TENNIS REVERTS
TO OLD STYLE
New American Break Ser
vice Being Abandoned for
Speed and Placing.

The service at the moment in lawn
tennis in England is undergoing q
noteworthy evolution. The influence OF
Brooks and of Americans like Hol-
combe Ward, so marked three or four
years ago, Is spending its force. A
study of the Frenchmen, Decugis and
Colbert, both of whom serve like the
late H. S MahOny, has initiated a rem
aiSSance for the deeply pitched service
OF varied and calculated direction
Even Brooks himself, one of the pio-
neers of the new style, is reverting to
the old style, and while retaining the
American and reverse services, now
employs more speed and less break.
The influence Of contemporary cham
pions on the game has always been
powerful, and to the student OF evo-
luton this return to the methods of
the old English school through an
agency of French players, who learned
their strokes st the hands of men like
DOherty and MahOny, IS at once in
teresting and suggestive
DiXOn's Case.
All this, however, does not mean
that the new" style viii be entirely
eliminated. Every phase through
which lawn tennis passes must bene-
fit the next stage. An illustration Of
this. dependent development is forth
coming in the case of c. P. Dixon At
an age when most players have grOoved
their style beyond change, Mr.. Dixon
has grated on to his old game many
and the colonies have exploited with
success. From this country he took
back the break service, and that de-
sire to attack at closer range which,
put into practice, has proved of meal
culable value.
Like the DObertys.
Yet Mr. Dixon, on adding to his ar
mOry of weapons. has not, it seems,
discarded or forgotten how to use those
baseline strokes which he learned in
early life. Nor, in the youeyinS does
he come as far forward as BrOokes or
the Americans His position is that
adopted by the Dohertys, by Mahony,
and by PIN. 1t invited less fatigue
than the rightin position and it has the
virtue of protecting the head from a
succession of lobs. Against orthodox
English driving, such as Mr. Ritchie
and the Germans employ. Mr.. Dixon
has found, as the DOhertys found, that
baseline excellence. combined with
cautious advance, will suffice.
French Stars Aggressive.
The French players, trained in a
most aggressive school, where the pace
OF the service requires the trickerOut /
to stand well behind the baseline. come |
further in, and il is here that Dixon |
unlike Doherty Cwho retired before |
the Frenchmen asserted themselves), |
may find his difficulty. For, unless /

JOHNSON CAN

There are four things that Jack
Johnson likes better than anything
else in the world. They are automo-
bile speeding. cooking, eating and
playing the bass violin. Of course,
he has some fancy for fighting, but
swapping punches is secondary with
the negro champion when the others
are taken into consideration.
Every one knows what a motor
fiend johnson is. His record for be-
ing ''pinched'' for speeding makes him
a worlds champion in that respect.

to the champion is TO invite a party of
his friends to his Wabash avenue

Bolts Again.

Wallace Batchelder, who has been
very conspicuous in Roosevelt's
interest in Vermont, opposes the
separate state ticket named at Bur-
lington Tuesday, and is again a
bolter-but doubtless remains a bull
moose still. Senator Dixon's selection
of Charles ii. Thompson of Brattle-
boro as the New England manager
of the Roosevelt campaign is noted
with some surprise, as e. w. Glib
son, of the same town, has been
much more prominent and efficient
in the coloners interest, and so has
Mr.. Batchelder. Mr.. Gibson has de-
clined to accept place ON the Pro-
gressives' state ticket, which fact
may or may not mean that he was
displeased at the outcome of the con-
vention at Burlington.

Wilson and Marshall /: Progress
sive Democracy.

There is no better progressive
movement than that formulated by
Governor Wilson. 1t represents the
Spirit of the Age. the Peoples
Rights, a Representative Democracy.
The whole sentiment of true pro-
gressivism has been exploited by The
Age for sc years.
What better plan ia there than for
true Democrats to vote and hustle
for Wilson,? What surer way can
all progressives find to secure their
aims than by voting for Wilson?
Roosevelt and his followers can
split the Republican party, but they
can not win. They can only make
more certain what is already certain
the election Of Wilson: Vote for
Wilson all who want the people to
rule. and justice secured for all

!, Save your pennies and send them
to the Hyde Park Savings Bank.
That Bank receives either pennies,
dimes or dollars.
Why
Because it wishes to encourage
the children to be frugal and to have
a little bank account OF their own,
even though the initial deposit is the
smallest possible sum.
Children who commence an
account on penny, nickel or a
dime, often grow into capitalists
later on.
The way to become a capitalist is
to commence now to save the
pennies.
