Etiquette Of Sports.

In regard to the etiquette Of sports,
nearly every outdoor recreation is
practiced under the guidance Of for
NAL rules that the fair minded sports
woman should scorn to neglect But
these rules must be supplemented by
certain minor niceties Of behavior that
are not laid down In the fixed regula-
lions. Courtesy and consideration for
others are the underlying principles In
every form Of etiquette, and nowhere
Is 1t more necessary than In outdoor
sports.
What woman cares to ride or drive

cares to play tennis or golf with per

And SO on through all Of the outdoor

Che
Outdoor
Girl
Playing Tennis.

Tennis, says the Woman's Home
Companion, is a game which requires
a great deal Of bodily activity and pro-
duces q quick heart action, and
quick heart action necessitates deep
breathing. Clothes which prevent deep
breathing prevent both proper playing
and keen enjoyment Of the game. In
other words, tight clothes should not
be worn. Corsets which are so long
as to impede free leg action are not
At for tennis, for girl cannot run well
without having free leg swing from the
hips. Boomers, a soft, unstarched duck
or flannel waist and skirt, wooden
stockings Ito prevent foot soreness) and
tennis shoes which At snugly without
being tight form the proper costume.
The other two handicaps, inferior
muscular development and slow nerv-
Gus reaction, can be avoided, II not
overcome Inferior muscular develop
ment Is inherent. But one Of the beau
ties Of tennis as a game Is that It can
be played without great strength. The
player who depends upon speed and
strength Of shot alone is almost sure Of
defeat at the hands Of the careful
''place shot" player-she who, without
either strength for smashes or great
speed Of bail, puts the returns where
they just can't be reached.
NERVOUS reaction time" means the
time which elapses between the will
to do anything and the doing Of 1t.
Players who are slow in the nervous
reaction time will start to run to get
to the ball they see coming over the
net a fraction Of second later than
those who have quick nervous re-
action time. The slow thinkers will
swing their racket at the ball too late,
often hitting at 1t after 1t has gone
by.
But nervous reaction time as applied
to tennis can be trained, just as the
muscles can be trained. And there is
no finer, quicker method Of training
than playing tennis with brick or
stone wall.
If you can get the use of the side Of
house with smooth ground near it
draw line three feet from the ground
on the wall, representing the net, and
proceed to "play the wall" Strive to
make the ball hit the wall above the
line. 1t will, of course, rebound to the
ground. Hit It again. Hit it reason
ably hard, so the return Is swift. Hit
It at various angles, so you have to
run after the return. 1t is astonishing
the improvement which few hours
of such practice will make in your
game because of the increased "nerv-
vOus reaction" speed.

BY GEOkGE fkANSlS hlNS.
Durham, N. C.-The twenty-second
annual session Of the North Carolina
Medical, Pharmaceutical and Dental
association. recently held in this city.
was a noteworthy event. The peril
nent features Of this meeting were the
papers by prominent members, which
revealed unusual preparation and quite
an exhaustive treatment Of the sub
jects claiming the attention Of the
members from every section Of the
state. In delivering the annual ad-
dress President r. 8. Hargraves, NJ.
D.. Of Wilson, made comprehensive
resume of peculiar conditions para
mount In the activities Of the men
identified with the movement and in
part said:
Wherever our men are found In suffi
cient numbers there should be formed To-
cal associations. There should be APP
pointed three commissioners-one on tu-
berculosis, pellagra and hookworm-to re-
port at the next annual meeting. This
report should be submitted to a similar
commission Of the National Medical asso-
ton to medical progress. which is incum-
bent upon US as members Of q progressive
profession. We should not be discour-
aged or despair because we are poor or
members Of young race or because we
have not a Rockefeller foundation to aid
in our investigation and research.
Vaccination, which checked the deadly
onslaught of smallpox upon the human
race, was given to US by a man unknown
save in his immediate community. The eff
ficacy Of nitrous ether as an anaesthetic
was demonstrated by a country doctor In
South Carolina three years before the ex-
perts in New England sent the news
broadcast to the world. There is no bar
rier to the intellect. It cannot be circum-
scribed by prejudice or legislation. Every
life Is lifted up or pulled down by the
power Of thought acting upon it.
DR.. ]. A. Kenny, resident physician
of Tuskegee institute and secretary Of
the national association, was present
and delivered an address.

body in the coming meeting Of the ma

Tennis is increasing in popularity.
Probably one reason for this is that
the girl who plays golf can seldom
dress the part attractively or retain
her trimness long upon the links If she
plays tolerably good game. Tennis
toys are distinctly fetching. The smart
tennis gown may be made Of one Of
the coarse linens that come in a doz-
en- natural shades. 1t may be of pique
or percale. of chambray, Of lawn or
even Of pongee. 1t Is cut low in the
neck and finished with a round or a
sailor collar Of white or some contrast
ing material. The sleeves come to the
elbow. The gown may be a one piece
affair, but ordinarily 1t has a sep
arate blouse and skirt. The blouse IL
generally cut on peasant lines. There
is patent arrangement by which
gore is set under the arm that gives
plenty Of play to that member. The
skirt Is cut moderately short for con.
venience
The gown illustrated here was of
pale blue linen trimmed with white.
The bodice was fastened at the left
with large buttons, which were con-
tinued on the panel on the front of
the skirt A sailor collar, closing in
point In front. and turned back cuffs
finished the blouse. A white chip hat
trimmed with plumes, rather more
elaborate chapeau than most tennis
girls choose, was worn with this frock.
The costume would be equally suitable
for walking, boating. croquet and golf.
In fact, it is a good all round outdoor
dress.

Outinq Hints.

Select comfortable shoes for noun
tain climbing and a serviceable but
lightweight skirt.
Don gloves for gardening and motor
ing, even If they do feel hot, for grub
by, blistered hands are never pretty
to look upon.
Keep the elbows from growing cal.

Select a comfortable, lightweight
shade hat that will shield the face for
outings, one that can be rolled up in
the trunk without damage and not DO
injured by rain or sun.
