Why is IL the other clubs in the Ame-i-
can League can kick the stats out OF
Doc" Guy Harris White. resident Of the
District. and twirIer for the Chicago
White Sox. but the Nationals have not
won a game from him IN three years?
There Is no use denying that White is
clever. heady slabman. Re has lost much
OF his old-time speed. but his curves and
fine control invariably spell disaster VIXEN
Washington and Chicago are playing.
When Chicago was here two weeks ago
McAleer played his strongest card against
White. none other than the great Walter
johnson, but the lanky dentist had all
the best OF il. and Chicago hit johnson
hard enough TO win almost any game.
a close friend of Whites. in talking
with the writer yesterday. vouchsafed
some Interesting information. He said:
Have you noticed that in all OF the
games in which White has pitched this
year he has won more with Payne be-
hind the bat than when Billy Sullivan is
catching?"
The writer took occasion to look this
up. and found II 10 be true Whites
friend explained as follows:
When Payne is behind the bat Doc
gives his own signals. as PAYNE Is COM
paratively a newcomer 20 American
League baseball. but when Sullivan is
catching the latter gives the signals. and
Doc would never think OF crossing SuIlI-
van. White. with Payne behind the bat
does his own thinking, and shows that
he is possessed OF considerable gray
matter in outguessing the opposing bat
ters. When Sullivan IS doing the back
stop work. While allows the iatter's
judgment TO prevail, and in consequence
has lost number Of games
You've got to hand it to Doc White
He is not only some pitcher, but the
Official keeper of the Nationals goat.
Local fans viii be pleased to learn that
Clyde Milan IS back in the game once
more. He reported in Chicago yesterday
and will probably take up his old job in
center field.
This means that either Schaefer or Con-
roy will have TO warm the bench. and IT
looks like Conroy. as Sehaefer has been
hitting the ball hard ever since the Ma
tionals went West

Novel Way to Decorate
the Table

AvO mechanical achievement has
M ever opened up such unexplored
- realms of artistic possibilities, in
every field, as the attainment of fight.
The influence has already filtered down
through to such humble arts as hair
dressing and wall papering and table
trimming. Clever conceptions for table
decoration, that suggest aerial pleas
ures and voyages. are being carried
out in various particularly charming
fashions.
At recent dinner given for bride
and groom, who were supposed TO be
about to navigate the seventh heav-
a large toy aeropIane, which had been
painted white and hung above the cen
ter of the table. Sprays of white bri-
dal wreath-any small white flower
would serve-were twined about the
planes and at the wheel sat a tiny
wax Cupid. Narrow satin ribbons were
strung from this wheel to each place
and tied to the place cards. These
were in the form of large white butter
fly wings, splashed with gold, and so
bent that the wings seemed poised for
flight In the center of the table was
a low bowl of white roses and bridal
wreath. with here and there golden
butterfly lowering. If one does not
happen to be handy at such things,
instead of the white wings with their
touches of gold one may get a roll
of the crepe paper, which is covered
with gorgeous butterflies of all sizes
and coIors. BY cutting these out and
pasting on cards. one may have most
attractive place cards and winged
decorations.
Although the more elaborate table
decorations consist for the most part
of flowers in profusion, candelabra and
individual electric lamps or candles
with flower shades. for the small din
ner or luncheon or reception there is
nothing that may be used to so good
an advantage as ribbon. A most ar
tistic effect was secured at a luncheon
for six, by the use of a dull green
basket filled with pale pink moss roses.
Tied to the high handle of the basket
was wide bow of soft ribbon in one
of those blurred pastel effects in which
a dull green melted into faint pink
One end of the bow was carried across
to the corner of the table. and when
the table was set with the green and
gold banded china the effect was de-
Ightfully quaint.

PROSPECT IS GOOD
FOR Shoe FACTORY
Over Two-thirds of Necessary
Capital Raised for Industry
at Redwood City

Redwood City has now raised more
than two thirds of the amount required
for the location of a shoe factory at
that place, which is to have an annual
pay roll of more than ss5, 1000. While
the businessmen of Redwood City are
conservative in their methods, the
prompt response with which the appeal
for funds for the security Of the shoe
factory indicates that there is no lack
of public spirit.
In the present case there seems to be
no question as to the absolute certainty
of the investment.
Besides this factory Redwood has ar
ranged and has the promise of other
manufacturing plants, among them be-
ing pipe foundry, box works, mill and
lumber company. More than a mile
of spur tracks from the main line of
the Southern Pacific to the factory
sites has been built and upon it's com
pletion the factories themselves will be
constructed All this work has given
an added impetus to the real estate
market.

of City Presents Artistic Contri
buttons to Fashions Devotees

One of the most popular show spots
of the city is Chinatown at all seasons
of the year. On fete occasions it be-
comes particularly attractive, as it
puts on gorgeous appearance inside
and outside the stores. In the matter Of
decoration and display the Chinese are
ors and the harmony of pleasing tones.
The festival for Admission day and
in honor of the Native Sons and Daugh-
ters called out a patriotic expression
on the part of Chinese citizens surpass-
ing every previous effort.
San Francisco's Chinatown is one of
the most notable show places on the
American continent. Going into it is
almost like a trip to the orient itself
and few visitors depart from the city
The streets are filed with Chinese
stores, presenting every variety of i'm

He is well educated, speaks several
languages and has many friends among
Americans and Chinese alike. He leads
of the Chinese chamber of commerce
for two consecutive terms and is vice
president and general manager of the
Sing Chong company. Tourists never
fail to make large purchases at this
great oriental bazaar, which carries a
remarkable variety of oriental goods
from carved ivory to carved furniture,
and from China silk handkerchiefs to
the most gorgeously embroidered tapes

souvenir postcards in recognition of
their visit. Too Sin Ting is the assist

the company, Loo Koon Ting, resides in
Hongkong and is multimillionaire
The Canton bank was the first Chi

California, and it also has branches in
the principal cities of China and Japan
