the pitchers will take advantage of his
weakness and will crowd him away
from the plate at every opportunity.
One of the best batsmen In the League
is Billy Hamilton, of the Bostons. He
can detect even to the fraction of an
inch whether the ball pitched is good
for a strike. He even figures closely
on the corners Of the plate and any
pitcher will tell you that he is one
of the hardest batsmen in the League
to fool"
