The American girl displays her re-
markable individuality in the distinc-
tive style in which she watts her fan.
The woman of each country indicates
the temperamental tendencies of her
race in her little acts and customs.
In no way is this more morked than
in the handling of fan. The trife
in the hands of the Japanese woman
dazzies the eye with the intricate
skill Of its little short waves and
quivers.
She Spanish woman. with her deep,
dangerous nature. fascinates with the
insidious fluctuations of her fan. With
charming vivacity the French woman
illustrates her words with graceful
gesticulations. The American girl
uses her fan with a charm all her own
and with the dexterity which eyinces
the master hand.
To manipulate fan properly is an
art. and is only to be acquired with
labor.
Handling the fan" is performed

"Upfurling the fan requires at

PLAYED FOOTBALL IN rain
Wyoming Seminary Was Too Much
for Local Foot Ball Players.
Lineup of Teams.

Wyoming seminary played all
around the High schol eleven at Ath-
letic Park yesterday afternoon. scor-
ing three touch downs with compara-
tive ease. The teams played in a
drenching rain, and the contest lacked
brillancy and snap. The boys rolled
around in the mud, and Scranton
seemed to lack the weight to go up
against such a strong eleven as the
seminary boys.
High school won the toss and took
the upper goal. In the kick off Wyom-
ing took the ball and steadily forced
it over the line for touchdown in a
few minutes. They failed to kick the
goal, however. Score, SO.
In the next kick off, Tropp sent the
ball in close proximity to the Wyo-
ming goal post, and seminary took it
and successfully carried it the full
with slight interference. The goal was
missed. Score, 1910.
In the next kick off Wyoming took
the ball at the twentyyard line, and
made a gain of ten yards. They again
forced the ball Scrantonward for over
25 yards and lost it on a tumble.
High school tried for a double pass
but failed. and seminary held them
back with comparative ease. After a
slight gain High school lost the ball
on foul interference.
The seminary boys failed to make a
gain and lost the ball to Scranton,
when Powell made a run of about
twenty yards, but was forced back
on u stolen ball. The first half ended
with the score 1910.
In the second half Wyoming took the
ball and kicked to High schools thir-
ty-tive yard line. The latter seemed to
be unable to hold their opponents and
Wyoming again forced the ball over
the line for a touchdown, but failed
on the goal. Score, 15-O. The line up
was as follows:
