Bachelor Tax Bill Provides For State
Bureau For the Rashful.


Assemblyman John ]. Farrell of Mil
wausee. Wis, is at work on bill to
make bachelors marry after they reach
the age Of thirty or pay n penalty for
each years delay. How to provide suf-
ficient punishment for bachelors is the
stumbling block. This much is de
cided:
He viii make marriage easy for the
bashful and unacquainted. He will
provide for the establishment of a
state matrimonial bureau. at which
persons desiring to avoid the tax and
requiring aid may register. From this
list the bashful man may pick out a
lonely girl, and the fee will maintain
the bureau.
In the opinion of Assemblyman Far
rell some bachelors simply lack the
nerve to ask a woman to marry. This
nerve will be supplied through his
measure, he thinks.
1t is perhaps unnecessary to add that
MT. Farrell is married man.

W0MEN's PIE EATING CONTEST
Required by Rules Not to Use Knife

The latest fad among the women Of
Red Bank, n. J., is pie biting. 1t was
started by the Daughters of Liberty of
the Highlands and is spreading rapid
~ to other women's clubs and organi-
cations in Red Bank Several prizes
already offered and won by quick pie
eaters are handsome. and their pos
SCISSORS are exceedingly proud of them.
The fad threatens to put bridge whist
in second place.
1t is not an easy task which IS set
for the contestants. The plan is to get
big, juicy pie, preferably one filed
with blackberrieS or huclzleberries.
The pie is quartered, and the pieces
are placed on separate plates. At n
! prearranged signal four women begin
a race to see which can eat her piece
of pie first. What makes it particu-
larry exciting is the fact that no con-
| testant IS permitted to touch the pie
with her hand or with knife or fork.
She must do everything with her
mouth and nose. If the pie slips off
the plate she must push it back with
the tip of her nose and then tackle it
once more with her lips and teeth. BY
the time. she is through with 1t the

League Pioneer in
Adoption of Safe and Sane Rules

provide fund for shaping up for the
next race. Subscriptions are solicited
between seasons to meet the payment
of salaries far in excess of the returns
from games. AS rule, the president
and directors of clubs are baseball ig-
noramuses who interfere with the man
ager of their team. Individual own
ership is far more desirable, because 1t
provides experience, intelligence and
capital for the conduct of a club, fixes
responsibility and offers opportunity
for larger income from small in
vestment. Mismanagement has caus-
ed the collapse of many leagues and
the loss of many franchises. The
Three-Eye and the Tri-State leagues
have started an experiment that may
lead to the end of extravaganza in the
lower circuits. Carpenter and Sexton
are determined that the salary limit
of their respective leagues shall be
observed and success in these organi-
cations will lead to the adoption of a
safe and sane. policy by every league
