J. s. LOVE TO GO AFTER

WOULD SPEND $500 PER DAY
Coming OF The Americans Would
Give Hattiesburg Great Advertis-
ing in the Larger Cities.

If any sort of fair, liberal or reason
able proposition will have any effect
upon Manager Hughey Jennings, OF
the Detroit Americans, that aggrega-
ton of baseball stars will come to
Hattiesburg for practice during the
early spring.
A letter of inquiry from Manager
Jennings was received in the city
yesterday as told in The News and
turned over TO Mr.. ]. S. Love, of the
local board of directors, and last
night the proposition was taken up
with the Commercial Club with the
view of obtaining an official endorse.

osition which might be submitted to
the Americans.
Must Have Them.
In commenting upon this matter
yesterday afternoon, Mr.. Love said:
I'VE should get this team to prac-
tice in Hattiesburg by all means, and
1 consider that we are fortunate in
being given an opportunity to interest
them in. coming here for their prac-
tice games.
81 am confident that it would be a
paying proposition for the local asso-
citation, and We could well afford to
make any improvements on the park
: which Manager Jennings might sug-
gest. The fact of having one OF the
major league teams come to Hatties-
: burg for their practice games would
stimulate interest in baseball affairs,
and would give local fans an oppor'
tunity to see some of the big fellows
in action.
"T am reasonably certain that We
. are in position to make them a very
2 attractive proposition, in the way o.
] securing first-class hotel accommoda
tions at reduced rates, free use Of thu

could afford to equip bath rooms a

enlarge the grounds by removing tn,

For my part, am in favor of offer

tive. They would be here fully 8

SENATE MAY TRY
TO BLOCK HOOPER
BY NOT VOTING
Threats Being Made in Nashville To
Resort To Desperate Tactics To
Prevent Seating Hooper.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 22.-Threats
have been freely made in the last few
days by the more Jealous of the ad-
ministrationists that the seating of
Gov. .-elect B. w. Hooper would be
blocked by the expedient of the re-
fusal of the administration members
of the legislature to take part in the
joint session for the canvass of the
vote.
Under the provisions of the code,
the joint session to canvass the vote
must be made up of a constitutional
majority of the members of each
house of the general assembly, which
is twenty-five in the senate and sixty
six in the house. Should the admins
tration members of either house do
the "Hopkinsville, KY" stunt of the
last legislature, (Which was running
out of the state to prevent a
quorum) the vote could not be can
vassed at all. Though the law says
it shall be canvassed, there is no pen
atty provided for not doing so.
Or it is possible for the senate, hav-
ing majority of it's members of the
administration faction, to refuse to go
into a joint session to canvass the
vote and save the members of either
house the necessity of taking hike
to block the orderly process of the
legislative program.
. 1t is well known that many az
ministration supporters have put III
, considerable sums on the proposition
that Hooper twill not be seated" ant
the plan outlined is their last desper
ate stand to save their money.
Disappointed in their hope of ma
: jority on joint ballot, the administra
tion leaders are said to be in humo
to find an outlet for their disappoini
ment and look upon the possibility o
= keeping Hooper out of the governor
chair as fine piece of revenge.

Should the tactics named be resor
l. ed to, this would mean that Patterso
would hold the office of governor a

resign and in the absence of any othe

Polish New Shoes to Prevent Scars

From the Philadelphia Star.
Begin the care OF your new spring shoes
in the shoe shop. Insist on having your
glace kid shoes thoroughly polished with
oil paste before they are sent home. If
you wear them Just as they are out OF
the box you viii scratch them more in
a week than you would in a month If
they had been properly polished. Then.
unless you have polished wooden floors,
tell the dealer to put in circles in the
heels. These are little pieces OF metal
which prevent the unsightly run down
appearance.
The day you notice your heels getting

Buy two good shoe brushes, a box OF

to It that your shoes are cleaned. or at
least brushed every time you wear them.
You need not apply the polish oftener
than once a week, but then DO It thor

FOR THE SUMMER BABY.

From The Philadelphia Star.
A useful gift for the summer baby is
a cover for the baby carriage. The
modern mother keeps her child out of
doors all day long. and It is important
that there Is some sort OF protection from
files and mosquitoes.
Instead of the inartistio mosquito net

two yards wide-and cut either square OF
two yards and half long.

neatly. This binding may be sewed on
the machine, or brier stitched with q
delicate blue or pink.
Any width ribbon may be used FOR
binding. but the two.inch band on both
sides is more effective. Loops Of narrow
ribbon can be sewed 10 each corner with

HOW TO WEAR THE NEW HAT.
From the Philadelphia star.

From the Philadelphia Star.
A great deal Of becomingness lies In
the manner in which hats are worn.
The hat should be put on as soon as
the gown Is on. Don't wait until YOU
have put on your 1ewelry. your beads,
your earrings and your other fixtures
arrange your hat first and observe the
effect.
The chances are that by the time YOU
ore dressed your hat will have slid
back six inches. or, worse still, have
settled down over one ear. Better
know It in the privacy OF your cham
Der than TO go forth and have the world
Judge you by your hat.
The fringe upon your forehead must
be fluffy. If your hair is not banged
though most hair Is slightly banged
these days-you can resort to hairpIn
curls OF q tiny fringe. Better sew the
fEngs in the front OF your hat than
10 depend upon ha!rpins. You need
not take of your hat, and the fringe
viii show IN the most natural manner
If sewed in your hat.
Don't wear a veil with a small hat.
It interferes with the lashes and gives
the eyes hard and strained look.
Don't wear a colored veil, az least
not a purple one. The face takes on
the tone OF the veil always, and no
woman wants a face that is purple OF
blue or even brown. One can be REQ
onoiled 70 q Eilvery tone, but one doesn't
sigh % look green or gray.
When you put on your hat try %
see yourself as others see you, which Is
from all four points Of the compass.
Put on puffs and braids, earrings and
chains, couture ornaments and all other
head trimmings after the hat ia on.
Only IN that way can one look complete.
Few women know enough to match the
stock 90 the hat. yet just here lies
the completeness OF the ensemble. The
bow at the back OF the neck or the
pin which secures the stock Just at the
neck's nape should match the black
Of the hat.
